James Brown

Ur. 3.05.1928 r. w Barnwell w stanie Południowa Karolina, USA (w różnych publikacjach pojawiają się różne, daty i miejsca urodzenia). Porzucony przez matkę w wieku 4 lat, wychowywany był przez ciotkę, właścicielkę burdelu w Augusta w stanie Georgia.

Wielką legendę Jamesa Browna oddają w pewnym stopniu nadawane mu przydomki: "najciężej pracujący człowiek w show-businessie", "ojciec chrzestny muzyki soul" czy "pastor nowego super heavy funk". W wieku 16 lat został skazany za kradzież i zamknięty w zakładzie poprawczym Alto Reform School. Wyszedł przedterminowo za poręczeniem miejscowego pieśniarza Bobby'ego Byrda. Brown dołączył później do jego zespołu - The Gospel Starlighters, który po zmianie stylu na rhythm'n'bluesowy, zmienił też nazwę na The Flames.

W 1955 r. grupa nagrała w radiostacji WIBB w Macon w stanie Georgia demo piosenki "Please Please Please". Lokalna popularność tego nagrania była tak duża, że łowca talentów. Ralph Bass doprowadził do podpisania przez zespół kontraktu z firmą King/ Federal. Singel z poprawioną wersją tego nagrania ukazał się w marcu 1956 r. Firmowany przez "James Brown And The Famous Flames" doszedł do 5. miejsca na amerykańskiej liście rhythm'n' bluesowej. Kolejne nagrania wypadały słabo i dopiero w 1958 r. singel "Try Me" wspiął się na szczyt tej samej listy.
Brown ponownie miał kłopoty z utrzymaniem wysokiego poziomu, choć nagrania "I'll Go Crazy" i "Think" (oba z 1960 r.) wyprowadziły go na prostą. Dopiero jednak album Live At The Apollo (z 1962 r.) ugruntował pozycję artysty. W tym szaleńczym zbiorze nieokrzesany, żywiołowy i nieposkromiony Brown potwierdził swą rolę - głosu czarnej Ameryki. Jego kompozycje urzekały. Energiczne piosenki takie jak "Night Train" i "Shout And Shimmy" kontrastowały z wolniejszymi wyznaniami "I Don't Mind" i "Bewildered".

Pierwszy hit w amerykańskiej popowej Top 20 przyniosła mu ciekawie zinstrumentalizowana, rzewna piosenka "Prisoner Of Love" (z 1963 r.). Wokalista, niezadowolony z wytwórni King, zignorował wymogi kontraktu i przeniósł się do firmy Smash. Gdy pierwotni chlebodawcy uzyskali w sądzie egzekucję swych praw, kolejne nagranie - "Out Of Sight" było już przebojem w całej Ameryce. Bardziej istotne jest jednak to, że singel ten wyznaczył początek bardziej surowego i ostrzejszego brzmienia, które miało w końcu doprowadzić do odrzucenia, ustalonego na Zachodzie pojęcia harmonii i struktury. Nowatorski okres połowy lat 60. uchwycony został w filmie "TAMI Show", ukazującym elektryzujący występ Browna.

W latach 60-tych James zadeklarował artystyczną wolność swymi coraz bardziej niekonwencjonalnymi piosenkami, takimi jak "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag", "I Got You (I Feel Good)", "It's A Man's Man's Man's World" i "Money Won't Change You". W 1967 r. Alfred Ellis zastąpił Nata Jonesa na pozycji kierownika muzycznego Browna, a nagranie "Cold Sweat" ukazało dalszą radykalną zmianę na lepsze w grze zespołu towarzyszącego Jamesowi. Nagrania "Say It Loud - I'm Black And I'm Proud" (z 1968 r;), "Mother Popcorn" (z 1969 r.) i "Get Up (I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine" (z 1970 r.) sprowadzone zostały, do nerwowego, monotonnego rytmu wybijanego na perkusji przez Clyde'a Stubblefielda nad którym unosił się czasem krzyczący, czasem, błagalny ale zawsze natarczywy głos piosenkarza.

W 1971r, Brown przeniósł się do wytwórni Polydor i zaangażował nową grupę wspomagającą - The JBs. Na jej czele stał Fred Westey, a występowali w niej tacy wytrawni muzycy jak Maceo Parker i St. Clair Pinckney obok kilku przedstawicieli młodego pokolenia. Tymczasem eks-basista Browna William "Bootsy" Collins i inni członkowie jego poprzedniej formacji przeszli do zespołu Funkadelic George'a Clintona.

Zmiany te oraz wyzwanie rzucone przez Sly'a Stone'a tylko wzmocniły determinację Browna. Nadal nagrywał duże przeboje; w 1974 r. zanotował trzy kolejne 1. miejsca na liście rhythm'n'bluesowej: "The Payback", "My Thang" i "Papa Don't Take No Mess (Part l)". Wziął także udział w nagraniu muzyki do dwóch filmów: "Black Caesar" i "Slaughter's Big Rip Off".
Wraz z upływem dekady jego utwory traciły jednak swą moc, a popularność spadła z nastaniem ery disco. W tym okresie jaśniejszym punktem w jego życiu stała się błyskotliwa rola w filmie "The Blues Brothers". W 1980 r. Brown opuścił wytwórnię Polydor. Kolejne nagrania dla pomniejszych firm takich jak TK, Augusta Sound i Backstreet przyniosły artyście jedynie marginalne sukcesy. W 1986 r. żądny odwetu Brown powrócił nagraniem "Livin' In America", tematem ze ścieżki dźwiękowej do filmu "Rocky IV". Singel ten stał się światowym hitem; a po nim nastąpiły dwa nagrania notowane w rhythm'n'bluesowej Top 10: "How Do You Stop" (z 1987 r.) i "I'm Real" (z 1988 r.).
Ta druga kompozycja stała się inspiracją dla świetnego albumu o tym samym tytule.
Renesans popularności Browna został jednak przerwany już w tym samym roku aresztowaniem piosenkarza po szaleńczym pościgu samochodowym policji. Oskarżono go o szereg przestępstw, w tym nielegalne posiadanie narkotyków i broni, czynną napaść i niezatrzymanie się na wezwanie funkcjonariuszy. Skazano go na sześć i pół roku więzienia w State Park Correctional Centre i zwolniono warunkowo w 1991 r.

Dwa lata później nakładem firmy Scotti Bros ukazał się jego ostatni jak dotąd album Universal James. Duży wpływ Jamesa Browna na innych muzyków wzrósł jeszcze bardziej wraz z nastaniem stylu hip hop. Figury rytmiczne' Stubblefielda, szczególnie te z nagarnia "Funky drummer" z 1970 r.; również wielokrotnie służyły za wzór, podobnie jak i sławne okrzyki, odgłosy,zawołania i wokalne improwizacje Browna.
