“Yes Indeed!” by Ray Charles - album review
| features in: Album Chart of 1958 ● Album Chart of the Decade: 1950s |
Atlantic 8025. Released October, 1958. His 5th album in 2 years. Having said that, it’s another compilation, 14 sides from 1953 to date. Only 1 track repeats from the back-album catalogue – “Talkin’ About You” (Ray Charles At Newport, 1958), although it appears here in its studio version on LP for the first time. The album is notable for vocal backing from The Cookies who would soon become a permanent feature as The Raeletts. He’s at his very best when he fuses the blues with his soulful vocal – traits which are common to all of the best tracks in this set. He can be a real delight…
