He was a great singer who, from what I've read, was a true gentleman. May he RIP.

Got to see him at State Fair back in 80's. Had a couple of his cassettes Id play in my Urban Cowboy 150 Ford Exploder with the gun rack in the window during my Okie phase.

I like The Snakes Crawl At Night. I think it was a song about the Democrats

Got to meet him when I was a kid. Super nice guy.
And he did a heck of a great remake of Hank Williams “Kaliga” !
Not to mention “Anybody Going To San Antonio!

Rest In Peace Charlie !!!

We sure are losing the good ones fast.




Take care, Willie

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.

What a voice on this guy!

Rest in Peace, Charley Pride.

My Mom and I really loved him.

We can sing just about every last song of his, and without sounding like a creature passing on even.
