In the field of honky-tonk, singer Ray Price is a hard-core legend the equal of Hank, Lefty, and George Jones. So, when in 1970 he came out with the Kris Kristofferson-penned "For the Good Times," purists felt betrayed by the single's more than prominent string section. Most of the country audience couldn't be bothered by such arbitrary distinctions, though, and were instead wowed by an arrangement that was jaw-droppingly gorgeous and a crooning Price vocal that was the definition of dignified heartbreak. A huge country and pop hit, "For the Good Times" ushered in a new era of lush, countrypolitan popularity for Price, a period that's well documented here. As a proud Price often says in concert these days: "Ladies and gentleman, strings!" --David Cantwell

    1 out of 5 stars Remakes.......2005-08-13

    When dealing with Ray Price cd's, pay attention to the fact that he has re-recorded his greatest hits many times.

    This collection is a good example. All remakes, all well done, but remakes anyway.

    Beware anytime you see the name "Tee Vee," it is a sure sign of remakes.

    4 out of 5 stars Worth Hearing and Owning.......2005-01-02

    Like the reviewers here who panned this disc, I too prefer the 'original' honky-tonk Ray Price. If you are going to own only one Ray Price disc, this should not be your first choice. However, this guy has golden pipes and lends his folksy dignity to all of these tunes.

    This is a fine disc, and Price handles country 'pop' better than anyone I know. If you are a Ray Price fan, find a spot for this one in your collection.

    1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money!.......2003-09-11

    This CD is horrible. Gone are the twin fiddles and honky-tonk sound. Known for his hitting high notes with perfect percision, Ray disappoints his listeners by having backup singers hit the high notes. The accompaning music is fully orchestrated and sounds like it should be backing Tony Bennett instead of country legend, Ray Price.

    3 out of 5 stars Not the Ray Price I Remember.......2002-06-17

    Where have you gone Ray Price. What happened to your tearful renditions of songs from the fifties? Why did you go pop on us and start singing sweet? Probably an albumn that will gather dust on my shelf. Danny Boy? You've got to be kidding me!

    5 out of 5 stars Take me as I am (or let me go).......2000-03-09

    Take me as I am (or let me go) will always have a place of its own in country music..as will Ray Price..Burning Memories.. Talk to your heart. The other woman..this album is chock full of Ray Price at his best.and then there is one that is special to me and lots of other fans,"For the Good Times"..this is a wonderful album..as it has so many of his best on it.
