Rest In Peace Father Brown

James Brown died earlier today on Christmas Day at a hospital in Atlanta. He was 73. The Telegraph reported that he was brought to a hospital because of pneumonia and his cause of death has not been confirmed. He was often recognised as the Godfather of Soul, and had an influence on other genres like rap, disco and RnB. The man had a troubled personal life, at times behaving rather badly (a notable example was when he engaged in a car chase with the police) but he was very much the swell entertainer with his indomitable style and colourful outfits together with his famous 'shifty feet' vigorous dance moves. Along with his super funky music and his blackest black bouffant hairdo, I will fondly remember him for that raspy expletive Woooow! in one of his signature songs, I feel Good.

Doesn't he make you want to sing along?
