    Which Ray Charles album should I download at iTunes?
     
  2. He delved successfully into so many genres. So it's really hard to answer your question without knowing what kind of music you like.

    I like it all except hard/gangsta rap and really heavy metal. Especially blues.

    What Ellis said.

    If you like country, he did a duet album several years ago and it includes one of my favorite songs, "Seven Spanish Angels," a duet with Willie Nelson. I think the album is called "Friends" or "Friendship," I can't remember for certain. I think there's a duet with George Jones on there as well.

    It's a good album.

    Don't know if it's on iTunes, but the Birth Of Soul three-disc set is essential.

    I think he's dead, Jim.

    Make sure you get the song from Blues Brothers. Never fails to put a smile on my face.
     
  11. Download as mich the early r&B stuff as you can and then all of Modern Sounds.
    Be amazed at what the man could do.
