Ray Charles Live In Concert 2026 Remaster released on 25 September
Published on 09/30/2026 at 09:45 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSRay Charles’ live album Ray Charles Live In Concert (2026 Remaster) was released on 25 September 2026. It brings a complete concert recording from Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium to listeners in a new edition. The 19-song set runs for 1 hour 15 minutes and carries the Tangerine Records credit.
Ray Charles live album restores a full Shrine Auditorium set
The release presents the full performance rather than the shorter programme issued previously. BroadwayWorld’s live album announcement says Tangerine Records has issued the complete 75-minute concert as its first vinyl presentation. The recording therefore documents a concert performance, not a newly recorded session.
The Apple Music listing gives 19 tracks and a total running time of 1 hour 15 minutes. Among the named songs are One Mint Julep, Georgia On My Mind, Hallelujah, I Love Her So and What’d I Say.
Ray Charles’ catalogue joins soul, jazz and country
The official Ray Charles homepage describes him as a pioneer of soul who combined blues, gospel, R&B, rock, country music and jazz. A biographical profile from Florida’s Hall of Fame places his birthplace in Albany, Georgia, and identifies his music as a force in American soul.
That range explains why a concert document can move naturally between rhythm and blues, gospel-rooted material, jazz arrangements and country repertoire. His catalogue also includes Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music, a work recognised for bringing his approach to country songs. The new release places that wide musical vocabulary beside the concentrated sound of a single concert programme.
How the Ray Charles remaster is presented
The album’s presentation keeps the performance at the centre. Apple Music classifies it as R&B/Soul and credits Tangerine Records Inc. under exclusive licence to Exceleration Music, LLC. The listing also identifies an iTunes Store edition alongside the album’s digital presentation.
At 19 songs, the programme runs as one 1 hour 15 minute set, from the opening track to the finale. The sequence includes instrumental numbers, vocal standards and familiar songs without separating the performance into a second volume. That shape keeps the release tied to the concert’s original sequence.
