Country
music's Gene Price achieved his success within the orbits of
Buck Owens and
Merle Haggard, the two leading
exponents of "the Bakersfield sound" during the second half of the 1960s. As a
musician, Price's primary instrument was the bass, which he played on some of
Haggard's studio recordings and
on-stage during 1969-1970, including the 1969 live album Okie from Muskogee, on
which he was also featured singing lead on "In the Arms of Love," a song he'd co-written
with Owens. His work also turned up in
the hands of such performers as Owens
protégé Susan Raye and Bakersfield
pioneer Wynn Stewart
(both of whom covered that song). His other compositions include "The Biggest
Storm of All," "Natural Born Loser," "Across This Town and Gone," "Something's
Wrong," "I'll Be Alright Tomorrow," and "I've Carried the Torch Much Too Long"
-- all of those were written in collaboration with
Owens and date from 1969-1970. As one
might gather from that song list, Price's greatest strength lay in ballads.
