Later in life he had problems with drugs. But being taught piano and his enormous talent helped him along the road to an international career.

His famous and energy-packed songs such as “What’d I Say” are engrained in the listener’s ear, “I got a woman” by Ray Charles was covered by Elvis for his first record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJust how versatile Ray was as a singer and pianist is shown by his “Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music”: the record was regarded at its issue as a break in style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy Ray Charles was respectfully called “The genius” will be obvious\u003cbr\u003efrom listening to these CDs.
