2017-10-21 (Night Time is the Right Time - Ray Charles)



This sound was coming from black artists, for black audiences, throughout the 50's, on the chitlin circuit and in big city theaters. When Jerry Lee Lewis and other white musicians caught on and brought it to the masses, they called it rock'n'roll. The thing that takes this track to the next level is the vocal performance from Margie Hendricks. 
In a recording session, Ray huddles with Margie Hendricks as he helps her work out a lyric idea.
