Ray Peterson, born in Texas in 1935, was a singer with an extraordinary four-octave range, enabling him to reach extremely high notes, and that distinctive talent enabled him to get a recording contract with RCA after he moved to Los Angeles.
He had a number of hits, the biggest and most memorable of which were with two very different landmark songs – the teenage tragedy saga “Tell Laura I Love Her”, and the dramatic balled “The Wonder Of You”, later taken to new heights by Elvis Presley.
This 36-track 2-CD collection comprises most of his A and B sides on the RCA and Dunes labels from this era, which include the titles from his album “Tell Laura I Love Her”.
It features his big US hits with the original versions of “The Wonder of You” and “Tell Laura I Love Her” and his other hits from these years, including “Goodnight My Love”, “Answer Me My Love”, “Corrine Corrina” and “Missing You.
He was a highly distinctive and notable talent, who was one of the many artists whose career was submerged by the British Invasion, and this collection offers a enjoyable overview of his work from the primary era of his career.
