@Cerberus, Charlie wasn't always this way; he had an integrated band in the 70s, sang about not wanting to get beat up for having long hair and a peace sign on his car and taking another toke, and once berated an audience for yelling racial slurs at a black comedian. By 1988, however, a new version of Uneasy Rider had him and his good ole boys beating up gays in a bar. He was also a cheerleader for invading Iraq.

I grew up going to Charlie Daniels day in the 80's. He even did a free concert at my junior high school. I got to get out of class and help clean up after the show and I sat and talked to him once for about 15 min. He was very cool and very nice. I think i was 14. At Charlie Daniels day they would bring the Skoal race car and show it off and they gave away free cans of Skoal and the new Skoal Bandit in a pouch. All of us was walking around with our mouths packed full of dip. Some of the best times of my life. Charlie was and is an American treasure. Sad to hear of his passing.

Saw Charlie At Fork of the River in 96 Rock the Smokies Concert. The show was put on by Skoal and tickets were free if you sent in a card to skoal. It was CDB, Marshall Tucker B, 38 Special, Marty Stewart, Travis Tritt, and Hank jr... Show was great till Jr came out drunk as a skunk. Met Harry Gant there too! Talked to Harry for a half hour. I was lucky saw Charlie perform 4 or 5 times. RIP Charles E Daniels.

If you ever saw Charlie on a Saturday night,you didn’t have to go to church on Sunday.You’d already been there.

I read a crap load of western novels when i was a teenager and a young man. Mostly Louis Lamore and Zane Grey. I could burn one up a night sometimes. the 80's were the best music ever for rock, country and country rock and it introduced other genres. RIP charlie. i worked in the country music business for 30 years and with Charlie and his crew many times as an audio engineer. Always a good day. Never a bad one. Yesterday was a sad day.

I saw him when I was 4yrs old and he gave me his hat at the end of the show. Based on the pictures, I would agree when my mom said he was an amazing and kind man

I've seen Charlie in concert so many times and have never been disappointed. Charlie and Marshall Tucker played an outdoor concert at Augusta Expoland in Fishersville Va. in the 80's. The neighbors from a distance complained about the noise and they have never had an outdoor concert since.

First time I saw Charlie play was in the 80s in Murfreesboro TN. He opened for Alabama. It was a snowy evening and he drove down from his home in Mt. Juliet to play. The show was a little late getting started and Charlie apologized and said he stopped to help a few people who had slid of the road into a ditch. That's just the kind of man he was. The show can wait when people need a hand.

What an incredible treasure I found tonight. Dang I love music so much. This is another internet discovery I get to revel in having never seen this before. It is a moment captured in time to me how extraordinary the song he plays live like Picasso. Beautiful voice and guitar play. Representing smart and talented as any one person could be the great Charlie Daniels. We are not worthy lol. It's just an unbelievable beautiful performance sound and stage presence. To do that on a late night talk show and show out like he did It's just unbelievable how good this is. One of a kind honestly

Charlie was a awesome man inside & out! Great character.

We love you Sir. I'll see you soon and sit next to Jesus and listen to you play

No autotune needed!!! That is talent. The very small imperfections make it all the better.

Thank you for this. When I was a kid I worked the night shift in the Nashville airport parking lot. As I remember Charley drove a white Bronco. He'd usually show up after all the other planes and people had left. He'd pull up to my little booth turn the Bronco off and say, "how you doing partner". A small thing maybe but it meant the world to me. Such a classy, humble guy.

My gosh. What a song. Was out at sea in the Navy then when this was aired. only heard it now, all these years later. Was always a CDB fan, didn't know this existed.

He was so awesome.. 😭😭 My dad always shaped his cowboy hats just like that back in the day 🥰

To whomever posted this, you've done more for me than you will ever know. Sincerely, Sandy 😘❤️🤠 They thought he was going to be hokey and silly and slow minded. I guess Letterman didn't just meet the singer, he and the audience just met their 1st Cowboy 🤠❤️😘 and he hypnotized everyone. I saw Charlie 6 times. One time at an old run down bar everybody dancing on the floor. I was right up front when the very 1st time I watched him play "Devil went down to Georgia". He broke every bow on that fiddle. His sweat hit me may as well been Holy Water to a woman like me. 🤠🐎❤️ He lived a great life. He gainfully employed 40 people for 40 years that doesn't make me miss him every single day he went home. See you soon Cowboy. I loved you before I was born.

Charlie Daniels contributed so much to American Music. A true patriot and legend. Please keep posting these beautiful performances.

Man, what an effortless performance. He was great!

The next day I'd get on a bus and be taken to my barracks, to start my 1st day of Army basic training. I've listened to Mr Daniels for many years. Thanks Charlie for all the great music you have made. Go easy Brother.

This tore me up. Please watch after him Jesus...

Letterman's first dip. Priceless HaHaHa. I never met anyone more cool than Charlie. When my friends and I were in high school we signed up to do wild steer racing at The Charlie Daniels Twin Pines Ranch Ropeoff in Murfreesboro TN. When we went up to get our numbers Charlie asked us where our parental consent forms were. We told him we had not been informed we needed them. He handed us forms and one of our crew started to say our parents weren't there. Charlie cut him off mid sentence. He said " I just need a signature on the form. I am not going to follow you to the parking lot to see who signs it. " I thought that was the coolest. Twin Pines Ranch wasn't far from the house. He had a Paint stallion that was black and white spotted. I had a mare that looked just like him. I took her by there and he asked me to price her. I told him that she was a member of the family and had no price. He offered free stud service and we tried every year but never had a foal. I would have given it to him if we had. He was so approachable and down to earth. He sold the ranch a few years before his demise and we lost touch. Rock Hard Charlie. Rest in peace.

Charlie is who he is unashamed, just like all of us from the South he's our hero! RIP Charlie thanks for sending me the Birthday pic on my birthday this year.

What a natural talent this man was. Simply amazing.

I remember watching this when it was on. Thanks for everything Charlie. A lifetime of music.❤
