Ray Stevens was born Harold Ray Ragsdale in Clarkdale, Georgia in January 1939. Clarkdale was a small cotton mill town 20 miles north of Atlanta. For more than 40 years, Ray Stevens has been entertaining us. From his novelty songs like "The Streak", to his tender ballads he has touched us.

Customer Reviews

great comedian and entertainer
I have always loved good comedy. I wore out my other cds so I needed new ones.

fun
A total trip down memory lane, this set was super fun. For those who are not already Ray Stevens fans, you might not like it... But if you appreciate a silly sense of humor, it's really funny. My ten year old loved it, but hubby thought it was annoying. I'll always love it though. :-)

As good as ever
Ray stevens is one of the funniest guys when it comes to musical comedy. This CD collection is a good collection of his work. It would be a great collection but for the fact not all of his songs are on it.
