Charley Pride's trailblazing life and career came to an end on Dec. 12, 2020, but his catalog of hit songs will live forever.

Pride notched 29 No. 1 hits during a distinguished 50-plus-year recording career. Here are 10 of his best and most well-known songs.

1:52 | “Is Anybody Goin to San Antone”
2:12 | “All I Have To Offer You (Is Me)”
2:32 | “I’m Just Me”
2:49 | “(I’m So) Afraid Of Losing You Again”
3:05 | “Kiss An Angel Good Mornin’”

Plus:
“Burgers and Fries,” “All His Children,” “Mississippi Cotton Picking Town”

His first three No. 1 songs make this list of the 10 Best Charley Pride Songs, but so do late-'70s and early '80s country hits like "Where Do I Put Her Memory." When you listen through the Mississippi-born singer's catalog, you find a man very willing to adapt. In the 1960s he was more of a traditional crooner with rhinestone cowboy leanings, but within 15 years he'd become a man who embraced pop music's influence on the genre.

Prior to Pride's first No. 1 in 1969, it had been 25 years since a Black country singer topped Billboard's Country Songs chart. For this reason, Darius Rucker and Jimmie Allen have been effusive about the 86-year-old's influence and generosity, but remembrances came pouring in from all corners of America on the day he died after battling COVID-19. Like Charlie Daniels and Kenny Rogers — two Country Music Hall of Famers who also died in 2020 — Pride is remembered for his music, his hit songs and for his kindness on and offstage.
