Pride of America is the nineteenth studio album by American country music singer Charley Pride. [4] [5] It was released in 1974 on RCA Records. [2]
The album peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. [6]
The album was recorded at RCA's "Nashville Sound" Studios, Nashville, Tennessee. The vocal accompaniment was by the Jordanaires and the Nashville Edition.
In a retrospective article, Rolling Stone included " Mississippi Cotton Picking Delta Town" on a list of Pride's 10 "essential" songs, writing that "Pride’s delivery perfectly splits the difference between a tender evocation of home and a stark memory of a world he was happy to have left behind." [4]
