Remembering Charley Pride Industry and radio friends and colleagues share their remembrances of Country Music Hall of Famer Charley Pride, who passed over the weekend. • Cumulus’ Brian Philips: When I was PD at KPLX (The Wolf)/Dallas in 1999, I would see him at Las Colinas Golf Club, where he was a member and played all the time. I knew it was Charley, but I was shy. Eventually, I got up the courage to talk to him and tell him his records were some of the first country songs I heard and really appreciated. I also told him he was no friend to the DJ, as most of them were only two minutes long – he could have added one more chorus on the way out. He laughed because he’d heard that a lot from radio people. “Everyone made short

songs back then,” he said. “Country stations played 50 songs an hour!” He warmed to the conversation effortlessly, was generous with his time and looked me in the eye. I’m sure he suffered unbearable indignities in his life, but all that felt a million miles away by the time I met him. He was a man of his own creation, living the good life. There was an all-American aura about him – from his life story to the fact there was no show-biz shield, no driver. He had that square-jawed, squared-off athlete’s way about him – that 100,000 watt smile – and a

real bounce in his step as he walked away to his car. As he drove off I thought, “Well, that’s why he’s Charley Pride.” • Morris Higham’s Clint Higham: I didn’t know Charley, but I got to be around him and Ronnie Milsap in a dressing room during a CMA Awards show. Ronnie was talking about how Charley gave him his first opening spot on a tour – and Charley was hot as a match at the time. When the tour was over, Ronnie wanted to repay him in some way, but Charley told him, “You don’t owe me anything. Keep passing it on down to the other acts, son.” (continued on page 7)

KYGO’s McFayden: TRL To IRL As newly minted Bonneville KYGO/Denver morning co-host Brian McFayden (CAT 12/1) wrapped his first week, he put a temporary pause on moving logistics and exploring his new locale to tell Country Aircheck about returning to radio. Those in the age demo that rocked butterfly clips, bandanas, frosted tips and cargo pants might know him as an MTV VJ, the host of MTV’s

Chicagoals: WUSN/Chicago’s St. Jude radiothon brings in more than $764,000. Pictured (top, l-r) are the station’s Scotty Kay and St. Jude’s Jennifer Herrera; (middle, l-r) St. Jude’s Kristine Paca and the station’s Marci Braun; (bottom) the station’s Drew Walker.

Total Request Live (TRL), CBS’ Cupid and WB’s Beauty and the Geek. Despite those credentials and local and national television stops in Atlanta, Los Angeles and New York, his radio roots and love of country music run deep. In fact, when it comes to Brian McFayden, as the saying goes, “You think you know, but you have no idea.” Video Killed The Radio Star: After getting his start at Alternative KEGE/Minneapolis in the mid-’90s, McFayden made the move to New York at Rock WXRK before MTV came calling. But, he explains, “I was pretty certain I had lost the gig, because they asked me what kind of music I liked, and I said, ‘Country! My favorite is Randy Travis.’ When they looked confused, I randomly broke out into a chorus of ‘Diggin’ Up Bones’ as if that would help.” His singing may not have won over execs, but his personality, charm, on-air presence and high-school-homecoming-king good looks did. [Ed. Note: Having worn butterfly clips to prom, I can personally vouch.] A two-decades-long national television career ensued. “I met Tracy doing a call-in segment about MTV for her show a decade or so ago,” says McFayden. “We had an instant chemistry – so much so, my then-girlfriend got jealous!” That quick interaction led to a friendship rooted in a love of radio, sports, country music and the outdoors. “Tracy is one of my closest friends, and we’ve wanted to work together for years,” he says. The timing was never quite right, though ... until it was. “Tracy sent me a text a few months back that just said, ‘What about now?’ and I immediately knew what she meant,” he explains. But his hiring wasn’t a foregone conclusion. “Once [PD] Brian [Michel] heard us together, I think he got it,” quips McFayden. “Tracy is a pro, and all we have to do is outline topics, pot up the mics and be ourselves. This is the most fun I’ve ever had.” The co-hosts also plan to capitalize on McFayden’s on-camera experience to elevate the show’s online and social media presence and are looking forward to tag-teaming on multi-platform content moving forward. A Country Boy Can Survive: But, Country radio? Absolutely, says McFayden: “I have always loved the music and the format, so the ability to combine that with my friendship with Tracy and come back to my first passion of radio? Total no-brainer.” He recalls fondly working alongside his mother folding laundry as she listened to Patsy Cline records well before his own aforementioned love of Randy Travis took hold. Fortuitously, McFayden’s parents also lived in Colorado before he was born, giving him a sense of familial connection to the area. Having his adult son join him in his new home will close the circle on the family connection.

