Depending on when it was recorded, that would be Jimmy Day or Buddy Emmons.

Hi! It is a double record set, "Ray Price Greatest Hits". It has I won't mention it again"..For the good times...Little Green Apples" etc. The songs are all good, but I think he could sing any song and make it sound "great".He has always been one of my favorites!
If you have any questions E-mail me.

Karen,
I have the same album. The copyright date,on the back of the album,says "1972",so its kinda hard to tell.
At times,it sounds like Day,& then again it sounds like Emmons. I would venture to say,on a "percentage basis",60%-Emmons,40%-Day. I realize that's not much help,but back then,those guys were so tight with each other,that they used to "play off" one another constantly. I could ask Buddy,but that was so far back that I don't think that even he would remember. Sorry I wasn't much help. Best I can do.

| I have the book that came with the Ray Price 10 CD box set from Bear Family records. The book contains all of the particulars about each song, taping date & time, musicians, etc. Let me look it up and I'll get back to ya. I think it was BE.

| According to Winnie's book, page 118, column 2, it was Jimmy Day on Crazy Arms. Will confirm with the Box Set book once I find it again. |
