Harold Ray Bradley (January 2, 1926 – January 31, 2019) was an American guitarist and entrepreneur, who played on many country, rock and pop recordings and produced numerous TV variety shows and movie soundtracks. Having started as a session musician in the 1940s, he became part of the Nashville A-Team. He is one of the most recorded guitarists in music history.[1][2] Bradley worked closely with his older brother Owen, and in 1954 Owen and Harold established Bradley Film and Recording Studio, later commonly referred to as the Quonset Hut Studio, which was the first music industry-related business in what is now known as Music Row.[3]
