LINDSAY, WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER ICONS YOU'VE TAKEN PHOTOS OF?

LINDSAY DONALD AND PAPA JAMES BROWN

Many imgaes I was to take that will adorn the book, PORTRAIT OF A LEGEND AND OTHER FOLKS, are embargoed until publication. I refer to images I was to take in 1983 of The Godfather, Papa James Brown. I was to spend time in his dressing room at a now defunct club, The Red Parrot which was situated on West 57th Street, between 10th and 11th Avenue, New York. The Red Parrot was a huge, block sized club and it actually had parrots in cages at the club and at times featured a Big Band Orchestra. It was to be the one and only time I would ever see Papa James perfom but that night was one big................GAS.
