Ray Charles Leon Russell Willie Nelson - A Song For You



Uploaded by: rhythmstick
Video Description:
From the DVD "Willie Nelson and Friends - Live & Kickin", it was Willie Nelson's 70th birthday party at New York City's famed Beacon Theatre on April 9, 2003. Leon and Willie take a verse, of this Leon Russell original, and let Ray finish it up, as only Ray (one-take) could. He died not long after this. Thanks Ray.

What a titanic performance by these three American Masters, but especially by Ray Charles. The emotion he puts into the lyrics puts goosebumps on my flesh. Leon wrote this, and many other great songs, and it is a damned shame he has never truly reached that zenith of commercial success that Willie and Ray achieved. Thank you for posting this wonderful video.
