I ran into a man at WM here many years ago and I thought to myself "he looks just like Ray Price". I just kind of walked up and said something casual to him. When he answered with 3 words there was no doubt. It was him. I swooned.
I lost my husband of 55 years almost 4 years ago and this song fits me to a tee. When you lost your soulmate. you really do not want anyone else ever. This song says it all.
my dad introduced me to Ray in 1948 and I have followed him for 74 years and loved every one. Pretty soon I hope to join Ray in heaven and listen to all his new songs. God Bless you Ray
HE WILL ALWAYS BE THE CHIEF, He was one of the very BEST COUNTRY singers of ALL times.........God's got him now in his band and they are still singer all those great songs, RIP RAY, we are missing you here on earth, but we still play your music everyday and that will never stop as long as I am alive...........The C COWBOYS will be there before long!
I saw Ray in person when he was 81, and again when he was 83 years old. His voice was still stellar. He amazed the crowd with his voice. He moved around slow, but when he started to sing, it was WOW!
Thanks to HPR radio a us country music station (real country music) where I first heard Ray Price or at least heard his name , what a singer in his young days and definitely in his mature years, this is 2021 and I’m irritating my wife by constantly playing him. Btw HPR, is dependent on public contributions to keep going, I’m a listener from Ireland, so no connection, but would urge all country music lovers to contribute to keep them on air
A beautiful rendition of the Ray Price classic. And the writer Hank Cochran in the house! The Fabulous Superlatives doing a yeoman's job making things seem like time stood still.
Don't get me started on Ray Price. There's not enough space on utube. No one and I mean no one can sing like this great man. Great voices? Oh yeah there are great voices. Elvis. Roy Orbison. Carpenter. Striesand. Sinatra. Pavarortta. Reeves. Cline. But for me it all comes back to this man who from the first note out of his mouth, you know. It it's said that Orbison had the greatest voice in popular music/ rock music, then Mr. Noble Ray Price has the greatest voice ever in country music.
Ray studied to sing opera, but he could sing Pop, Jazz and ruled Country. You're right Austin, all he had to do was open his mouth and out came pure beautiful music.
This song fits so many situations. While mine is not a love story, looking back at the many great times in my life makes my old age more palatable. Ray does it well.
I listen to these songs and I get my dad back for a few fleeting minutes. I miss you pop, more than words can say, Thanksgiving won't be the same without you. Thanks Ray, I hope you're both having fun wherever you are and it ain't too hot, lol.
You know the older he got, the more you could see his Native American Cherokee roots come through. He looks like an old distinguished Chief without the ceremonial "Warbonnet" headress. What a marvelous singer, truly a legendary Icon in Country Music..
This is the first time I’ve heard Junior sing a ballad. Mercy, what a great voice. I honestly thought I was hearing an earlier Ray Price. I’m a new fan, Junior.
I am a country western singer and song writer I was so blessed to have got to meet Mr Ray price when I was 19 years old at Cain's Ball room in Tulsa Oklahoma my mother Kathy. Stewart and ben Stewart took to the show I was listening to this great singer since I was 15 years old I got to go back stage and meet my idel though the help of Mr gene gasaway the fidel player one of the best from Mansfield ark Ray took out time to talk to me and get a pic with him I was on cloud nine I told him I was a country singer and song writer, and make country music and writing my life , growing up listening to you has sertinly been an influence ,and it has to this day meeting Mr Price was 1970 through the years I have got to be the opening inertainer several times ,his influence is still with me today this is now 2017 for I am still playing singen country music and inertaing and writing country songs, thank yereou Mr Ray price God only made one Ray price and one great band the Cherokee boys thank you Gary d whatley
The industry did its best to abandoned him, but no way his fans were going to let that happen. This man was to country music what Elvis was to pop/rock!
Peter Styles Are you trying to start a fight, or do you just not know? He was way too late in being admitted to the Hall of Fame. He never achieved the accolades he should have. And, without a doubt the Nashville scene abandoned him for s period... perhaps they didn’t like it when he did some experimenting with violins and other styles. But, he was never as radical as many have been in country music. Personally, I’m glad he did what he did. In my mind, he was one of the best and no one in country sang better. He was def a link to Hank Williams Sr. , and the last of the old time greats. Without Ray Price, there would have been no Willie Nelson, and he knew it.
He never lost that great voice ,,you’ll never see his kind again ,,,when he first got to Nashville he roomed with Hank Williams and took over hanks band the drifting cowboys when Hank died ,
I will never understand who made the industry bosses the arbiters of what the listeners want to hear. Ray Price had so many hit songs and made these very people a whole lot of money, and they just wanted to toss him aside. Well mow he sings where you can't silence him. We are a "throw away" society and that includes people. That is too, too sad. I miss you Ray...
This song is the best answer I have for my being able to survive. The song is so beautiful. I have listened to it many times, and I have never tired of it. God Bless Ray.
He's coming out with a new CD the end of this month some old songs he's never recorded before, this CD is dedicated to his fans. One of the songs will be "Among My Souvenirs". And believe me he's still The Master and he's still at work!!!
RIP Ray. But the RPS (Ray Price Shuffle) will always live on! I finally figured out what makes the RPS really groove is the bass and piano exactly doubling the bass line! Check it out.
He does this song on several CDs over the years. It's on the Essential Ray Price, Touch My Heart, Help Me Make It Through The Night and Golden Hits CDs.
Really nice Thanks...we need to get this new crap off the radio...they have literally shoved everyone off in the dumpster...I'm ashamed of country music city..
Thanks Carol Perkins, I miss the group. I still have no idea why my FB account was disabled, they gave some stupid reason that made no sense. Tell everyone HI for me.
Is er ergens een plaats op deze Aardbol waar ik terecht kan,Ik ben het hier moe wel wil Ik mede delen dat na Mij in dit huis niemand meer komt te wonen omdat Ik hier een vloek heb opgelucht ,en al die gene die Mij het leven zuur hebben gemaakt zullen zwaar worden gestraft en met de woning bouwvereniging de leiding gevende komen ook aan de beurt!CHRIST.
One of the greatest songs ever! My dad lived this,this lifestyle! He was a great man , and lead me! ! It's all about love and respect!.
There is just something so “hauntingly beautiful” about his voice.

