Editorial Review:
Expanded and remastered reissue of the 1962 classic album and its successful follow-up. Packaged together for the very first time, volume 2 has never-before been available on CD! For Ray Charles, this music represented the culmination of a lifelong love affair he shared for Country & Western music. It vastly expanded his pop demographic and made countless new country converts by giving these 24 songs a soul-steeped urban dimension.
Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, Vol. 1 & 2 Reviews:
One of a kind 
2009-09-19 - He was called "Genius" and this is why. I remember when the records came out (I have/had both) and the controversy. Soon after he was a household name recognised as the groundbreaking Genius he was for the rest of his life. He broke barriers that helped create open music for all of us. I am glad these records are available again.
Another Ray Charles Classic
2009-08-18 - Classic Ray...a short scene in the movie, and a lot of great tunes, many that have been covered so many times you would not see them as "country" today.
Modens sounds in Country and Western Music
2009-08-15 - This album is as good as it gets. I am 68 years old and lift weights 4 hours a week and use this album to keep me in rhythm and keep me uplifted and happy. I absolutely love sit.
Best Ray Charles Album
2009-07-20 - This is the best Ray Charles Album he ever recorded. You will be in tears after hearing it.
Old School Ray Charles 
2009-07-06 - Heard a lot about this classic collection on NPR and its new re-release as a double CD. Being a Ray Charles fan for many years I guess I`m still stuck with Georgia ON MY Mind. I love Country and Western in general but maybe I was expecting too much from this Collection. It was OK, but more of a Cross-Over then real Country for me. I now remember listening to some of these songs years ago on this CD but did`nt connect back then that was Ray, doing Country. I`l listen to it a few more times...maybe it will grow on me.
