The two met in Georgia in 1952, when Brown was an inmate at a youth prison serving time for burglarizing cars and Byrd was on a local baseball team that came in to play the prison squad. Byrd befriended him, his family helped arrange Brown's release into their care, and Brown joined Byrd's gospel group — the foundation of what became The Famous Flames. This 1971 single was cut during their peak, when Byrd was also Brown's right-hand co-writer.\n\nhttps://www.npr.org/2007/09/21/14592442/a-tribute-to-james-browns-collaborator-friend", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
