This day 73 short years ago, a country music legend was born. Although he has me by almost 50 years, I cant get enough Charley Pride. The inspiration of so many modern country stars, Mr. Pride has sold 70 million albums and 36 No. 1 country singles, he has sold more records for the RCA than anybody except Elvis Presley. Before music came baseball, as Charley actually made the pros. Now, though, he still tours the country regularly playing music, he hasn't gotten a hand back into baseball as part owner of the Texas Rangers. Here is his best known song to help celebrate. Happy birthday Charley!
