That's all you have to say? At least spell "heroin" right...jeez. yeah, I'm sure Fathead put the needle in his arm every time and "made him" an addict. Check the picture of the two of them as old friends in the Ray tribute CD Fathead put out recently-obviously Ray "resents" him...
Great gospeljazz, all-time fave, thanks for putting this to tube.

Awesome, I still get chills listening to this tune.
I saw him a couple of times in concert and he was fantastic.
And I would have said "yeah!" too!

Before you judge someone because they may have an addiction,try walking in their shoes,then you'll see how they became addicts.

Wonderful! Thanks so much for posting this. I only wish you had the whole song.
We met David last weekend. What a fine gentleman he is. Mikayla will be interviewing him next month for her column on AllAboutJazz.
Thanks again for this video.

Does anyone know someone who has Ray Charles Presents David "Fathead" Newman? It would be great if it could be uploaded from that album or CD.
