James Joseph Brown (May 3, 1933 – December 25, 2006) was an American singer, songwriter, musician, and recording artist. He is the originator of funk music and is a major figure of 20th century popular music and dance.
In a career that spanned decades, Brown profoundly influenced the development of many different musical genres. Brown moved on a continuum of blues and gospel-based forms and styles to a profoundly "Africanized" approach to music making. Brown performed in concerts, first making his rounds across the Chitlin' Circuit, and then across the country and later around the world, along with appearing in shows on television and in movies. Although he contributed much to the music world through his hitmaking, Brown holds the record as the artist who charted the most singles on the Billboard Hot 100 without ever hitting number one on that chart.
For many years, Brown's touring show was one of the most extravagant productions in American popular music. At the time of Brown's death, his band included three guitarists, two bass guitar players, two drummers, three horns and a percussionist. The bands that he maintained during the late 1960s and 1970s were of comparable size, and the bands also included a three-piece amplified string section that played during ballads. Brown employed between 40 and 50 people for the James Brown Revue, and members of the revue traveled with him in a bus to cities and towns all over the country, performing upwards of 330 shows a year with almost all of the shows as one-nighters. In 1986, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and in 1990 into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Duran's show is now heard live in over 40 markets including Hartford, New York, Philadelphia, Miami, Cleveland, Atlanta, Fort Myers, Quad Cities, Syracuse, Des Moines, and Richmond.
Before his current job at Z100, Duran's previous radio jobs included a stint as an on-air personality at WIOQ in Philadelphia. He served as WIOQ's program director from May 1989 until just before he was fired in February 1990. In October 1991, Duran became both the program director and morning show host of KBTS (now KGSR) in Austin, Texas.
Prior to working at Z100, Duran also worked evenings at Z-93 with sidekick "Hot Henrietta" in Atlanta, and in Houston. He began his run at Z100 hosting the afternoon slot until April 1996,Tom Poleman, the newly appointed program director, moved Duran to the morning slot, where he has been ever since.
Duran was a 1995 nominee for Best Top 40 Disk Jockey in the Billboard magazine radio.

I'm so glad to see you..delighted that you came
I swear you haven't changed
I called you to tell you, I'm coming home in seven days
In a word it's all arranged
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
EVERYTHING IS FINE-APRIL 29
TRY TO BE ON TIME-APRIL 29
I used to be fearful, of the voice inside my head
And all the foolish things it said
Oh, tell me you'll be there-It would be just like old times
April 29
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
(CHORUS)
Unlock the door and...throw away the key
The sun is shining-We're finally free
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind, and my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you, and how I'll see your face again
(CHORUS 2x)
I'm so glad to see you
Delighted that you came
I swear you haven't changed
I called you to tell you
I'm coming home in seven days
In a word it's all arranged
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind
And my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you
And now I'll see your face again
Everything is fine, April twenty-nine
Try to be on time, April twenty-nine
I used to be fearful
Of the voice inside my head
And all the foolish things it said
Oh, tell me you'll be there
It would be just like old times
April twenty-nine
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind
And my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you
And now I'll see your face again
Everything is fine, April twenty-nine
Try to be on time, April twenty-nine
(La la la la)
Unlock the door and throw away the key
(La la la la, la la la la)
The sun is shining, we're finally free
(La la la la, la la la la)
I've been so lonely since I lost my mind
And my patience is wearin' thin
But I feel lucky when I think of you
And now I'll see your face again
Everything is fine, April twenty-nine
I'll try to be on time, April twenty-nine
Everything is fine, April twenty-nine
I'II try to be on time, April twenty-nine
Try to be on time, April twenty-nine
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
No she will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Stolen, this baby, screams "somebody save me!"
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Well, I have a feeling that its said and done...
and I never thought that they would ruin all my fun
Well, I have a feeling that its said and done... (that its said and done.)
and I never thought that they would ruin all my fun (they would ruin all my fun)
She looks at me as if I have no tongue to speak...
But I know that in it's twilight she will see
She looks at me as if I have no tongue to speak...
But I know that in it's twilight she will see
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays will burn her eyes
All the rays
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
She will never look to me
Such a perfect time to echo softly
With blisters in my eyes, she will never try to stop me
(Lying on her side, next to the silent smell of autumn trees)
She will never know
