I've seen Ray live, Nov 17th 2001. It was in a small townhall, probably 200 guests and I was about 20 meter away from him. But I doubt he had seen me ð
Most impressive on that show wasn't Ray himself, the show was on his last days an as old man. It was his foregroup and accompaniment: three black rnb singer ladies in their best age with amazing voices. Similar to the accampaniment ladies of this video. Except, they weren't in black and white and voices were much more present. Although the dresses had a very similar cut, but silver instread of grey.
Ray himself wasn't that long on stage, the ladies made the evening. And it was a wonderful evening! ðķïļ
