Remembering Charley Pride
Industry and radio friends and colleagues share their
remembrances of Country Music Hall of Famer Charley Pride,
who passed over the weekend.
• Cumulus’ Brian Philips: When I was PD at KPLX (The
Wolf)/Dallas in 1999, I would see him at Las Colinas Golf Club,
where he was a member and played all the time. I knew it was
Charley, but I was shy. Eventually, I got up the courage to talk to
him and tell him his records were some of the first country songs
I heard and really appreciated. I also told him he was no friend
to the DJ, as most of them were only two minutes long – he could
have added one more chorus on the way out. He laughed because
he’d heard that a lot from radio people. “Everyone made short
songs back then,” he said. “Country
stations played 50 songs an hour!”
He warmed to the conversation
effortlessly, was generous with his
time and looked me in the eye.
I’m sure he suffered unbearable
indignities in his life, but all that felt

number of similar stories that had a huge impact
on me. I was in my twenties, and it was the first
time in my life I knew someone who had gone
through that. I had no idea what he had endured
and that he continued to be treated that way even
though he had become a star.
Fast forward to 2008 when Alison Krauss,
Brad Paisley and Charley were invited to play
for President Obama shortly after his election.
Onstage, Charley was choked-up beyond
belief. He looked at the President and First Lady
and said to them, “I never thought that in my
lifetime I would ever see this day.” After the
performance, President Obama hugged Charley.
It was emotional. From being a “colored” man
who could not use the store restroom to being
embraced by a Black man who was President
of the United States and calling Charley “an
inspiration” – it was an incredible moment.
