Bootsy & Catfish Collins audition for James Brown’s band was a trip — to their surprise, the whole band was escorted from a near-empty $14 gig in Ohio, flown by private jet to Georgia & immediately placed on stage in front of thousands of people to play behind Brown with no forewarning. They were immediately hired & henceforth called The J.B’s. Before that, they had no idea James Brown knew they existed.

This is a Bluescentric Brand ringer tee, available in comfortable sizes up to 2XL. The material is 4.3 oz 100% combed ringspun cotton fine jersey. It features side seams and contrasting 1x1 baby rib binded collar and sleeves.

KEEP THE BLUES ALIVE! This is a very special, limited edition collaboration with The Blues Foundation, uniquely featuring early blues music stars and legends! Every piece sold from this limited edition series benefits the Blues Hall of Fame in Memphis, Tennessee. 

This design features the great Blind Willie Johnson, gospel blues singer and slide guitarist. His stunning, gravelly voice and haunting bottleneck guitar work made Johnson a legend. His eerie recording “Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground” was included on the Voyager Golden Record, carrying his music into space as a representation of humanity.

The Blues Foundation's steadfast mission is to preserve blues heritage, celebrate blues recording and performance, expand worldwide awareness of the blues & ensures the future of this uniquely American art form.
