Some of his well-known recordings include "Release Me", "Crazy Arms", "Heartaches by the Number", "For the Good Times", "Night Life", and "You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me".  He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1996.  Price continued to record and tour well into his mid-eighties. [PAR] [TLE] Release Me (1949 song) [SEP] "Release Me" (sometimes rendered as "Release Me (and Let Me Love Again)"), is a popular song written by Eddie "Piano" Miller and Robert Yount in 1949.  Shortly afterward it was covered by Jimmy Heap & the Melody Masters (1953), and with even better success by Patti Page (1954),Ray Price (1954), and Kitty Wells (1954).  Subsequently, Jivin' Gene [Bourgeois] & the Jokers covered the tune in 1960, and that version served as an inspiration for Little Esther Phillips, who reached number one on the R&B chart and number eight on the pop chart with her big-selling cover.  A version by Engelbert Humperdinck reached number one on the UK Singles Chart.  The Everly Brothers followed in 1963, along with Jerry Wallace (1966), Dean Martin (1967), Engelbert Humperdinck (1967), and many others in the years after.
