[@bishop4298]

This was the first time anyone had heard this song that night. It's one of the greatest live performances ever.

[@donsavignano4396]

Sure do miss Charlie Daniels R.I.P.🙏

[@timothybush9633]

Charlie was a "Good Ol' Boy", 10/28/1936 - 7/6/2020 RIP Charlie

[@waynegray1380]

I was at this show. I lived in upstate NY and saw a lot of great shows at SPAC. This was one of the best.

[@andrealee33]

I saw him in concert. He was amazing playing the fiddle.

[@rickwoodham4570]

The difference between a violin and a fiddle. A violin had strings a fiddled has strangs

[@the6cat.]

And you don't spill your beer on your violin.

[@robertcampopiano6001]

Saw them live back in 1981 and it was amazing.

[@myphone4590]

The lyrics "johnny" sings are the titles of classic fiddle tunes, and the fiddle plays a phrase from each song. The implication is he played a full set of fiddle classics, or medley thereof.

[@thewindle]

There is a follow up to this song with Charlie Daniels, Johnny Cash, Travis Trit and Marty Stewart, The Devil Returns to Georgia. Another great story song of his The Legend of Wooley Swamp. Great reaction. This song is still played on both classic country and classic rock radio stations.

[@AlexanderXenophon]

Thank you. Really. Thank you.

[@BarryOstle-o8z]

GREAT REACTION LOVE THIS SONG.😁

[@jasonregister3494]

The only difference between a violin and a fiddle is the bow is slightly looser than the way you would have it for a violin. And you usually use Minor chords for a fiddle. And major chords for a violin.

[@swcoder]

Some other good ones, "Stroker's Theme", "Uneasy Rider", "Long Haired Country Boy", and the "The Legend of Wooly Swamp".

[@boroblueyes]

There's an Uneasy Rider 88 also.

[@faydriahenderson9392]

Sure got the two of you moving.😄. Good one! Good to see you enjoyed it. 👍😄

[@robertlombardo8437]

The movie with Matthew McConaughey you're talking about is A Time to Kill. And it takes place in Mississippi, a VERY swampy hot place.

[@WandaDodson-n7f]

Love charlie hes very patriotic and sings what he believes in very talented one my favorite singers rip charlie react to simple man charlie Daniel's

[@jessedaniel6330]

love this song and always good to see another Kentuckian you all have a great channel

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Kentucky FTW!

[@jerrywalters8885]

There is a great follow up to this in the 90s. DEVIL GOES BACK TO GEORGIA. Special guests Johnny Cash Marty Stuart Travis Tritt and second fiddler Mark O'Connor. Very well done

[@jerrywalters8885]

CDB has many great songs a rabbit hole worth going down. And this concert was when the song came out

[@vladyvhv9579]

There's a sequel called "The Devil Comes Back To Georgia", from the Mark O'Connor album 'Heroes'. Charlie and Marc on the fiddles, Johnny Cash as the main narrator, with Marty Stuart taking over for the character of Johnny and Travis Tritt taking over for the Devil. I saw Charlie in concert when I was in the 7th grade. He shredded a few fiddle bows. The show was epic.

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

The video for it is Awesome.

[@Ron-t5d]

I seen Charlie Daniel’s Band at Mickey Gilley’s in Pasadena Texas in 1981. Great band.

[@chuckbrotton2449]

Connecting fiddle music with the Devil taps into a folklore tradition in southern Appalachia, and elsewhere, that goes back at least to the early 19th century. 'Devil's Dream' is the name of an old fiddle standard tune that's about that old and there was an saying about fiddling being "the sound of the Devil laughing "

[@dunhill1]

I can't ever forget the Geico commercial featuring the late great Charlie Daniels where he is inside a fancy restaurant and giving a quick tutorial on how to play the fiddle, then as he walks away he grabs a garlic bread stick off of one of the customers table, like a real boss. Check it out some time.

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Ha! Gotta check it out!

[@matthewdooley7855]

Back in the day, stories about confrontations with the devil were pretty common. That's also the background of "Crossroads" a song that's been done, and re-done (maybe most famously by Eric Clapton). In that song, a young musician goes down to the Crossroads, where he meets the devil and give his soul in exchange for guitar talent. Nowadays the devil is often replaced by a record exec.

[@Gaminghour2018]

Yall should check out the sequel to this song "The Devil Comes back to Georgia" it features Travis Tritt an Johnny Cash

[@jamescurfman3284]

And a few other people, all Stars in Country music at the time. It was amazing.

[@xheralt]

Tenacious D's "Tribute" is a tribute to this song as well.

[@PeterOConnell-pq6io]

This one is fun!

[@shortyhedrick]

Check out Orange Blossom Special live the Charlie Daniels man

[@cameltanker1286]

Charlie Daniels Band were one of the many Southern Rock bands that came out of the late 70's and early 80's. You should check out his recording of the South Going To Do It Again.

[@johnkelley2201]

Check out some really old Charlie Daniels, and listen to Uneasy Rider. Another story telling song, and very funny!

