From Me to You, Charley Pride's twelfth album, contains the number one hits "I Can't Believe That You've Stopped Loving Me" and "Wonder Could I Live There Anymore." The latter invokes rustic imagery while adopting an implicitly urban pose, but most of From Me to You is willfully anachronistic.
Everything on the album sounds like it could have come from the '60s, particularly "Sweet Promises," which could have been made ten years earlier.
The Cajun theme of "Piroque Joe" and faux Lefty Frizzell phraseology of "Today Is That Tomorrow" likewise make overt connections with country music's past.
Pride's nearly unique status as an African-American country artist may have spurred RCA to constantly reinforce his identity as a country singer with backward-looking repertoire, but the results are hard to fault.
