Craig King and Ray Charles

“That’s Him!” Ray Charles stood up and shouted. “No, No, no…Keep Playing!” Ray had found Craig King. Auditions were being held to fill the organist position in Ray’s ensemble. You’ve got to have big chops to fill Billy Preston’s shoes. Ray needed an organist to join the tour and finish it out in Preston’s absence. Craig King filled those shoes.