That’s real Country with so much class♥️

His voice is timeless. He sounds even better with the years. His voice has a warmness to it. I love this man and his music.
Hello Trush
He is truly timeless. I've been a fan since the 60s!❤
His voice remained beautiful as he aged. and the songs are just timeless.
Wonderful music. He was #1.
He was one of my favorites. His songs are all great
I saw Ray in person when he was 81, and again when he was 83 years old. His voice was still stellar. He amazed the crowd with his voice. He moved around slow, but when he started to sing, it was WOW!
No words can say how no one could sing it better. He will be missed.

I lost my wife of 38 years almost a year ago and this song really helps me survive it is a real beautiful piece.
My favorite singer and my favorite song is FOR THE GOOD TIMES. what a voice...
Saw Ray on his birthday in 2012. He was so great, it was stunning. His voice never deserted him. Thank you Mr. Price RIP
Agree...I am 50 and grew up hearing this man in the background of my life..
I think his voice got better as he got older

That's why they called him "The Voice."
@@gringobob5671 That was Vern Gosdin ,
@@jeweldotson3891 Your're right about that. I remember Dallas Wayne calling Ray that when Ray stopped in Willie's Place a year or so before he passed.
it was said by some in his band-- when ray hit a high note-- it was like hearing the glass break..
I survive on Ray Price music, play it every day on my old stereo!
Hello Dorithy
Simply superb song and singer.
This song fits so many situations. While mine is not a love story, looking back at the many great times in my life makes my old age more palatable. Ray does it well.

Ray price has such a beautiful voice I love him

This is the first time I’ve heard Junior sing a ballad. Mercy, what a great voice. I honestly thought I was hearing an earlier Ray Price. I’m a new fan, Junior.
To say to much would be to say to little, what a man.
songs that " touch my heart" what a truly great singer.
Just how good could it get?R.I.P. Ray.Thanks for the memories.
I love Ray Price's music. But this song resonates in my heart.
Oh baby love me some Ray Price
I sure adore your songs they all are very heart warming love u Ray you have.left a lot of you with us.
Born in 1926, Ray Price would have been 84 yrs. old when this was recorded.
The greatest of all time, got better with age.
Ray,never lost it,at his age-87,he still had the voice. What a legend. A close friend of Hank Sr.'s ,too.
He was a guitar player in Hank Sr's band.
Great control. wow in his 80s! Tenor tone extrordinaer. Sang my and wife's song.

