Description

Grammy winner and Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Charlie McCoy is one of a small group of musicians that transformed Nashville from the home of the Grand Ole Opry to a global recording hub.

His genre transcending discography reads like a Who's Who of American popular music, including epic recordings with Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, George Jones and hundreds more.

But Charlie's story is more than a window into a golden era of recording. It underscores a passion for music making that transcends format, genre, and era.

In this episode of Off The Charts, session legend Charlie McCoy and Lionel Cartwright discuss Charlie's almost mythical career as a session musician. Charlie shares in depth experiences from legendary sessions, the importance of recognizing opportunities, retaining a love for music making in the long run.
