Legends: James Brown



This man needs no introduction.  The Godfather of Soul was instrumental in music history, influencing many genres and musicians alike.  Without this guy, there would be no Michael Jackson, Prince, or any other R&B, funk, disco, or rap artist.  Sam Cooke and Otis Redding might have been better singers, but they didn't have the complete package that James had.  A year ago at my friend's 30th birthday party, we played Mr. Brown's Greatest Hits straight through, and I can't remember a better time dancing to the soul great.  His music is truly timeless.


"Papa's Got a Brand New Bag (Original)"


"Mother Popcorn"


"Get Up (I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine)"


"It's Man's World"


"I Got You (I Feel Good)"
