Go on wit it – Donnie Ray

What else can you say about the incomparable Donnie Ray? He is a bonafide star in multiple markets and genres. Donnie’s latest, I’m Goin’ Back, his 8th album release on the Ecko Records label, is full of outstanding tunes. High energy Donnie bursts forth from the title track as well as I’m Looking For A Woman, Let’s Swing Out, If We Can’t Get It Right, She Was At The Hideaway and Southern Soul Blues Slide. Mid-tempo shuffles Bring Back My Blues, Are You Ready For Me and She’s A Real Hot Lady are of equal vocal quality. One of the top tracks on the album has to be the nostalgic I Remember Those Good Old Days. Donnie’s smooth delivery is easily recognizable as he sings every tune with a passion that is convincing to the listener. This album may be the best effort to date for the Texarkana, Texas native who has certainly had some strong releases over the last several years. Although only out less than a month, it has already jumped to Blues Critic’s #1 spot on their Top 40 Soul Blues albums chart! Go on wit’ it, Donnie Ray!
