Ray Charles Remaster Series Continues With Slate Of Vintage Reissues

/by

Ray Charles‘ Tangerine Records is continuing to release Charles’ best-known music alongside classic records long out of print on the Tangerine Master Series, with a new slate of reissues set for the coming months.

Each album has been restored and remastered under the supervision of The Ray Charles Foundation. The Tangerine Master Series continues with the release of Charles’ reissue of 1963’s Ingredients in a Recipe for Soul, available now at all DSPs, on CD, and vinyl for the first time in more than half a century. The project is highlighted by the Grammy-winning, top 5 hit, “Busted,” as well as the top 20 favorite, “That Old Lucky Sun.” Bootlegged across Europe for decades, this is the first and only real reissue of this album on vinyl, as well as its first appearance on CD since the 1990s.

Ingredients in a Recipe for Soul follows the Tangerine Master Series’ recent release of a newly remastered edition of 1974’s Come Live With Me, a blend of pop and gospel-infused soul available now at all DSPs and on vinyl for the first time in over 50 years.

Next up in the Tangerine Master Series is 1970’s Love Country Style, available for the first time since its original release, on Oct. 24. The Tangerine Master Series will also see reissues of such masterpieces as No One Does It Like…Ray Charles! – The Great Ray Charles Album That Should Have Been, a previously uncompiled collection of singles from 1962-1965, released for the first time ever as a cohesive body of work.
