Who Stole the Soul? James Brown's Body Missing?

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

What happened to the Godfather of Soul’s body. Dumbworld won’t sleep until there are answers. OK- we will sleep, but we won’t like it.  OK- we will like it, but we will be wearing our special pajamas for safety.

RIP Freddie Hubbard

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

I meant to say something about this earlier in the week.  Jazz Trumpeter Freddie Hubbard died this week at the age of 70.

The first time I heard him was when Tribe Called Quest sampled Red Clay (below are the original and the Tribe track).
