Summary
[edit]- 24-sec sample from "What'd I Say" by Ray Charles
- Source: Pure Genius: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1952-1959) (Sample transcoded to Ogg vorbis using Audacity 1.3.7)
- Songwriters: Ray Charles
- Copyright: 1959 by Atlantic Records
Fair use rationale in "What'd I Say"
[edit]- The sample presents the portion of the song where call and response was employed between Ray Charles, his orchestra, and his backup singers that was significantly influenced by black gospel music, but used to portray a raw sexuality. The sounds presented in the clip were at the time of release in 1959, inflammatory, and not only caused the song to be banned on radio stations, but represented disparate views about black sexuality, marketing black gospel to white audiences, and the marriage of gospel and R&B that was the spark that began soul music. "What'd I Say" is held as the song that ushered in a new genre of music where call and response was later presented by artists such as Aretha Franklin and James Brown, who got their inspiration, according to music historians, from "What'd I Say". (These issues are cited from multiple sources in the article about the song.) As it is such an influential aspect of the song, words are inadequate in relaying the composition and performance. It illustrates an educational article specifically about the song from which this sample was taken.
- It is a sample of no more than 24 seconds from a 6:30 recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
