Man he sure loved Ronnie Van Zant. God bless them both. Kings of dixieland
One of my fellow retired police officers and good friend owned a horse ranch in Norco Calif, He was also involved with the Rodeo. One day he was late for work back in the late 90's. Joking I said did you sleep in today? He said naa, I had to get my horse ready for Charlie. I asked who's Charlie? He said Charlie Daniels, he's in town for a concert. I don't really tell folks but we're friends and when he comes into town he stops by. He wanted to take a morning horse ride today to relax so I got my horse ready for him.......RIP Charlie.
Charlie became the voice of the common man in music. He's more than earned his reward. Well done, Charlie.

Lay off the soy.
This interview really hits home today. I have met and talked with Charlie over the last 30+ years, first meeting him when I was a teenager. Every time, no exceptions, when I would meet him he would always ask "how ya doin' son?". I'll never forget Charlie, everyone who worked with him will tell you he was the best guy in music. RIP Charlie Daniels.
Lifetimes later and Charlie is still haunted by and tearful over the deaths in the Lynyrd Skynyrd band. And now we get to shed yet more tears. Another sad farewell. Thanks again Joe for getting this history down for us.
Ronnie met Charlie at the gate 😞
Well said. I steered towards Lynyrd Skynyrd after hearing Charlie Daniels for sure. Pure Southern rock Charlie was.
Yes. Priceless interview
One by one our heroes are leaving us! Very sad!
Charlie was such a kind , gentle soul - a true blue Cowboy guitar picker - an all around musician - an inspiration - a great singer and legendary songwriter - a true wordsmith
You can see in his eyes how much the Skynyrd crash affected him. Job well done Charlie, rest in peace!
The Era of these musicians was so treasured. Saw CDB many times,as well as Skynyrd. Met the band in Davie,Fl after the plane crash. They were in WSHE radio station. Were making the Rossington/Collins Band. Still have pictures from that time.
I had no idea how down to earth and well spoken he was. Very nice interview Joe. Thank you!
May Charlie Rest In Peace.
Thanks Stu... Joe
How could anyone have hit "thumbs down" on this?...Bless you Charlie...Thanks for the music sir...Fly on proud bird!
Charles Edward Daniels (October 28, 1936 - July 6, 2020) R.I.P.
How many Charlie fans are familiar with his Christian albums, The Door and Steel Witness? I saw Charlie a few years ago at a Franklin Graham Crusade in Pittsburgh, PA. Loved that show, he was as energetic as ever. Also saw Charlie at the Ten Years after Lynyrd Skynyrd tour at Pittsburgh's Civic Arena. You just go and lay your hand on a Pittsburgh Steelers fan and I think you're gonna finally understand! Favorite Charlie song is called 'Protected by Prayer' off of The Door album! See you in The New Jerusalem Charlie! Say Hi to Ronnie and Billy and the rest of the Skynyrd bunch up there for me!
The long haired country boy has been laid to rest. A musicians musician. RIP.
Right wing nut case.
@@maclynmonroe1263 at least he was what he was, what the f are u. I'm sure people of your type would leave something derogatory either way.
He laid that persona to rest forty years ago, even if he still sang the song.
@@maclynmonroe1263 Why are you even here?! Just to leave a left wing nutty comment? You left wing nut case!
@@maclynmonroe1263 u r a TRUE representation of the left. crass, ignorant, rude, ignorant, intolerant, ignorant, unteachable, IGNORANT, ...
My relationship and being a Charlie Daniels fan began on October 20th 1977, I was at the Charlie Daniels Grinderswitch show at Kiel Opera House , the night of the Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crash. I was 15 and been ever since. I relocated to Tennessee 20 yrs ago & actually only live about 3 1/2 miles from Charlie's place. Gonna be one helluva jam session up yonder !!! RIP Charlie .
There are some comments in here where people say they didn’t like Charlie Daniels’ politics. Charlie was a fine man. A “long haired country boy” American.
Charlie loved America and I do too. I believe that fact alone... loving America... is the very BEST politics!
🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
Roger Dodger He was a proud American ‘birther.’ Great musician. Loved his music but....

