    James Brown RIP

    Sad news,

    From Sunil Sharma, editor of DissidentVoice, definitely check out the
    YouTube video (link at the end of the following selection):


    "I don't really care what people think . . . I just do my own thing.... I
    like being loud and letting people know I'm there."

    -- James Brown (1933-2006)


    Editor's Note: For me, this holiday season took a terrible turn today. James
    Brown, the Godfather of Soul and funk, a stone cold genius and towering icon
    of American music, passed away this morning from congestive heart failure
    due to severe pneumonia. James Brown is one of my biggest musical
    influences. I last saw him perform at The Paramount in Oakland, CA in 2000.
    He and his band blew the opening act -- Tower of Power -- off the stage. At
    age 67, he was getting down and boogying like he was still in his 30s.
    Here's a great video clip of Brown that guitar maker Jim Soloway in Oregon
    brought to my attention: https://youtube.com/watch?v=PmbBMiwJMrc
