I enjoy listening to Ray Stevens. He's hilarious and his songs are catchy. You can hear a few notes and you know the song. Everything is beautiful was first song of his I heard. He's got a great voice.

Wonderful interview/news coverage of your 2005 return to Branson. I hadn't seen this interview until today. Love the dark shirt!

Who knows what the rest of the year will bring...the video makes one wish everything was back to normal and there were concerts taking place. Ray returned one last time to Branson for a series of concerts at The Welk Theater in 2010. He opened up the CabaRay venue in 2018...but COVID-19 closed down live concerts in the spring of 2020. I think there were one or two concerts held early this year at the CabaRay and then Tennessee shut things down.

I'm always late to the party

Unfortunately, Branson is a hollow shell of its former self. Most of the big acts have left, including Ray Stevens, who now has a place in Nashville again.

Yeah I miss the Lawrence Welk shows there.
