CHARLEY PRIDE - COTTON FIELDS - LIVE

[HeWithHatZ]

The Creedence does this song much better

[janspray]

This song is great! Charley Pride is the best country singer of all time,

I've listened to him for about 40 years

[LLMorse1]

Yeah, well..my name is Lowell Lee Morse. And this man sings good.

I like Charlie Pride, his is a good singer, and performer.

Let 'em sing, He's Good.

[deweynumber1]

his real name was Huddie Ledbetter he called himself Lead belly

[deweynumber1]

I like the Leadbelly one best that was the original

[TheCorsicananorwood]

Only The Charlie Pride could get by with this.  He was the ...er is the best.

[t17burroughsfarms]

This is from the Charlie Pride Live At Panther Hall album with the legendary Lloyd Green on the pedal steel. Yes, true country. Yes, today's Top 40 is garbage. I'm glad I see your anger every place I go for true country because some day we will take it back.

@t17burroughsfarms

Where can I get that album? I grew up on the 8 track, but I swear its the one you mentioned. Would love to find a copy. I remember well some of the other songs - Street of Baltimore, Kaw-Liga, Crystal Chandaliers.

[simwrangler]

Now this is REAL country music. The crap they play on "country" radio these days is pure crap.

[BABSINUK]

Hi,used to dance to this about 50 years ago,to a group called the Redhills Skiffle Group,down Willeys social club in Exeter.

That must have been one of my early taste of country.

Another song they sung,delving deep into the grey matter,not heard since,started with,the train that I ride is 21 coaches long,

Thanks for the memories.

[weezadam]

this was also a big hit for the Beach Boys in 1970, in Europe however, not the U.S. Good harmonies on their version

[saraharcy01]

[stephen8164]

why does he say an a before every word

[cbvan]

@stephen8164

[JarrodSlater92]

@stephen8164 I dont think he really means to, your asking a question like why do i always blink when wind hits my eyes? lol, its the genuine flow of the music and the style he writes in. cant be to bad, sold over 40 million records

[rob80nikki]

[mikeh1159]

Pride STILL rocks.

[kd5hms63]

Wow! Nothing phony, flashy, or fake about this genuine REAL country song sung by Charlie Pride!! I like it, love it, and want some more of it!! As a real country boy that chopped real cotton in Pickens, Arkansas, I really can relate to this song!!

[kd5hms63]

Move over Brad, Taylor, and all the other so called Country singers....Listen up and let the master teach you a thing or two about what REAL COUNTRY music sounds like and is sung!!!

[Markkassel]

FOGERTY

[kd5hms63]

Take notes Taylor Swift...now THIS is what REAL Genuine Cotton Choppin, turn row dancin' foot tappin' Country Music really sounds like !!!

[pepperboots1]

@kd5hms63 I completely agree!! if someone hadnt coined the phrase "traditional country" country music would still be country!!

[JessieBunnieGirl]

@kd5hms63 musicsw different all round shes pop country charlies pure country dont dis what u dont understand

[kd5hms63]

@JessieBunnieGirl Yeah, two genres..two styles..two generations...but only ONE legend!

[19george73]

nothing beats charley at this! it suits him!

[dutchmuffin77]

i agree, it is better than the ccr version

[awnok]

Lloyd is fairly bouncing along on this one.

I love that `Panther Hall` album.

[crazycuntryboy2]

Pride rocked!

[Goatfishcheeseman2]

that was bad ass man good job.keep up the good job

[Zoobne2037]

Never knew Charlie could "get down" like this. Great alteration from an eternal CCR song. Better than the original!

[dog1701]

@Zoobne2037 My friend, this song is a whole heck of a lot older than CCR, if what you are saying is that the CCR version is the original.
