The Ray Charles Singers Greatest Hits packs 28 carefully selected performances from the group's classic pop choral repertoire onto one disc in spectacular stereo sound. Includes their major hits Love Me With All Your Heart and Al-Di-La. Led by the 'other' Ray Charles, The Ray Charles Singers backed Perry Como for 35 years on radio, record and television, and pioneered a soft choral sound that transformed traditional pop standards and classic love songs into exquisite, harmony-drenched confections for the ear. The group was easy listening before the term 'easy listening' existed, enveloping their listeners with a chorus of 20 vocalists. This collection contains recordings from The Ray Charles Singers' Command Records era, when they created their best and most successful music. Recorded in glorious stereo and audiophile fidelity by Enoch Light, these songs capture the group at their peak.
