1	Genius Loves Company (2004) more music like this by Ray Charles Genius Loves Company is the last studio album Ray Charles completed before his death in June 2004. Prior to this, the last studio album he released was Strong Love Affair in 1996, which was a stab at modern pop, filled with new songs and given an adult contemporary sheen. It was not one of his most distinctive efforts, even when judged against his ... see all copies from $8.25! new only from $16.00!
2	The Very Best of Ray Charles [Rhino] (2000) more music like this by Ray Charles This 16-track budget package hits all the high notes of Brother Ray's rise to greatness. Starting in the '50s with classic Atlantic sides like "I've Got a Woman," "Hallelujah I Love Her So," "Night Time (Is the Right Time)," and "What'd I Say," the set also includes his landmark ABC country sides of the '60s ("I Can't Stop Loving You," "Georgia on ... see all copies from $7.47! new only from $7.47!
3	Anthology (1989) more music like this by Ray Charles Perhaps the best single CD collection of Ray Charles' '60s and '70s ABC-Paramount material. They've also been issued on two separate anthologies, but for someone who only wants the essential items, this disc has them all over its 20 tracks. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.90! new only from $14.78!
4	Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music [Bonus Tracks] (1988) more music like this by Ray Charles Less modern for its country-R&B blend (Elvis Presley and company did it in 1955) and lushly produced C&W tone (the Nashville sound cropped up in the late '50s) than for its place as a high-profile crossover hit, Modern Sounds in Country and Western fit right in with Ray Charles' expansive musical ways while on the Atlantic label in the '50s. In ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $11.11!
5	Ray Sings, Basie Swings (2006) more music like this by Ray Charles/Count Basie Orchestra Ray Sings, Basie Swings, huh? Hmm, well, yes and no. You see, the story goes something like this. In 2005, Concord Records exec John Burk, who produced Ray Charles' superb late-career, Grammy-winning Genius Loves Company, found a reel of tape simply labeled "Ray/Basie." Upon further analysis, it was determined that the 1973 recording featured Ray ... see all copies from $2.89! new only from $16.57!
6	Ray [Original Soundtrack] (2004) more music like this by Ray Charles Unlike the soundtrack for his Jerry Lee Lewis biopic Great Balls of Fire, director Taylor Hackford didn't have Ray Charles re-record his classic songs for the soundtrack of his Charles biopic, Ray! Instead, he selected 17 songs of Ray at his '50s and '60s peak, skillfully balancing selections from both Atlantic and ABC to create a surprisingly ... see all copies from $5.02! new only from $16.49!
7	My World (1993) more music like this by Ray Charles see all copies from $19.99! new only from $48.99!
8	The Spirit of Christmas (1985) more music like this by Ray Charles A fine holiday album for those who enjoy that type of thing. Ray Charles puts his inimitable spin on hymns, carols, and seasonal material, and does it well. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.00! new only from $10.00!
9	A Child's Celebration of Song (1992) more music like this by Various Artists This outstanding album offers children's classics of the past fifty years featuring original recordings of these great artists. Titles include: Sweet Honey in the Rock--"Little Red Caboose," and James Taylor--"Jelly Man Kelly," Loggins and Messina--"House at Pooh Corner," Judy Garland--"Over the Rainbow," Burl Ives--"Polly Wolly Doodle," Pete ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $9.64!
10	Ultimate Hits Collection (1999) more music like this by Ray Charles James Brown may be "the hardest working man in show business," Aretha Franklin may be the Queen of Soul, but as Ultimate Hits Collection proves, the most apt nickname in all of music may belong to Ray Charles: the Genius. Forget for a moment that fitting all of Charles' hits on a mere two CDs is not remotely possible. Almost any Ray Charles ... see all copies from $28.50! new only from $28.50!
11 view cover	The Genius of Ray Charles (1959) more music like this by Ray Charles Some players from Ray Charles' big band are joined by many ringers from the Count Basie and Duke Ellington bands for the first half of this program, featuring Charles belting out six songs arranged by Quincy Jones. "Let the Good Times Roll" and "Deed I Do" are highlights, and there are solos by tenorman David "Fathead" Newman, trumpeter Marcus ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $8.57!
