One of the finest albums ever made. Very nice copy of Ray Charles' innovative album of soulful pop/jazzy big band/r&b interpretations of classic country and western tunes. This record was a game-changer for Charles and introduced mass audiences to his crossover style and brilliant voice. Every song is great, seriously. His performances are peerless. This is the original 1962 issue, in mono, and it plays beautifully. NOT all scratched up as you often see with this title--because people loved it so much they played it to death lol. Clear and solid sound, VG to VG+.
