		Genius Loves Company is the last studio album Ray Charles completed before his death in June 2004.
		Prior to this, the last studio album he released was Strong Love Affair in 1996, which was a stab at modern pop, filled with new songs and given an adult contemporary sheen.
		As the title acknowledges with a wink, this is a duets album, which may be a little commonplace as far as latter-day superstar albums go but is still a step up from his previous studio album since it puts Ray Charles in a comfortable, relaxed situation that plays to his strengths.

		Though Ray Charles, one of the greatest singers of the 20th century, was never in need of vocal assistance, he was no stranger to duets either (one of his finest records is a duet album with Betty Carter).
		Of course, it's not all bittersweet melancholy; Charles teams with Van Morrison for a jubilant soul/gospel reading of Van's MOONDANCE tune "Crazy Love," and the duet with James Taylor on the upbeat "Sweet Potato Pie" is probably the sassiest, perkiest thing in which Taylor's ever been involved.
		GENIUS LOVES COMPANY is a swan song that fittingly finds the titular genius surrounded by friends from varied musical worlds, all of whom he's touched with his rare gift.

		While the star-studded guest appearances (which vary from Willie Nelson to B.B. King to Van Morrison) is definitely one reason to purchase the record, the best reason is simply to hear Charles himself enjoying the passion he feels for music even after all the years he has been in the business.
		Charles and company evoke emotion after emotion, tugging on one heartstring at a time throughout the album.
		It is true that genius loves company, which may explain why the album will constantly fail to leave the cd player listen after listen.

		The fact that Genius Loves Company will be Ray Charles's final new album inspires an unavoidable blue feeling.
		Fine moments abound--you can hear his delight even in the rather stiff company of Diana Krall and Natalie Cole.

		In his last album, a series of duets, aptly titled "Genius Loves Company", Charles and his collaborators give us that eclectic mix of styles he was known for.
		It is the only live performance on the CD, and it amazes in that Morrison completely changes his approach to the song given the way that Ray begins it.
		Genius Loves Company is evidence that Ray Charles did just that.

	3BlackChicks Review™... Genius Loves Company ... - music (Cass)
		I'm not sure if I fell in love with Ray Charles because he resembled my beloved grandfather, Curley, or because I was raised listening to his music during the five decades when Ray's illustrious career was at its peek.
		Since its posthumous release on August 31, 2004, Genius Loves Company debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 chart and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
		You know how you can't erase the last message a loved one left on your voice mail or answering machine because deleting the sound of their voice signifies that they've actually crossed over the rainbow.

		Ook dit is weer zo’n plaat die aan de man wordt gebracht als een project van vrienden, maar die hoogstwaarschijnlijk is bedacht tijdens een vergadering van platenvolk.

		And I love me some Johnny Mathis, but he and Ray doing "Over the Rainbow" is not something I'll ever have need to hear again.
