Sad news this Christmas morn, Rest in Peace James.
Sad

R.I.P. James.
He was booked to perform in Prince George a few days after the Hip come through in a few weeks. A major influence in modern music, he will be missed.
He helped Rocky IV be the best Rocky movie of the series, Living in America.... But I Got You (I Feel Good), his most iconic song is one of the greatest songs of all time. He was a commanding performer as well. I remember the first day of Woodstock '99 being opened by a surprise performance by James Brown and he rocked out something fierce.

His legacy will live on in one of the greatest comedy/musicals/action movies ever made, The Blue Brothers 8)

Yeah, Rocky IV was waaaayyyy better than Rocky! :roll: :roll: :roll: Give your brain a shake
NMAS wants me to give my brain a shake. I would if not for everyone I know's fav Rocky film is Rocky IV. But NMAS must be a traditionalist living in a world where sequels are never better, that's cute.

That's even funnier than your first post!!!
I saw James Brown when he performed in Calgary around this time last year. It was one of the most energetic shows I've ever seen. That guy could dance better at 73 than I can at 23.
