Legends - Charley Pride

UK 3-CD set. Charley Pride was the first African-American country superstar, and these days it's hard to believe that his earliest records, like his 1965 debut 'Snakes Crawl At Night', (written by Mel Tillis) were originally released without his picture on the 45 sleeve. By 1967 and 'Just Between You And Me', however, country fans knew him and embraced him. This compilation, which includes those two songs, features 29 Number One country hits, each sung by Pride in his unmistakable twangy baritone. 50 tracks in total. BMG. 2006.
