Betty Carter/Ray Charles great together
I love their rendition of "Alone
Together" and "Every Time We Say Goodbye" is excellent. I always considered Ray Charles a blues singer, and still
do, but his voice and style compliment jazz artist Betty
Walker's on this album to a T.
If you want to hear Ray Charles at his softest, get this album. The only criticism I have is there is too much accompaniment by the orchestra and back-up singers.


Baby It's Cold Outside
I got more than I bargained for. I had been looking for "Baby It's Cold Outside" by Ray Charles & Betty Carter together. I listened to the clips and wow, I had to buy the whole thing. Cost was not a factor. I had to have it and I got it. Great CD!.


love it
We all know about Ruby and Georgia but Nancy with the laughing face is so good . I was named after the song "Diane" which was popular during WWII but can only remember it sung by my dad , who is no longer with us. The portion with Betty Carter is a hoot and fun listening to them together , especially "Baby it's cold outside ". I would not have known about this CD , had not my brother told me he heard it on serius radio and said he liked Ray's version of "Diane". .


A Classic
Carter and Charles are at their peak here and the arrangements support their artistry magnificently. This is one of the very finest collaborations ever recorded. This is an absolute treasure--at least that part of the CD that has both of them singing. The Charles addendum of his own solo songs is mediocre at best.


it doesn't get any better than this !!
Nothing pervious or since has captured the pathos of those moments; then end of a love affair and the hope that tomorrow, " We may be together again". I am a big "Moonlighting" fan and searched for years, after the show went out of production, to find a copy of the recording played over the last three minutes of the "Blue Moon Detective Agency". Ray and Betty bring those feelings to life better than anyone who has ever recorded that musical prose. I play that song once or twice a week and never get tired of hearing it.
