I'd pay $30 for What'd I say wouldn't you........2006-05-21

Glide your mouse to the add to shopping cart icon asap! This cd is worth it just for the live version of What'd I say! It starts out with Ray fumbling around on the keyboard as if he is making mistakes when in reality we all know he never made a mistake because he is the high priest of soul and a musical genius. Whoops, I got carried away! After his entertaining run up to the song he flows into the begining of What'd I say and the crowd goes nuts. It gives me goosebumps everytime I here it. It is amazing to hear the 70 year old Charles belt out this song with so much energy. The reason I give the album 4 stars is because he skips alot of the lyrics while singing the songs. I don't know if its due to his age or just because he felt like doin it that way. Buy the album its Ray Charles for cryin out loud, besides what else is out there nowadays except a bunch of crap music!

Ages Just Like Wine.......2006-04-18

This live album is from the year 2000 and that's the reason I bought it...I didn't want a live Ray Charles album from the 50's or 60's...but sometime in his older and maturer days. And that's what you get here.

The best part about this cd is it's simplicity and straightforwardness. It's Ray Charles and vocals and piano, a drummer, bass player and guitar player. They are the Ray Charles Trio. What you get is a complete, smooth, fresh and wonderfully drippingly jazzified 70 minutes of music.

Charles' voice is beautifully rough and older which adds a new dimension to the songs and his keyboard work is amazing...wonderful solos that wail through your speakers.

My only complaint was that the concert was longer...and had more hits like "Night Time Is the Right Time" and "Hit The Road Jack" (i don't know if he played that song as frequent in his older days). Still, this CD is beautiful. I didn't pay $30 but paid $12 through a private seller here on Amazon. I dunno if I'd pay $30 for it...but it's a great cd.

If you love jazz and blues---LIVE...then get this cd!
