Good to know the legends are still around and active. You go, Charlie!

I always loved “You’re My Jamaica”.

I grew up just a few miles from where Charlie grew up -me in Jackson, MS and him near Yazoo City, MS. We both played baseball but everything was segregated then and we never crossed paths. Years later he and I lived in Dallas at the same time and had many mutual friends. We never crossed paths then either. So, I almost know Charlie. :-)

he first African American in country music to land a No. 1 hit.Charlie's African American??? All these years I thought he was a baseball player who sang country like nobody else ever has. I've kissed my angel good morning every day since he sang that song 40 years ago (and loved her like the devil when the sun goes down!)...

I'm glad he is still alive. I haven't heard a word about him in years and I actually thought he had passed away.

I don’t think you’ll find a more perfect example of country and western music than Mr. Pride’s rendition of “All I Have to Offer You is Me.” Superb!
