Music 'til Midnight - the best in easy listening sounds and timeless standards performed by the greatest artists from the past 60 years - including singers Tony Bennett, Brian Setzer and Ernie Andrews, plus the sounds of two legendary saxophonists, Charlie Parker and Stan Getz. This week's featured album is The Genius Of Ray Charles. Released in 1959 after a decade learning his craft on the road this album fulfilled Ray's great ambition of reaching a mainstream audience. Backed by big band and orchestra he moved beyond his R&B roots with a fresh look at standards including Don't Let The Sun Catch You Crying, Come Rain Or Come Shine and Let The Good Times Roll.
