A soul standard
Hey Thor 9 - your comment appears to indicate that you think Ray Charles wrote the song - not so - written by twp people: Gorrell/ Carmichael
I did not know that this song was based on the fact that he was banned from the State of Georgia in the past. I learned of this when I watched a movie done on his life.
All day long thank you for being afriend

The definition of "A TRUE CLASSIC"
"Ray Charles" a genius and a consummate business man. He purchased his own Music Catalog unknown in those days for an African American to command this type of business savvy. He is missed, but never forgotten. Fondly, Martha Fight On!
"Georgia on my Mind" by Ray Charles 'nuff said!
Is there a better way to start your morning?

This is such a sweet song, my Mother's favorite. Growing up I heard this daily but, I have so many memories of Mother so I do cherish this song.
