Ray Charles dies at 73 - Jun 10, 2004

CNN.com - Ray Charles dies at 73 - Jun 10, 2004

I saw this the other day, and I was really saddened. I'm not really sure why, because I've never been a really huge Ray Charles fan, but I know that some of my heroes were. You've gotta admit there was some talent, there, and a good deal of adversity overcome when he went blind as a kid. I don't know if I'm just jumping on the bandwagon, or I just always come into things as they're dying, but I feel really moved, now. Maybe I'll have to try to check out some Ray Charles stuff, now... see what I've been missing.
