I could go with Bootsy Collins or the Isley Brothers as semifinalists, but James Brown without question. The hardest working man in show business!
James Brown- King Records, Brewster Ave. Cincinnnati. Isley’s are from here too & Bootsy BABY! is a local icon. What’s odd is the Funk Hall Of Fame in Dayton.

I wonder if they have inducted Dolly Parton?
