Bummer
The ultimate bummer. The Godfather has passed.
The flossblog will now go into mourning for the next week.
I'm pretty sure this is what heaven looks like right now:
Nice Obit from Slate. Although Mother Popcorn is not the funkiest song of all time. The funkiest song of all time is Blow Your Head off the JB's "Damn Right I Am Somebody". It's so funky it stinks up your room for weeks.
Some good news.

This is, indeed, the ultimate bummer. All these videos are making my browser crash though. But yeah. More of a bummer than many other soulsters combined. This is the supernova.
Well, except for Marvin Gaye, but for different reasons. And we were too long for that to make much of an impression at the time.
I was with Jesse in Corvallis when I heard the news. We had just got done camping and were strolling down the city street when we saw the "hardest working man" splashed across the cover of the newspaper. I initially suspected that perhaps he had gotten arrested for settng a prostitute on fire or something, but quickly realized that he indeed had passed. So sad. And I was truly hoping that someday he would be the funky president...
"Blow Your Head" is, in fact, so funky that when Tim and I played it recently the septic tank outside ruptured and burst, sending a geyser of funk fifty feet into the air. Fortunately no one was hurt. BUT MAN!! STINKY FUNKY!!
