"I could sit and listen to this CD all day, I play it while I am on the computer, it is good value for the money, you get 20 songs."

Fabulous CD

"I bought the record almost 20 years ago and was so happy to find it on CD. I could also sit and listen to it for hours. It is Ray Price at his best."

Excellent Anthology Of Original Columbia Recordings (1967-19

Boomertunes | Illinois USA | 02/21/2009

"In the mid 1960's, honky tonker Ray Price began taking his music in a different direction. The swinging fiddles which graced his barroom shuffles evolved into lush violins that showcased his rich voice on haunting ballads. This transformation opened the door to create some of Price's greatest hits and produced several all time country classics as well.

"All Time Greatest Hits/All American Country" is a straight reissue of Columbia's "All Time Greatest Hits" from 1972.

Featuring twenty tracks, the selections are from seven LPs: "Danny Boy"(1967), "Take Me As I Am" (1968), "She Wears My Ring" (1968), "Sweetheart Of The Year"(1969), "You Wouldn't Know Love" (1969), "For The Good Times"(1970), and "I Won't Mention It Again" (1971).

Included are "countrypolitan" remakes of his early hits "Crazy Arms" and "Heartaches By The Number"; pop covers "By The Time I Get To Phoenix", "Little Green Apples", Yesterday", and "Bridge Over Troubled Water"; and Mickey Newbury's "Sweet Memories".

Of special note are the interpretations selected from the Kristofferson catalog: "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", "Loving Her Was Easier", and "I'd Rather Be Sorry".

The highlights, of course, are two Price signature songs-"For The Good Times" and "I Won't Mention It Again", both #1 chart songs and certified country classics.

All in all, a generous selection of songs representing a classic period for the Nashville Sound."

It's 1970 All Over Again . . .

"Ray Price. 1970. For the Good Times. Kris Kristofferson. End of Vietnam. Watergate. Was there something to cheer about? Yes, his name is Ray Price.

This is more than country music. It's country-politan music. A bit more sophisticated than even the hard-edged twang that one hears in country music today. This is tear-jerking country music at its best, but well-arranged and sophisticated, tear-jerking country music, if I may say. I can still remember my parents listening to this music and enjoying it, because this is enjoyable music. Okay, it's still country music, but it's well-orchestrated country music. A string section and vibraphone in the arrangements on Kristofferson's "For the Good Times"? This is more than country music - it's country-politan. Many tunes were most likely recorded at Columbia Records' New York studios when they were in their hey-day in the 1970s.

This music reminds me of Burt Bacharach's, but with a country tinge. The tunes are listenable and well-arranged. And then there's the deep, mellow, sweet, Welsh-American voice of Ray Price - our Tom Jones - but without the hype. If you are in a mellow mood (And, hey, whatever did happen to mellow moods?), then this album may be for you. The songs are self-explanatory, and gems to boot! Twenty of them! The Price (double-entendre intended) is right!

Little did I ever realize that I would be living in Texas one day, the birthplace of Ray Price. (Born in Perryville, Texas, in 1926, to be precise.) I guess we all grow up one day."

Ray Price All Time Greatest Hits

"Wonderful music - exactly what I expected. Other CDs I have reviewed on-line were not the original recordings. I am still looking for the CD "Country Gentleman" by Henry Mancini. In today's music environment, it is hard to find quality Artists who can sing. I also purchased the CD "My Country" by Brook Benton. It too is a 5-star listening experience.
