The world has just lost another legendary musician as word has come in that Country Music Hall of Fame member Charlie Daniels has passed away at the age of 83 years old.
A member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Daniels has also been inducted into the Cheyenne Frontier Days Hall of Fame, the Grand Ole Opry, and the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum.
Of course, Daniels is perhaps best known for the hit country song, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” which was released by The Charlie Daniels Band in 1979 for the album Million Mile Reflections.
Ranking at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, the song earned Daniels a Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance.
