"He blurred the boundaries of musical genres in that he effortlessly crossed over from soul to blues to country to jazz. Somehow, he had the gift of breaking down those barriers and being successful in different genres." -- John Burk, producer of Charles' last album, "Genius Loves Company," featuring duets with old friends and lifelong admirers, including Willie Nelson, Diana Krall, Gladys Knight and Elton John

"When he started singing, that was it. Everyone else was playing for second." -- Bruce Hornsby, singer-pianist.

Steta, svet je ostao bez jos jedne legende u muzici

Da, polako izumiru svi oni koji su nosili pravu muziku....

Hit the road Jack...

Da,jedan od najboljih muzicara sveta...Inace,to Ameri trenutno zale,a sutra ce opet skakati oko Britney Spears!
To je surovi sou-biznis

Nije to ista grupa ljudi koja je slusala njega i koja slusa nju... ne mesaj to nikad... to je svetogrdje.

OK dady

Ali ta grupa ljudi koji slusaju takvu muziku
polako ostaje bez svojih muzicara...
