A "Ray" of Sunshine

On another dank, dark day, here is a "Ray" of sunshine!

How great this man was -- miss him terribly. But thank God his music will live forever.

You'll love this one, Bob... Long to watch, but worth it

Thanks, Marguerite! Being a native Georgian, Superbob definitely enjoyed that video!

As for "You Are My Sunshine," some find it a tad depressing, but it is a song that lifts my spirits. Guess Superbob is an old sentimentalist.

Superbob also loves the many country versions. Here is one of the earliest, by Jimmie Davis, who would become Governor of Louisiana. ("You Are my Sunshine" is now one of the state songs of Louisiana.)

Since it is so gloomy and dark in many parts of the country this week, maybe this tune brings a little sunshine to some others. Hope so.

Another guy I miss.... Barry White.

"Paint Jam" is absolutely incredible, Marguerite. Makes me think that would be a neat way to move around to get in some exercise for Cooker's Throwdown, but I could never produce such a creative result.

LOL ... SB, I was getting ready to sent the youtube video when I noticed Marguerite beat me to it .... I'm a huge Ray Charles fan and had it saved in my favorites..... it is amazing .... Thanks for the reminder
