Music of Ray Charles

This DVD is published in the US on 20th October - the following suggest this might be quite an event.

Recorded Live at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall on February 10, 2009, the DVD features Willie Nelson, Wynton Marsalis, and the stunning songstress Norah Jones. The artists collectively bring their unique musical perspective to the legendary Ray Charles' hits such as “Hallelujah I Love Her So,” “Hit the Road Jack,” and “Unchain My Heart.” The evening’s musicians are supported by insightful and vibrant performances from saxaphonist Walter Blanding, pianist Dan Nimmer, bassist Carlos Henriquez, drummer Ali Jackson, and harmonica great Mickey Raphael.

The DVD gives music lovers a front-row seat to the sold-out concert in New York City at Rose Theater, and includes rehearsal footage, exclusive interviews and photos.
