Charles Edward Daniels (October 28, 1936 – July 6, 2020) was an American singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist known for his contributions to Southern rock, country, and bluegrass music.
While he worked as a Nashville session musician, often for Bob Johnston, he played guitar and electric bass on four Bob Dylan albums:
- Nashville Skyline (1969)
- Self Portrait (1970)
- New Morning (1970)
- Dylan (1973)
He was completely different than what I had read about him. He was funny, down-to-earth and a very nice guy.