12 view cover	The Genius After Hours (1961) more music like this by Ray Charles Taken from the same three sessions as The Great Ray Charles but not duplicating any of the performances, this set casts Charles as a jazz-oriented pianist in an instrumental setting. Brother Charles has five numbers with a trio (three songs have Oscar Pettiford on bass) and jams on three other tunes ("Hornful Soul," "Ain't Misbehavin'," and "Joy ... see all copies from $15.00! new only from $15.72!
13 view cover	The Best of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years (1994) more music like this by Ray Charles Taking one of the most interesting bodies of work in the history of American music and trying to narrow it down to one 20-song compact disc would seem to be the sort of project that's doomed to failure, and there's little arguing that this collection of Ray Charles's classic Atlantic Records sides merely skims the surface of some of the most ... see all copies from $16.24! new only from $21.32!
14 view cover	Atlantic Records 50 Years: The Gold Anniversary (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Adequately covering the rich legacy of Atlantic Records' first 50 years over only two CDs is an impossible task, even concentrating only on rock and R&B, so it would be difficult to expect Atlantic Records 50 Years: Gold Anniversary to offer anything more than a cursory overview. The compilation does illustrate the incredible depth and diversity ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $22.59!
15 view cover	Ray Charles Sings for America (2002) more music like this by Ray Charles The theme of this collection is, in large part, songs of patriotism, about specific American places, or testaments to the American spirit. Still, you do get the sense that the concept's rather vague, or at least has been applied pretty liberally in order to snag 20 songs that could fill up a collection to appeal to the national mood at the time of ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
16 view cover	More Music from Ray (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles Ever since Dirty Dancing in the late '80s, it has been an industry custom to follow a hit soundtrack with a sequel a few months after the original turned into a hit. By the mid-2000s, this practice was standard, and labels held back material from the original for the sequel, which would nevertheless pale in comparison to the original since, apart ... see all copies from $8.57! new only from $8.57!
17 view cover	Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music (1962) more music like this by Ray Charles Less modern for its country-R&B blend (Elvis Presley and company did it in 1955) and lushly produced C&W tone (the Nashville sound cropped up in the late '50s) than for its place as a high-profile crossover hit, Modern Sounds in Country and Western fit right in with Ray Charles' expansive musical ways while on the Atlantic label in the '50s. In ... see all copies from $3.25!
18 view cover	Genius & Friends (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles Atlantic/Rhino's 2005 Genius and Friends is the end result of a project Ray Charles initiated a few months before his death in June 2004. According to James Austin's liner notes, Charles called Austin in December of 2003, asking if he could find the masters to an unreleased duets record Ray recorded in 1997 and 1998. Austin found the tapes, but ... see all copies from $8.00! new only from $10.32!
19 view cover	Something Special for Young Lovers (1964) more music like this by Ray Charles Singers While the name may remain the same, this Ray Charles has no connections whatsoever to the R&B legend of "Georgia on My Mind" and "What'd I Say" fame. Instead -- and by quite a contrast -- Charles Raymond Offenberg was primarily known for his easy listening and lush adult-oriented remakes of standards from the first half of the 20th century. The ... see all copies from $12.50! new only from $13.08!
20 view cover	America the Beautiful (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles see all copies from $4.46! new only from $4.46!
21 view cover	Georgia on My Mind [Joker] (1988) more music like this by Ray Charles see all copies from $5.39! new only from $13.08!
22	Ray Charles [DVD] (2004) more music like this by Ray Charles see all copies from $1.99! new only from $3.79!
23 view cover	Genius + Soul = Jazz/My Kind of Jazz (1997) more music like this by Ray Charles Single-disc CD reissue combines two of Charles' more jazz-oriented outings, though Genius + Soul (from 1961) enjoys a much more sterling reputation than the comparatively obscure My Kind of Jazz (1970). Question: if genius plus soul equals jazz, does that mean genius minus soul equals fusion? Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
24 view cover	The Genius Hits the Road (1960) more music like this by Ray Charles In keeping with his jazz/pop crossover ambitions, Ray Charles decided to record a concept album of sorts with a dozen songs devoted to various parts of the U.S. -- "Alabamy Bound," "Georgia on My Mind," "Moonlight in Vermont," "California, Here I Come," "Blue Hawaii," and more. The crossover vibe is further heightened by the brassy big-band ... see all copies from $4.99! new only from $11.64!
25 view cover	Here We Go Again [Australia CD] (2005) more music like this by Ray Charles/Norah Jones see all copies from $3.07!
