Essential Super Hits is a compilation album by American musician Charlie Daniels. Released on July 27, 2004, the compilation consists of a compact disc of Daniels' hits, and a 5-song DVD video.

The CD is somewhat known for having rerecorded versions of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia", "Still In Saigon", "The South's Gonna Do It", and "Uneasy Rider", and "Long Haired Country Boy." In "The Devil Went Down To Georgia", the line featuring "son of a bitch" is sung as "son of a gun" and in "Uneasy Rider" many of the pop culture references have been updated. In "Long Haired Country Boy" the references to drugs (including alcohol) have been replaced.
