Charles Edward "Charlie" Daniels (born October 28, 1936) is an American musician, singer and songwriter known for his contributions to country, bluegrass, and Southern rock music. He is perhaps best known for his number one country hit "The Devil Went Down to Georgia", and multiple other songs he has written and performed. Daniels has been active as a singer since the early 1950s. He was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry on January 24, 2008 and the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
Career
Daniels is a singer, guitarist, and fiddler, who began writing and performing in the 1950s. In 1964, Daniels co-wrote "It Hurts Me" (a song which Elvis Presley recorded) with Joy Byers. He worked as a Nashville session musician, often for producer Bob Johnston, including playing 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 produced the 1969 album by The Youngbloods, Elephant Mountain and played the violin on "Darkness, Darkness".
Charlie Daniels received five stars out of five from Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic. Erlewine concludes that "he's [Charlie Daniels] a redneck rebel, not fittting into either the country or the rock & roll of 1970 with his record, but, in retrospect, he sounds like a visionary, pointing the way to the future when southern rockers saw no dividing lines between rock, country, and blues, and only saw it all as sons of the south. That's what he achieves with Charlie Daniels -- a unique Southern sound that's quintessentially American, sounding at once new and timeless. Once he formed the Charlie Daniels Band, he became a star and with Fire on the Mountain, he had another classic, but he would never sound as wild, unpredictable, or as much like a maverick as he does on this superb album.".
Joe later was a successful college head coach for 33 seasons.
He coached at Cheyney University of Pennsylvania from 1972 to 1978, Central State University from 1981 to 1993, Florida A&M University from 1994 to 2004, and Miles College from 2007 to 2010.
Joe achieved his greatest success at Central State, where his teams won
2 NAIA National Football Championships in 1990 and 1992 and made many appearances in the NAIA football playoffs during the 1980s and 1990s. He teams at Florida A&M have made various appearances in the Division I-AA (now FCS) playoffs during the 1990s and early 2000s.
Charlie Daniels (born 7 September 1986) is an English professional footballer who plays for Bournemouth as a defender.
Career
Daniels started his career playing for youth club Ridgeway Rovers and Interwood F.C. then moved onto Norwich City before joining Tottenham Hotspur's youth academy. He worked his way up through to the reserves, before earning his first professional contract in July 2005.
Daniels spent time on loan at Chesterfield during the 2006–07 season, but sustained an injury in only his second game, and returned to Tottenham.
In the summer of 2007, Leyton Orient boss, Martin Ling signed Daniels on loan for the entire League One season, after watching him regularly in the Tottenham reserves.
Following his last game at Orient, Daniels was sent back to Tottenham, where he had a year remaining on his contract. In August 2008, he joined Gillingham on a one-month loan. He made his debut for Gillingham in a 1–0 home win over Accrington Stanley and scored his only goal for the club with a free kick in a 3–0 home win over Grimsby Town. Daniels then returned to Spurs at the end of September and expressed an interest in trying to break into the first team.

The Charlie Daniels Band - Parchmont Farm.wmv
On this, Charlie Daniels' second release, there are obvious signs of a bright future for the guitar- and fiddle-playing hillbilly rocker. Along for the ride is Joel "Taz" DiGregoria, Charlie's longtime bandmate and keyboard wizard. Taz even takes lead vocal duties on one song, "Billy Joe Young," and his ivory tickling is a highlight of this historical Southern rock document. Daniels rocks with the intensity of a downbound train on "Great Big Bunches of Love," and on his cover of the Jerry Lee Lewis chestnut "Drinkin' Wine, Spo-Dee-O-Dee." A true Southern poet, Charlie Daniels is seen here in the infancy of his artistic development, but even at this early stage, the poet is alive and well.

The Charlie Daniels Band - Long Long Way (Back Home).wmv
This album shows Charlie at his lean and basic best. For a first solo album, it is not a bad CD to listen to, though it gets a little embarrasing to listen to at times. Charlie sounds like he is trying so hard to make this album a success which is quite understandable. The best cut on this CD has to be "39 Miles From Mobile." If you listen to it in a vacuum, you could swear that it is part of the Fire On The Mountain song repitore. The following album, "Te John Grease and Wolfman" fares a little better and it sounds like he is more comfortable with singing. The third album, "Honey In The Rock" is the definite icing on the cake, the definitive CDB. I have to admit that this album is better than Fire On The Mountain because the songs on Honey In The Rock was sung with all out soul. The fourt...

I was hanging in out in L.A. looking for a real cool place to go I struck up a conversation with this dude wearing hip hop clothes He said you talk like you're from Texas let me welcome you to our town An I hope you have a real find day But don't you let me catch you when the sun goes down CHORUS We got scalawags we got queens in drag we got pushers pimps and punks We got crips and bloods we got dykes and studs We've got junkies thieves and drunks This is where the juice got turned aloose and if you ain't caught on yet Ain't no law in California Welcome to the wild wild west He said there's women in this city that are just too low down to crawl And homeboys packing pieces they'll shoot you just to watch you fall You'ld better get on back to Hicksville that's the bast thing you can do There's hustlers hoods and outlaws that'd love to find a country boy like you
