- found: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum website, August 2, 2015:The Famous Flames biography (The Famous Flames provided vocals and choreography for James Brown from their formation in 1953 until their departure in 1968. There were many comings and goings within the Famous Flames during that 15-year period. To make matters more confusing, while the Famous Flames initially referred to the entire group, it eventually came to represent only the backup vocalists, while the musicians were tagged the James Brown Band) - http://rockhall.com/inductees/the-famous-flames/bio/
