At a concert held at Herndon Stadium in Atlanta on May 28, 1959, Ray Charles turns in a blistering version of &What'd I Say& and takes on the big band era with versions of Tommy Dorsey's &Yes Indeed!& and Artie Shaw's &Frenesi,& not to mention performances of &The Right Time& and &Tell the Truth.& This album is a reissue of What'd I Say; it was reissued in 1973 as part of a two-record set, packaged with Ray Charles at Newport under the title Ray Charles Live (Atlantic 503).
