"Music's been around a long time, and there's going to be music long after Ray Charles is dead," he told the Washington Post in 1983. "I just want to make my mark, leave something musically good behind. If it's a big record, that's the frosting on the cake, but music's the main meal."

Peace Ray. You've earned it.

I wouldn't expect someone from Norway to know who Ray Charles was... Just as I'm sure they don't expect me to know some popular Norway singer.

Not a die hard fan, but he had some good tunes and has influenced the industry so much, he will be missed.

I heard a few months ago Ray Charles, BB King and Aretha Franklin got together and cut a new song.

Can't wait to hear it!
