Happy birthday John "Jabo" Starks

Happy birthday to the legendary John "Jabo" Starks (Born October 26, 1938). Starks played on many of James Brown's biggest hits, either as the sole drummer or in tandem with Clyde Stubblefield, including "The Payback", "Sex Machine", "Super Bad", and "Talking Loud and Saying Nothing". Along with Stubblefield, Starks ranks as one of the most sampled drummers on contemporary hip hop and R&B recordings.
