Thank u Bette for starting this thread. I was running errands and received an alert that Charlie had passed. What a talent and he was so great to listen to. And his amazing fiddling!

I had the times of my life dancing to The Devil Went Down To Georgia years ago. Such happy, carefree times and memories.

Thank u Charlie for the wonderful music. RIP.
