One of the stories i read about Willie Nelson and Ray Price was Ray had Willie take care of his Prize Rooster while he and his wife was leaving on a trip and would be gone for awhile. No problems at first then the Rooster killed one Willie's wife chickens, and this happen several times finally Willie called Ray several times but Ray was to busy to come by to get it. The last straw was after another chicken was killed Willie's wife gave Him a ultimate Either that Rooster goes or You go. Willie got his shotgun and later told Ray what happen and He was pissed and didn't speak to Willie for long time, Shows how Willie and Ray are no different then you or I. Read Willie's Bio. love both, and Ray's "Heartaches by the number" one of my favorites, but i have many.

I sing Loretta & Ray Price at karaoke frequently, also going to a Blue-grass Band Showcase (no cover!) tonite!

Count me in, I especially like ol’ Hank. Bluegrass is nice for awhile.

What I really like best is classical, especially Chopin.

The cultural world in which it originated is practically extinct. But I agree. The 'old timey' country music was far more authentic than the stuff coming out of Nashville today.
