For over 40 years Ray Stevens has entertained us with his novelty songs, his satire and even an inspiring ballad or two along the way. Ray Stevens' humor is keenly observant and rich in nuance, yet he puts it across with such an unpretentious, unaffected style that it can be easy to overlook the fertile mind needed to create such guileless entertainment. The Best Of Ray Stevens CD collects 20 songs that made him country's greatest humorist including his spoofs on everything from Tarzan movies (Gitarzan) to popular crazes (The Streak) to fraternal organizations (Shriner's Convention) proving that there'll never be a shortage of laughs as long as Ray Stevens is around to observe and comment.
