Description
The way the Raelets bloom behind Ray on I Can’t Stop Loving You still catches me off guard, that held phrase turning a country lament into gospel sway. Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music took jukebox standards and let Charles thread blues phrasing through plush strings and punchy brass. You Don’t Know Me floats on brushed snare and hushed strings, every pause giving his voice room to ache. Then Bye Bye Love swings hard, horns grinning while the rhythm section keeps it crisp.
This LP pressing does what you want for a record like this: low end sits deeper and the imaging is tidier, so the orchestra breathes and Ray stays center stage. If you prefer to order from home, you can buy Ray Charles records online through us. Spin it in a quiet Melbourne evening and you hear why this crossover felt radical yet obvious.
File it next to Sam Cooke and the early 60s Nashville sound in your shelves, where pop craft meets country sentiment without a seam showing. Nearly every track has a “how did he do that” moment, but the ease is the point.
