When Pride was fourteen, his mother purchased him his first guitar and he taught himself to play.[6] Though he loved music, i of Pride's lifelong dreams was to become a professional baseball histrion. In 1952, he pitched for the Memphis Blood-red Sox of the Negro American League. In 1953, he signed a contract with the Boise Yankees, the Class C farm team of the New York Yankees. During that season, an injury caused him to lose the "mustard" on his fastball, and he was sent to the Yankees' Class D team in Addicted du Lac, Wisconsin. Later that season, while in the Negro leagues with the Louisville Clippers, two players – Pride and Jesse Mitchell – were traded to the Birmingham Blackness Barons for a team autobus. "Jesse and I may accept the distinction of beingness the only players in history to exist traded for a used motor vehicle," Pride mused in his 1994 autobiography.[viii]

Pride pitched for several other minor league teams, his hopes of making information technology to the large leagues still alive, just was drafted into the United states of america Army in 1956. Later on basic training, he was stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado, where he was a quartermaster and played on the Fort's baseball team. That team won the "All Regular army" sports championship. When discharged in 1958, he rejoined the Memphis Red Sox.[9] He tried to return to baseball, though hindered by an injury to his throwing arm.[nine]

Pride played three games for the Missoula Timberjacks of the Pioneer League[10] (a farm club of the Cincinnati Reds) in 1960,[11] and had tryouts with the California Angels (1961) and the New York Mets (1962) organizations, only was not picked up by either team.[11]

When he was laid off past the Timberjacks, he moved to work structure in Helena, Montana, in 1960. He was recruited to pitch for the local semipro baseball squad, the East Helena Smelterites, and the team manager helped him go a chore at the local Asarco pb smelter.[10] The atomic number 82 smelter kept 18 jobs open specifically for baseball players, and arranged their shifts so they could play as a team.[11] Pride batted .444 his offset yr.[10]

Pride'due south singing ability soon came to the attention of the team manager, who besides paid him to sing for 15 minutes before each game, which increased attendance and earned Pride another $10 on top of the $x he earned for each game. He too played gigs in the local expanse, both solo and with a band called the Nighttime Hawks,[xi] and Asarco asked him to sing at visitor picnics.[10] His job at the smelter was dangerous and difficult; he one time bankrupt his talocrural joint. He routinely unloaded coal from railroad cars, shoveling it into a ii,400 °F furnace while keeping clear of slag, a task which oftentimes gave him burns. In a 2014 interview, Pride explained, "I would work at the smelter, work the swing shift and and then play music," said Pride. "I'd work xi–vii. Bulldoze. Play Friday. Punch in. Drive. Polson. Philipsburg."[6]

Between his smelter job and his music, he fabricated a good living in the Helena surface area. He moved his wife and son to join him and they lived in Helena until 1967, purchasing their first abode there, and with their children Dion and Angela being born at the local infirmary.[x] The Pride family moved to Great Falls, Montana, in 1967,[6] because Pride's music career was taking off and he required quicker access to an airport.[10] The family unit ultimately left Montana and moved to Texas in 1969.[xi] In a 1967 interview with the Helena Independent Record, his married woman Rozene Pride commented that the family encountered minor racism in Montana, citing an incident where they were refused service in a restaurant and another time when a realtor refused to bear witness them a domicile, only she felt that the family endured less racism than she saw leveled confronting local Native American people, whose handling she compared to that given to black people in the Due south.[eleven] Pride has generally spoken with fondness of the near-decade he spent there. "Montana is a very conservative state ... I stood out like a neon. Simply once they let you in, y'all become a Montanan. When the rumor was that I was leaving. They kept saying, 'we will let you in, you can't go out.'"[10]

On June 5, 2008, Pride and his brother Mack "The Knife" Pride and 28 other living erstwhile Negro league players were "drafted" by each of the 30 Major League Baseball game teams in a recognition of the on-field achievements and historical relevance of 30 mostly-forgotten Negro league stars. Pride was picked past the Texas Rangers, with whom he has had a long amalgamation, and the Colorado Rockies took his brother Mack.[12]

Rise to fame [edit]

While he was active in baseball, Pride had been encouraged to join the music concern by country stars such as Ruddy Sovine and Reddish Foley, and was working towards this career. In 1958, in Memphis, Pride visited Sun Studio and recorded some songs.[13]

In 1966, he released his first RCA Victor unmarried, "The Snakes Crawl at Dark".[ten] Nashville manager and agent Jack D. Johnson signed Pride. Atkins was the longtime producer at RCA Victor who had made stars out of country singers such equally Jim Reeves, Skeeter Davis, and others. Pride was signed to RCA Victor in 1965. "The Snakes Crawl at Night" did not nautical chart. On the records of this song submitted to radio stations for airplay, the singer was listed as "Country Charley Pride". Pride disputes that the omission of a photograph was deliberate; he stated that getting promoters to bring in a black country singer was a bigger trouble: "People didn't intendance if I was pink. RCA signed me ... they knew I was colored ... They decided to put the record out and let it speak for itself."[x] While living in Montana, he continued to sing at local clubs, and in Groovy Falls had an additional boost to his career when he befriended local man of affairs Louis Allen "Al" Donohue, who owned radio stations, including KMON, the beginning stations to play Pride'southward records in Montana.[10]

Not long afterwards, his tertiary single, "Just Between You and Me", was released. This song finally brought Pride success on the land charts. The vocal reached number 9 on Hot Country Songs on February 25, 1967.[xiv]

Co-ordinate to a news item by the Associated Press, Pride made this comment in a 1992 interview: "They used to enquire me how information technology feels to be the 'showtime colored country singer' ... And then it was 'first Negro country vocalizer;' then 'first black country vocalist.' Now I'm the 'starting time African-American land singer.' That'southward nigh the only thing that'due south inverse".[fifteen]

Since no biographical information had been included with those singles, few of the 10,000 country fans who came to the evidence knew Pride was black, and discovered the fact merely when he walked onto the phase, at which point the adulation trickled off to silence. "I knew I'd have to become it over with sooner or later," Pride later remembered. "I told the audience: 'Friends, I realize it'south a little unique, me coming out here — with a permanent suntan — to sing country and western to you. But that's the manner it is.' "[17]

The prove became the first of a long and active career playing to large audiences, his race before long becoming a minor item compared to his success. In 1967, he became the start black performer to appear at the Grand Ole Opry since founding member DeFord Bailey, who had last appeared in 1941.[xviii] Between 1969 and 1971, Pride had eight singles that reached number one on the US State Hit Parade and as well charted on the Billboard Hot 100: "All I Accept to Offer You (Is Me)", "(I'one thousand So) Agape of Losing You Once more", "I Tin can't Believe That You've Stopped Loving Me", "I'd Rather Love Y'all", "Is Anybody Goin' to San Antone", "Wonder Could I Live At that place Anymore", "I'chiliad Just Me", and "Kiss an Affections Practiced Mornin'".