Charlie was very intelligent, not from book learning but life experience and his politics were the same. He was up on the issues of the day and looked at both sides before making a decision. I think he liked people over politics. He'd been around enough good AND bad people to recognize bullshit when he saw and heard it. He was proud of working for a living. He was a businessman too, employing a few dozen people in his band, crews and ranch. His was an important voice in life and in music.
Charlie was an intelligent man.
His politics changed from when he was a young man writing Uneasy Rider to later in his career. Like most people,.. as he matured and became more experienced in life, he became more Conservative. Some people just never grow up,.. and end up embracing the far-Left their entire lives.
Fire On The Mountain was one of the first records I remember buying myself at about 8 in 76’. My brother had it on 8 Track, and I studied that record endlessly. It’s still my favorite CDB album to this day.
It was my second record, bought it just a month or so ago.
8 track , those were the days
RIP Mr Charlie Daniels
I remember as a kid listening to "Long haired country boy" back in Guyana ( south America)
And I was immediately hooked.
Then hearing " the devil went down to Geogia" and I was in awe. That's over 40 years ago.
He's been one of my favorites ever since.
The
A true patriot and a man unashamed of his relationship with his creator. The golden fiddle awaits.
Amen Brother Kessel! “Today I will see you in paradise”
he became a trump supporter and believed fox news not very patriotic
lmao
@@brianralph5036 idiotic comment
Based on what exactly? I loved the CDB when I was a teenager, but if you are implying that CD was a "true patriot" because he supported that orange pos, then you are sadly mistaken.
Had the privilege of meeting him years ago when he was playing in a bar. Sat down and had a beer with him. Talked about music with him. Great down to earth guy.
If you grew up in Florida in the early 70’s, you damn sure knew who Charlie Daniels was. The weed references in Uneasy Rider and Long Haired Country Boy were pretty humorous, memorable and unique for the time in his genre of music. As a Skynyrd fan, I appreciate him standing up for Artimus. Coming from a family of Veterans, I respect CD for his feelings about the flag. These musicians were a big part of living in the South for me and CD and the CDB were the shit in their day. 🎸
A great man. Toy truly was a unique guitarist as ronnie was a singer..charlie had tears remembering ronnies death. Charlies a .remarkable artist that will be remembered like duane toy and ronnie. They are jamming at this moment
A kind and sensitive man who was not ashamed of his Christian beliefs! God Bless! 😢❤😇
Charlie paid his respects to Ronnie in the song Reflections and it sounded as though he cried then as well.
Charlie was such a great man. He almost seems Biblical to me and I will miss him so much. What a great musician and singer.
You can see the wave of emotion that came over Charlie still to that day when speaking about the passing of Huey, and the Skynyrd tragedy. I always wanted to meet this man but I'll be happy listening to his recordings just the same. He's speaking to me through them. Rest in Peace Charlie.
Hey
The World is a little more silent without Charlie, Rest In Peace.
I’ve been a Charlie Daniels Band fan since I found my Dad’s copy of the album Night Rider. You can hear how much of an influence the Allman Brothers had on their music on tracks like Birmingham Blues. Amazing guitar playing but all round a kick ass band. I remember searching through the local Boscovs department store discount cassette bins and finding albums like Fire on the Mountain. Listen to all those early albums, pure Americana goodness. RIP Charlie!
Nightrider was always my favorite album of his. Love me some Franklin Limestone. Slow ballad where Tommy and the boys kick it the last 60 seconds. Also.... Desperately love the Geico commercial he did where he took the violin away from the guy and turned it into a fiddle. Parting words.. "that's how you do it son". 💔
Boscovs…reminds me of going to seem my grandparents in Pennsylvania……from North Carolina
A fine human being. RIP Charlie Daniels.
RIP, Charlie. I'll never forget you, your music, and your tremendous legacy. You made the world a better place by being here.
What we need are more people like Charlie Daniels in this world. What a gentleman and down to earth human being. I ALWAYS enjoyed listening to his music and his interviews. I will Truly miss him and his music . I was VERY fortunate to see him in Pennsylvania , what a great show. One of my all-time favorite concerts !!!!!!
