[SACD-R][OF](Jazz, R&B/Soul)Ray Charles And Betty Carter – Ray Charles And Betty Carter - 1961/2012

 

Ray Charles and Betty Carter is a 1961 album by Betty Carter and Ray Charles. The pair’s recording of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” on the album topped the R&B charts. A 1988 CD/LP re-issue included three bonus tracks and the 1998 Rhino Records re-issue combined, on a single CD, the original Ray Charles and Betty Carter with the complete Dedicated to You.

This pairing of two totally idiosyncratic vocalists acquired legendary status over the decades in which it had been out of print. But the proof is in the listening, and frankly it doesn’t represent either artist’s best work. There is certainly a powerful, often sexy rapport between the two — Charles in his sweet balladeering mode, Carter with her uniquely keening, drifting high register — and they definitely create sparks in the justly famous rendition of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.” The main problem is in Marty Paich’s string/choir arrangements, which too often cross over the line into treacle, whereas his charts for big band are far more listenable. Moreover, Charles’ sweetness can get a bit cloying too, although some of the old grit emerges on “Takes Two To Tango.” On the CD reissue — remixed by Charles himself — Dunhill adds the great, rare B-side to the “Unchain My Heart” single, “But On The Other Hand Baby,” and two excellent if unrelated album cuts, “I Never See Maggie Alone” (1964) and “I Like To Hear It Sometime” (1966).
