Bassics (The Best Of The Ray Brown Trio '77-'00) - Ray Brown Trio (The)

Advantages: Ray Charles Greatest Hits !
Disadvantages: ?

...moaning rather than singing it, but as he knows how to do it, gets out a beautiful blues which makes your soul dance. Even though lets you a bitter-sweet taste, it is a pleasure to hear it over and over again. Drown in my own tears, was not written by Ray, Henry Glover is to blame for this smashing hit which was released in 1952 first time. But in 1956 Ray broke all the myths and brought out the very best of this song in his original way, and once again he had another No. 1! 10/10 (3:20) 9) "(Night time is) The right Time" - again another song that was not written by Ray. The song was originally done Nappy Brown in 1954 and was revised by Charles, who is helped in the song by lead Raelette Margie Hendricks.

Advantages: Fast paced, lyrics with meaning, classic trio!
Disadvantages: none existant

Advantages: great guitarist and excellent lyrics
Disadvantages: too much like a jamming session?

Grand National sounds a bit like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, very full of energy.... Read review
