"We are saddened by the news of Ben E. King's passing. King started his career in the late 1950s with The Drifters, singing hits including "There Goes My Baby" and "Save The Last Dance For Me". After going solo, he hit the US top five with "Stand By Me" in 1961. We thank Mr. King for his song "Stand By Me," as it transformed Playing For Change from a small group of individuals into a global movement for peace and understanding." Playing4change