Very sad to hear Chariles gone.. met him 25 yrs ago at an industry party. Was such a nice guy. Very down to earth and was actually interested in what you had to say, Great musician, songwriter and one of the nicest guys you could meet!
For some reason I just can't picture Charlie Daniels turning old. Listening to his music all my life, he will always be a young and a youthful singer full of energy and stamina.
R.I.P. my friend. You will always be remembered.
J Polar ,he wasn’t old. I saw him 2 years ago (he was 81 at the time) and he was still putting on shows like he did years ago. Shoot, he was getting around better than me and I was 48 at the time.
Charlies brother Tom passed just a couple weeks ago here in Espanola, NM. He was a friend for many years and will be missed here. Going to break out my Charlie Daniels vinyl and and have a sip of shine. Great channel! new subscriber.
One by one, the musicians that formed a large part of my youth are leaving, and now Charlie. I had the pleasure of meeting Charlie a few years back in Austin, TX. When I told him that I've been a fan of his since the 70's, he smiled, shook my hand, and let me know how much he appreciated hearing that. Real humble, down to earth guy. His rendition of Amazing Grace that evening brought my buddy to tears. RIP, Charlie...your music will live on. Long live the CDB.
What a special human being, Charlie was. Heard him speak at UNCW commencement once and thought he was the best speaker that I had ever heard. Hard to lose such talented people like this. RIP.
I got the privilege to see Charlie play on number occasions,he always impressed the hell out me,always enjoyed his playing, Rest In Peace brother,your music lives on.
Charlie was one of the good guys. When "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" and Hank Jr`s "Country Boy Can Survive" came out they played them both on our Rock stations. I remember jamming to them in my mom`s car when I was about age 12 or 13 when these songs first came out. They were something we`d never heard before and had a "WOW" factor and everybody I knew loved them. Charlie and Hank Jr got me interested in Country music. Thank you for the music Charlie Daniels....
Another priceless Gem! Charlie really opens up in this interview and Charlie lay back with his glasses off ! Joe Chambers you do a great job of getting musician's to open up about life of music! Charlie Daniels was The God Father of Southern Country of blue Grass, Rock of the spiritual Roads mixed together! A Great Simple Man!
Thanks Pat..... Joe
RIP Charlie. He was very influential for me as a budding musician. I always liked his brand of country especially in the earlier songs.
Another musical Icon gone..... God Bless You Charlie Daniels!
Depressing..... now I hafta wait to jam with you! 🥰
I should have said this a long time ago one of the number one best fiddle players of all time for rock music definitely for country music God Rest your soul Charlie Daniels
Joe this one is priceless. Especially now that he's gone.
I'm so glad you interviewed all these people and we get to see a side of the artists we didn't know.
Thanks a lot! 🙏
Thank you Roger......... Joe
Still hard to believe he's gone. My dad toured with Charlie back in the day. I lost him in May. It's been a hard year, but watching this brings back so many memories. Thanks!
Thank you Paul..... Joe
We used to play Saddle Tramp and other CD songs...he was great in concert, too. A fine American and big part of my youth.
I will miss Charlie Daniels, I saw the CDB "live" in 1977, great concert. May he RIP.
I was 17 back in 1979 and remembering the big hit that year, The Devil Went Down To Georgia!
And in 1984 I had the pleasure to see the Charlie Daniels Band in concert at Jones Beach Long Island, NY.
Met Charlie in Charlotte one time backstage with Marshall Tucker and he was a powerful presence but treated the stage crew like family members , I got to shake his hand and I’ll never forget that handshake , looked me dead in the eyes as he was shaking my hand and from that day forward I started respecting any and everybody, the world lost a gentle giant soul when Charlie passed ….RIP my friend 🎸 🎶 🙏🏻
RIP Charlie Daniels. I always enjoyed your music and your kind personality, you always showed respect to people and treated them with decency. Joe, you do such a good job at interviewing people. You always have interesting people with interesting content. Thank you for making the internet a better place to seek out information and entertainment. Stay safe.
Thanks Von... Joe
Thank Mr Daniels for your music and your love of the country . RIP
Many of Charlie’s songs were anthems of my life! A true God loving Patriot and Poet! Now my 6 yr granddaughter is a CDB fan and cried when I told her about his passing, then she looked at me, she wiped a tear off my cheek and said, “Don’t Cry Papa, he’s just playin for Jesus now!”
