r.i.p.

funny thing is, he got sampled so much he could probably have retired and lived off all his royalty cheques from everyone elses music. But he kept doin it for the love.

word! he was one of the reasons i started making music, an absolute legend and his music will be there for future generations to rediscover, his influence is huge and many artists simply wouldn't be here without his grooves and pure creative force, his presence will be missed.

The Hardest working man and the Godfather of soul is now resting.

The first 45 I obtained was Funky President & Cold blooded on the polydor lable and some of the first funk and Soul tunes to grace my ears came from his soulful screams and demands that Fred Take him Higher. Thanks you James, even till the end you were still doin' what you loved. With all these great soul and funk artist getting older we must appreciate them while there here, so support them and let them know the youth loves them too.

RIP JAMES

Here are some Great proformances.
