A recap of the late legend's 15 biggest Hot Country Songs hits. Charlie Daniels passed away on July 6 at Summit Medical Center in Hermitage, Tennessee (just outside of Nashville), from a hemorrhagic stroke.

He was 83. The iconic artist first reached a Billboard chart in 1973, entrenched in the popular Southern rock scene alongside such mainstays as The Allman Brothers Band and The Marshall Tucker Band.

By the mid-1980s, however, he was considered a core country act thanks to a string of success on the Hot Country Songs survey.

In 1974, Daniels launched the Volunteer Jam, one of the first multi-artist festivals, which over the years attracted a wide range of acts, from Little Richard and Tammy Wynette to Steppenwolf and Billy Joel.
