I saw Charlie Daniels live four times. He always put on a great show. First time was in the late 70's in Hartford CT with my dad, the girl across the street and her dad when he toured off of Million Mile Reflections which produced his #1 hit The Devil Went Down to Georgia.
The world of music will surely be different without him as he was a session guy for Marshal Tucker and others, had his own band, and mentored younger artists. Charlie's music was a wide ranging meadow from Southern Rock to Country to Bluegrass to Gospel.
Rest well sir, you were the best damn fiddle player anyone ever saw.
