I had never hear...I was 13 when I saw this TV show. I had never heard of Ray Charles before nor had I seen anything like this (you wouldn't want to see what German TV usually broadcasted back then when it came to music). This TV moment, as confused and odd as it may seem from today's perspective, was a musical revelation for me: There is music with pure and sincere joy and energy that inevitably makes you move and lightens your heart! Ray Charles was the best musical ambassador that Bio could invite to bring this message to the Germans. I went to the record store the next day and bought a Ray Charles record, which I keep dearly still. For me music before and after this show were two different worlds. Thank you Ray Charles, thank you Alfred Biolek! Frank Vöhringerhttp://stimmfreiheit.ch/ueber_mich.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
