Ray Sings, Basie Swings

Album by Ray Charles & The Count Basie Orchestra

Ray Sings, Basie Swings is a posthumous release pairing previously unreleased 1970s live vocals by Ray Charles with newly recorded performances by the Count Basie Orchestra, blending soul, rhythm and blues, and big band jazz. Issued in 2006, it reconstructs concert tapes by isolating Charles’s vocals and replacing the original backing with the Basie band.
First released: 3rd October 2006
