The Ray Charles story is full of paradoxes, part and parcel of the American Dream. Rags to riches. Triumph overcoming tragedy. Light transcending darkness: The name Ray’Charles is on a Star on Hollywood Boulevard's Walk of Fame. His bronze bust is enshrined in the Playboy Hall of Fame. There is the bronze medallion cast and presented to him by the French Republic on behalf of its people. There are the Halls of Fame: Rhythm & Blues, Jazz, Rock & Roll There are the many gold records and the 10 Grammys. There is the blackness and the blindness. There was the extreme poverty; there was the segregated - South into which he was born. itis music, Ray Charles’ single driving force, that ‘alapulted a poor, black, blind, orphaned teenager from there to here. “Iwas born with music inside me, That's the only explanation | know of..." he remarks in his autobiography “Music was one of my parts. ..Like my blood. Itwas a force already with me when | arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me — like food or water. “Music is nothing separate from me. It is me. ‘You'd have to remove the music surgically.” Ray Charles Robinson was not bom biind, only poor. The first child of Aretha and Bailey Robinson was born in Albany, Ga, on September 23, 1930. He hit the road early, at about three months, when the Robinsons moved across the border to Greenville, FL Itwas the height of the Depression years. And the Robinsons had started out poor. "You hear folks talking about being poor. Charler recounts. “Even compared to other blacks... we were on the bottom of the ladder looking up at everyone else. Nothing below us ‘except the ground.” Ittook three years, starting when Ray Charles was four, for the country boy who loved to look at the blazing sun at its height, the boy who loved to try to ‘atch lightning, the boy who loved to strike matches to '8¢¢ their fierce, brief glare, to travel the path from light todarkness, But Ray Charles has almost seven years of sight memory — colors, the things of backwoods country, and the face of the most important person in his early life: his mother, Aretha Robinson. St. Augustine's was tne Florida state school for the deaf and blind, Ray Charles was accepted as a charity student, He learned to Braille and to type. He became a skilled basket weaver. He was allowed to develop his great gift of music. He discovered mathematics and its correlation to ‘music, He learned to compose and arrange music in his head, telling out the parts, one by one. He remained at St. Augustine's until his mother's death when he set out “on the road again” for the first time as a struggling professional musician. The road to greatness was no picnic, proverbial ot literal. In fact, while earning his dues around and about Florida, he almost starved at times, hanging out at various Musicians’ Locals, picking up gigs when he could He began to bulld himself a solo act, imitating Nat “King” Cole. When he knew it was time to head on, he asked a friend to find him the farthest point from Florida on a map of the continental US. Seattle, WA. For Ray Charles, the turning point. In Seattle he became a minor celebrity in local clubs. There he met an even younger musician, Quincy Jones, whom he took under his wing, marking the beginning of an intertwining of two musical lifetimes. twas from Seattle that he went to Los Angeles to cut his first professional recording. And it was in Seattle, with Gossady McGee, that he formed the McSon Trio — Robin (son) and (Mc) Gee — in 1948, the first black group to have a sponsored TV show in. the Pacific Northwest. Along the way he'd shortened his name in deference to the success of “Sugar” Ray Robinson, As Ray Charles he toured for about a year with ‘Lowell Fulsom's band. He formed a group and played with singer Ruth Brown. He played the Apollo, the landmark showcase for black talent. He aspired to Carnegie Hall, then as now epitomizing the pinnacle of artistic success. ‘These were also the years that brought Charles the first band of his own, his first big hit record, “I Got A Woman.” By the early 1960's Ray Charles had accomplished his dream. He'd come of age musically. He had become a great musician, posting musical milestones. along his route. He'd made it to Carnegie Hall. The hit records (‘Georgia,” "Born to Lose") successively kept climbing fo the top of the charts, He’d made his first triumphant European concert tour in 1960 (a feat which, except for 1965, he's repeated at least once a year ever since), DE eRe ee) band in 1961.

And I ost.” This was the incident that propelied Ray Charles into an active role in the quest for racial justice, the development of social consciousness that led him to friendship with moral and financial support of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. in the 1960's. “early on, | decided that if | was going to shoot craps on anyone's philosophy, | was Putting my money on Martin Luther King, Jr.” “figured if | was going to pick up my cross cin folow someone, it could only be Martin. +) © -Bespite his deep commitment to King and the cause of black Americans, Charles came to the logical conclusion that there was no place for him physically in the front lines: “First, | wouldn't have known when to duck when they started throwing broken bottles at my head. And | told that to Martin personally. “When he intentionally broke the law, he was hauled off to jail. And when you go to jail, you need money for lawyers, for legal research, for court fees, for food for the marchers. | saw that as my function; | helped raise money.’ His awareness of racial injustice was not limited to the home front: The same years he fought the war against racial injustice in the American South found in Charles a growing awareness of racial injustice abroad, particularly the notorious policy of apartheid in South Africa. Uniformed anti-apartheid groups have ‘occasionally questioned Charles’ 1981 concert appearances there, “It burns me up,” he retorts acidly, “because People should've checked my record on Civil rights before they opened their mouths. “How can anyone tell me where | can play my music? | went to South Africa because people — black and white — wanted to hear me, ‘And it was in my contracts that the blacks wouldn't be seated in the rear.” Charles’ manager, Joe Adams, himself black, further sets the record straight: “In the late 1970's, our office received a number of requests from several of the new Black Nations of South Africa for Ray Charles to come and perform. These requests were answered in 1981 when he made numerous appearances for these black nations. This tour represented the first totally integrated audiences in such major cities as Johannesburg and Capetown. He was approached to play Sun City for a huge fee. Instead he chose to play before totally black or integrated audiences with a fully integrated show. “As now, the orchestra consisted at the time of Asians, Latins, Caucasians, and blacks, al ‘of whom performed together on the same stages, traveled together on the same buses, and stayed at the same hotels — an unheard of feat in South Afica and one that could have brought severe penalties to all concerned.” Modes to the point of mum about his humanitarian and charitable activities, Ray Charles makes an exception for the State of Israel and world Jewry. ‘Among the many, the world leader Charles has most enjoyed meeting is David Ben-Gurion, with whom he had a conversation of many hours during a concert tour of Israel not long before Ben-Gurion’s death. ‘And the award among the hundreds he claims to have touched him most is the Beverly Hills Lodge of the Binai Brith’s tribute to him as its "Man of the Year” in 1976. ven though I'm not Jewish,” he explains, ind even though I'm stingy with my bread, Israel is one of the few causes | feel good about supporting. “Blacks and Jews are hooked up and bound together by a common history of persecution. “if someone besides a black ever sings the real gut bucket blues, it'll be a Jew. We both know what it's like to be someone else’s footstool.” It all comes back to music, so inseparable from Ray Charles. Me keeps rolling along, doing what he does uniquely and wondrously well. Ray Charles is a national treasure and a global phenomenon for this obvious reason: He is a master of his soul; he is music; he is himselt. a 7 GEORGIA ON MY MIND Words by Music by STUART GORRELL HOAGY CARMICHAEL Slowly —_—_ “f bring — menor ries r ares Om ar Eat o7/6 ons ef & Be ge Makemethink of —Geor-gia, Why did we : pan?
