How about some suggestions for good recordings and performances available from Ray Charles. It's sad that I have none in my collection and his passing makes me want to explore his work.
I heard about the passing this afternoon on NPR. We have lost another great one. The first thing I did when I got home today was to sit in the sweet spot and listen to "Let's Go Get Stoned". Has to be one of my favorite songs by him. He will be missed.
Ray Charles was an original whose music will stand the test of time. I heard the news while listening to a local Portland jazz station and they put on "Georgia" as a tribute. It's hard to believe he's gone.
Tds34: A great deal of his best music can be found on "Genius and Soul", a five disc box set.