God, I love that child! The wisdom of a babe. Little did she know, the tear on my check was for how SHE looked at me and what she said and the sadness that she doesn’t have anyone of the younger generation of country music that can compare to Charlie. And for the fear I have for her and the troubles the country is having! Not ONE newer generation country music “star” has the sand to speak up and speak out against what is happening, like Charlie did! Instead we have them CHANGING THEIR BAND NAMES, etc!! Sad. We lost Charlie Daniels and now have SJWs and “Taylor Swifts”...
Love the cutaways to pictures of other artists, albums, and studios as the guest makes reference to them. Adds a fresh touch to the interview. Well done Joe!
Thanks Mike..... Joe
daniels bought our band two 12 paks of brew in 71 thanks dude---fantastik!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
24 hrs at a time live , charlie boy, you still tear it up for me on my long hauls. Your fiddle, georges flute and and Toys synchronization. Makes my soul shake.
Beautifully put !!!!
Thank you for this, Charlie looked great here. Seems he was a fan of rock and pop as well. I hope he had good health and a good life till the end. RIP
First Comment!!
Joe Chambers, you are a little bit of alright Your interviews are top notch. 🏆🥇 ( Your interview with Billy Cox was spectacular).
I’m sorry about Charlie Daniels passing. It’s late here in sweet home Chicago 12:30 am, but I’ll watch this tomorrow 👍.
Thanks John....... Joe
What an insightful interview with a musician, Charlie Daniels, I've just discovered... because he's passed on. Darn. Capricorn in Macon, Georgia. My oh my. Southern Child. Joe, your interviews are above and beyond good. So are the folks you interview! Thanks so much. Lili Kiki / Linda from coming out of lockdown in France.
Thank you Linda.... Best.............. Joe
Rest In Peace Charlie! You were one of kind.
I was lucky enough to have seen him many times over the years and got to meet him twice
The thing about Charlie Daniels was that when you saw him tour, even lately, there was soo many young people there just to hear him play... Great musician, person, and all-around American... You will be missed, sir. One by one all of the greats are moving on... Very sad for country music.
Terrific interview Joe! Charlie was an original, I don’t know how I missed this one, but I’m glad I watched! Thanks for sharing!💫
"It was October, in St. Louis town,
When we heard that the Free Bird,
Fell to the ground.
We all said a prayer, before we went down,
To play.
And Ronnie, my buddy,
Above all the rest.
I miss you the most, and I loved you the best.
And now that you're gone,
I thank God I was blessed,
Just to know you. . ."
~Charlie Daniels
Reflections
Thank You Charlie for a lifetime of just Southern Kick ass music.
We have lost yet another legend of music today, very sad. Just how Charlie became so emotional talking about friends that he lost, I felt the same way when I found out that he passed on yesterday. RIP Charlie Daniels & thanks for the music. You will be sorely missed.
Joe, Thanks so much for posting this. A few hours ago, I returned from a four hour drive to attend Charlie’s funderal in Murfreesboro and watching this interview is how I’m capping a long, emotional day.
When you asked about Capricorn Records and Macon, my ears perked up.
During the summer of 1977, I was in between semesters at college, working at a rock station in town, and living in a boarding house in Macon.
On the first floor at the Butler House was a great meat ‘n 3 restaurant and as I left my room and was walking down a long staircase, I heard a voice say,”Best iced tea in Macon”. I looked down to see the hat that adorns the cover of Saddle Tramp stop Charlie’s head as he and the band made their way through the cafeteria-style line. Just as he stated, Macon had some great food and the band frequently ended up there, just a four block drive up from the Capricorn studios.
Macon definitely left its’ imprint on the band and a walk behind a simple, clean Mom ‘n Pop road court (led by the owner) brought me to the spot where the photo was created for the inside of the “Nightrider” album.
Charlie graciously asked me to join the band for lunch a couple of other times and sat for an interview that I turned into a written article for the college paper, then used the audio for a segment during one of my shifts at the radio station.
