James Brown: A Life from Beginning to End (Biographies of Musicians)

Hourly History
4.13/5 (114 ratings)
Discover the remarkable life of James Brown...

James Brown is known as the “Godfather of Soul”—and for good reason. All you have to do is listen to that signature James Brown sound, and you understand the impact he made on music. Just one lip curl and Elvis was sent running, just one, “Hey! Hey! Hey!” and Michael Jackson was inspired. It seems that James Brown’s every move has somehow made an impact on the world of music.

Yet the unbridled, almost manic energy that fueled Brown’s innovative songwriting, electrifying dance numbers, and relentless tour schedule also got him into trouble. A string of broken marriages, estranged children, and brushes with the law over back taxes, drugs, and even weapons and violence were all part of his story. This book uncovers both the musical and personal legacy of James Brown, from his humble beginnings in the poverty-stricken South during the Great Depression to his rapid rise to fame and fortune.

Discover a plethora of topics such as:
Early Life in Poverty
James Brown and His Famous Flames
The Death of His Son
From Bankruptcy to Blues Brother
Prison Time and Drug Abuse
Late Life and Death
And much more!
