Charley Pride to expand music career with writing
Charley Pride plans to broaden his career by writing music while continuing to perform. The former baseball player with six gold albums and 1971 entertainer of the year honors says he will focus on concise, entertaining songs rather than message tunes. He notes country music is merging with other genres and cites radio trends toward diverse playlists as evidence of broader appeal. Pride stresses he has no gimmicks, aims to project songs in the studio and on stage, and seeks to make people happy through his work.