I was only 19 and green, but Charlie made me feel as if he were sitting for an interview at a major market station. And in the ensuing years-when I would happen to run into him somewhere along the way-he would smile and say,”Best iced tea in Macon.
It’s been a day for remembering.
Hi Rise... I live in Murfreesboro about a mile from Charles service today... My wife attended. I’m from Columbus, Ga. My band played in Macon at the Big Banana in the mid 70’s. There was a little meat and three next to the club we ate at most every day. GREAT FOOD.. It was called Mama something ??? I can’t remember but all they talked about was Charlie who ate there all the time too. Thanks for watching... glad you had a safe trip today... All the best, Joe
Jan 2, 1978 skynard concert.. my 18th birthday..hearing freebird for the 1st time with my big brother home from army...life...it's been truly good.
I saw CDB in 1980, not long after Devil was released. Went into the concert a rock snob and left wanting to be a "Long Haired Country Boy". An amazing show I still remember today. RIP Charlie you had an amazing life....
Loved this man and his music. RIP Charlie Daniels.
Thank you for doing this. Great artist, great man, great stories. RIP.
One of the all time greats. RIP Mr Charlie Daniels
So great to watch this again. My first memory of Charlie Daniels and CDB was when I was in high school (1971) and was a valet for a restaurant. I jumped in a Mercedes to park it and turned the radio on. Uneasy Rider was playing, cranked it up to 11 and I listened to the end. I was beside myself. I am so glad I saw Charlie perform a few years ago. What a great man, musician and gentleman. Thanks, Joe!
Ah man , my heart hurts . God Bless America
When he started talking about Skynyrd and saw him break a tear... i began to do the same
Talking about RVZ hurt him. God Bless you CD. You will be missed.
A Candle-
Both ends burnin'.
An endless mile -
A bus wheel turnin'.
A Friend to share a lonesome time.
A handshake and a sip of wine.
Say it Loud and let it ring,
That we're all part of Everything.
The Future, Present and the Past.
Fly on proud bird,
You're Free At Last.
Love the man and his music. I could listen to Charlie talk all day
Wonderful tribute, such a warm, friendly, expressive man. I am having a very busy work week, but I caught the headline that Mr. Daniels passed away and I said an immediate prayer for his soul, thanksgiving for his life, and God's care of his family, friends and fans. I still listen to his records from the 1970s on a regular basis. I found one thing we have in common, favorite song Layla, and inspiration from Duane Allman.
RIP Charlie. The world is a lesser place without you.
Can you just imagine the receiving line at the Pearly Gates?
He will be missed. A great entertainer a great patriot and God fearing man. Growing up in the south I was raised on his music Love you always Charlie!!
I love listening to anyone talk about skynyrd. R.I.P to Charlie and the guys.
Love Charlie Daniels. He will be missed. Thanks for sharing this interview.
GREAT interview! Love this series. Can you imagine recording with Dylan and George?
Thanks Sy.... Joe
I love Charlie, I could sing ever word to long haired country boy when I was 5, I was a country boy, I could relate
I consider him a influential parts of growing up loving America so much, he will always be in my heart and on my mind
That's gold right there, Joe. I listened to the Fire on the Mountain LP (and 8 track) so much when I was a kid, and I just assumed everyone else did too. I met some music guys years later that really only knew the CBD radio singles and it was disappointing to me that they didn't know the diversity of style that CDB had. I thought everyone knew Caballo Diablo and New York City King Size Rosewood Bed, LOL.
Charlie Daniels music was always some of my favorite when I was younger and it still is today!
I met him in the late 70’s. He was walking out of an elevator at WLIR radio station in Long Island. My sister worked in a law office in the same building, She knew I liked him, so me and my friend drove over there. He talked to us. For two to three minutes. He was soooo nice! Will never forget that.
Charlie had a great " speaking voice" . Maybe the best ever. RIP to a true blue person.💜💚
Through the years my wife and I have been blessed to have seen Charlie many times. We were lucky enough to see him not long before his passing at small venue in Hiawassee Georgia he had not missed a beat and sounded just as good as he did in 1978. Charlie my buddy above all the rest we will miss you the most and loved you the best.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Stephen.. Merry Christmas to you and family...Joe
Joe it's always a Pleasure reading, listening to History from these Videos of American Treasures...thanks again Mary and jd 52yrs together with all these Sweet Memories ❤ Great Post !
