Ray Price dead at 87

There's been a lot of deaths among celebrities in recent days and each one deserves some note, but for fans of country music, the loss of Ray Price must be among the most sad and most notable.

I love this performance of "Crazy Arms," not only because it's such a great song, but because from the reactions of the band, it looks like someone might have cut one.

I think you're thinking of Ray Stevens.

I'm not sure that Ray Price would have touched that one with a ten-foot pole.

Ray Stevens is alive and well the last I heard.

Thanks Grady.

My mistake, I'm not a very big country music fan.
