All along he had a passion for country music and he excelled in it whenever he sang country songs. How did he know this? The reaction and feedback from the audiences told him so. Ralph also plays the harmonica, the clarinet and most importantly is a songwriter. In 2006 he made a conscious decision to focus his attention entirely on country music simply because it is the kind of music that speaks from the heart and Ralph is that person, he puts emotion into his vocals and makes it felt when singing country music. Ralph’s achievements are reflected in his two CD’s titled, “I’ll share my world with you” and his “Tribute” to the late and great, “Buck Owens” whose music had a tremendous influence on him from the 60s. These two CD’s potentially scored Ralph a record deal in Nashville Tennessee with. “Universal Sound Records” which eventuated in November 2006. He now has a hot new country album titled, “A High Price” which is has since been released. The album is characterised by the famous Nashville sound and has been produced by T. Jae Christian CEO of Universal Sound Records. Of the 10 original and two cover songs on the album, three have been written and composed by Ralph.
The album was recorded in Nashville by Mark Moseley, the best recording engineer that Nashville has ever produced and next only in line to Owen Bradley the greatest engineer whom the CMA America paid tribute to at the American Country Music Awards in 2006. The dynamics of the album are testimony to Marks superiority in engineering an album of unsurpassed standards. The album is now being played by country radio stations in and around the United States of America, Australia and some countries in Europe. Mentioned below are exercepts of comments made by T Jae’s Christian in his correspondence to Ralph. “I was delighted with your vocal performances, and knew right away that I could record a great country album on you here in Nashville!." You’re a fine country artist and a fine man also. I'm surely looking forward to recording a great album on you, and I know it will be a new shining star in your life! You’re a special country artist Ralph and that’s why I'm taking the time to make sure everything is right for you.”
Ralph believes that the key to success is in setting very high standards for himself and working hard to be a fan pleaser. He has a huge fan base in Melbourne and Sydney where he has performed on several occasions. Later this year Ralph hopes to represent the Universal Sound Record’s group of country artists in Europe and Ireland. Ralph is also receiving attention through other sources available to him in the USA and Europe to take himself to the next level of his career and is bracing himself for the ride of his life as soon as his new album is released. You’ve got to see and hear him “Live” to really appreciate the full potential of this great country singer who calls Australia home.
