He lived to a ripe old age. What a life! He made us laugh.
Funniest ever Dick Van Dyke scene. Mary's Apology:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/ente...harlie-daniels-country-music-dies/5384332002/Charlie Daniels, a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame best known for "The Devil Went Down to Georgia," died Monday morning after suffering a hemorrhagic stroke. He was 83.
Daniels' death was confirmed by his publicist, Don Murry Grubbs, to The Tennessean, part of the USA TODAY Network. He is survived by his wife, Hazel, and son Charlie Daniels, Jr.
By the time the Charlie Daniels Band topped the charts with “Devil” in 1979, the instrumentalist, singer and songwriter had long established a remarkable, multifaceted career in Music City. As a session musician, he played on three of Bob Dylan’s albums — including the revolutionary “Nashville Skyline” — as well as recordings for Ringo Starr, Leonard Cohen, Tammy Wynette and other luminaries.
It seems to me that having a band of demons join in would be a disqualifying act in a fiddlin' contest.
Saddened.
My first concert was Charlie Daniels and ZZ Top.
Correct... I'll always remember that since I forgot one time. I think that's been used by many since then.Leave the sun visors down? That is what they did at a local water park.
Wha -- Satan's role in musical virtuosity is an American legend.
I missed him at Gilley's back in the 70's and have always regretted that. Gilley's was a heck of a beer joint.
Quiz:
When you parked in Gilley's parking lot back in the 70's, they would automatically slap a "Gilley's" bumper sticker on your truck while you were in the club. However, there was a way to "flag" them not put a sticker on your truck. Any "locals" know the answer or just want to take a guess?
