I wish the best for Ray. He is among the greatest singers ever and has always appreciated the steel guitar. My prayers are with him for a speedy and complete recovery.

If It wasn't for Ray Price we might not have as many steel players as we do. As I understand It he'd fire one at the drop of a hat. So a new player would get some good experance. It's kind of a standing joke that everyone has played for Ray Price at one time or another.
But Ray Price sure set the standard for country music for a lot of years.

And he started out as a pop singer!!!!

I watched Ralph Emery interview Price once and Price stated he never did care for the steel guitar.

Obviously Ray hasn't heard Jerry Garcia's steel playing yet.

Ray might not have cared much for the steel guitar but he always managed to have the best. And as I stated above he's a pop singer at heart but sure did give us a lot of years of real country music.
