Luckily I have all 4 of their seasons albums. And they are in very good if not mint condition. I play them when each season comes along. Pure Americana. From the fifties. I sure miss that decade when I was a kid.
One of my mother's dates thought he was taking her to see the Ray Charles singers - instead they were actually at a Ray Charles concert. They stayed, but he was not what they were expecting! Hope they were pleasantly surprised to discover another style of music.
Me too I grew up listening to this group, I was always exited to listen to The Ray Charles Singers and this was in Veracruz, Mexico, when they used to play good music in the radio stations, I think now they lost the taste for good music, because I visited Veracruz, 4 years ago and now I heard only garbage in the radio stations except in exclusive places like hotels and such.
Total class, the likes of which---------we'll never see or hear, again. -------I so remember seeing this .--------------------------MJL, 74 y/o

That's awesome. I grew up listening to this group.
This is the FIRST TIME I've actually seen the Ray Charles Singers and Ray Charles.
The Ray Charles Singers were THE very best of the many choral groups of the 50's & 60's. -----------By far. ------------------MJL, 76 y/o

Wonderful
First song: Count Basie's "Jumpin' at the Woodside". So we have some jazz here!
The best Autumn album ever is by the Ray Charles Singers and is entitled “ Autumn Nocturne.” A bit scratchy but wonderful.
I see Louis Langille from Chicago in the group!!!!
I swear the first song they did was the tune used by the Gong Show to introduce Gene, Gene the Dancing Machine.
It's great to watch them perform. What show is this from?
This man must have made an enormous amount of money in order to pay 20 singers!
wheres the rainy night in georgia song?
This is Ray Charles?
There are 2 Ray Charles - the black soulful Ray Charles, and the white Ray Charles of The Ray Charles Singers.
