For more info - http://www.eagle-rock.com/artist/44CCA4/Ray+Charles Ray Charles was one of the true pioneers of soul music. Born in Georgia in 1930 he was one of the first performers to mix gospel, R & B and jazz to create a new form of black pop music that would come to be known as soul. His voice and delivery were strikingly different and instantly recognisable. He had his first hits in the early 50's and was still hitting the charts into the 21st century. His death in June 2004 from liver disease was front page news around the world. This concert was filmed at the Montreux Jazz Festival on July 19, 1997 and features Ray Charles and his orchestra, led by sax player Al Jackson, and of course The Raelettes. The full performance is available on the Eagle Vision DVD "Live at Montreux 1997", out now. Georgia, Georgia, The whole day through Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind I'm say Georgia Georgia A song of you Comes as sweet and clear As moonlight through the pines Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you I said Georgia, Ooh Georgia, no peace I find Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind Other arms reach out to me Other eyes smile tenderly Still in peaceful dreams I see The road leads back to you Georgia, Georgia, No peace, no peace I find Just this old, sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind I said just an old sweet song, Keeps Georgia on my mind

I was there as a tourist and seen the concert announced, i got 1 of the last tickets (Lucky me) :D que genio rey charles  *Charles im 16, i wasn't raised on this kind of music. i was raised with many genres of music, from jazz, to hip hop, rock, to r&b. but i never heard this kind of music until i watched HIMYM. it was the episod when ted and victoria first met and You Dont Know Me performed by Michael Buble was playing in the background. when i found out who it was by, i added it to pandora and started listening and then suddenly Ray Charels came up and i have been hooked on this style ever since. and thats when i was 10.
