Ray Charles recorded these tracks for Swing Time Records prior to his break-out releases on Atlantic Records. While fine outings with good arrangements, they didn't set the charts ablaze and are essential only to Ray Charles completists or lovers of the genre. The 28 tracks on two discs showcase Charles imitating Charles Brown on some cuts and Nat King Cole on others. On a few occasions he even manages to sound like the Ray Charles we all know and love.
