88gibson 05-08-2008, 03:13 PM I just gave his best of album a spin the other day. It was one of my grandfather's in pristine condition. I've always loved "Make The World Go Away". He had a warm baritone voice that was very distinct. May he rest in peace.
Eddy Arnold co-wrote one of my favorite songs, "You Don't Know Me", which Ray Charles did an excellent reading of.

""I sing a little country, I sing a little pop and I sing a little folk, and it all goes together," he said in 1970.

KentTeffeteller 05-08-2008, 06:41 PM Hi,
Eddy Arnold is one of the greatest country singers the world over. A sad loss. Also, a superb songwriter and a superb gentleman. I am fortunate enough to have known him and he was a friend. He will be missed.

Cosmic 05-08-2008, 08:54 PM Eddy, thank you and rest in peace. I always loved his rendition of Don Robertson's "I Really Don't Want to Know."
An old-fashioned singing star. They don't do them that way anymore.
