Elvin Bishop

Wet Willie

Molly Hatchet

Allman Brothers

Grinderswitch

These great bands made the defining music of a simple people in simpler times. Southern Rock was a onetime event that will never be repeated. I am glad I got to experience it up close and personal, even interacting with some of the players. They weren’t mega stars then and everyone knew everyone else. Tickets for show weren’t 300 dollars a pop and many shows were just set up in local parks and hayfields with the public invited for free or at their farms, as was the case with the Allman Brothers and Grinderswitch where I visited often. . I should write a book, but then maybe not. It might attract copyright infringements from Philip K. Dick’s A Scanner Darkly. Lets just say, the entertainment extracted a heavy price. There are no free rides.

Jimmy Hall is the cousin of a very good friend of mine.

Disco was a bitches thing, and led the way for the music industry to become a total crap machine spewing out tunes that no one can remember or identify from one day to the next. But multiculturalists loved it. It was great way to expose their white daughters to African culture, thereby guaranteeing they get a caramel kid for a grand baby. The greatest generation, they called them.

The music I fell in love with in my late teens. Truth in the form of song.

There would be so many to choose from, especially from that time period, but this song is one of the top in what I would consider an ‘anthem’ song.
