I deeply am troubled by the many artist that say they owe their success to Mr. James Brown, but none besides Michael Jackson and Rev Hammer showed up to his funeral. I’m sure we will see them peddling their new cd’s on New Years Eve shows, but none could take the time to be seen at the Apollo, his private funeral, or public homecomming in Atlanta. Let’s remember that..the next time they utter how important James was to them, yet, it wasn’t worth the price of a plane ticket to demonstrate it in person

[...] Posted: Tuesday, December 26, 2006 10:50 AM by Will Femia Being out of reliable Internet range is like being bound in a sensory deprivation chamber. For the record, Web detox takes longer than five days. It was the possibility that I’d miss online audio collections in tribute to James Brown that knocked me off the wagon. If your local radio isn’t doing its civic duty with a James Brown tribute, I clicked WFMU’s tribute (actually the stream of a 2001 show) and also this collection of videos. Also Stereogum has a round-up of links. [...]

I apologize to my thousands of new visitors about that, it seems like you can’t take a nap these days without getting at least one new comment like that. If anyone has ever called you “ignorant”, at least you can take comfort in knowing that loldead’s comment affirms, if you happen to actually be an ignorant person, you haven’t cornered the market on ignorance.

Shouldn’t be a problem any more.

I can’t believe that someone with the brain capacity of “loludead” (see post #8, if it hasn’t been deleted yet), actually knows how to read, much less use a computer. And, sticking to the topic, James Brown influenced generations of musicians and musical genres. He had groove running through his veins. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform about ten years ago. Even then, I remember thinking how a man that old was dancing and entertaining more than the twenty something rock bands that I normally go see. I could tell that he truly loved what he was doing. There was no pretense and no posturing, just James.

[...] Incluso entre las curiosidades una canciÃ³n llamada Christmas in Heaven, ‘parecÃa que el ya sabia’, como lo cuenta Andrew Tonkin en BoingBoing. [...]

I was about to delete that comment because it has nothing to do with James Brown and “Robert” could have sent me an email. Instead, I’ll leave it to demonstrate that I’m not inconsiderate enough not to feel sorry for him, for he knows not what he says.

the “Um, Dude… Firefox” thing that popped up when I came to your site is thoughtless and rude, and moves me to never bother with Firefox. You’re fooling yourself to think it’s anymore safe, secure, or independent that any other browser.

[...] Many tributes and obituaries are being written this Christmas Day. I have his â€œJames Brownâ€™s Funky Christmasâ€ going this a.m. On it is a song he recorded probably back in the Sixties titled, â€œChristmas in Heaven.â€ I hope James is happy up there because we sure miss him down here. He’s got Soul… and he’s super-baddddd! [...]
