Last week the Adam Ezra Group released this VDO.
The wicked cover of Charlie Daniels Band classic, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia.” scored big on Youtubes with 40,000 views.
“People were psyched hearing our version during a tour of the South. They freaked out,” Ezra, the leader of the Boston-based roots rock combo, told bsoton.com. “So we scheduled a studio session for the week we got back and recorded it.”
Someone complained about the cover and the song was pulled from the website, then re-released since it was a parody.
I doubt it was Charlie Daniels. He’s too much of a good ole boy not to have a little fun, especially since the original on youtube got millions of views and for good reason.
It’s a wicked good song and Charlie Daniels is a damn fine fiddler.
