Friendship (Ray Charles album)

Friendship is a studio album by American singer and pianist Ray Charles.

For Friendship, Charles collaborated with several established country stars in a series of duets.

It reached the number-one position on the Billboard's Top Country Albums and remained on the chart for 70 weeks.

[1] In a retrospective review for AllMusic, Erlewine judged the album's best moments to be "merely pleasant; at its worst, it's simply dull" and "more of a testament to the power of Sherrill's Music City machine than it is to Charles' greatness.

He cited "We Didn't See a Thing" as a highlight of both Charles and George Jones' late-period recordings and also applauded the two bonus songs, despite their deviation from the original album's stylistic concept.
