I've mentioned several times how much Ray Charles loved country music. There was never a better example than his landmark album "Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music," released in 1962 and containing this song, written and first done by Don Gibson. This reached #1 on the pop, easy listening and R&B charts. Willie Nelson once said "Modern Sounds" "did more for country music than any one artist has ever done." Willie was right!
