Van Morrison on Ray Charles |
|
Speaking of the late, great Ray Charles, Morrison told Rolling Stone magazine in April:
"His sound was stunning -- it was the blues, it was R&B, it was gospel, it was swing -- it was all the stuff I was listening to before that but rolled into one amazing, soulful thing."

cuppla months ago i found in a discount rack a compilation of blues/r&b hits. it's got a couple Buddy Guy songs and a couple B.B. King....but it also has on it an absolutely fire-breathing live version of "What'd I Say." Oh, man it's hot. Hell, we'll miss him.
.... hmmmm...of the two recent public-figure deaths, which would you say made the USA a better place?
