About this album
Friendship finds Ray Charles bringing his inimitable voice to country material with relaxed authority and sharp crossover appeal. Released in 1984, the album blends honky-tonk, country-pop and soul touches, showing how naturally Charles could move between genres without losing his identity. The title duet with Anita Pointer and the long-standing favourite Seven Spanish Angels both helped make the record stand out, while the album as a whole reflects Charles’s late-period strength as a interpretive singer. It sits comfortably within the country side of his catalogue, where gospel inflection, rhythmic phrasing and emotional directness give familiar songs extra depth.
