Chanteur, guitariste et songwriter, Ray Price restera comme une voix mythique de la country music, dotée d’un bel organe grave. Une voix qui sublima des standards tels que Release Me, Crazy Arms, Heartaches By The Number, For The Good Times, Night Life ou bien encore You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me. Il fut surtout un artisan essentiel dans les évolutions stylistiques que vivra le genre musical au milieu des années 50, après la mort d’Hank Williams. Une country music qui se musclera pour s’éloigner de ses sonorités originelles. Quant à Pamper Music, la société d’édition que Ray Price dirigera avec Hal Smith et Claude Caviness, elle épaulera les débuts de nombreux songwriters parmi lesquels Harlan Howard, Hank Cochran et Willie Nelson. Willie justement qui célèbre ici la mémoire de Price. Quand une légende rend hommage à une autre légende en quelque sorte. Avec For The Good Times - A Tribute To Ray Price, Willie Nelson revisite le répertoire de celui qui ne fut autre que son boss au sein des Cherokee Cowboys au début des années 60. Par la suite, la route de ces deux géants n’a cessé de se croiser. Enregistré aux studios Ocean Way, là même où Price mis en boite son dernier album Beauty Is… quelques mois avant de mourir le 16 décembre 2013, l’hommage accueille Vince Gill sur six titres. Derrière la console, Fred Foster et Bergen White ont façonné un son assez luxuriant. Un habit de lumière pour mieux faire briller les grands standards que sont notamment Heartaches By The Number, Faded Love, It Always Will Be, City Lights, Don’t You Ever Get Tired of Hurting Me, Night Life, Crazy Arms ou bien encore For The Good Times. Le plus touchant de l’affaire reste peut-être la voix si unique de Willie Nelson qui, à 83 ans passés, offre une vulnérabilité renversante. Sur la voix justement, certains des fans de Ray Price n’avaient guère goûté son passage du honkytonk vers un style plus crooner, mais l’intéressé assumait à 100% ses évolutions stylistiques : « Il n’y a aucune différence à chanter une chanson country habillé en costume de cowboy et ensuite, passer derrière le rideau, vêtu cette fois d’un smoking et entonner la même chanson mais avec des arrangements pop. C’est la même chose. » Après Gershwin, Sinatra ou bien encore le Great American Songbook, Willie Nelson se montre une fois encore expert dans les disques-hommages et les reprises de choix. © MZ/Qobuz
