Yes, Eddy Arnold was one of the great ones! It is sad to know that soon there won't be any of the classic country singers left. I saw Eddy Arnold at the Utah State Fair (years ago). He sat on a stool and played his guitar and sang for over an hour - great show. He was my favorite, second to Jim Reeves.
