2005 UK compilation on Metro Records drawing from Ray Charles's earliest recordings, largely predating his Atlantic breakthrough -- covering his late 1940s and early 1950s work for Swingtime and other small labels. Tracks like "Baby, Let Me Hold Your Hand" and "C.C. Rider" show Charles developing his blues and soul piano style before mainstream recognition. 24 tracks across one disc.
