The Most Beautiful Girl - Charlie Rich | The Midnight Special

[@pocopico7409]

I’d give anything if America could be as sane and great as it was when this video was done in 1974. What a great time it was. And a return to people who are truly talented and great music wouldn’t be too bad either. Charlie Rich brought SO many people to country music back then. He helped make “country” cool. 😊

God bless Midnight Special and the people responsible for posting these videos.

I remember how my dad loved this song! ❤ I wish he was still here. I miss him and those days when we were growing up, and life was just so carefree. 🦋 Happy Wednesday... thank you for sharing! 💖

[@that70sgirl90]

@GerardFrenchy59 Thank you. There was always music in our house. We had family on my fathers side that was in bands. I listened to a lot of different kinds of music. I'm thankful to all of my family for instilling me respect for all music genres. 😊💖

Im from Houston. This song was playing in every country cafe or diner across Texas.....

[@Chilly_Billy]

I'm from Pittsburgh and it was playing everywhere on the radio. Great song.

[@derekbrockguitarist2559]

No matter what genre of music happens to be your favourite you just have to love this song. You can feel the heartbreak in his voice. Often wondered if it was about anyone in particular? Beautifully sad.

[@GratefulRob]

The 70s were wild. This guy was a pop sensation. Dude looks like a ready to retire shop teacher from Plano Texas.

[@vangoghny2k]

Yes, wild! Music was judged on its own merit. Crazy notion, I know.

[@barncat35]

A lot of country and crooner stars were trying to convert to pop music, with mixed success. Rich did pretty well.

[@AdrianDeVore]

These days, country music sounds more like pop music.😂

[@D-Fens_1632]

I think we're a different species of human than we were here.

[@karaDee2363]

Back when music was so great. Thank God it was recorded to be cherished❤

[@xaviercallobre6822]

I love this song. Charlie Rich was a great singer.

[@Dr_Paul_Proteus]

Wow, i haven't heard this song since i was six or seven years old, but i remember it perfectly.

[@lica0907]

I used to dance in my go go boots as a lil girl to this song, actually the entire album!

[@OspreyFlyer]

This song got a lot of radio play back in the day. I was a college freshman.

[@Wolfie66]

This takes me back to being 7 years old and staying up late to watch The Midnight Special. I always loved this song!

[@Kinglymarker8988]

I was 12. Had to make sure that the parents were asleep, before I would turn on the old B&W TV in my room. 12" screen. Played it real quiet and was always entertained.

[@LithaJones-td2jx]

I remember this song

[@alwayssearching1882]

If only we could bring it all back.

[@PatchworkAndNuance]

Classic✌🏼…some of those chicks in the crowd are mesmerized and transfixed 😂

[@eivindgjengstjohansen9625]

The young girls in the audience sure loved the silver fox

[@M_Lev___]

I guess the camera-person loved Charlie's back more than his front. 😄

This was before he placed his baby son in a spaceship, bound for planet Earth, before his own planet was to die
