Southern Rock!

Earlier this week, I posted the sad news that Barry Bailey, guitarist with Atlanta Rhythm Section, had passed. That prompted Marty Morse to comment on how underrated ARS was. That comment was the inspiration for today’s medley.

This medley of Southern Rock classics is by no means the definitive listing of bands who dominated the genre, but it is a good starting point.

So here you go, eight classics by eight great bands. Seems like a nice way to close out the week!

    Mornin’ Ray, that is some good Friday morning listening right there! After six days of home renovations I needed something more than coffee to get me started. Really enjoyed the medley and appreciate the Black Crowes were included. Have a good weekend my friend!

    Wow!! What wonderful choices you made. Putting this together ad to be a hard thing to do with so many songs that fit the category southern rock. You did certainly choose all the ones that I love. I guess Charlie Daniels band will still always get me every single time. Absolutely love that fiddle. My grandfather Moody used to play the fiddle. So thank you thank you thank you for winding up the week And picking such a great Friday entertainment. This medley was awesome! You’re the best Ray! ❤️

      Thank you, Sandy 🥰
      It was very difficult choosing songs because they were so many I wanted to add! I always need to remind myself that most listeners don’t want more than 25 minutes or so. I am very glad you enjoyed it ❤️

    Another great medley .. can’t go wrong with any of these artists!! I am partial to Charlie Daniels .. love Devil went down to Georgia!! He lived right up the road from me and a park here in town is named after him BUT the biggest thing that drew me to him is the support he gave our Veterans!!
    Have a wonderful weekend my friend!
