Night Time Is The Right Time

Another solid track from Elvin's latest album, "The Blues Rolls On." Elvin's thoughts on covering Ray Charles:

I went to see Ray Charles at the Big Ten Ballroom in 1958. He had his great band with all the fantastic horn players and the Raelettes and put on a show I'll never forget. I wouldn't have had the nerve to record a Ray Charles song if I hadn't had the help of my two favortie singers in the world - John [Nemeth] is originaly from Boise, Idaho, has three albums out, sings and plays harmonica, everything he does is just right and he tears this song up royally. Angela Strehli from Texas, whose latest album is Blue Highway, is a very nice person and her singing has that soulful ring of truth."
