Ray Charles, live in Austin Texas, on October 23rd, 1979. Backed by his Orchestra and, of course the Raelettes, Ray Charles made a historic appearance on the long-running PBS TV series, Austin Limits, becoming not only the first black artist to play on it, but also the first major pop artist. He performed several of his best-loved standards, before closing with "Deep In The Heart Of Texas", an affectionate nod to the state in which the show was made. The full PBS TV broadcast is presented here. Digitally remastered for enhanced sound quality. Includes background notes and images.
