NEW YORK -- Tomorrow's your chance to get close to the Godfather of Soul. You can bid on James Brown's prized possessions.
Christie's auction house in New York will start bidding off hundreds of Brown's things, taken from his house, to pay off back taxes. Up for bid are several of Brown's jumpsuits, sunglasses, passports, childhood photos, his will and testament, hair supplies and lots of furniture and awards.
