Ray Price - In The Garden

Noble Ray Price (January 12, 1926 – December 16, 2013)[1] was an American country music singer, songwriter, and guitarist. His wide ranging baritone has often been praised as among the best male voices of country music. Some of his well-known recordings include "Release Me", "Crazy Arms", "Heartaches by the Number", "For the Good Times", "Night Life", and "You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me". He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1996. Price continued to record and tour well into his mid-eighties. He died December 16, 2013 at the age of 87.

I was with Ray Price and Ernest Tubb on the golf course. Ray had just finish doing a album in the studio ready for release to the public. E.T. told him that he should put "City Lights" on the album written by Bill Anderson. He went back into the studio and did "City Lights" and it became a huge hit. At that time Bill Anderson was working as a D.J. for a radio station and that song brought him to Nashville - Rev. Rocky Thomas
