you can tell they had a lot of respect and I would say love for each other, the smiles look sincere well two legends USA must be proud of this two great man one whithe and one black both representing the best of each culture without hate or racism
I wish I could experience what it feels like to have sounds coming up and and out of my body like ray charles. I mean imagine what it must feel like to sing like Ray!
Not that it matters I am a 19 yr old east indian female and I love the whole concept. June Carter wrote Ring of Fire - I wonder if this was a love song to Johnny Cash. I love the original version by Johnny Cash but let me tell you Ray Charles' version OMG add so much flavor to an already excellent peice. Plus I can see the admiration & respect the two gentlemen had for each other. In a word WOW!!
that's so crazy that thats the same song its amazing.. a REAL remix not just record scratching bs ... wow. seriously in shock like hows he gonna pull that off lol. GREAT MUSIC.
Frank Sinatra was quoted as saying Ray Charles was the only true genius in show business. After listening to what he did with this song I believe it. There will never be another voice or talent like this. R.I.P. Ray!
Thank you for sharing a little piece of the pass. You right, we got to keep this memories alive. It was nice to see this two giant together. Thank you man!
I was down at the Ryman the other night watching John Fogerty and I mentioned to my brother, " You know Derek and the Dominos have played in this room?" Then we started to list off all the folks who have come through there and it got to be a bit over-whelming. When we got to Hank Sr. I had to sit down. Such an amazing place. And when I see stuff like Ray doing it up here it only inspires me more. I'm gonna play there one day.
@brandolishes I recogn some of his stuff should be beamed out into deep space, much like they do with Bach. So let's hope he lives on till the end of the universe - the longest running music career, second only to the great J.S. Bach by a few hundred years.
