Similairities between different artists

Hey everyone,
Over the past few decades, the world has been introduced to a large number of amazing artits. One of these artists in my opinion is James Brown. James Brown was able to combine a series of elements from among other the Blues and Gospel. This is clearly seen in his performance on the T.A.M.I Show. Which in my opinion is one of his best performances of all time. He sings a little like Ray Charles too. Especcially in his style of music. Ray Charles was a blues singer and James Brown music is a little similair to this. The music for this song also shows its similarities to the motown sound. One of the most distinctive features being the use of a melodic electric bass. One other prominent feature is the call and response style used in some parts of the song, which is both used in motown songs often as well as with gospel songs. He shows some differences though. motown was known for its use of a tamburine to accent the black beat and this is not really present in this song.
Anyways that was pretty much it for this week, see you next week readers!
