TV Special Honors
'Godfather of Soul’
(AP) — The Kennedy Center - usually home to opera,
symphony and theater - got on the good foot last week as stars
from the R&B charts paid tribute to “Godfather of Soul” James
Brown.
The Kennedy Center Honors will be broadcast on CBS Dec.
26.
Rapper LL Cool J said Brown “broke down mental and social
barriers and made it possible for me, a black kid from Queens,
to stand in front of presidents and say, ‘Say it loud. I'm black and
I'm proud.’”
Younger R&B stars covered some of Brown’s hits, with
Anastacia performing “Sex Machine,” Joss Stone singing “It’s a
M an’s M an's M an's W orld” and Brian McKnight tackling
“Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag.”

Ex-Ronette ‘Devastated’ Over Spector Case
(A P ) — R o n n ie S p e c to r
G reenfield, who with her sister
and cousin made up the black
1960s girl group the Ronettes,
was "devastated” when ex-hus­
band and record producer Phil
Spector was charged with m urder
in California.
"I had never seen him violent like
that, with a gun or anything,”
Greenfield said. "I feel awful.”
G reenfield, now 60, acknow l­
edged that Spector often threat­
ened her while they were married,
from 1968-74, and after they d i­
vorced. She said he w arned her
he would send a hit man after her
but was never violent himself.
Spector, 63, is charged in the
Feb. 3 shooting death of actress
Lana Clarkson in his hilltop man­
sion in Alhambra, Calif. He sug­
gested that Clarkson, 40, may have
shot herself.
Greenfield said she hadn't con­
tacted Spector.
“I really wanted to stay out of it,"
she said. "I think we'll always be
friends because we have children
together. I think it best if I don't talk
to him now.”
Her com m ents cam e outside a
court hearing in New York where
negotiations were underw ay to
settle a lawsuit against Spector
that w ould give the R onettes
$890,000 owed for recordings but
not for royalties for uses that
include advertising and movies.
The Ronettes' lawyer, Alexander
Pelt/., says the women are due at
least $1.5 million. The difference
between the sums required a hear­
ing before a judge who will do her
own calculation of what the women
are owed.
