Remembering Patrick Swayze

Patrick Wayne Swayze (August 18, 1952 – September 14, 2009) was an American actor, dancer and singer-songwriter best-known for his roles in the hit films "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost". He was listed by People magazine as its "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1991.
He took Jennifer Grey's breath away as Johnny Castle ("Dirty Dancing"), made Demi Moore's eyes quiver with tears as Sam Wheat's spirit ("Ghost"), a and thrusted the pottery scene in the movie into mainstream pop consciousness. After all that, he turned his masculinity on its head as the motherly drag queen Vida Boheme in "To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything!" His rendition of "She's Like The Wind" on the soundtrack of "Dirty Dancing" was a radio hit in 1986, reaching #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
This mix, consisting of songs from the various movies he acted in, is a farewell tribute to him. He will always be remembered as the working class sensitive lover with a tender heart of gold; a rare combination of masculinity and athletic grace. RIP, Patrick.
