Ace Ball
g, *1920
Musician of Country and World
A.k.a. Arthur Balch
He was born Arthur Balch in 1920 in New Home, Texas. By 1948, he was playing guitar and recording with Hank Harral and His Palomino Cowhands. Ace Ball put recording aside for a time and became a disk jockey on KDAV (Lubbock, Texas), then on KERB (Kermit, Texas) in 1956 and finally on KHEM (Big Spring, Texas) in 1959. It was in 1959 that he returned to the studio, this time for Caprock with “High School Wedding Ring.” Ace Ball would continue to record sporadically over the years—including on his own Ace-Hi label in 1968— but his primary occupation continued to be that of disc jockey. He continued to perform around his adopted home of Pueblo, Colorado, where family obligations had lead him in the late 1970‘s. Ace died in 2004 from a fatal head injury after falling down a flight of stairs, just after having performed at a local senior center.
