No One Does It Like... Ray Charles! collects his long-lost early 1960s singles into one seamless, newly restored album that finally completes his classic era.
At the height of his early 1960s creative explosion, Ray Charles was moving faster than the industry could keep up. His groundbreaking albums were redefining popular music, while several hit singles never found a home on LP. Now, for the first time, those non-album gems are finally brought together on No One Does It Like... Ray Charles!, a newly curated Tangerine Masters release that captures the genius in his prime.
The album gathers a string of R&B hits, including “No One,” “Hide Nor Hair,” “At the Club,” “Don’t Set Me Free,” and “My Heart Cries for You,” restored and remastered with care by multi-Grammy winner Michael Graves. Pressed on tangerine vinyl and mastered by Jeff Powell, it feels both archival and immediate, a missing chapter made whole.
Featuring a period-perfect cover illustration by renowned artist Paul Mann, the collection has been curated, designed, and presented as the Ray Charles album that might have been released alongside his greats of the era. Thanks to The Ray Charles Foundation and the Tangerine Masters series, No One Does It Like... Ray Charles! does not just fill in a gap in his discography, it restores a crucial part of his creative story.
