Post your favorite (or top three if you prefer that) Ray Charles song!
Mine's But On The Other Hand Baby, no contest.

But On The Other Hand Baby

He injects so much soul into that song without overdoing it. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Southwestern NY | | | I guess I was really impressed by the first song I ever heard of his - "Ruby". I must have been about 8 or 9. I remember I asked my folks to buy the 45 rpm record which, on the flipside, had "Georgia" if I recall correctly. Of course, he was a great musician/performer and did some great songs, but that one is foremost in my recollection of him.

Also, the album "Ray Charles and Betty Carter" has some killing cuts on it as well...I think that's my favorite album.
