Limited Edition Deluxe 6CD Box Set with 44-Page Book
Tangerine Records issued this limited six-CD box on September 10, 2021, catalog number TRC-2107, to mark what would have been Ray Charles's 90th birthday. Tangerine is the label Charles himself founded in 1962. Inside are 90 newly remastered recordings in chronological order, plus a sixth disc that comes only with the box: a previously unreleased concert recorded in Stockholm in 1972.
John Burk, who produced Charles's final studio album, Genius Loves Company, compiled the set with the Ray Charles Foundation and its president, Valerie Ervin. They found the Stockholm tapes while putting the box together. Every Ray Charles album released after 1960 is represented, along with singles that never appeared on any of his albums, and the recordings run from 1959 to 2004.
The first disc includes "Georgia On My Mind," "Hit The Road Jack" and "I Can't Stop Loving You," all three Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles. "I Can't Stop Loving You" held the top spot for five weeks in 1962. Disc five gathers the later duets: "Seven Spanish Angels" with Willie Nelson, a No. 1 country single in 1985, plus recordings with Billy Joel, Eric Clapton, Norah Jones and Hank Williams Jr. "I'll Be Good To You," with Quincy Jones and Chaka Khan, was his last Hot 100 single, reaching No. 18 in 1990.
The discs come with a coffee-table book of rare and previously unseen photographs. It carries liner notes by Valerie Ervin and music journalist A. Scott Galloway, and a message from Quincy Jones. The Stockholm concert was later issued by itself as Live in Stockholm 1972 in May 2022.
