Ray Charles - Singular Genius: The Complete ABC Singles (2011)

Ray Charles, sightless and orphaned by age 15, led a life that sounded like a blues song. But the range and scope of his talent could never be contained within one genre, no matter its lasting joys.

Interview: Burt Bacharach (Part 2)

Pulling into Burt Bacharach's driveway a few weeks ago in Los Angeles, I looked in the open garage.
