A little late with this - a friend mentioned it yesterday.

A fine r&b singer. Recorded some great stuff for Savoy - Ray Charles' version of "(Night Time Is) The Right Time" added little to Nappy's original version. Nappy did it right the first time.

Thanks for all you gave us, Mr. Brown.

I have a Christmas song of his. I taped a Christmas radio show some fifteen years ago and he was on it. Play it every December. RIP

was it "white christmas"?!? (no pun intended!) i seem to remember that he recorded that and it was a hit for him.

I saw Nappy Brown twice at Hickory, NC's late lamented Fast Company/Ten Years after blues and rock club. He was a fine entertainer and Lemon Squeezin' Daddy always brought the house down. I picked up his Ichiban CD and it always delivers. Well done, sir.
