This valuable piece of history has fallen into disarray over the years. This is the location where James Brown recorded his first album and where the song "The Twist" was first recorded. Unfortunately, you can't actually go into the building, but the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has put up a plaque outside to commemorate it. I hope someone is able to scoop this property up and rehabilitate it before it gets knocked down and turned into a parking lot.
