5. He really does. There's nobody who even comes close to him.
Did you see the movie? It was really excellent...:hi:

12. Actually, I've seen it several times. LOL.
What happened was that my SO played it, and I didn't know how to turn off the machine, so it played a few times, but it was an excellent movie, so I didn't mind, certainly better than one episode of "The King of Queens," which I was forced into seeing eight times...:D

6. A friend sent me a link to get a free CD. I chose the Ray Charles CD.
Imagine that, but I have never owned another either. The list was limited and Ray Charles was the only artist I did not have a recording of.

8. Seeing Ray at the Greek Amphitheater in LA was probably one of the
best concerts I've ever been to. The second wasn't so much a concert, as a Blue Note (NYC) performance by BB King. Both simply wonderful performances. Ray's voice was so very expressive.
