Analogue Productions (Atlantic Series) Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of Atlantic Records! Iconic musician and singer Ray Charles' classic 1957 album!

Includes the hits 'Hallelujah I Love Her So,' 'Ain't That Love' and 'I Got a Woman' 180-gram 45 RPM double LP Mastered directly from the original master tape by Bernie Grundman Pressed at Quality Record Pressings and RTI Tip-on old style gatefold double pocket jackets with film lamination by Stoughton Printing Ray Charles' self-titled 1957 album was one of the first handful of LPs issued by Atlantic (and was later retitled Hallelujah I Love Her So).

As AllMusic reviewer Bruce Elder notes, the album is weighted about three to one in favor of Charles' own compositions, with the hits 'Hallelujah I Love Her So' and the pounding, soaring 'Ain't That Love,' which opens the LP, it's raison d'etre. Charles does just as well with his interpretations of others' work, most notably the ominous, gospel-focused rendition of 'Sinner's Prayer' (which offers a virtuoso piano performance, and comes courtesy of the pen of Charles' former mentor Lowell Fulson) and Henry Glover's wrenching ballad 'Drown in My Own Tears,' which is topped out on each verse by a gorgeous chorus. 'Funny (But I Still Love You)' offers a guitar break played in such an understated fashion that it almost doesn't seem so much a part of R&B as it was usually being offered in 1957 as it does a part of Charles' early career output.

The second side of the LP is even better, opening with the title track, a number that is almost too ubiquitous in it's various cover versions - the original has a mix of urgency and playfulness that's absolutely bracing, and the album carries this mood forward with 'Mess Around,' an Ahmet Ertegun-authored piano- and sax-driven romp with Charles at his most ebullient as a singer.

'This Little Girl of Mine' offers him in a surprisingly light, almost acrobatic vocal mode, while 'Greenbacks' is a knowing, clever cautionary narrative that is almost a throwback to 1940s-style R&B. 'Don't You Know' is as salacious a piece of R&B as one was likely to hear in 1957, and 'I Got a Woman' closes the record out on a pounding, driving note.

All the hallmarks of a top-notch Analogue Productions reissue are here for you to savor: Mastered directly from the original master tape by Bernie Grundman and cut at 45 RPM. 

Pressed at Quality Record Pressings and RTI, and housed in tip-on old style gatefold double pocket jackets with film lamination by Stoughton Printing.

Fantastic performance with respect to privacy and room temperature.
Color: Frost
While this standing room divider is tall and wide enough to provide a nice privacy barrier, it also allows light to filter through while maintaining that privacy. Assembly was easy with simple to follow directions and the only place I struggled was in pulling the fabric down to connect it. Similar to putting on a compression sock- it takes time and stretching/pulling. I don't think I ever got it to line up completely at the bottom and velcro together like it should, but it is a fantastic benefit. I have a home office on the ground floor, so when the curtains are open, it's not entirely unexpected to have a passerby look in as they go past. This provides basically a wall for them to look at. And I love it. Aside from the privacy, an unexpected benefit is wind control. On hotter days, my dog likes the window open, but hot to him may be cold to me, so I open it for him and allow this instant wall to shelter me. It is surprisingly effective at keeping the cold breeze from reaching me. I could not be more impressed with this divider. It stands on its own and provides privacy and temperature regulation through it's sturdy frame and thick (light-friendly) fabric.

Hiding from Coworkers Has Never Looked So Classy
Color: Frost
Let me tell you something: this divider isn’t just a piece of furniture...it’s a sanctuary, a confessional booth for the emotionally exhausted, and a glorious wall between me and other people’s nonsense. I slid behind this beauty like a barfly dodging an ex, and baby, I felt safe. It's lightweight, but sturdy enough to block out both sunlight and bad vibes. The fabric’s got a fancy little texture, which is great if you're hiding and still wanna feel aesthetic. It moves easy, it stands tall, and it gives me just enough space to eat my sad desk lunch in peace while pretending I’m in a better timeline. Final Word: Perfect for offices, bedrooms, dressing rooms, or wherever you need to spiritually disassociate. Whether you’re blocking out sunlight or Barbara’s unsolicited MLM pitch, this thing’s got your back. Literally. Five stars. Would (and likely will) emotionally withdraw again.

Great quality, perfect height to block the sun from the skylights.
Color: Frost, Color: Frost
We have skylights in our home that don't have shades yet so when we are in our loft, the sun will either blind us or make it unable to see our monitors clearly. So while we're waiting on installing shades, we thought to get a cover to block out the sun and this is perfect! It's tall enough to block out the sun and easy enough to move around as the sun moves. I don't love the way the cover looks, but it seems like it might be changeable. I think for privacy when we have guests in the loft, we would need a few more of these. The base is very sturdy and the quality overall is perfect. It is pricey, but most of these panels are. So really happy with this divider!

Works great but lacking value
Color: Nocturne
It's a well packaged item including a simple tool set and a clear instruction. No smell. I put it together just by myself in about 15-20 minutes without any problems. The base is solid pieces of metal, and it stands very sturdy. It's also light enough for me to move it around in my office to serve different purposes. I like the color and the quality of the fabric. It blends in with my office space perfectly. I needed it as a partition between my desk and the door, and the background for my video conference call. Surprisingly, it can also deflect the air coming down from the AC vent behind my desk. I didn't expect it to 100% soundproofing (not its purpose), but I feel it did absorb some humming sound from my mini fridge behind my desk. Sturdy metal for free-standing, yet pretty light weight for easy assemble and to move around. Keeping it beside my desk to separate lounging and work area, and I could move it easily if I want a conference-call backdrop. I can tell some difference in the sound absorption, as my all-in-one space (kitchen, dining, work, living) area can sound loud at times, it does provide some damping effect. But I must say for the price I was expecting more. More solidity and weight. More privacy. It's just not very big for the price paid. A good price for two panels but this was just a single.

High quality divider, but at a high cost
Color: Nocturne
So if you've ever been into an office setting you've likely encountered some variety of this divider. There's a bunch of good things about this product. -It's a nice size -There are great color options, went with Nocturne and no regrets with that -It's sturdy with a good base -Offers a bit of sound deadening The biggest drawback of this product is the cost. It's pricey for ONE divider. I'm sure it would make a great set, although for me it would fiscally irresponsible.
