His career spanned over 50 years. His final public appearance was on April 30, 2004, at the dedication of his music studio as a historic landmark in Los Angeles</p><p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;">This year at<strong> PATH JAZZ NIGHT</strong> there is a double treat. <strong>The Jazz & Blues Revue</strong> will do a <strong>Tribute to Ray Charles,</strong> and special guest vocalist <strong>Eric Benet</strong> will also perform.

Tickets are $200, and all proceeds go to <strong>PATH Ventures</strong> to help build supportive housing for LA's homeless.</p><p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"><a href="https://trellis.org/path-ventures-jazz-night" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><strong><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">BUY TICKETS HERE </span></strong></a></p><p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"> <strong>Ray Charles sings Georgia:</strong> There are MANY live versions of this song on YouTube, but I think this is my favorite, from Midnight Special in 1976. Check out the hairstyles! Ray breaks it down around 3:00 and then brings it home with a rousing finish.

<p style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; text-align: center; word-break: break-word;"><em><span style="font-size: 26px; line-height: 39px;"><strong>A Change Is Gonna Come</strong></span></em></p>
<p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"> This is a big week, for the country and for me personally. We have a new President and a new administration, and I have a <a href="https://www.jazzweek.com/charts/" rel="noopener" target="_blank" title="https://www.jazzweek.com/charts/"><strong>Top 5 jazz album on the charts!</strong></a> It certainly feels like change is coming.</span></p>
<p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Like most R&B artists of his time, <b>Sam Cooke</b> focused on singles; in all, he had 29 top 40 hits on the pop charts and more on the R&B charts. He was a prolific songwriter and wrote most of the songs he recorded. He also had a hand in overseeing some of the song arrangements. </span></p>
<p style="line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Sam Cooke's career met an untimely end in 1964 when he was shot by a motel manager at the end of a drunken evening gone terribly bad. He was 33 years old.</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">If you have watched the new movie "One Night In Miami" you know that the movie ends with a performance of <b>"A Change Is Gonna Come"</b> by Leslie Odom Jr. who does a fantastic job in his portrayal of Sam Cooke. The song was released after Sam's death as a B-side to a single. <span style="line-height: 18px;">"<u><strong><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Change_Is_Gonna_Come" style="color: black;" title="A Change Is Gonna Come">A Change Is Gonna Come</a></strong></u>"</span> is considered a classic protest song from the era. It became a top 40 pop hit and a top 10 R&B hit. </span></p>
<p style="line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Here is the original single by Sam Cooke:</span></p>
<p style="line-height: 18px; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><a href="https://youtu.be/wEBlaMOmKV4" rel="noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/wEBlaMOmKV4</a></span></p>
<p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center; word-break: break-word;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">And here is a fantastic performance by Jennifer Hudson, one of the truly under-appreciated soul singers of her generation. </span></p>

Kahn</b> and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Pat Kelley </b>join forces
to create <b>DreamCatcher</b>, a new 12-song set. Their piano/guitar quartet
sound is so simpatico, it was only a matter of time before they would put out
an album. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DreamCatcher</b> brings us
standards ranging from <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Stardust</b>
(1927) to <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight</b>
(1972), as well as a few new originals. As with all <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">George Kahn</b> albums, there are plenty of subtle tributes to the jazz
greats, like <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Dave Brubeck, The Modern
