Quoted from the Rolling Stone page, Tuesday (07/07/2020) Daniels had started music since the 1950s. He is known for his contribution to country-rock music.
The man born in Wilmington had even won a Grammy in 1979 through the song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia".
Not only the Grammy award, Daniels also received other awards during his career, say you became a member of the Grand Ole Opry in 2008, induction to the Musicians Hall of Fame in 2009 and the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2016.
In 1964, Daniels co-wrote "It Hurts Me" (a song which Elvis Presley recorded) with his friend, producer Bob Johnston, under Bob's wife's name, Joy Byers. He worked as a Nashville session musician, often for Johnston, including playing guitar and electric bass on three Bob Dylan albums during 1969 and 1970, and on recordings by Leonard Cohen. Daniels recorded his first solo album, Charlie Daniels, in 1971 (see 1971 in country music). He also produced the 1969 album by the Youngbloods, Elephant Mountain.
His first hit, the novelty song "Uneasy Rider", was from his 1973 third album, Honey in the Rock, and reached No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100.
