Charlie Rich – Groove Recordings

 

Charles Allan Rich (December 14, 1932 – July 25, 1995) was an American country music singer, songwriter, and musician. His eclectic style of music was often difficult to classify, encompassing the rockabilly, jazz, blues, country, soul and gospel genres.

In the later part of his life, Rich acquired the nickname the Silver Fox. He is perhaps best remembered for a pair of 1973 hits, "Behind Closed Doors" and "The Most Beautiful Girl," which topped the U.S. country singles charts as well as the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles charts and earned him two Grammy Awards. Rich was inducted into the Memphis Music Hall of Fame in 2015.

Before turning his hand to country music, Charlie Rich was recording Rockabilly, Blues and Jazz. This 26 Track collection includes many rare and collectible tracks. Produced by Chet Atkins and recorded in RCA Victor's "Nashville Sound" Studio in Nashville, Tennessee, these were originally released on the Groove label, a subsidiary of RCA Victor.
