I especially love the reckoning that Brown was channeling through him, OR, perhaps he was channeling through Brown?

Hey Susan! Yes, the reckoning Brown was channeling. He had that spirit. That fire, the Godfather of soul. Thanks for reading.

It's one of a kind for sure. Remember Queens? That might be my next story. That wait for the train...

Thanks for reading Lester. Glad you enjoyed it. Did you watched the link attached? Dude looks and sounds just like James Brown. I saw him while waiting on the shuttle and was in awe!
