Talk:James Ray (singer)

Untitled
How is it that so little is known of James Ray? There is no known documentation of his death, or even a consensus on when he died. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.149.215.97 (talk • contribs) 06:38, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

1964 reports
The newspaper reports linked here relate to the arrests in Baltimore in 1964 and 1965 of James Ray Jr., "unemployed singer", aged 27 in 1964 so born circa 1937, who had been in jail between 1953 and 1962. I don't see any evidence at all that the person arrested in Baltimore is the same person as the one who is the subject of this article, who was born in 1941 as James Jay Raymond and recorded 1959-61.
