James Brown, 1933-2006

Soul Brother No. 1, the Hardest Working Man in Show Business, the Godfather of Soul, Mr. Dynamite, Butane James -- by whatever name you knew him, James Brown was more than a mere icon, he was a pompadoured revolution in high-gloss shoes.

Brown died early Monday, at age 73. My appreciation of him runs Tuesday in The Courant. May he rest in peace.
