Watch Soul Deep: The Story Of James Brown on BBC2 NOW.
At least record it, you might get some understanding into your friend Lucasledge, but do it for the legend that is James Brown for he influenced almost all music since the 60s. Great, great funky man, you'll love his music if you listen.

I'm not I'm afraid. But in my eyes, the man was a genius and such a true, true legend. Really was the Godfather of Soul and has had such an influence on music of today.

He was no Hendrix in terms of the fact that he wasn't the best player of a certain instrument the world has ever seen. But he was at least as influential as him. It's actually very difficult to choose between the two. Both great, great artists and the world is richer for having had them.

It's not just about James Brown, there's a decent bit about Sly and The Family Stone as well as some funky George Clinton and P-funk.
Good luck frogy, hopefully there'll be more tribute programmes like this in the near future now JB's past away.

You watching Dudette? Good for you. I wish everyone was on here, I feel at lot o people on here just don't get me...... Nah thats not the case at all fella, but obviously people have different tastes. For example, with me, I am not really into the whole funk scene and thats why i've barely commented on James Brown or anything else associated with it because if i said something i didnt really understand about, i'd be doing people like you who love this kind of thing a diservice.

Yeah alright mate, I don't feel any differently about any of you. I appreciate you not wanting to do James Brown a disservice and thank you for it. I guess what I'm trying to say are a lot of people on here just doing understand a large part of my way of life. I'm OK with that I don't mind being different but it's also nice to have someone who understands what I'm on about. Keep it as funky as you like.

When someone mentions funk, they automaticly think 'Ah, Lucus'....how many people can instantly be thought of by one little word (apart from BWGH and twat ;D ) Although i do understand that its nice to feel on the same wavelength as others, no one can claim to be as much of a funk fan as yourself because you live and breath it which is fair play to you.
