I was working construction in 1969 as a brick mason's helper. My buddy and I were college boys and we didn't like country music we liked Jimi Hendrix! But those redneck masons listened to country all day long on the transistor radio.
One day, some guy was singing a song, and Bud the mason said to me "Hey college boy, did you know that guy is a ni**er?"
I just thought he was kidding. It was hard to believe that the country music crowd would embrace a black guy.
Now I am more sophisticated in my musical tastes and I realize what a great singer Charley Pride was. I listened to Country Classics all the time when I was on the road in the Big Rig and I particularly liked Crystal Chandeliers, and Anybody Going to San Antone. I drove I 10 through San Antonio over 600 times so I could really relate to that song.
