Obituary - Raymond Robinson
ROBINSON, Raymond Age 58, of Dayton, passed away May 14, 2013. No service. Bradford - Connelly & Glickler Funeral Home.

Published in Dayton Daily News on May 24 2013

Two lines that failed to describe one of the most gifted musician I ever played with in a band. Ray played bass, James Robinson, Ray's older brother was also a gifted guitarist. These two guys could read each other minds when playing. I miss them both.

Here is a clip from 1980 when Ray, James and Mark Holland (Little Richard's current drummer) played as 'BLACKMALE' Saint Patrick's Day at UD.

I'm very sad to hear this, T. :(

My prayers are with Ray's family and friends.
