The Deluxe Edition - copies numbered 1-500

The 500 Deluxe copies come with your choice of signatory, either Bill Wyman, who has long-since shared an interest in both photography and the music of Ray Charles and written the book's forward; or, the photographer himself, Joe Adams. Just let us know your preference.

Complete with a DVD, every Deluxe book is bound entirely in fine goatskin leather, with hand-tooling and silver page-edging, and housed within its own handcrafted box. The Deluxe edition of YES INDEED! is a Genesis book of the highest calibre, as is only befitting of Ray Charles' musical legacy.

The Vintage Business Card & The Prints

Each Deluxe set includes a special historical artifact - a vintage business card from Ray Charles' office desk at RPM Studios. The business card, originally owned by Ray, ensures a place in music history for every Deluxe boxed set. An accompanying letter explains the provenance of the card, suitable for matting and framing.

Furthermore, three unique portraits of Ray Charles strictly limited to these 500 copies, and not reproduced anywhere else in the book, are presented as numbered and stamped 8"x10" Lambda prints. These three fine art prints are:

1. Taping a Coca-Cola radio commercial.
2. Recording at RPM International Studios.
3. Filming for NBC television.
