    He was an amazing musician/performer. I was inspired every single time I saw him doing his thing on the piano and belting out in his soulful voice...

    I am definitely stopping at Spec's on the way home tonight.

    Rest in Peace, Brother Ray. And thank you for the show at the House of Blues in 1995.

    Amazing. Made a very good and lasting impression on me as a little kid. I thought "that man is blind, he does not care. He is happy and spending a lot of his time making other people happy." Then I grew up to be a bitter nerd, but still.

    RIP. :cool:

    Reagan, Charles, who will be the last to round out the trifecta this week? the Pope or Bob Barker?

    Saw him with my daughter at the Hollywood Bowl a few summers ago. It was a beautiful night. His rendition of Georgia on my Mind that night ranks as one of my alltime most memorable music moments.

    RIP

    If there is any justice in the world, it will be Michael Bolton.
