Sylvester James
Sylvester James was a disco singer/songwriter. James joined the ill-fated performance group, the Cockettes in the ’70s, but was widely known for his solo work, like the 1978 hit “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Reel).” The single was inducted into the Dance Music Hall of Fame in 1994. As an openly gay man, James once remarked that contracting the virus was not a punishment from God for his lifestyle. He died from complications from AIDS in 1988, at the age of 41.
