Sweet Home Alabama: Southern Rock

Post by Petingo »

Great documentary on BBC 4 last night about how Rock managed to thrive in the South with the emergence of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers and others at a time when Country was the only thing any white men listened to down there.
Alex Young, Howard Kendall, Andy King, Timmy Cahill, Dixie Dean and Mike Parry.....we'll never see the likes of them again.

Watched it last night highly enjoyable
I have greatest respect for Rugby Union, they started it mid-way through the 19th century. Thankfully we grabbed it and turned it into a spectacle on 29th August 1895

CCR Rock. Not strictly southern but still brilliant.
The most abused and banned poster in Talkforum history.

To be fair, the American south is where Rock n Roll comes from.
