Gunny used to remind everyone who my driving instructor was and sadly he has passed on.

Ray Charles dies at 73

Sad. Great entertainer. Made a huge impact on music.

Rest in peace.

Reagan, Ray Charles. So who will be the third. These things always come in three's y'know.

That's a shame. I'm definitely a fan of his music. RIP Ray Charles.

This absolutely blows on many levels.

I have tickets to see Ray Charles doing an evening with the Seattle Symphony at Benaroya Hall next January. It would've been a legendary performance.

I'll never forget the closeup shot of him in The Blues Brothers with a big smile and the keys on his keyboard reflected in his sunglasses. I always thought that would make a cool poster.
