I'm certainly not the best person in the world to make a site about James
Brown. I'm too young and I'm french. But it seems that nobody else over the Internet was ready to do the job. So if there is a lot of mistakes and imperfections they will be corrected later.
If you want to help me, send me emails pictures and all the stuff you want
at s.farinaud@unimedia.fr

It seems that James Brown has three memories. I'm talking about Cliff White,
Harry Weinger and obviously Allan Leeds. I want to give them a special
thanks for their priceless works.

I want also to thanks Xombie and his fellows for their works and to
authorize me to reproduce a part of their Rap Sample FAQ.

The reproduction of the albums covers are done without authorization and are
the property of the differents records labels (I mean King, Smash, Polydor,
etc.)

Thanks to
:
Sweet Charles Cherrel, Maria Grandisky, Titchburn X, FF Gap, Eric
Pinel, Sue Hurring, Peter Jebsen, Harry Weinger  and all people who help me.
Richard W. Rinn and  Kiyosi Satou for their additional covers and tracks listings.


Of course, thanks to the "Godfather of Soul" : Jaaaaaaaaames Broowwn  !! and
to all the guys who had made the funk.
