Product Description & Reviews
At last here's a collection that covers his ENTIRE career, from Atlantic through ABC, 103 sides and five decades of essential American music in all! You name the essential Ray Charles track and it's here: Hallelujah I Love Her So; Lonely Avenue; (Night Time Is) the Right Time; What'd I Say (Parts I & II); Sticks and Stones; Georgia on My Mind; One Mint Julep; Hit the Road Jack; I Can't Stop Loving You; You Are My Sunshine; Busted; Crying Time , and more. An 80-page book traces the life and times of a true genius. If anyone deserves his own section in record stores, it's Ray Charles. Witness this Charles box set, a full five-disc career retrospective that follows smaller packages concentrating on his early R&B (The Birth of Soul) and Blues + Jazz work. In addition to those styles, we get Ray's stabs at Nat "King" Cole/Charles Brown urban blues ("Baby Let Me Hold Your Hand"), handfuls of country songs ("I Can't Stop Loving You"), definitive readings of the American songbook ("Georgia on My Mind," "Come Rain or Come Shine"), and personal claims on the '60s soul he made possible ("I Don't Need No Doctor"). Whether you're a newcomer or a veteran Charles fan, this impeccably selected box is for you. --Rickey Wright
