I don't know if it was mentioned here at all but those of you from the[d.c.-md.-va.]area know of the passing of chuck brown who had a big hit with[i feel like bustin loose]some years back,chuck was called the godfather of[go-go]which of course is mostly regional but he was very well known in the music community and inspired some of the young rappers of today,chuck and the soul searchers have been around since the mid-sixties and he kept performing up until the end[he was 75]mr.brown was an all around musician who sang and played[jazz-soul-gospel]as well as go-go which he starte by having his band continue playing between sets at intermission of shows..just wanted to mention his passing for those of you who knew his sound he was one of a kind...r.i.p.

regional it was.imagine my supprise when i went to oman in the persian gulf 1985 when one of the 1st tapes i found was chuck brown's bustin' loose album!still got it still plays well.
the next one was samurai samba by the yellow jackets,couldnt get it in uk then,audiophile jap import only for about 100 quid!
5 tapes for equivelant £1 i came out with a carrier bag full,it made that place nearly bareable!
