Charlie wrote his autobiography in 2008/2009.
It contains such
things as him hiring Charlie Daniels to play guitar while he was still unknown,
Charlie's relationship with Alan
Jackson and how Charlie was the first songwriter in Nashville
to co-write
and pay Alan to sing a demo. Charlie and Alan collaborated
on 11 songs over the course of Charlie's
career. And the times Charlie spent with Roy
Rogers, particularly when he introduced Roy to Johnny Cash.
In his 40 plus
years on Music Row, Charlie had many personal stories to tell
in his book. There is no "smut," but
you will find many truths revealed about
what takes place behind the scenes in the
music industry. This book is such a
wonderful read.
"The fans are such a huge part of our success
and, as artist, we are willing to share
ourselves as a way of further involving them
in our experiences. I hope you
enjoying reading my book and find yourself
surprised by the sensitive and humorous
personalities of your favorite celebrities
and heroes." - - -
