I truly believe the one of the most overlooked, and brilliant songs of Ray Charles extensive career came early, on his 4th record in the form of the 2nd track, It's Alright. This song has all of the makings for the greatest break-up/kiss off song of the 20th century. While the rest of this collection holds some other strong contenders, like Get on the Right Track Baby, and I Had A Dream, nothing holds like that 2nd track. This is a great collection over all, and I find myself reaching for it a few times a year, for the last 20 years.
