Ray Charles “Love Country Style” ABC/Tangerine Records (1970) I heard someone say that they fall in love at least once a day. I do too. Today this song says it all to the one I love. Isaac Hayes does it his way on the “Black Moses” LP, but this one from Ray’s country and western catalog, (which he returned to throughout his long career), is today’s source of sweet inspiration.

A hard and heavy groove from the very first note with killer remakes of “It’s Your Thing” and “Who’s Making Love” – plus Donaldson originals “Hot Dog” and “Turtle Walk”.”
