T-Down and S-holic, you guys gotta get up with it!...Wake up!...Your pitiful take on JB might as well have come from Beaver Cleaver and Eddie Haskell. Seriously, do you clowns really know ANYTHING about music, let alone American black music? Ray fucking Charles? The Boston Pops of Soul Music? Ever hear JB's version of "Georgia"? You'd change your opinion instantly if you did. Sure, and compare "What I Say" with "Say It Loud..." It's like the difference between Archie Moore and Muhammed Ali. Aw, you dumb ofays, just walk on...

your idiocy in musical knowledge almost matches your political views. Did you actually read my post? I said that james was king of his narrow slice of the music world, soul with a funk flavor, wearas Ray pwned all he touched.

Agreed. Dude was the king within his genre. Huge props to JB for parlaying and sustaining his career, largely based on his showmanship and his fans. Dude built a following. Did some copying, too. His "godfather of soul" came directly after the success of "The Godfather" movie.
Consider this: if Elvis hadn't died in 1977, would he and JB occupy the same type of path?
JB was not only a volcano of energy as a front man--unlike the smiling blind guy planted at the piano--but the Godfather also so completely stomped all over "the Genuis" in BALLAD singing that it's a joke. And when he rolled out Georgia, he knew he was stomping Ray's drawers.smackaholic wrote:your idiocy in musical knowledge almost matches your political views. Did you actually read my post?

But really, what's a "narrow slice" got to do with the Funk? JB's slice of the pie is about ninety-six percent. Who the fuck did Ray ever influence? He was the Boston Pops of safe R&B, an ambassador of hokey oldies, a Pepsi ad.

anyway? he's dead. He doesn't care. People want to say goodbye. You can't
say goodbye to a (as someone at dlisted put it) 'golden disney princess casket'.
Seeing is proof they're gone. Take Ken Lay. He was cremated. or Tupac.
Also cremated. Besides, open caskets are like public consummations of
marriage, only more dignified: both have a very long history, and exist for
a very understandable set of reasons. The open casket, like the public
consummation, is about the Community. There's a re-affirmation of the
ties within the community, and the cohesion of the community from top to
bottom, with an open casket that isn't there with a closed casket.
In my opinion.
If anyone (Schmeck) has any digital photos of the fog rolling in on the snow and the mountains and the valley, can you put them up? It's beautiful out here. I just wish people'd stop driving if they're not going to learn how to drive in this. And to the turquoise luxury car that tried to make like the Rapid Rides without the hind end, and ghost-jackknifed down an entire city block: fuck you.
