Default R.I.P. Charlie Daniels

Absolutely one of my favorites throughout my lifetime. We met one of his support staff secretaries at the Paradise Family Pool. She said he was as nice as we thought he was and a Patriot. R.I.P. YouTube

I heard it a little earlier. RIP Charlie, you were a great musician and a true American.

Totally agree Nucky, Charlie was a favorite and great fiddle player/musician. Saw him live several times many many years ago. I guess the devil finally beat him in a fiddle contest and got his soul. FYI, Todd Fulcher, from the band He Said She Said, who used to play in the town squares, played guitar for the Charlie Daniels Band many years ago. RIP

My absolute favorite verse from Mr Daniels "Long Haired Country Boy"

"Preacher man talking on T.V.
Puttin' down the rock and roll
Wants me to send a donation
'Cause he's worried about my soul
He said Jesus walked on the water
And I know that it's true
But sometimes I think that preacherman
Would like to do a little walking too"

You had a way with words!!

Steve

You beat me to the punch. My favorite as well.

Someone else earlier mentioned the devil got his soul. I have no way to verify of course, but I don’t agree one iota. He was incredibly charitable.

I had the pleasure of meeting him once. We were making quilts for the troops in Iraq and he met with us to take one of our quilts to award to a soldier on his trip to veterans hospitals. And then he thanked US for meeting with him. He was just so humble and NICE. And a wonderful musician.

The Devil won’t be stealing his soul.

I am not a big country and music fan, but The Devil Went Down to Georgia is one of my favorite songs.

RIP Charlie
