In just about every Hall of Fame that has anything to do with music, be it Rhythm & Blues, Jazz, Rock & Roll, Gospel or Country & Western, Ray Charles' name is very prominently displayed. The most concentrated driving force in Ray's life was music and it's hard to argue with his claim, “I was born with music inside me. That’s the only explanation I know.” Rolling Stone has ranked him #10 on their list of the '100 Greatest Artists of All Time' and #2 on their list of the '100 Greatest Singers of All Time.'

This 2LP-set from Vinyl Passion brings together 24 of the groundbreaking and influential music icon's top tracks which bridge a multitude of genres including the #1 hits "Georgia On My Mind," "Hit the Road Jack," "Unchain My Heart" and "You Are My Sunshine" to go along with timeless cuts like "I Got A Woman," "What'd I Say" and "I Can't Stop Loving You" among many more! 

"Ray Charles is proof that the best music crosses all boundaries, reaches all denominations. He could do any type of music, and he always stayed true to himself. It's all about his soul...There's a reason they called Ray Charles "the Genius"...He showed there are no limitations, not for someone as good as he is. Whatever Ray Charles did, whatever he touched, he made it his own. He's his own genre. It's all Ray Charles music now." - Van Morrison, Rolling Stone
