On Saturday, December 12, 2020 the country music world lost another legend. Charley Pride died at age 86.
I always liked Charley Pride. I didn't know him personally, obviously, but he came across as a true southern gentleman to me. And he sang real country music. I'm listening to him right now on my iTunes. And I will be all day. His albums will be on repeat. :-)
My favorite Charley Pride song is "Roll On Mississippi". I also really like "Is Anybody Goin' to San Antone?". Of course, his most well known song is, "Kiss an Angel Good Morning". "Kaw-Liga" is a fun song too. I don't think there is a Charley Pride song I don't like.
RIP Charley Pride. Another great one gone. A true country music legend and a wonderful person. Thanks for the great music, Charley. You will be missed.
That's my two cents.
"Roll on Mississippi" has always been my favorite Charley Pride song. Reminds me if my childhood even though I didn't grow up on the Mississippi. Although I did serve next to the Mississippi on my mission.
