Thursday's lunch record is "The Ray Charles Story Volume One" (1962) r. 1952-1956.  This is a super collection of Ray's hot rockin' Atlantic recordings from the early fifties. R & B was the music that was shaking the world apart and these tracks made it on to the air and into juke boxes, many refered it to rock & roll. Nine of the 15 tracks were Ray's songs, "I've Got A Woman". "Halleujah I Love Her so", "This Little Girl Of Mine", "Don't You Know" along with the others. The famous "Mess Around"was a huge hit is included on this album. The YouTube sample song is "Mary Ann" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93fwxtgCBjA . . . . bucko
