Brown was inspired to become an entertainer after watching Louis Jordan, a popular jazz and R & B performer during the 1940s, and Jordan's Tympany Five performing " Caldonia " in a short film.

In 1952, while still in reform school, Brown met future R & B legend Bobby Byrd, who was there playing baseball against the reform school team.

Returning, his friend Bobby Byrd asked Brown to join his R & B group, the Avons, who had went under the previous name, the Gospel Starlighters, to avoid controversy with church leaders.

The group, which included alongside Byrd and Brown ; Sylvester Keels, Doyle Oglesby, Fred Pulliam and Johnny Terry, modeled themselves after the R & B groups of the day including The Orioles, The Five Keys, and Billy Ward and His Dominoes.

Released that October, it returned the Famous Flames to the charts and reached # 1 on the R & B chart in February 1959 becoming the first of 17 chart-topping hits on the R & B chart which were credited to Brown over the next 15 years with six of them credited to the Famous Flames.

This resulted in the next Brown hit, " I Want You So Bad ", which peaked in the Top 20 on the Billboard R & B chart.

By 1960, having been influenced more by jazz music than blues, Brown began incorporating jazz styled arrangements in his music, with Brown naming the Famous Flames hits " I'll Go Crazy " and " Think " as examples of his changing style away from more traditional forms of R & B and rock ' n ' roll.

Brown's band recorded the instrumental hit, " Night Train ", which was among the first to credit Brown by himself, and became a Top 5 R & B hit and crossed over briefly to the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100.

The ballad, " Lost Someone ", credited with the Famous Flames, became, along with " Please, Please, Please ", an early show-stopper to Brown's shows, while the recording of the Joe Tex composition, " Baby You're Right " ( to which Brown altered completely from the original ), increased his reputation with R & B audiences.

After the year's previous success, King had Brown sign a new recording contract and in June 1965, released " Papa's Got a Brand New Bag ", which became his breakthrough hit single, becoming his first # 1 single on the R & B chart since " Try Me " and his first Top 10 pop single winning Brown his first Grammy.

Brown and his fellow Famous Flame, Bobby Byrd, recruited several members of the Cincinnati band, The Pacemakers, which included Bootsy Collins and his brother Phelps " Catfish " Collins, and, using some remaining members of Brown's 1960s road band and other newer musicians, dubbed the band simply as The J. B .' s.

Many of his sidemen and supporting players, such as Fred Wesley & The J. B .' s, Bobby Byrd, Lyn Collins, Vicki Anderson and Hank Ballard, released records on the People label, an imprint founded by Brown that was purchased by Polydor as part of Brown's new contract.

Brown's " Papa Don't Take No Mess " would be his final single to reach the # 1 spot on the R & B charts and his final Top 40 pop single of the 1970s, though Brown continued to occasionally have Top 10 R & B recordings.

By 1977, Brown was no longer a dominant force in R & B.

It was right along this time that Brown changed the name of his band from The J. B .' s to the Soul Generals ( or Soul G's ).

" In 1987, Brown won the Grammy for Best Male R & B Vocal Performance for " Living in America.

In 1988, Brown worked with the production team Full Force on the new jack swing-influenced album I'm Real, which spawned his final two Top 10 R & B hits, " I'm Real " and " Static ", which peaked at # 2 and # 5, respectively, on the R & B charts.

Leisurely he climbed on to the wagon next to Neal Brown.

Mando, pleading her cause, must have said that Dr. Brown was the most distinguished physician in the United States of America, for our man poured out his symptoms and drew a madly waving line indicating the irregularity of his pulse.

It was not until we had returned to the city to live, while I was still at Brown and Sharpe's, that I felt the full impact of evangelical Christianity.

In the preamble to the open-meeting statutes, collectively known as the Brown Act, the Legislature declares that `` the public commissions, boards and councils and other public agencies in this state exist to aid in the conduct of the people's business.

Since 1953 California has led the nation in enacting guarantees that public business shall be publicly conducted, but not until this year did the lawmakers in Sacramento plug the remaining loopholes in the Brown Act.

Moreover, the entire state Democratic hierarchy, from Gov. Brown on down to the county chairmen, also participates in this huge operation.

When the Brown & Sharpe Manufacturing Company reached its 125th year as a going industrial concern during 1958, it became an almost unique institution in the mechanical world.

With its history standing astride all but the very beginnings of the industrial revolution, Brown & Sharpe has become over the years a singular monument to the mechanical foresight of its founder, Joseph R. Brown, and a world-renowned synonym for precision and progress in metalworking technology.

Joseph R. Brown grew up in the bustle and enterprise of New England between 1810 and 1830.

He was early exposed to the mechanical world, and in his youth often helped his father, David Brown, master clock and watchmaker, as he plied his trade.

This enterprise led to a father-and-son combination beginning in 1833, under the name D. Brown & Son, a business which eventually grew into the modern corporation we now call Brown & Sharpe.

In 1838, a devastating fire gutted their small shop and soon thereafter David Brown moved west to Illinois, settling on a land grant in his declining years.

Joseph Brown continued in business by himself, quickly rebuilding the establishment which had been lost in the fire and beginning those first steps which were to establish him as a pioneer in raising the standards of accuracy of machine shop practice throughout the world.

But his business also grew, and we are told that Mr. Brown found it increasingly difficult to devote as much time to his creative thinking as his inclinations led him to desire.

It must have been with some pleasure and relief that on September 12, 1848, Joseph Brown made the momentous entry in his job book, in his characteristically cryptic style, `` Lucian Sharpe came to work for me this day as an apprentice ''.

the company became `` J. R. Brown & Sharpe '', and entered into a new and important period of its development.
