Editorial Reviews

Country Music legend Charley Pride has an established history of recording Grammy award-winning spiritual music. Some years ago, Pride won two Grammy Awards related to his Gospel album Did You Think To Pray -- Best Sacred Performance, Musical (Non-Classical) for the album, as well as Best Gospel Performance Other Than Soul for his single "Let Me Live." Pride's latest sonic journey into the realm of inspirational music features a rich array of classic Gospel hymns, modern Christian Music standards, and some divine new gems. Also included are a pair of noteworthy duets and a nod back at his spiritual music past with the "Gospel Medley." Pride's duets with fellow Country Music legends Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson are definite highlights of the new album, especially considering that Parton and Nelson wrote the respective songs on which they duet with Pride.

5.0 out of 5 stars Charley knocks one out of the park, August 13, 2008

Ex-Baseball player Charley Pride had 29 #1 Billboard Country Hits between 1969 & 1983. He also has the distinction of recording the first Gospel Album to hit #1. This was the Grammy winning 1971 release "Did You Think To Pray". Unfortunately, that album has never been released on CD. This collection, "Pride & Joy", is almost as good, incredibly 35 years has not diminished the heartfelt, soulful singing of Charley Pride. I heartily recommend this CD to anyone who likes Charley and/or masterfully done Southern Country Gospel Music. The duets with Dolly & Willie are a nice bonus, but every track is a home run in my book.
