A personal journey in search of the soul legend James Brown by National Book Award-winning novelist James McBride.

'A formidable freestyle book that isn't straight biography but a mix of history, street-level investigative reporting, hagiography, Deep South sociology, music criticism, memoir and some fiery preaching' ROLLING STONE

The music of James Brown was almost a genre in its own right, and he was one of the biggest and most influential cultural figures of the twentieth century. But the singer known as the 'Hardest Working Man in Show Business' was also an immensely troubled, misunderstood and complicated man. Award-winning writer James McBride, himself a professional musician, has undertaken a journey of discovery in search of the 'real' James Brown, delving into the heartbreaking saga of Brown's childhood and destroyed estate, and uncovering the hidden history of Brown's early years.

The book contents are good. Format? Not so great/
Format: Hardcover
The text of this volume is exhaustive, but the photos are substandard. These need some enhancement and a lot of enlargement. Due to its its extreme weight, the book should have been issued in at least two volume, possibly three,. The third volume could profitably be devoted to enhanced photos: those used seem to adhere to the principal that a photo is worth <100 words.

Smells great, and absorbs well! Love it!
Scent: Majestic Oud, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product is great. I use it on my goatee. It smells great and makes my beard and mustache nice and soft. I can't stop touching it. I wasn't sure what particular fragrance to pick, so I randomly chose Majestic Oud. Sometimes the ladies don't like kissing a guy with facial hair, but they do when it smells good, and it's soft! It absorbs well; you just have to work it in. Best when the beard is softened after you wash your face, or after a shower. Wish this product came in a larger size, but a little goes a long way, after all, it's oil. If you want a touchable, tamed beard, I think this is a good one. It's all natural, good quality, and not at all sticky or gooey. It's not messy; it absorbs into the beard quickly. You still have to wash your hands, or just rub it into your hands.
