There's a lot of fiddle playing in country, folk and Americana. You could easily draw up a list of your favourite fiddling moments across many genres, but one track undoubtedly stands out as being more synonymous with the fiddle than any other... yep, the Charlie Daniels Band with The Devil Went Down To Georgia, and in good old fashioned God-fearing country style (spoiler alert), unlike in countless blues and rock songs, Old Nick doesn't come out of the contest with his fresh sole. Woohoo, let's hear it for Johnny seeing off the challenge of the devil and claiming his prize of a fiddle of gold.