Prior to making the move to Denver – where he’s excited to take in live shows as soon as touring resumes – McFayden spent much of quarantine visiting family in Omaha, St. Louis and Minneapolis ... all strong Country radio markets. But, his focus remained on KYGO. “I’d stream Tracy’s show each morning and found myself getting more and more excited to work with her,” he says. “This music will always be my favorite, and there are some huge stars on Country radio right now. I want to turn up every song, go to every concert, and get to know these artists and the people in the business.” He also has a “beer bucket list” and hopes to raise a glass with Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Jake Owen and the guys in Old Dominion, among others. From folding laundry with Patsy Cline in the background to auditioning for MTV with an acapella rendition of a Randy Travis classic – to bantering with a longtime friend while spinning Morgan Wallen and Maren Morris – McFayden says he couldn’t have planned it better if he tried. “This is exactly where I want to be and what I want to be doing. As far as I’m concerned, this is where I’ll be forever. I’m not focusing on accolades or notoriety, but on doing a great show every day and having fun with my best friend.” He’s already earned his spot at the Dixon family dinner table; now he’s aiming for listener pre-sets in Denver and beyond. Stream the station here; welcome McFayden to the format here.

An inside look at how Big Loud’s Jake Owen is spending his Quaran-Time: I’ve actually been able to live more of a normal daily life. I’m never home for more than a few days at a time, and it feels pretty good to be able to sleep in my own bed and rock my little girl to sleep at night. I’ve tried to see the positive side of all of this. I finally got myself into a routine that isn’t touring. I’m a routine dad now. I have time to spend with Erica and focus on our family. Don’t get me wrong … I always focus on my family, but it’s a lot easier when you’re home every day. I’ve been working on a lot of home projects — building things and reading a lot more. I’ve been really creative … or at least had the urge to want to be. Sometimes it’s tough without the day-to-day travel and

people interactions that spawn creativity. Social media helped me stay connected to fans at first, then I believe the “live” interaction became a little overdone. Sometimes it’s nice to step back for a bit and come back with new material and surprises. Started bingeing with Ozark, then Breaking Bad and now I’m reading A Land Remembered for about the fifth time. My go-to quarantine snack is almonds. The silver lining in all of this is definitely more time with my family. More time to be present and make up for the time lost. My family has always supported my hopes and dreams, and it’s nice to be home and support them. I’ve watched my little girl learn to walk and now say “Daddy.” I’d say I’m pretty blessed.

• Former RCA/Nashville President and Pride’s producer Jerry Bradley: I had just started working at RCA in 1970 when I had dinner with Charley and his manager Jack Johnson. They told me Charley wanted to change producers from Jack Clement, and asked if I could take care of that, which was my job. I asked Charley what he wanted in a producer and he said he wanted to record with everyone in the same room and didn’t want to overdub. I had mixed Loretta Lynn, Jack Greene, Red Foley, the Osborne Brothers and others for my dad and had cut Nat Stuckey and a couple other artists on RCA. We discussed a few producers, but I told Charley I liked to record the same way he did, so why not try me? We did 10 or 11 albums together and had a great time doing it. He liked to stay up late. We used to end our sessions at 10pm, and he’d want to go down to Printers Alley and drink all night at Skull’s. So I kind of tricked him and started scheduling sessions from 6pm-1am so he’d be tired and want to go home instead of going out. Put the needle down on the record, and you’d know in five seconds it was Charley Pride. During that time, he sold as many records for RCA as Elvis. Charley was responsible for a lot of things in my life. I thought the world of him and Rozene. She called last Thursday night to tell me what was going on. It was a tough conversation. She said, “Jerry, watch out for that virus, it’s bad.” • SiriusXM’s Storme Warren: I first met him in 1991 or so at his theater in Branson, and I was a kid – scared to death. He

