May 18, 2011They have done Ray Charles proud.
-
Apr 15, 2011Ray Charles surely would have admired the inventive and lively jazz-drenched arrangements accompanying many of his standards.
-
Apr 15, 2011In American art, a good time is often the most profound thing there is. Here We Go Again hints at this possibility, but pulls up just a little short.
-
Apr 15, 2011Thanks largely to the instrumental work, there's a satisfying amount of entertainment value on this release--even if major revelations are not forthcoming.

Apr 29, 2011Despite boasting favorites from Charles repertoire including "Cryin' Time," "Busted," and "Hit the Road Jack," this summit never clicks, perhaps a result of the one-off nature of the project making it hard for the musical personalities to fully gel.
