    "comment": "The J.B.'s were the legendary supporting cast of musicians behind James Brown, earning a well-deserved reputation as the tightest, best-drilled instrumental ensemble in all of funk. The name J.B.'s is most often associated with three hornmen in particular -- saxophonists Maceo Parker and Alfred \"Pee Wee\" Ellis, and trombonist Fred Wesley, all of whom originally joined Brown's backing band at various points during the '60s.:  \n\nLink:\nhttps://www.allmusic.com/artist/the-jbs-mn0000071970/biography\n\n\"Pass the Peas\" is a 1972 funk instrumental by The J.B.'s. It was released as a single on People Records and featured Fred Wesley on that terrific trombone solo.",
