Ray Charles Sing With The Newest Basie Band!

That's right!

Mike Williams sent me this. The CD will be released next month, I have heard it and it is GREAT!

They took an old Ray Charles concert where the Basie Band was playing and re-did it all. A lousy recording not released, and had the newest Basie band go in the studio and cover it PERFECTLY!

Mike Williams-lead trumpet
Scotty Barnhardt
Sean Edmonds
Endre Rice
Butch Miles on drums
Joey Defransisco on organ

I you love Ray, and love Basie, this will be a MUST HAVE.

Patti Austin put together a group of "Raylettes" that COOKS!

Check out the video behind the scenes.
