Which of the following best describes James Brown’s childhood?
Today we will talk about James Brown, the musician called "The Godfather of Soul. " (14) James Brown was born in 1933 in a one-room house near Barnwell, South Carolina. His father, Joe Brown, had a job removing fluids from pine trees in the surrounding woods. The boy’s mother left the family when he was seven years old. James and his father moved to Augusta, Georgia. Then, young James began to show his musical talents and he learned to play the guitar, piano and drums. He did these while picking crops in the fields and shining people’s shoes to earn money to survive. (15) By the time he was thirteen, James Brown had formed his own music group. He later joined a group called the Flames. The band played at drinking places, restaurants, colleges and other places in the South. These young performers copied the sounds of successful rhythm and blues groups. (16)James Brown also became known as "the hardest working man in show business". During the 1960s, he performed his exciting show almost non-stop in city after city in the United States and in other countries. (17) At the same time, Brown worked for civil rights for African-Americans. In 1986, James Brown was one of the first performers invited into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He became one of the most successful recording artists in history.
