Title: The Very Best of (2CD)

Label: Disconforme

Cat No CDX7719

· This budget-price double CD collects Ray Charles’ best-known '50s and '60s singles, such as "What'd I Say", “I've Got A Woman”, “Georgia On My Mind”, “Unchain My Heart” & "Hit The Road Jack".

· The man's originality and infectious feeling shine through on each of these 40 tracks. Ray Charles was a musical genius : as vocalist, pianist, composer and interpreter of other people’s songs; and these abilities were apparent in any given genre, from blues to soul to gospel to jazz to country to R&B to old fashioned big band singing.

· Following his death in 2004, his stature as an artist of the highest order has been reinforced - recognising his immense influence on modern popular music (he virtually invented ‘soul’ music). This collection compiles the important recorded landmarks in the earlier decades of his outstanding career.

· 2CD Set - Deluxe edition with cardboard outer sleeve - 40 tracks - Total Time: 120.44 min. Splendid sound quality - new and careful 20-bit remastering. Includes comprehensive booklet.
