Ray Charles was on another planet

His music is still better than most of the stuff today and probably going forward for another 100 years

[tedharralston]

smooth is the word. He didnt have to sing at all, he had it with the piano lick. great job

[thebayoubreakers]

I wish I known about this song when I was in highschool. I could've got alot of whoopie. Young kid with an old soul

"Makin' Whoopee." An all-American classic.

[joseblanco]

Ray ist the piano man of history, one of the most important in the universe of music. Inmortal black soul forever. Now play piano in the sky with God in the inmortal pantheon.

I can imagine my grandparents listening to this and laughing at themselves. Like this is so raunchy! 😁

[kylegarshott]

I've listend to this more then anything in life. Thank you Ray, a true genius

[sibsbubbles]

Best version of this hands down. They don't call him 'Genius' for nothin'.

[coloradobloom]

The ultimate version of this song! I discovered it 50 years ago on this album. Still love it to this day!

[randytaylor]

Something about hearing this song at everything is quiet. Don't know why but it's something about the blues when you're all by yourself. It's almost like you hear it in a different kind of way. Probably just me. Ray was phenomenal!!!

[drno]

All I can say is, quiet, genius at work...

[garryholt]

Doesn't get any better. A true genius.

[susandiane]

The definitive version of this classic!

[aarongamaliel]

Wow! The unforgettable Ray. We will not experience an artist like him in centuries to come.

[feliciawilliams]

OMG this is the very best version of this song. I had thought The Fabulous Baker Boys with Michelle Pfeiffer was the best version but I have now been proven wrong. This is the BEST version of this song! I love love this....go Ray, go...that band, wheeww!

[TommieCadi]

This is awesome. genius, smoothly intricate and effortless perfection freely flowing through Ray. We thank God for you, Ray, and we miss you, but you are always with us.

[gsdsteve]

this is from an album called Live in Concert. Recorded at the Hollywood Shrine auditorium in 1963.

[GerryMATW]

...and that's why he's called 'The Genius'.

[davidswain]

Makin' whoopee. Ray gets it off to a tee. He was great.

[sibsbubbles]

Never a dull tune with Ray.  So glad I found this.  It's probably my favorite version of this tune.  It always makes me giggle.
