RONNIE MILSAP Vinyl Records and CDs

Veteran country hit maker Ronnie Milsap is inextricably linked to the pop country and country-politan hits he had in the late '70s and early '80s. However, this blind singer/piano player has had a long and varied career that has included not only stints as a session musician on recordings by artists as diverse as J.J. Cale and Elvis Presley, but also a recording career that started right after he finished high school in 1963. Although the sentiments and sounds of his biggest hits could come across as saccharine at times, Milsap is an amazingly adept triple threat performer/instrumentalist/songwriter with a wonderfully elastic voice who is at his best when performing in the country-soul vein that has remained a significant part of his deep recorded catalog.
