I gotta admit I was not the biggest fan of Blues music.
I am not a fan of blues music I am more of a METAL guy, so I was not expecting much. I got this CD for America the Beautiful after hearing it at the end of the Mark Levine show. I now understand why people love Ray so much. The depth of his voice and the emotion that he broadcasts when he sings is undeniable. I like almost every song on this CD. The quality of the recordings are amazing!
It may seem a bit pricey for a CD but was well worth it to me.
Ray Charles
Ray Charles has a style that is unique and when he sings "America" it makes me proud to be an American. This is everything that I knew it would be. He is inspiring and evokes strong emotions with his singing.
Ray Charles Sings for America
No one can sing America The Beautiful better than
Ray Charles. I think this is one of the best patriotic cd that I have heard. I highly recommend this cd to anyone but especially a Ray Charles fan. Truly like it more each time I listen to it.
Ray Charles Sings for America
The songs are by far some of his very
best work. This is a great CD. We enjoyed it from start to finish.
Ray at his Patrotic Best
Everytime I hear it I get chills up an ddown my spine and a tear in my eye. I am the typical patrotic American and I just loved this collection of Ray Charles. I would recommend this to every and all Americans.
