Michael Gray
Friday, May 21, 2004
Nashville's R&B was as good as, and in some ways closely related to, the country music that made the city famous. Michael Gray produced the two-disc compilation from CMF Records called Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues 1945-1970, which dovetails with the Country Music Hall of Fame's 2004-05 exhibit of the same name.
