He recorded a number of funky tracks, full of soul and gospel feeling, that crossed over into the R&B charts and made him popular in that crowd. His rearrangement and recording of Ray Charles I Got A Woman (Part 1) gave him a top 5 R&B chart position in 1962 - the track had been Charles first R&B number one in 1955. This track would feature on McGriff's first album, I've Got A Woman, and was one of three singles released from it. The others are All About My Girl which reached 12 in the R&B chart and MG Blues. I've Got A Woman reached number 22 on the Billboard album chart and was Sue Records biggest seller. The Best Of The Sue Years 1962-1965 includes all McGriffs singles from this period and more, demonstrating his mastery of the Hammond B-3 organ. Stateside. 2006.
