За новостями ведь вообще ни за какими не слежу -- вот и только теперь случайно наткнулся в wikipedia...
Недавно умер James Brown. Трудно не знать такого человека. На всякий случай: "... was an American entertainer recognized as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century popular music. As a prolific singer, songwriter, bandleader, and record producer, Brown was a seminal force in the evolution of gospel and rhythm and blues into soul and funk. He left his mark on numerous other musical genres, including rock, jazz, reggae, disco, dance and electronic music, afrobeat, and hip hop music."

А вот что случилось:
Brown was admitted to the Emory Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia on December 24, 2006 after a dentist visit where he was found to have severe pneumonia. Brown died the next day on December 25, 2006, Christmas Day, at around 1:45 a.m. (06:45 UTC). The cause of death was heart failure, according to his agent. James was quoted saying "I'm going away tonight" sometime before he died. He then took three long, quiet breaths, and closed his eyes Brown's body rested on the stage of legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem, the site of his debut. A private ceremony was held in Brown's hometown of Augusta, Georgia and another public ceremony was officiated by Rev. Al Sharpton, a day later at the James Brown Arena there.
По этому случаю ввел себе новый тег: rip. Много великих уходит...
