A first class project that showed what southern rock is supposed to be all about. It stands with fond memories in my youth and as I've grown older it has not diminished. In my opinion this is Charlie's best project.
The unique blend of rock and country on this CD is exceptional.īeginning with 'Caballo Diablo', a story about a horse and a man's quest to tame him this album moves through songs of attitude (Long Haired Country Boy), songs of barroom mischief (Trudy), of feelings for home (Georgia) and wanting to roam (Feeling Free), of the 'redneck coaliton' (The South's Gonna Do It Again) to some bluegrass covers with drums (Orange Blossom Special) this CD is terrific.
At a time when the Rock-Country (Southern Rock) music was coming into its own, this was the benchmark album that all others would come to be measured against. What an unbelievable, trend setting album.
