During
his long and distinguished career,
Ray Price has accomplished the
remarkable feat of re-inventing hard-core
honky-tonk and also gaining success with
lushly arranged love ballads aimed at the country-and-pop
crossover market.
Whether clad in
rhinestone suits or
tuxedos, he has maintained an
independence characteristic of great
innovators in all artistic fields.
His first hit was with his No. 1 1956 hit
"Crazy Arms," played and sung to a
4/4 shuffle beat that is now an integral part
of country music. Price
was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1996.
Following the release of the studio album Time in
2002, he and Willie Nelson released
a classic-country duet album, Run That
By Me One More Time, in 2003.
