I can't think of a more beloved figure in the area. Chuck Brown WAS D.C.. Thanks for the decades of happiness. Most people don't realize this, but he had quite a following in the U.K..
I'm not sure, but I was talking to a guy from Manchester, England, and he starts talking about how they've been playing go-go music on the radio over there for years. He starts talking about Brown, E.U., Trouble Funk, Rare Essence, Junkyard Band, etc.-----and he was a white guy. My jaw dropped.

The UK has a deeeep apreciation for soulful music of any kind. Much a greater appreciation than over here in the US. I'm not surprised that they was bumpin Chuck over there.
