"Georgia on my mind..."

I was sad to learn that Ray Charles has died. He was 73 years old.

His Yahoo bio begins, "The word 'genius' just might be the most overused term in the entire pop music genre. 'Genius' was being used to describe Ray Charles, however, before it was being used to describe anyone else cutting pop singles--and, for once, the description was probably appropriate."

Lucky for us, we will have his music forever.
