Growing up in the northwest, Robert Cray listened to the gospel of the five blind boys of Mississippi, Bobby Bland's soul, Jimi Hendrix's rock guitar and the Beatles pop sounds. He would bring all of the influences into play throughout his career, but his teenage band was captivated by southern soul and the blues. The glow of a career in music began when Cray was a teen, and in 1974 it burst into flames as the Robert Cray band came together in Eugene, Oregon. In the mid-80s he was building on a reputation as a live artist, followed by the release of his fourth album, Strong Persuader. The album received a Grammy Award and the first single "Strong Persuader" became his most successful hit. During the years he worked together with some of music's greatest, like Chuck Berry, Tina Turner, BB King and Eric Clapton. All these collaborations are included on the second LP.
Robert Cray Collected is available as a limited first pressing of 2000 individually numbered copies on red vinyl.
