I too didn't know that about Johnny Ray. Though I'd recommend his music to anyone exploring the roots of rock 'n' roll. "Cry" may be the very first great blue-eyed soul song.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I got my Xmas present from my jazzbo bro -- he sent me the Thelonious Monk Quartet w/Coltrane at Carnegie Hall. It is so, so, SO good.

I got this for my brother. With every intention of putting it on our iPod before we leave his vicinity.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Has anybody been playing with the Music Search feature on Google?
If you put in "Tom Waits" you get his albums ordered by title or release date and reviews off them, plus songs about him, etc.
Interesting.
