Charley Pride died today from Covid-19 complications. When I interviewed him for Irish radio, his fans and country music lovers all over Ireland, loved our little chat. So, here in memory of the man, and for this fans and family, is the master tape of the interview, uncut and minus music. It's just a good conversation with a true gentleman who, let it not be forgotten, broke racial barriers in country music. R.I.P Charely Pride
