I cotton to the Allmans, first and above all

Talk at it!

 

Lynrd Skynrd, Blackberry smoke are my faves, love me some Allman bros and Marshall tucker as well

 

Molly - and don't never forget the "Dickey Betts Band"

ZZTop is a gotta have

"Wise man tole me there's somethin' you should know -
'Way you judge a man is to look into his soul..."
~ Molly Hatchet

 

Oh yeah molly hatcht forgot them...I like the black crowes a lot.

 

There was an upstart band around Memphis a while ago called "Skillet"

But I have no idea what happened with them

 

Im not sure if they are the same but there is aband still kickin called skillet. i assume its the same but from what i heard they aint really southern

 

Could be - my stepson told me about them and said they were local to the Memphis area.

I guess Mathew just ain't in it that deep..............

Sometimes I wonder just what kinda music he's gittin' me to listen to

WHO DID "Green Grass and High Tides", from Florida?

The "Outlaws"?


*I swear my mind is numb right now................

 

yes sir! the outlaws...the lead singr of that band later went on to be the frontman for country rock outfit "blackhawk"

 

Place this one here:

"Train, train!
Take me on out of this town..."

(Maybe we ought to do lyric questions)





I gotta go, see ya when next we thow down!

 

That would be train train by blackfoot

Im a bit of a music nerd...

 

Did I hear correctly Gregg Allman has a new album coming out? Heard what I think was a new tune in his signature style----sounded pretty good!

Train, Train by Blackfoot has always been one of my favorite tunes---hard to believe a drummer fronted that band!

 

The Allman Brothers are the Godfathers of Southern Rock. Their influence is strong in almost every Southern rock band:
Marshall Tucker,
Lynyrd Skynyrd,
Molly Hatchet,
Charlie Daniels (yeah, I know. country, but his early stuff...),

"Whipping Post" is probably my favorite song by the Allmans. There's so much soul and pain in that song. But I love the back story of "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed." (<-- although this is probably the true reason for the song, it isn't the original version of the story I heard. Someone else can explain it)

 

The true Fab Four - Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker, Allman Bros., Charlie Daniels.

 

Don't forget Little Feat

 

I ain't wasting time no more, cause time goes by like pouring rain..............

And don't forget .38 Special, in fact all those Van Zant brothers are all badass southern rockers.

Marshall Tucker is my favorite. Toy and Tommy Caldwell died way too young.
