John Scofield collaborated on this album shortly after Ray Charles' death as a tribute to the many hits performed by Charles. Scofield had been playing most of these songs since he first started to play the guitar and Charles' music was one of his inspirations: a super soul-music man, but also a jazz musician, too.
