This is a great performance from Ray Charles and a nice sounding recording, too. This wasn't a very good time period for Ray when it came to commercial success, his record sales and air play declined dramatically. One bright moment came in April of 1979, when Ray's version of "Georgia On My Mind" was made the official state song for the state of Georgia. I was lucky enough to catch Ray Charles on tour a few short years before his death. He said it was his birthday and the backup singers lead the audience in singing "Happy Birthday" to Ray. Ray Charles died on June 10, 2004 from acute liver disease, he was 73.

Did The Lizard King really die in that bathtub in Paris, or did he fake his own death to run off and live in Africa as a poet? There was always some kind of theory or story that supported that fact. There was an account of a hitchhiker in Rolling Stone magazine, that claimed he was picked up by Morrison and given a ride back to Morrison's hidden home where they indulged in women and drugs for days. The death of Jim Morrison will always be shrouded in mystery due to the fact no autopsy was performed. Also it's been said that when some one arrived in Paris to find out what happened, Jim was in a sealed casket and Pamela had a signed death certificate. The official ruling was Jim Morrison died of heart failure due to a heroin overdose July 3, 1971, he was 27. Ray Manzarek died from bile duct cancer May 20, 2013, he was 74.
