Written by James Dexter Weatherly, a 1974 release on Sony. Ray Price recorded a whopping 38 of Weatherly's songs! Weatherly was born in Pontotoc, Mississippi in 1943 and died of natural causes in 2021 at age 77, my current age, in Brentwood, Tennessee, the city the nearest to the site where Jim Reeves died when his private airplane crashed during a thunderstorm.😢 His biggest hit was a #1 charter titled MIDNIGHT TRAIN TO GEORGIA, recorded by Gladys Knight and the Pips. RIAA listed it at #29 its list of the top 365 songs in the history of recording in the USA! I listened to it.😵💫🙉 Brother, is the RIAA's taste in music different than mine!😟🙄😬😫 I enjoyed this song. I must investigate the other 37 Weatherly songs that Ray Price recorded.
Great song; I’ve heard it before, always happy to listen again. Thank you Jackie.
I’m tempted to say I prefer his soaring tenor of the sixties,but this is faultless!👍
I prefer his mid 50s up til the mid 60s , he was versatile, wonderful vocalist
this song went to #15 on the country charts in 1974!!!
❤❤❤
