Description

The success of the 1962 Modern Sounds in Country And Western Music albums paved the way for Charles' creative freedom as an artist. Throughout the rest of his career, he continued to show his deep affinity for country music. 1965's Country and Western Meets Rhythm and Blues (aka Together Again) features Ray's timeless version of the Buck Owens country standard "Together Again." It also holds the distinction of being the first album Charles recorded in his own RPM International recording studio. While on 1996's Crying Time album Ray delivers the definitive version of that Owens song and earned Ray the GRAMMY for Best Rhythm & Blues Solo Vocal Performance Male and recognition as Producer of Best Rhythm & Blues Recording by The National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. As if that weren't enough, the album also boasts Charles #1 Billboard smash "Let's Go Get Stoned."
