I did a session with Charlie (and James Cotton) for Oak Publications in
Nashville in 1979. Charlie walked around the studio every once in a
while, playing almost every instrument in sight, and there were more
than a few instruments there.
Charlie began his career as a rock and roll guitarist, he told me.
Obviously, there is way too much music in that guy to be confined to a
single instrument.
