They use that "junk" now so they can hear. Stage volume is much higher now. It doesnt take anything away from modern performers. Style of music and taste, now that's a different story.
I start everyday off with some strong coffee and some Ray Price. If he's not the best country singer of all time, he's easily top five. So many big hits and great songs, from honky-tonk to Nashville crooner, Ray was the best.
I think Ray Price had the best Versatel voice . He could change his style of singing at any time and had a beautiful voice and if possible improved with age. We rarely hear his style with this new country today. It's just not the same.i appreciate having the choice of listening to good country music from all these videos so thank you again , Singing Cowboy for sharing along with the others that share their great videos of real country music..
@@cornbobrimlove7892 , Thanks for the recommendation to listen to Rodney Crisp. I did and he really does sing true country. Definitely will be listening to him. Ms Lou
Ray was always a great person any time you saw him around Mt Pleasant or Pittsburg..Used to stop by Brookshire's and Eckerd's Drug store on his way to a show ..so glad to be able to still hear him via recordings ..thanks For The Good Times
These are the country stars they I got to see when stationed at FT Campbell in the early 1950s and spent many Saturday night at the Ryman. After the main show that was on the radio from 8 to 9, they let us military peoples in free and any time in Nashville it was a treat at least for me I loved country music.
As a radio listener, just a high school kid, I never heard much of Ray Price. If he was popular around Nashville I had no way of knowing because he got no play on Los Angeles country stations. Then Crazy Arms hit and Ray Price became king of the mountain in country music. The rest is history. Now that these old performances are available on You Tube I've been pigging out on Ray Price. And one of the things I see for the first time is how he dressed. It adds an element of excitement that's been lost or maybe thrown away since then. I wonder what happened to the country music I learned to love. It's almost as if it became ashamed of what it was. I only wish the sound quality of some of these old videos was up to snuff.
Pat Coleman , according to my late wife’s notes, you are very correct. She goes on to say Gordon Terry was an electric lead guitar player as good as there was. He played bass, lead, fiddle, just about wherever they needed him. He went on to tour with Merle Haggard later.
'll tell you ONE thing!........... this is absolutely amazing and historically over the top!!!!!.......Pete Charles ....he signed a T-shirt for me in Reno....went to see him with Al Quaid...Al was in tears most off the performance.....
Steel players seen are Jimmy Day, Jack Evins, and I think that is the rarely seen Jimmy Biggar at 11'00. Probably from 1955? Biggar had previously recorded with George Jones, but then faded back into the woodwork. Don't know what ever happened to his career, but he was a fine player. Passed away in 2001 in Etoile TX.
When ray first went to Nashville he roomed with Hank Williams , and when Hank died he took over hanks band the drifting cowboys , also before he became a professional singer he was training to be a vet ,
My Dad loved Ray Price and sang a lot of his songs in his little band. Crazy Arms was his favorite. Brings back great memories ❤️🎶🎶❤️ Thanks for posting

Real country music, Grade A, prime. Nobody sang better than Ray Price.
Ray passed away on this day in 2013. Thanks for the great music.
Never get to hear enough of neighbor East Texan Ray Price .. wish there were still these class acts as Ray..thanks for the ride
Notice nothing in their ears they are completely in sink without all the junk they use this day. Beautiful harmony. Love these two. RIP

In sink
Most impressive is that there's no Auto Tune, or the Anti Suck Device, as I've always called it...😉

What a pleasure and a treat it is to see these sweet and charming performances. Thank you, whoever posted this!
This is the music that started my love for Ray Price music, Ray had several styles over the years all great,however these early ones are my favorite,
My num one hero. Ray is truly credited with saving country music from the rock and roll craze of the 1950s
Crazy Arms one of the biggest Country Music hits ever recorded by Ray in 1956. You know it's classic when artists are still singing it in 2024!
Seen Jack Evins on the non pedal steel also, on Crazy Arms. Looked like Bud Isaacs in there too.
From right down the road from here in

Thats what makes it real,untouched👍
His clothing style and music style changed over the years, but his talent never dimmed.
Yes indeed Crazy Arms recorded by Ray 1956 was huge. Classic today. Artists still performing it in 2024.
One of the best country singer. Ever
With the also excellent singer/guitarist Van Howard. I used to exchange emails with him, he was a nice man.
Paradise ❤️

How could real country get better?Today's music since George Strait retired is crap.
Check out the C+W Go Go Girls

Who is the man singing harmony.
It’s van Howard
When ray first went to Nashville he roomed with Hank Williams , and when Hank died he took over hanks band the drifting cowboys , also before he became a professional singer he was training to be a vet ,
👍
Van Howard was a nice looking guy himself ....
Go to the "Rodney Crisp" channel. REAL country is being kept alive on that channel.
Peerless Price!
What happened to the real world where there were real singers ?
Go to "Rodney Crisp" channel......REAL country music still today.
