Despite losing his sight at an early age, he never let his disability stop him from being a success and scored several R&B chart hits in the early 50s –- including… Read more in Amazon's Ray Charles Store

5.0 out of 5 stars If you like Ray - this is one you'll like, July 25, 2008

(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Genius Loves Company (Hybr) (Audio CD)
I was lucky and grew up when Ray Charles went through all his trials and tribulations. This recording with some of his genius friends is a wonderful collection of Ray's songs but with a SACD twist. SACD makes this just like you are sitting in a café listening to Ray and watch him move his head from side to side. Showman? He was among the top and it will take a whole lot to topple him.

3.0 out of 5 stars Music: Good... Sonics: Great!!!, October 6, 2008
This review is from: Genius Loves Company (Hybr) (Audio CD)
We all love the music and the man. I feel there was a bit to much "pop" influence though. To modern a twist on such greats. As far as the sound? This is a diffrent story indeed. If you have an afinity for the "high-end", "You will aprreciate it here. With ultra highend audio, any glich in the studio will be noticed, especially with vinal. This disc has many BUT, not one will deture from the performence itself. They are akin to the scraches in fine lether. I highly recomend this piece for many reasons. If nothing els, "GOD BLESS SACD AND RAY CHARLES!!!!" Please keep buying them and keep this flame alive!!!!!! "Just listen"

2.0 out of 5 stars Ray was past his prime, December 22, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Genius Loves Company (Hybr) (Audio CD)
Well recorded, but Ray was quite a bit past his prime and his voice is almost painful to listen to.
