I loved his early stuff before he became the caricature of the people he sang about as a young man.

I enjoyed his early stuff too.  Saw him open for Marshall Tucker at the Stanley in March of 1976.  We drove down from IUP for the show.  It was a school night and I probably needed a lot of coffee for the morning classes....

I saw him in the early 80s but never saw Marshall Tucker.   I bet I sang and played "Can't You See" a hundred times in cover bands.   I would have loved to see them once.

Never saw Charlie, closest I came was when he played Rosedale Firehall about ten yrs ago.
