SAY IT LOUD: "JAMES BROWN/DOESN'T HAVE TO ASK-TO-BE-DOWN" (PART 1)



We came across these two slammin' illustration and painted portraits of the legendary Godfather of Soul. The above painting served as the cover of a double LP set entitled "Self portrait" (Polydor records). And this great illustration is apparently a promotional poster for a past concert. For which year this was created for and by whom we do not know. I wish we did though. for I suspect that the illustrator may have done other portraits and we'd love to see them.