[@blindeyedog01]

I went to US Army Airborne school in Georgia. You are right, down South is a nasty sticky heat, it's uncomfortable. 😂😂😂

[@matthewcostello3530]

my favorite of his was Uneasy Rider

[@linkerthejedi2575]

A lot of older country music like this tell stories

[@RobRager]

This would have been 1979.

[@jeffreykeith6494]

I wasn't going to sub, then you had to go and say you were raised in Kentucky. Me too. Greetings from Valley Station, Louisville.

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

This was in 79.

[@_Koach]

This song only predated Tenacious D by a quarter century or so, but they do share some common themes.

[@MarcVanLaere-zr5im]

RIP Charlie.

[@GregWills-1969]

tribute was based on this from what ive heard

[@Smittay-Sr.]

Y'all made this song more enjoyable with your funny comments! Lol 🎶 🎻

[@albertjflores8950]

He ain't fiddling around 👀🤔😳😃👀😀

[@BlueDragon53]

Great song loved your reaction! Now you have to go watch - The Chicks (nee DIxie Chicks) "SIn Wagon" Live version, it's a rousing good time!

[@matthewcostello3530]

the Carter's Can the Circle be Unbroken

[@rayrodriguez8417]

Tenacious D song is a Tribute to this one.

[@jerrywalters8885]

Also a funny Muppet parody about weed it's hilarious

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Wha???

[@loveloochay]

Blammmmmm !!! 🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻

[@aaronshackelford6106]

May Charlie Daniels rest in peace

[@brianbrekke9500]

Other songs to check out Legend of Woolwy Swamp, uneasy rider, Strokes Theme, boogie woogie fiddle country blues

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

So, young man grew up in KY? That reminds me of a young man (probably a great bit older now) called Henry Cho-I'm reasonably confident he was a Korean lad, but grew up I believe in Tennessee. With the accent and everything. Man, was that kid funny.

[@brianbrekke9500]

Being from Kentucky, you need to check out one of your local artists. PATTY lovelesssinging you'll never leave Harlan Alive

[@Thomas5880]

If you liked this song have a look at the follow up song "The Devil Comes back to Georgia" its got Charlie Daniels, Johnny Cash as well as Travis Tritt. It's just as good as this song, with some REALLY serious fiddling to back it up. Enjoy it!

[@RobertCartwright-sk7rr]

Notice how the demons don’t need more cowbell!

[@SweDennis]

If you liked this, you'd like "Talk to me fiddle", performed by Charlie even more. It goes through different genres of music, and Really shows off his fiddle skills. Just as a tip from me to you.

[@buzzbiadasz3437]

What's some of Charlie's newer versions, he gets better and faster.

[@patswanson2870]

I’ve never seen anyone move to Rap like you two just did to this song. Music could be fun at one time. What happened?

[@WilliamWarlick]

Ain't the same today. I'm 67 years old, and I was witness to the greatest music ever produced while I was growing up. I was blessed.

[@jeffreykeith6494]

I just turned 60. I know exactly what you're saying. ​@@WilliamWarlick

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

Wonderful reactions. Please check out - Mark O'Connors - The Devil Comnes Back To Georgia.

[@ivansavoie3190]

I'm pretty sure you would like Earl Scruggs and Friends Foggy Mountain Breakdown, great reaction

[@bre2581]

A lot of great legends in this one

[@crossoverbunchshow8793]

Can you do Richard Goodall and journey and the winning moment

[@pennybrogers8093]

Please tell me what a typical country song is. I've been listening to it for 6 decades and I still haven't heard a typical county song.

[@jasonregister3494]

Not Barn dance. It's called a hoedown 😂

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Hoedowns FTW!

[@Tanker880]

LOL...Actually... Tenacious D sounds like The Charlie Daniels Band.

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Darn good point!

[@KaidenOrgana]

Now you need to follow up with: The Muppets - Devil Went Down to Jamaica - kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6GYlmyEituLbKM

[@troyshilanski380]

70s decade

[@robertmielke3380]

1980

[@brianwinn9491]

I enjoy this song and certainly CD's fiddling skill in it. As good as it is, I think it is kind of "gimmicky" and unfortunately overshadows a lot of his better music.

[@WandaDodson-n7f]

Fiddle man

[@WandaDodson-n7f]

Charlie could play any stringed instrument

[@les4767]

Tenacious D isn't fit to polish Charlie Daniels' Fiddle.

[@ReactToTheWorld]

But they do make a mean sausage!

[@greggwilliamson]

You compared Charlie Daniels to Ten D? That earned you a block. You NEVER compare Charlie Daniels to a commucrat traitor.

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Sounds like you got it all figured out. Good for you!

[@boroblueyes]

FAFO Fiddle around and find out.

[@thegreeninvasion5511]

You lost me When you compared tenacious D to Charlie Daniel’s! You should be ashamed Of yourselves🤯👎

[@joycepalm9190]

Nice reaction, but why are you in your underwear?

[@douggaijin]

A fiddle is a violin with a big bad attitude.
