I grew up singing Ray Charles and Jimmy Reed.

I knelt at the altar of Ray Charles for years. I worked at a restaurant, and that's all there was on the jukebox.

Well I don't think I've scored my life exclusively to Ray Charles.

The first piece of music that captured my imagination was probably Ray Charles Live At Newport.

I would've given my right arm to do something on the 'Ray' film, the movie about Ray Charles.

When you listen to Ray Charles, there's never any doubt whose voice that is.
