RIP Charley Pride

 




I hope these play for you.

I have a copy of this particular Charley Pride album, I remember buying it way back when my kids were little, I'm not sure exactly where it is, somewhere in my kids house, in a big plastic tub along with a bunch of other old albums.

      Elephant's Child; I'm betting he is up on God's Observation Deck, singing to all the baby Angels.

    My father and step mother loved his music. While it wasn't my kind of music then, it wasn't bad.

      Andrew; I liked his music although I didn't listen to much of it. We enjoyed the Christmas album, with the above songs being the kids favourites every year.

    My mom loved him. She had a 45 of "Kiss an Angel Good Morning" that we played all the time.

      Margaret D; we had a couple of albums, the Christmas one and I think the "greatest hits" or "best of" or similar.

      Granny Annie; he was very easy to listen to, could understand the lyrics, no swearing or screaming, a real family friendly singer.

    He has always been a favorite and was so pleased that he was given the life time achievement award last month at the CMA's. I would hate to think that he got the Covid there but am just grateful he was able to live long to be properly honored.

      messymimi; he's definitely in the choir up there now, probably on God's Observation Deck.

If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val .
