ABSTRACT
At about six or seven o’clock, Mr. Brown and an entourage of about four people arrived in what looked to be a rental car. Mr. Brown didn’t ride the bus. He would station himself at a central point, in this case Miami, and fly in his private Lear jet back and forth to gigs in the area. Mr. Brown exited the driver’s seat, went straight to the stage, and began fooling around with the Hammond B-3 organ that had been the first thing to be set up. He was much shorter than I had imagined him
1 Tenor saxophonist Maceo Parker and trumpeter Waymon Reed.
