Ray Charles Robinson was born in Albany in the State of Georgia on September 23, 1930. Due to loss of sight in an accident at the age of six years!
"The Genius", as he was nicknamed, created his first group in 1947: The Maxim Trio "(in the style of" King Cole Trio )
was the true forerunner of the soul music with songs like "I got the woman," showing how he managed to transform gospel music and religious, into something secular but equally spiritual. Thanks also to his great vocal talent, he could turn any song; blues, pop , country, in something near and inner soul indeed. He took inspiration and courage as a result, lots of singers of color.
When you sit in front of a piano was compelling and addictive, and is still the most famous black artist respected and admired around the world. A lot of his success, both as an author as interpreter.
This star of the soul has raised his voice up to heaven June 10, 2004. The death was the result of some complications of liver disease
