Spare a thought for George Brown. A stalwart member of Kool And the Gang – he co-founded the funk and disco legends back in 1964. The drummer had spent twenty years working on a solo album. But sadly, he never got to see its release – he died last November of lung cancer before he could get the project over the line.
The record, Where I’m Coming From, is now being released posthumously. His widow Hanh Brown explained the record is her late husband's "message to the world" and it means a lot to her and their family.
