I didn’t think he was a whole decade older than Eno.

Thanks for making me feel heard and understood. I'm tempted to claim a copy of his release on Eno's Obscure Records label - it was pricey before but I can only imagine it will skyrocket now that he's passed.

Looking like $50 right now.

His entire catalog will be queued for the remainder of my week. <3

It's a very worthwhile and treasurable thing to hear and understand you. Thank YOU.

I'll be listening to Budd this week, as well. <3

Sad to see Charley Pride go. Legend in the blues/country genre, died from complications from guess what? RIP.

A luscious voice that couldn’t be denied

The only black guy I ever remember seeing on Hee Haw

Trollheart · 12-12-2020, 06:26 PM

The only song of his I know, and only because my elder sister (not Karen) had it when she was younger. Think it was in the charts. I was am-azed to find out the guy was black. He sure didn't sound it. Also, a black guy in country music was, so far as I knew, pretty rare, though of course I might be well wide of the mark there.

Are you sure the version you grew up on wasn’t the Charlie Rich version?

Trollheart · 12-12-2020, 06:45 PM

You know, it could be. I would have been at school at the time, so Charlie this or Charlie that, I probably wouldn't have cared. Let me listen to the two versions and see if they sound different to me.

Edit: Yeah, you got me. It was Rich not Pride. Oh well, still a great song and still RIP Charley Pride.

Wow, this is really my day for ****ing up and making a fool of myself isn't it?
In other words, just like every other day...

lol

Let’s just say it’s probably for the best you’re not giving a eulogy at his funeral

I’m glad you posted it though. He had a great voice. Even though he had a long life I still feel like covid deaths are a rip off because it really didn’t have to let it run rampant like we did. It’s definitely not going to be looked back on with pride but at least I know that I personally behaved correctly.
