  • It is amazing to me how God takes care of the ones that need to be comforted. I think of my father often and some of the thoughts that comfort me are thoughts of how much he loved life and music and me. It's an amazing feeling knowing that some one so loved by the world.... loves me. I miss him dearly. He is with me always. I want to thank you all for the loving and kind words towards my father. He lives on through us. God bless you ~Uranus (Rainy) Garay

  • @freein2339 well said. Im glad he could share his talent with us and made music

  • I've been a fan of Kool and the Gang since the 60s..Charles was always the anchor of the group. His solos was not loud and whinning but controlled and with purpose...I never met him but I'm glad I heard his sound...RIP my brother...

  • respect to the man, he's a funkmasta

  • i met Charles Smith and other band members in 1993 in Palermo/Sicily... after the concert we met in a "Pizzeria"

    that was awesomw

    R.i.P.

  • Charles was a great man and musician. In '71 we played on the same bill as Kool. We panicked since 90% of the songs we played then were Kool & the Gang. & quickly revised our repetoire. After we played Charles saw me in the bathroom and complemented me on the diminished 7's and augmented 9th's I was playing - I didn't know what that meant at the time (as a sax player) but I was thrilled that he took a moment to encourage a high school -age musician. Thank you Charles!
