As a general rule, ANYTHING Ray Charles does can fall into this category. I was particularly taken with this performance at the Montreax Jazz Festival 1997. Elegantly staged with intricate yet understated orchestration and a lovely melody, Ray provides subtle keyboard accents throughout the song. The lead singer has both gentle AND intense soulful phrasing. She is the star here.
Not much else to say except enjoy the musical excellence... "In the Shadows of my Mind"
