Southern Rock...

For some unknown reason, I didn't develop a taste for Southern Rock in the 70's.
I did get to see the Allman Brothers Band in 1971... up close and they were terrific.
Extended jams did get boring, but it's the easiest way to make 5 songs last a one-hour set.

My favorite Allman Brothers song is (the 5 minute version of) Whipping Post.
The extended version is monotonous for my ears.
In this song, the Southern Rock label is shared with Blues Rock.

38 Special.
I actually bought their album.

I saw Lynyrd Skynyrd in concert... probably 25 years ago. It was a great performance.

Whipping Post is one of the best songs ever....and ONLY by the Allman Bros.
