AMG Review of Ray Charles in Person
William Ruhlmann
All Music GuideAt a concert held at Herndon Stadium in Atlanta on May 28, 1959, Ray Charles turns in a blistering version of "What'd I Say" and takes on the big band era with versions of Tommy Dorsey's "Yes Indeed!" and Artie Shaw's "Frenesi," not to mention performances of "The Right Time" and "Tell the Truth." This album is a reissue of What'd I Say; it was reissued in 1973 as part of a two-record set, packaged with Ray Charles at Newport under the title Ray Charles Live (Atlantic 503).
