May he rest in piece. I envision him in a place where he'll finally be able to gaze upon the faces of the audience as he plays. For a blind man, he was a musical visionary. He will be missed.

Oh shit.
Ray Charles had more soul and feeling in his voice at age 73 than 99.99% of the current recording artists will ever have.
A truly great musician. Rest in peace, welcome to the big jam session in the sky, Mr. Charles.

A legend.
What the heck else can I say since he's one my three musicians/songwriters/personal inspirations I've coveted the most. Now they have all passed on.

I learned a lot about him a few months ago when i did my report for African American History Month. He really was a great guy...
Rest in peace.

Aye - very sad.
I consider myself lucky that I twice got to see him in concert.

*Oh, it's cryin' time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin' Oooh
That it won't be long before it's cryin' time*
I used to go to sleep to that song playing many nights..my mom was a huge fan of Ray's music, and so was I.
RIP
