The Best Of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years - потрясающая коллекция хитов одного из величайших исполнителей в истории американской музыки, Рэя Чарльза.
The Best Of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years - сборник из 20 лучших классических песен легендарного великого Рэя Чарльза периода его сотрудничества с Atlantic.
Термин «легенда» используется слишком свободно в наши дни, а в музыке, возможно, это происходит чаще всего. Но в лице Рэя Чарльза у современной музыки есть кто-то, кого она может гордо назвать одним из истинных гениев культуры. Чарльз проложил свой собственный путь через карьеру, охватывающую почти шесть десятилетий, объединяя госпел и R&B для создания соул-музыки. Позже он добился успеха в кантри и рок-н-ролльной сфере, продемонстрировав свое разнообразие и талант. Помимо музыкальных барьеров, Чарльз помог разрушить расовые, живя и выступая в преображающее и трудное время для чернокожих мужчин и женщин в Америке. Эта коллекция на двух LP включает в себя некоторые из самых популярных, влиятельных и оригинальных записей Рэя Чарльза. Послушайте эти записи одного из поистине великих музыкантов, с момента его формирования как артиста, до его более поздних жанровых работ, и узнайте, почему он был известен просто как «Гений».
Взять одну из самых интересных работ в истории американской музыки и попытаться сузить ее до одного компакт-диска ( или двух виниловых пластинок) с 20 песнями, казалось бы, обреченный на провал проект, и мало кто спорит, что этот сборник Рэя Чарльза лишь поверхностно отражает самую революционную музыку в истории ритм-энд-блюза. Но это не значит, что данная компиляция не совсем удовлетворительна, и в качестве введения в наиболее важный период творческого роста Чарльза The Best of Ray Charles: The Atlantic Years предлагает почти все хиты и превосходно точное представление его творческой эволюции того периода, начиная с грубого блюза, такого как "It Should've Been Me" и "Greenback", и заканчивая проникновенными, но сложными шедеврами прото-соула, такими как "What'd I Say» и «Drown In My Own Tears». Одного диска (или двух пластинок) просто недостаточно, чтобы рассказать полную музыкальную историю Рэя Чарльза того периода, но здесь собраны все первоклассные вещи, а выбор и последовательность этого сборника должны понравиться как давним фанатам, ищущим портативный сборник, так и новичкам. Мастеринг и упаковка выполнены с типичной для Rhino степенью осторожности, и, кроме того, кому не понравится диск с «I Got a Woman», «Hallelujah, "I Love Her So», «Lonely Avenue» и другими шедеврами?
Лимитированное подарочное коллекционное издание сборника на двойном виниле белого цвета.
*****
Ray Charles родился в 1930 и умер в 2010 году. Этот слепой музыкант считается одной из самых влиятельных фигур джаза и блюза. В его активе более 70 студийных пластинок.