said, “You’re here for an interview? Let’s have a chat first.” Such a neat guy. A lot of people don’t know, but he was a numbers guy and loved gambling. I got to be on a couple of cruises with him, and he’d sit me down at the slot next to his and tell me theories for winning – and he was really good at it. He loved playing; he loved sharing his thoughts and telling stories. He loved having people come up to him to talk. Not an aloof guy at all. A cruise was actually the perfect stage for him, both for the actual stage and for the time he could spend being around the people. • Publisher Tom Collins: [Ed. Note: Collins was partners in Pi-Gem Music with former RCA President Jerry Bradley and Charley Pride in the ‘70s.] Charley was a very kind and loving person. I never heard him say an unkind word about anyone. He was the perfect person – the perfect personality – to be the first Black

country superstar. Given all he had to go through because of his race, another type of personality would not have made it. He was always positive, and the whole time I knew him, I never heard a negative word come from his mouth. Early on, whatever racial comments people would make would just roll off his back. If it hadn’t been Charley, with his personality, in that position, I don’t know if anyone could have accomplished what he did. • Former RCA promotion exec Tim McFadden: He was very intense about words. One I remember is how it annoyed him when people said “think” instead of “believe.” Someone would say, “I think that’s right.” He would reply, “No, you believe that’s right. There’s a big difference between those two words.” That wasn’t said in a demeaning way, it was just about finding the right usage. He cared about words and lyrics, and you could hear that in his music. • Former Sony/Nashville Chairman Joe Galante: [Ed. Note: Pride’s “Burgers And Fries” was the first No. 1 worked by Galante when he headed RCA promotion in the late ‘70s.] Charley was in town recording, so [VP/Marketing] Dave Wheeler and I took him to lunch. Now, I grew up in New York City and hadn’t really experienced much of the south in the ‘60s and ‘70s, so I asked Charley what it was like being in the business at that time. Around 1970, he’d just had his third No. 1 and was headed from Nashville to Mississippi for a meeting. At some point, he and wife Rozene pulled over to use the restroom. He went into the store and there were no signs, but as he was about to enter one, the clerk said, “Where the fuck are you going?” Charley told him who he was, and the guy said, “I don’t care who the fuck you are, you’re

not going to use this restroom.” Charley told us a number of similar stories that had a huge impact on me. I was in my twenties, and it was the first time in my life I knew someone who had gone through that. I had no idea what he had endured and that he continued to be treated that way even though he had become a star. Fast forward to 2008 when Alison Krauss, Brad Paisley and Charley were invited to play for President Obama shortly after his election. Onstage, Charley was choked-up beyond belief. He looked at the President and First Lady and said to them, “I never thought that in my lifetime I would ever see this day.” After the performance, President Obama hugged Charley. It was emotional. From being a “colored” man who could not use the store restroom to being embraced by a Black man who was President of the United States and calling Charley “an inspiration” – it was an incredible moment. • Producer Byron Gallimore: Fan Fair comes to mind – just how good he was in talking to every fan he could and taking the time to ask them a question about themselves. He loved going to visit the Odessa Chuck Wagon Gang every year, and they’d be waiting with big

plates of BBQ for us. I worked for him for 12 years – most of them running his publishing company Pride Music Group. He was more than a friend to me. I looked up to him and don’t think I would have been able to have the success I’ve had without him. I don’t feel like I lost a friend; I feel like we all lost a friend.
