RIP Ray Charles - GoFuckYourself.com

PersianKitty · 06-10-2004, 12:37 PM

Just saw a blurb on the CNN ticker. Still looking for online info.

Found it..

"BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Ray Charles (news), the Grammy-winning crooner credited with creating American soul music with a blend of gospel and blues in such crowd-pleasers as "What'd I Say" and "I Got A Woman" and heartfelt ballads like "Georgia on My Mind," died Thursday. He was 73.

Charles died at 11:35 a.m., surrounded by family and friends, said spokesman Jerry Digney. "

It's sad, but I'm not sure it's a shame. He was 74 years old.

Not like he was in his prime or anything.

The blind black guy, older than Stevie Wonder?

I just saw him live a couple of years ago -- still a fantastic entertainer, but obviously on his last legs. It was very moving.

you've never heard it's a wonderful world? or georgia on my mind? one of the greatest jazz/blues musicians of all time.

swami · 06-10-2004, 12:56 PM

I hope his sendoff is bigger than Ronald Reagans.

Thanks for the songs Ray.

it will be. I'd be willing to bet he'll be buried old school new orleans style, which means a HUGE jazz procession through the city.

I live in America where people are free to be into different kinds of music. I never cared for blues/jazz, so I know nothing about this guy, or any other guy in that genre. Plus, I'm probably in a younger generation than his target audience.

MaDalton · 06-10-2004, 01:05 PM

my respect to a great artist. he may rest in peace.

titmowse · 06-10-2004, 01:06 PM

Hehehe -- I forgot about that! God, didn't you just think he was going to keel over any second though? The show I saw was in Tacoma, WA - I just had to look it up in my journal:

"LEG-SWINGING LEGEND
Wow. I saw/heard Ray Charles tonight in concert. It's amazing to me how resilient & strong people are . . . and how frail and fleshy too. He was helped onto the stage and started out coughing and hacking a bit. Some of the sustained high notes came out as silent crackly static screams. But still there was no doubt we were in the presence of a super-talented legend. The force of his voice, the style of his piano playing, his personality . . . it was a privilege to witness in real life. The high points for me were him singing 'Your Cheatin' Heart' and 'It's not Easy Being Green'."

valley hina · 06-10-2004, 01:30 PM

asuna · 06-10-2004, 01:33 PM

Man when I think back over the years, his music has been a huge part of everyday of my 42 years. He truly had a musical impact on my life.

Shok · 06-10-2004, 01:48 PM

didn't he SEE this coming?

Diligent · 06-10-2004, 01:56 PM

May he rest in peace, his music will live on for a long, long time - timeless
masterpieces as they are.

C_U_Next_Tuesday · 06-10-2004, 02:03 PM

OMG, that is terrible.. what a music legend.

RIP Ray Charles
