One of the most significant Americans to ever live and love.
I’m the young lady in the middle. To believe it’s been since 2006 is crazy! Id love to see the entire production. I was only 13.
INSPIRATIONAL! Honest, Real, Pure.
The Greatest To Ever Do It! Rest In Power Messenger!!!
So good! I’m still groovin’ to Sin and Soul! 😍
@@joijaxx We love to hear that!! Thank you for posting this message, we love you JoiJaxx 🥰
@@oscarbrownjr.5978 I love you too! "Sin and Soul" is probably the first record I ever heard, and it was played continuously throughout my childhood. We all loved it. I still have the album. It had a profound influence on my siblings and myself and all of us could probably sing "I Was Cool", "Bid 'Em In", "Signifying Monkey," and "Watermelon Man" straight through if we were asked! Two of my brothers went on to become professional drummers. "Sin and Soul" was one of the first cds I bought when cds came out. The album is on my iPhone and of course I sing along whenever it comes on when I shuffle the songs. As I get older, I appreciate his genius more and more as I understand the nuances and layers of his lyrics-they are truly poetry. Thank you for continuing with his legacy!
If the USA was a failed country, you think we would have an immigration problem??
Sad but true 😱😱
WORD
Sacred
Magnificent!
Website is merely a parody site by some right wing nutter during the bush era 0:09 don’t embellish as it strengthens conservatives arguments against leftists. This is no government traitor list, those are fbis most wanted list and other agencies who would have those kind of list. Also for what it’s worth Oscar makes good music, it’s a shame that trump reading the snake is the reason I found this, mind blown that Oscar and trump are polor opposites yet trump seems to be Oscar’s biggest fan at least when it comes to the snake. Oscars version sounds more like it’s about a woman taking in someone with bad intention and getting hurt, not about immigrants but is there something relevant in that context too or no? Thought provoking, controversial 🤔
Thanks for posting.
Excellent.
Yeah That hit nail on the head!
May they both rest in peace!
I really enjoyed working with him we had a very good time I love hearing this thank you
My Brother
I was always happy about him and his son and his daughters they meant a lot to me and I was so blessed
This Maestro is Epic
What tricky trades may I have tried had I not laid preoccupied?
Helluva line! What all escapes a ladies' man...
Great. That’s jazz, father & son about Time 🎶❤️
one of a kind! nah.. better than that.. two of a kind!!
Two great Oscars!!!
Bravo for keeping your family's legacy alive and sharing the gift with us.
What a treasure to have.
❤️❤️
a joyful celebration of reality by a brilliant writer and performer with a delicious sense of humor I don't think it was, but the band's opening number TASTED like a medley of a few dozen pieces I'd never heard but just a line or two of each an exquisitely complex composition I'll be checking out the website
Brilliant!
I'm just realizing in 2022 this was pretty much the original skeleton for "Persimmon Man" by the Funky Wordsmyths..... man I miss those days
Apollo brought me here!
Thanks so much for sharing this! Love it! Generational musical talent!!
Love this Classic from back in the day! Yes, Oscar Brown, Jr. is a very overlooked talent.
apparently the man on the upright bass only lived to 40 years of age. very sad
Yes it is very sad my brother was so young and we miss him so much so so much. Thank you for your comment, Peace n Love Africa Brown

I was listening to this for the first time and I thought to myself this song would have been perfect Minnie Riperton
I saw Oscar III and Oscar Jr perform with a big band in Ojai. CA. That was a great show. I saw Oscar Jr several other times but the show in Ojai was the best. Oscar III you are still missed. And of course Jr, too. j

was the bit after 18:00-22:00 from a specific track, it seems like an epilogue to Ladies Man?
Greetings what you hear at that point is Oscar doing one of his poems called ODE OWED YOUTH, he performs it inside of his song called ALL OVER (Things Aint What They Used to Be) if you go to OscarBrownjr.org and find the “appreciated when listening to” section of poetry you will be able to read the lyrics of the song.
