I love how Ray Charles always looks like he’s having a blast performing

Ray Charles isn't dead, he just hit the road and isn't coming back no more

[@AnnaLVajda]

It's incredible when a piano player that age still has such supple joints in their fingers to play like that, I was thinking the same thing watching a Jerry Lee Lewis performance today.

He had magic hands

No one could match Lewis in his prime

[@Giannis_kyr]

You are a lucky one for seeing Jerry Lee Lewis performing

[@joshuabrooks4907]

Especially since he's doing it by feel, not sight.

[@VenomStryker]

This song always makes me remember John Candy.

[@platecrumb7161]

He burnt that car to the ground. “We almost hit a deer”! Lmao

[@BohepansTheThird]

"You're going the wrong way!" And then John Candy suddenly looks like the devil. Such a classic movie.

Just watched that (again) yesterday. Great scene. Great music. And it was written by a record producer of all people.

[@mareklisowski44]

I love it, the man is genius, imagine playing without seeing the audience, only sounds while making, recording, performing live and the playing and listening to the reaction. Genius, absolute genius artist

[@nappyk96]

A childhood friend of mine is blind and he can play bass guitar like you wouldn't believe. I admire him a lot and the late great Ray Charles people like them prove that just because your disabled it doesn't make you helpless which is something I do my best to live by having been born disabled myself.

[@DUCKSAREEVILLLLLLLL]

My Mom loved Ray. Early 1953, they would have called this rhythm and blues in the day; confined to black stations, but this was rock and roll.

[@BOOOZB]

The Mess Around ...whose author is not very well known : Ahmet Ertegün , the fundator of Atlantic records .It made one of the first hit of Ray Robinson ...

[@simonrussell4986]

To be fair, as the co-founder of Atlantic Records amongst many things, I'd say he was pretty well known. On the street probably not up there with Quincy (Jones, not M.E.) or Carole King / Burt Bacharach, but "not very well" is a little off the mark.

[@joe6096]

That was captured well in the movie "Ray" with Jamie Foxx as Ray Charles. It was also insinuated that this was when they really nailed Ray's sound that they'd been trying to find, and Ray took it and ran with it.
