Little jealous isn't he... John was a terrific entertainer.

Charlie Rich was my mom's favorite

[@warrenburlingame1172]

I really miss him

[@JohnSmith-zw8vp]

Just about as shocking by today's standards at least was right before where host(?) Glen Campbell was smoking...during the show...at the main podium!

[@CountryMusicTimeMachine]

Yep. I saw that.

Charlie Rich wanted to be Johnny Cash...but he wasn't.

[@gilldavidmour4199]

But Charlie could really sing. Johnny..., not so much.

@gilldavidmour4199 True.
