He did the same to Long Haired Country Boy; I will take another toke to I will tell another joke.
Fun fact: he played on Dylan's Nashville Skyline album.

The devil cheated. He needed a band and really didn't fiddle. Johnny won.

Naw. Devil had a better bass player and rhythm section. But Johnny took him ok the fiddle.

The Devil cheated and had a band join in.

Not just any band either. I believe it was a band of demons.

If you're talking fiddle vs fiddle Johnny wins 10 ot of 10 times no question.

Johnny for the win!
I am not a contract lawyer, but I am pretty sure when you sign a deal with the devil, he will get credit for 10 SEC Championships won under Nick Saban.
And that folks, is how you piss off LSU and Bama fans at the same time.

The devil himself knew he was beat. End of story.

No, the devil cheated

I'm sure the devil could easily attain another golden fiddle. Johnny, on the other hand, would lose his soul to the devil forever. He had to be on meth and needed quick money to take that deal.

Devil should have been DQ'd the second the band of demons joined in. It was a one-on-one competition.

Then he rubbed it in the Devil’s face and called him a son of a bitch. Total alpha move.

I've wondered what happened to Johnny after this encounter.

I was a young teenager and got to see Charlie play this song live at the State Fair in Shreveport. By the end of the song there was barely a string left on his bow.

I remember he also got pissed about the game Guitar Hero using the song for the final boss because you could lose to the devil and he didn't like that.

They were equally good- because they were both Charlie.
