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

one of my favorite songs by him. And this one to

Posted By: simonkenton7 Re: Charlie Pride RIP - 12/12/20
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.

God Bless His Soul frown

So did I. It's ironic that my father was playing Charlie Pride on the 8-track while we were on the way to go camping.

"The snakes crawl at night" was playing. It was one of the things I was worried about, along with hundreds of vicious bears......

When you are 9 years old, you think a lot of stupid things. And I got to where I liked Charlie's music.
