On Dec 25, 2006, The Godfather of Soul, James Brown died after being hospitalized with pneumonia. That was a lot of musical energy & funk to be set back into the atmosphere, for a man who was #2 of the all-time hit record makers; just behind Elvis Presley, charted over 116 hits during his career, is the most sampled artist in the world today and litterally changed the face of popular music forever.

His body of work spans almost 60 Decades of creating music, producing artists, touring the globe and defining showmanship. His musical ingenuity sparked the development of numerous musical genres, including jazz, funk, disco, electronic music, afrobeat and hip hop music.

On February 9th, The El Mocambo Club (464 Spadina Ave.) presents a night of Musical Tribute by a cast Toronto musicians including KC Roberts & The Raw Blue, High Plains Drifter plus DJ Sean Sax and will be hosted by DJ Goldfinger (CIUT 89.5FM). This musical melange represents a cross-section of Toronto's Funk, Soul & R n' B music scene and is not to be missed!

The evening will also have a multimedia History and Tribute to The Soul Brother Number One, Mr. Dynamite, the Hardest-Working Man in Show Business, Minister of The New New Super Heavy Funk, Mr. Please Please Please, The Boss, and the best-known, the Godfather of Soul - JAMES BROWN!!!
