Ray Price Albums (53)
What The Critics Say
Prisoner of Love is the first release from Ray Price since 1992's Sometimes a Rose. Here the Cherokee Cowboy continues his mixture of lush string arrangements with his outstanding ability to project melancholy lyrics. These 12 tracks are divided between the country side of his repertory "I've Got a New Heartache" and "Better Class of Losers" along with standards like "Fly Me to the Moon" and "Body and Soul." ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide

What The Critics Say
Fans of Ray Price or Bob Wills won't want to miss the Price's 1961 album, San Antonio Rose: A Tribute to the Great Bob Wills. Price, who acknowledged Wills as a primary influence, became the first of many to devote an album to covering the songs of the renowned master of Southwestern dance music. Price recorded the album in a nine-hour period, utilizing many of Nashville's best musicians, including guitarist Grady Martin, fiddler Tommy Jackson, pedal steel specialist Jimmy Day and pianist Pig Robbins (in one of his first Nashville sessions). Also sitting in on acoustic guitar was a new Music City arrival, a little-known songwriter named Willie Nelson, who had just been hired to crank out songs for Price's publishing company. The record finds Price crooning with smooth, easy richness while the band lets it fly. ~ Michael McCall, All Music Guide

What The Critics Say
The brief, 10-track collection American Originals contains several of Ray Price's biggest hits -- including "Crazy Arms," "Under Your Spell Again," "Faded Love," "For the Good Times" and "Funny How Time Slips Away" -- dividing the album between his '50s honky tonk hits and his '60s countrypolitain singles. American Originals misses many of Price's most famous songs, such as "My Shoes Keep Walking Back to You" and "City Lights," usually at the expense of covers of songs made famous by other vocalists ("Crazy"). And that means, American Originals isn't an ideal collection and only of use to budget-minded, casual fans, and those who want a handful of his latter-day singles; The Essential Ray Price: 1951-1962 is a preferable compilation. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
