Godfather Of Soul's NY Farewell Photos
The Rev. Al Sharpton stands next to the body of James Brown as it lies in repose during a viewing at Harlem's Apollo Theater in New York on Dec. 28, 2006. On the stage where he made his 1956 debut, the man known as the "Godfather of Soul" lay in an open coffin, resplendent in a blue suit, white gloves and silver shoes.
