Ray Charles et les Raylettes. Ray left Ahmet Ertegun’s R&B label in 1959 to join ABC-Paramount. Some feel his work was never as raw and rockin’ again. This nice French picture sleeve was contributed by Fred Siebert who, like Ahmet, has discriminating taste and continues to discover and promote new artists (now through sites such as Channel Frederator.com)

John Hammond produced this first lp by Aretha Franklin in 1961. Five years prior to her first landmark soul recordings for Atlantic, this first effort is jazz and pop standards, show tunes and blues. Reportedly, Aretha met Ray Bryant when John Hammond threw a party at the Village Vanguard in 1960 to introduce his newest find, a young singer from Detroit. The party went to the wee hours of the morning with Aretha and Ray performing together for the first time.
