Smiley ,Sad news indeed. I was thinking of the time at reel Country where he got up on stage to sing harmony with me. Just thought I'd post a little of Ray the way I remember him. May he rest in peace. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=VPH5J31a8Xw http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=dGy4Q1dszEA http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=q4KMUeq4_Pw

What a small world....The first country band I played in at 19 years old, was with Ray Emmett...From what I remember of him, he was a great guy. After leaving Birmingham, I had never run into him again...RIP old friend...
