The Band

Last updated on November 5, 2012.

Info on line-ups at album sessions is largely based on published liner notes. Most information on personnel at concerts and tv shows (and also of some records) was kindly provided by David Hoffman, Steve Sigmund, Mayo Tiana, and other Ray Charles Orchestra alumni, and by RC connaisseur par excellence Joël Dufour.

(C) = Concert. (R) = Recorded (audio a/o video).
I've left out any specifics on supportive sound makers like strings and choirs (e.g. Jack Halloran Singers).
