Godfather of Soul James Brown rewarded a woman who made his trip to Sussex one to remember.

The 67-year-old music legend, who played at the Essential Music Festival in Brighton on Sunday, gave a specially-made suit to Jo Brooks, who helped organise the event.

She met the singer when he stepped off his private jet on Sunday morning and spent the whole day with him.

She said: "He decided that nobody else could look after him apart from me.

"He gave me a signed photograph of him meeting the Pope and a black, two-piece suit which was especially made for him. I'm probably going to put it in a display case and keep it at home."
