Ray Charles - Ingredients In A Recipe For Soul

Ingredients In A Recipe For Soul proved that Ray Charles didn't so much ignore genres, but, by the '60s, had become a genre unto himself. An academic might want to separate this stack of songs into neat little buckets-country, jazz, standards, blues, pop-but those are just the ingredients. Ray Charles sings whatever he likes and whatever he sings comes out as a Ray Charles song, with a flavor all it's own. Two hit singles, "Busted" and "That Lucky Old Sun," made Ingredients In A Recipe For Soul an instant Top Ten when it was released in 1963.
