Hi Paul,
Unfortunately this is only Part 1, but I’m sure you may see the funny side.
My favourite bit (image of james brown) is him in the studio as Maceo Parker [?] describe
how they ‘wrote’ songs.

With Mr JB screamin ‘on th’ one’ and that kind thing with MP ‘interpreting’ and writing
down JB’s ‘noises’ and what they meant ‘musically’ ie He ‘WAS’ the funk !

Yeah, I hope the amount of comments doesn’t equal the amount of downloads because that means a lot of people are missing a good tune!
