Ray Charles- The Fabulous Ray Charles-LP

Ray Charles – The Fabulous Ray Charles

The Fabulous Ray Charles gathers earlier Ray Charles hits into a 1962 compilation, making it a handy vintage snapshot of his broad reach across jazz, blues, soul, and pop audiences. It was issued by Celebrity Records, a label active in distributing Charles material during the early ’60s, so the appeal here is partly musical and partly period charm. For someone who wants Ray Charles on vintage vinyl without getting into pricier copies, this one keeps the focus on recognizable material from a major American vocalist and pianist. This is a 1962 vinyl pressing priced at $12.00, so it qualifies as an affordable copy with real shelf appeal. The record is graded VG+, a solid everyday listening grade where a few light lines, sleeve marks, or small scuffs may be present, but not wear that should dominate the music. At under $15, it’s an approachable way to bring home a vintage Ray Charles compilation.

Sound samples are included to help you get a feel for the music, but they may not always match the exact pressing or track version of the record listed. When in doubt, trust the photos and pressing information - that's the actual record you're buying.