I saw him many times on long island growing up in the 70s always great energy and great a show.He could make that fiddle sing so sweet or tear it up.Loved his live performance with Marshall Tucker band doing 24 hours at a time.Nothing better than that...RIP Charlie.
I had the honor of meeting him over 35 yrs. ago in Rochester,NY. A real gentleman! RIP Charlie.
Bought "Full Moon" when it came out. I played "Legend Of "Wooley Swamp " over and over. So glad I saw Charlie at the Vermont state fair. Rest In peace,country boy.❤🇺🇸❤
your interview technique is exactly what is needed on RUclips. You leave it to the artist by asking just enough to get them talking. This episode was very poignant , Charlie's humble demeanor was on full display. God rest his immortal soul
Thank you for this interview, Joe. I worked on the CDB road crew for a couple of years after I got out of Belmont. Charlie gave me the advice to quit that job and get some auditions, and I toured on bass with Holly Dunn for 4 years as well as other lesser stars. I even worked for you at the music store doing some repairs and set-ups in the mid 80's. I love your series. I can't believe Charlie has left us - I have been sad since I heard the news. Great interview with a great man.
(My real name is Rex Garner.)
Hi Rex... thanks for sharing your comments (and working in the guitar shop) Best.... Joe
Thank you so much Joe. I'm a hobby guitarist for fun and open mics and the love of music. I wanted to ask Charlie about the South and I think he answered my questions in earlier interviews. I'm content that Charlie was a good caring kind of guy. The music! Wow! If I'm not busy practicing cover tunes I love seeing these documentaries. I share these with my music appreciation class too. Thank you Joe. Hats off to Charlie!!!
That’s great to hear Frank!( my Dad’s and my middle name) This would make Charlie very happy to know I’m sure..... Joe
The world is a little less brighter losing Charlie. My dad really liked him and my best friend and I picked it up from my dad. Ole CDB GODSPEED Charlie!
He didn’t read music. Self taught. I loved his style. Old-fashioned American.
I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to see Charlie and his in I think it was 1985 in Lake Tahoe Nevada. I'll never forget it. So sad to know his is gone form the earth, but I'll see you there when my time comes, Charlie. My condolences to his wife Hazel and the rest of his family.
Hello Joe,
Wow, how interesting! Hand him an instrument made of wood with strings and he'll figure out how to play it. I was waiting for him to say he played the zither in "The Third Man"... he didn't, but that was just one that passed him bye.
My eyes REALLY went wide when he was talking "All Things Must Pass" . I realised connections: George to Charlie (slide guitar for Bob?... says Pete Drake); Charlie calls Pete, who joins George; Pete plays Steel using a pedal; Peter Frampton sees Pete's Talkbox pedal(he invented 1959)... creates the biggest live rock album in history. Thanks, Charlie! God bless!
Be well, folks!
As a Maconite thanks for the kind words!
God love Charlie Daniels ..Im sure he does as do all of us . Charlie and his music have been with me since I was a kid and later his faith inspired me me even more . God has blessed all of us through Charlies life and the example he set for all of us ..Well done thy good and faithful servant .
Loved him with Roy Buchanan.
Roy! One of the greats
Great interview, Charley Daniel is so interesting to listen to, he's a story teller. That's what country is all about:)🎙🎵☮️🎼🎸
RIP Charlie, i ran monitors for him and his band many times. It was always a good experience. I almost went to work for them when their house engineer broke his wrist. I also worked as a stage manger for the venue running stage changes at festivals quite a few times over the years. I know his whole team are hurting and rightfully so. I feel for all of them. They were a big family. Prayers to them all. that was a sad day for me. I also lost another good friend that day that was a great drummer with a golden voice.
Do you remember Cat fish hodge?
Interview right on time. The older these musicians get, the more losses they have to endure. Tough life to live.
Charlie was one of the finest men iv ever met. He was a great soul. RIP brother.
Thank you Charlie......... I know you are Home now !
