Ray Charles cast such a long shadow over soul, R&B, and jazz that Blue Note's roster spent decades absorbing his influence without always naming it. This compilation makes that deb t explicit, drawing on vintage sessions from the label's golden era to show how deeply Charles's vocabulary had penetrated organ jazz, soul-blues guitar, and the hard bop tradition. Tracks include "That's Where It's At" by Lou Rawls and Ray Charles, "I Got a Woman" by Jimmy McGriff, "What Would I Do Without You" by Stanley Turrentine, "This Little Girl of mine" by Grant Green, "Ain't That Love" by Bill Henderson and Jimmy smith, and "(Night Time Is) the Right Time" by Freddie Roach.
