Godfather of Soul dies Christmas Day
One of Michael Jacksons greatest influences, James Brown "The Godfather of Soul" died on December 25th 2006. I only read about it today. Cause of death was heart failure bought on by pneumonia
Michael used to immitate some of James Brown moves when he was young and can be seen doing so in some Mowtown audition film footage.
James Brown was simply amazing, even this year 2006 he was doing his Seven Decades Of Funk World Tour, an amazing performer even in his 70s.
Michael Jackson released the following statement regarding his death:
"I am extremely shocked and saddened by the death of my mentor and friend, James Brown. Words cannot adequately express the love and respect that I will always have for Mr. Brown. There has not been, and will never be another like him. He is irreplaceable.
I send my love and heartfelt condolences to his family."
