Ray Charles
Perse completamente la vista all'età di sei anni, forse a causa di un glaucoma. Seppe coniugare sonorità diverse, dal rhythm and blues alla musica country, dal Vocal jazz al piano blues fino al soul blues.Il brano ''Georgia on My Mind'' è stato il suo maggior successo. Nel 1990 partecipò, classificandosi al secondo posto, al Festival di Sanremo dove interpretò in coppia con Toto Cutugno la canzone ''Gli amori''. Il suo ultimo contributo alla musica è stato la produzione di un disco di duetti con B.B. King, Elton John, Norah Jones e Johnny Mathis. ''The Genius'' - come era stato soprannominato per il suo grande talento artistico, nel 1980 apparve nel film ''The Blues Brothers''. Frank Sinatra lo chiamò "l'unico vero genio nel nostro campo".
Nel 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine lo nominò 10º tra i 100 più grandi artisti di tutti i tempi e 2º nella classifica del 2008 dei 100 più grandi cantanti di sempre.
Il sopra citato brano ''Georgia on My Mind'' - assieme ad altri motivi come ''I Can't Stop Loving You'', ''Unchain My Heart'', ''Hit the Road Jack'' - gli hanno valso tredici Grammy. da Wikipedia
