Liner Note Author: Fred Foster. Recording information: The Sound Kitchen, Franklin, TN. Photographer: Nancy Lee Andrews. Time gathers together the surviving members of Price's Night Life-era band, including steel guitarist Buddy Emmons, for an all-star album of sorts that plays out as a near-perfect revisitation of the singer's classic era. Price is in excellent voice, astonishingly so at times, and it's a genuine pleasure to hear how well his talent has endured, even well into his seventh decade. ~ Jim Smith

Texan country singer Ray Price got the best possible start by having Hank Williams himself for a mentor. After Williams's death, Price began using Hank's Drifting Cowboys as a backup band and performing in a remarkably similar style. After putting together a new band to find his own sound, he essentially invented the 4/4 country shuffle, replacing the traditional country 2/4 beat. This combination of honky-tonk and Western Swing both influenced a whole school of country and helped pave the way for rockabilly. Besides his voluminous body of solo work, Price was also known for his latter-day collaborations with Willie Nelson, whose "Night Life" had been an early-'60s Price hit.
