Artist: Ray Charles Title: The Complete Country & Western Recordings 1959-1986 Label: Rhino Release Date: 1998 Format: MP3 @ 320 K
This four-CD Rhino anthology includes both of the classic MODERN SOUNDS albums as well as every country song recorded during Charles' subsequent career, including various raffish '80s duets with such legends as Hank Williams Jr., George Jones and Willie Nelson. Looking back, the most remarkable thing about Charles' country output wasn't that a southern soul artist would have a winning way with a country tune. Rather, it was that Charles popularized "pure" country music for the nation at large, black and white alike.
