Southern rock is suicide music, up there with country.

Strange however, that today's top southern rocker lives in clarkston mi.

So what?

They INVENTED the sound.

As for "Freebird"? **** NO! NOBODY needs to ever hear that song again! Out of all the songs that band did it's just a travesty that most of the mindless drones only know 5 songs by them.

I'd have to go with 'Sweet Home Alabama' as the greatest song

But my personal favorite is Jackyl, 'The Lumberjack' 👍

cked."But regardless, it's just words...I'm more interested in pulling out my MTB, Outlaws, ABB, Grinderswitch, .38 Special, Elvin Bishop, Skynyrd, ARS, etc. CDs and playing them.

I'm no Yankee but how 'bout "Green Grass and High Tides" by the Outlaws?

Edit: As far as MTB songs go, I've always been partial to "Can't You See."

I also like "Saturday Night Special" by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

And really like Camel Walk by SCOTS.

Actually, this thread is really a trick question.

The answer, of course, is Won't Get Fooled Again by The Who.
















If you can't hear the southern twang in Roger's voice, then you ain't listening son.

Yeah, my bad. For some odd reason when I played "Travelin' Shoes" I thought of it as Southern Rock. Maybe the album cover for "Let it Rock" with him fishing on the dock and all threw me off. And it was on Capricorn Records so that added to my confusion / mis-remembrance. 🤦

Anything by Duran Druan.

They were from, like, Biloxi, right? 🖐






I can go with the OP. WTH. All the southern rock was/is pretty damn good.

I live in the south - I don't particularly like southern rock any more than any other rock. I'd rather listen to Rush than southern rock.

But Freebird is still the #1 southern rock anthem, like or don't. Is what it is, mane.


REM is from Georgia, but that doesn't make them southern rock. They're alternative, just like most of their fans...and the B52's are, well, ya know. ~Rock Lobster~ YaY!!! [jester]
