BELLSON & JAMES BROWN Concert Review
Sept 6, 2006 - James Brown, Louie Bellson and Christian McBride performed at the Hollywood Bowl in a revisit to their 1969 album, "Soul On Top." Seems there was wide difference of opinion (a chasm!) over this celebrated concert, only three months before the Godfather's untimely death at Christmas.
