America needs to come to terms with this. Two black blind men created an anthology of music. Both with Jim Crowe. What does freedom cost? We cannot forget. The American public enjoyed and endorsed their success because of the exaltedness of their musical expression.
The Orchestration in all of Ray's songs mae you wanna cry, along with his vocals.i urge the readers to listen to Marvin Gayes version of Yesterday also.
I’m from 6 years in the future, or at least from when this comment was written, and today’s “music”, if that is what you want to call it, is even worse

I think I saw Ray once telling how that piece of music was taught to him by a man named Wiley Pittman who owned the store next to the house Ray and his mother lived in at Greenvale, Florida. Apparently Pittman was a keen amateur ragtime pianist and taught Ray a lot when he was very young.
Somewhere It was stated, that Ray knew what a song should have sounded like better than the original artist. I hate to admit it might be better than Paul's.
You're wrong. It's obvious that someone can replace them. I'm not here to piss you of, but millions of years will come. Do you even think that someone won't replace them in those millions of years?
@@pauloferreira313 Not what Ray went through, with segregation his blindness. The man went from rags to being in my opinion the best voice in the industry. Nobody will ever replace the genuis who invented soul. Ray Charles forever!
It's no wonder Paul McCartney loved Ray Charles so much. He's the only one who can cover a Beatle's song!
true
gsdsteve And made it even better than the original.
exactly!!!!!!!!!
Si hermano. Aleluya
Check out The Seekers version of Yesterday. It’s very good as well.
best version of Yesterday ever.
between this one and marvn gaye version, so beautiful
The genius at work. He cannot be bettered. 🎶🎵🎼🎸🎷
I'm 66 years old. My dad loved to hear him sing, loved his voice.
Nothing better...ever.
This arrangement and performance by brother Ray and the entire orchestra is thrilling!
As a music major hearing the Traumerei as the intro to Yesterday is the icing on the cake for this performance. The man was such a showman.
I agree, and I have a masters degree in music.
+Abe Grimm I agree, too, and I know how to turn on RUclips

The cake was Paul McCartney having the dream. The icing was Ray Charles remake. This is dreamcake & ice cream.
I can’t believe I almost past away with out ever listening to this incredible combination!
this is truly breath taking rest in peace Ray Charles and thank you so much
Ray Charles always gave his deep hearted soul in everyway .
Ray Charles a musical 💎. Will live on his songs forever 💙..RIP
Ray Charles doesn't play music, he let his emotion play.
Ray, was a great entertainer and an extraordinary showman; and that is an understatement.
THE GENIUS! He can take any song and make it his own.
In the mist of all those instruments a powerhouse of a voice that would bring you to tears in aw.
GENIUS
The incredible Ray Charles no one will ever be like him God rest his soul he brought so many great memories to so many people thanks for posting
Saw him live in 1973 it was a small venue maybe 300 people in a place called The Twin Coaches outside of Pittsburgh man what a show!!
Impecable
As a mistro,/drum major , /conductor im very intrigued on ray Charles set of mind wooooowwww!!!!!! Sincerely Bret Stewart
this epic beauty reminds me of tomorrow. saint Ray
Absolutely a masterpiece video, never the world will have other Ray to give us master playings like this.

I see the sunset of life, when i hear this performance.
Beautifully put my friend...
From great artist to another great artist...Paul McCartney to Ray Charles...
0:38 He (the man behind Ray) recognised that li'l tick of soul...
Très émouvant, difficile de mettre des mots...
Great version of the beatle classic.
Voz embriagadoramente bela e sofrida meu amigo. José Serra São Luís Maranhão bra.
FOREVER
As a mistro im amazed

This is what you call music not like todays crap
I’m from 6 years in the future, or at least from when this comment was written, and today’s “music”, if that is what you want to call it, is even worse
@@cjm-jr9xk two years in the future from this comment. May god help us all
I wish I have the same voice with THE GENIUS himself. I would prolly sing all day
Sublime.
Great! One can actually taste the emotion....
I like very much this version
Enjoyed your music so much Ray. Thank you for sharing your music.👍
Awesome Ray version
I don't care what you focus like it or not but I love it

A Master of music,
Grenzenlos gut der Charles.💕
Super beautiful!🤩
Ray Charles, heard for the first time one day of july 1960 (Lonely Avenue song) and never forget that amazing moment.
An all time great Musician. "What a life" is in fact a perfect way to describe this man.

Wow I wish you could see me applauding you uncle Ray. You did it uncle !! I salute you
ray ray
I dunno why but of all cover to this song that I heard this is the only one that gave me chills.
my god he is blind and doesnt make a singel mistake on the piano! amazing
N3tZraC Some people says that when you become blind your other senses become magnified.
It’s also due to loads (and I mean loads) of practice and muscle memory
I have never heard Rays rendition. Thanks for sharing!!!!!! This is amazing....
Oh my God! Ray is beautiful!
Beautiful
Yesterday is a sad song. It makes sense a bluesman would NAIL it.

Hermoso, bello, genial. Gracias.
incroyable, quel génie !
És grande, muy talento
Perfecto. I love it.
Chapeau
Sensacional!❤
Il Genio
Cissy Houston (yes her mother) has a great live rendition of this song still on utube for now
Concuerdo plenamente con quién comentó " Silencio....Dios está tocando "
best virsion
sublime!
Great rendition ! Ray and his style, no other ! MV
Ray Charles brought a few of the Beatles songs to an entirely different level, no discredit meant for the band.
Fantastic
me vine, me vine, maestro, hasta para hacer covers era un maestro
U
Il suo canto è uno stile unico un'opera d'arte
Величайший музыкант
Yesterday, song with more covers. Ray Charles made a great version
Ray !!
NOBODY DISLIKED THIS.
Quelle merveille !!!
“yesterday” AHHHHH!!!!!
Oooow!
Grazie Ray .....
That's called a lead in. Mysterious this one as it gives no clue as to what's to follow. That's the genius of Ray.
Yesterday..................
カッコよすぎるやろ、これ。
@FutureAbe before I saw this, I had been learning how to play it for some time... WOW RAY JUST WOW
Ray faz nessa música, o "Homem e o piano serem um único ser". Veja com atenção.
Somewhere It was stated, that Ray knew what a song should have sounded like better than the original artist. I hate to admit it might be better than Paul's.
sure there will be no other Ray Charles again, or even a "new" Paul McCartney... irreplaceable artists!
You're wrong. It's obvious that someone can replace them. I'm not here to piss you of, but millions of years will come. Do you even think that someone won't replace them in those millions of years?
Ray Charles, a singular talent. There will NEVER be another like him!!
Everyone is uniquely different from each other. You cannot replace human beings much less great artists
There was only one Ray Charles! We will never see another like him.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍/10❤😪👏
sublime...mauro dessy
De mais! !!!!!!!!!
❤❤❤
Oh sweet Jesus, Ray you're playing Schumann ? I NEED NO DRUG FOR TODAY .. REST IN PEACE DEAR MASTER
Difícil ouvir sem se emocionar!!!
That is correct. I have the whole concert and interviews and he states that Mr Pittman taught him those old melodies.
Ray Charles - Yesterday > The Avengers
That's How epic this was!