Beautiful song and wonderful singer.
Mr. Noble Ray Price would have celebrated his 88th birthday yesterday (Jan 12) but now he's singing with the BEST of the BEST, himself included!
The industry did its best to abandoned him, but no way his fans were going to let that happen. This man was to country music what Elvis was to pop/rock!
I would love to know what you mean by this. Why would the industry abandon such a great talent? Is there a Bio on Ray?
Peter Styles Are you trying to start a fight, or do you just not know?
He was way too late in being admitted to the Hall of Fame. He never
achieved the accolades he should have. And, without a doubt the Nashville
scene abandoned him for s period... perhaps they didn’t like it when he did
some experimenting with violins and other styles. But, he was never as radical as many

@@imagrandpa yep Chet Atkins was a dick, Rays 4x4 beat is awesome
Best singer of all time!
One of the most entertainers of our times .Love Him
when ray died country music lost its voice
Just wow. That’s all…. RIP Mr. Price
I grew upon country music.
My goodness,what a performance.The Sinatra of country.
He never lost that great voice ,,you’ll never see his kind again ,,,when he first got to Nashville he roomed with Hank Williams and took over hanks band the drifting cowboys when Hank died ,
Very few get better and better right up til the end... unbelievable
The Master at his Work!

We are a "throw away" society and that includes people. That is too, too sad. I miss you Ray...
waylon jenning in an interview said.. he was told to grow his hair out and wear it like he started to wearing it ...
I live this each day my wife pass away with big C in 2018 For me A Way To Survive
This song is the best answer I have for my being able to survive. The song is so beautiful. I have listened to it many times, and I have never tired of it. God Bless Ray.
Hank Sr then Ray, they will never be equaled!
SO BEAUTIFULLY SAD!!!! HE WAS A TREASURE!!!♡♡♡♡
I love his voice and his music
So effortless!
What an old SMOOTHY!!! Love ya Raymond!!!
My all time and forever favorite singer was Ray Price. Met him many times in Nashville.
I love this mans songs and music will not be another one who can take his place I drove his buss for him back in the 1990s high lite of my life.
Wonderful song
Great singer
Hello Faye
Great music as well.
love, love love his voice.
Ray has gone home. He is now singing with the angels. You are greatly missed, Ray. We will not see your likes again. Gerry in Asheville, NC.
Great voice.
Viva Ray. Viva Texas Music. Y viva SAN ANTONIO TEXAS
So glad I got to see him several times before he died, including the year that he died.
None better!
Ray price
Mercy, he was all over this great song.
why what a great song , 1st time i hear it ...thanks
wow. he was the best of the best.
I got to see Mr. Price twice. He was in his mid 80's both times. He had a classy show and I enjoyed them both. Really sad that he is gone.
Thank you for the words and ray price singing it.
He's coming out with a new CD the end of this month some old songs he's never recorded before, this CD is dedicated to his fans. One of the songs will be "Among My Souvenirs". And believe me he's still The Master and he's still at work!!!
amazing i love it

Love ray price
He does this song on several CDs over the years. It's on the Essential Ray Price, Touch My Heart, Help Me Make It Through The Night and Golden Hits CDs.
After 52 years of marriage, my husband left me for another woman! Music was my way to survive!
i miss my friend Ray I was his bus driver for a while
I just want to know, how does a guy write a song like this without feeling every inch of heartbreak?
mr cochran was married 6 times, number 5 was jeannie seely
For a guy with a fourth grade education, Hank Cochran was pretty good at writing poetry and putting music to it.
Love you Ray!!! Miss ya!!!!
Really nice Thanks...we need to get this new crap off the radio...they have literally shoved everyone off in the dumpster...I'm ashamed of country music city..
The master!
Ray Price, fiddle and pedal steel guitar. It doesn't get any better.
Fantastic! I don't recall this one. Must learn it and get it out there.
Bill Johnston was the
what a voice!
None better has ever sang a song.
I SO LOVE THIS SONG...XO
rip Ray nice
Ja det är såhär det känns,,,, 🦂🥀

Old crow for me
"Mr" Price .. "Mr" Stewart.? Yes..but Ray Price surely would have liked to be called Ray...here in Texas anyway.
wow--- mr cochran died -- july 15, 2010... And Mr Cochran was a looker, too......
Are there any questions….?
