Ronnie Milsap poses with his star on the Music City Walk of Fame.

The pre-eminent country soul singer of his generation, he provided country music with one of its most important voices as the genre was moving beyond its rural roots into the mainstream of modern entertainment. Even as he mastered classical piano as a young boy, his heart belonged to hardcore country and rhythm-and-blues. Eventually, he forged his myriad of influences into a cosmopolitan style of country music that helped revolutionize Nashville. His track record speaks loud and clear: 40 No. 1 singles, over 25 million records sold, seven Grammy Awards, four Academy of Country Music Awards, and eight Country Music Association Awards. Together, they underscore Ronnie Milsap's position as one of the best-loved and most enduring artists in country music history.
