Nightrider is the sixth studio album by Charlie Daniels and the second as The Charlie Daniels Band, released on November 25, 1975.
Track listing
All songs composed by the bandleader, Charlie Daniels, except where indicated:
Side one
- "Texas" - 3:04
- "Willie Jones" - 3:14
- "Franklin Limestone" (Tom Crain) - 5:40
- "Evil" - 2:53
Side two

There has been some confusion with the credits for the song "Birmingham Blues" that Charlie Daniels wrote for this 1975 album. In 1977, Jeff Lynne also wrote a song called "Birmingham Blues" for his band, Electric Light Orchestra's album, Out of the Blue, and now Allmusic shows the 1975 Charlie Daniels song as being co-written by Lynne[2] (but not the other way around), which is nonsensical.
