Claude Gray

[Paul King]

I saw this morning where Claude Gray passed on Friday. He had several hit songs including Family Bible as well. I met him last year at a local singing and his voice was still smooth on he was definitely on the money. RIP Claude Gray, you will definitely be missed.

Here is the obituary.

[Emmett Roch]

In 2003 or so, we lived in northeastern Spain. We had two local country music clubs that were our homes-away-from-home, and one of them hired me to play steel at several shows behind Mr Gray. At that time, we were moderators for a now-defunct online country music forum, so we were further honored to interview him. We knew several people in common and I knew his songs, so it was a great chapter in our lives to meet him.

[Larry Dering]

A good one gone home. Claude was old school country and a fine singer. I remember him well. Rip Claude. My prayers for his family and friends.

[Gary Hoetker]

What a great, commanding voice and sadly one of the last of the stars of the 1960’s.

[Joe Krumel]

He sang smooth as silk. Class act. RIP.

[Ricky Davis]

RIP, Mr Gray. Even though my mentor Lloyd Green only played on this album, he thoroughly enjoyed your singing and songs, we'll remember you always.
