Product Details
The pairing of Ray Charles and Count Basie was always inevitable, two titans whose shared roots in blues, swing, and the sanctified church made them natural counterparts. Charles recorded these vocals the same year he released *Through the Eyes of Love*, and hearing them finally set against the Basie band's trademark precision reveals just how deeply his phrasing lived inside the tradition.
Double vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Reissue of this 2006 release. Ray Sings, Basie Swings is an album that mixes previously unreleased Ray Charles vocal performances from 1973 with newly recorded instrumental tracks by the contemporary Count Basie Orchestra.
