Ray Charles is proof that the best music crosses all boundaries, reaches all denominations. He could do any type of music, and he always stayed true to himself. Its all about his soulTheres a reason they called Ray Charles the GeniusHe showed there are no limitations, not for someone as good as he is. Whatever Ray Charles did, whatever he touched, he made it his own. Hes his own genre. Its all Ray Charles music now. Van Morrison, Rolling Stone
