8. Any Volunteer Jam Album That includes Volunteer Jam, Volun-
teer Jam III and IV, Volunteer Jam VII, and the more recent Best of The Volunteer Jam Volumes 1 and 2. The Volunteer Jams were/are the epicenter of Southern rock.
bass player in Southern rock. And Warren Haynes? Sheesh. And Matt Abts? Please. Like I said, if I start on The Mule, this may turn into a book. Imagine that.
13. Honest to Goodness - Grinderswitch Dru Lombar, Larry Howard, Joe Dan Petty... man, do I miss Dru. We sure have lost some great Southern rockers these past few years. One fine album.
14. Eat a Peach - The Allman Brothers Band Nothing else like it, fom “Mountain Jam” to “Blue Sky.”
15. Champagne Jam- Atlanta Rhythm Section What a great band. My buddy Robert Nix wrote some great tunes, and the whole band just played like nobody’s business. The best harmonies. Wow. All good.
9. The Wetter The Better - Wet Willie Every record brother Jimmy Hall and
the band recorded is a living, breathing work of sweat soaked soul. This one is my favorite. Truth be told, that cover art may have a little something to do with it. Just kidding. I am all about the music.
10. Second Helping - Lynyrd Skynyrd “Curtis Leow” is my favorite Skynyrd

11. Brother - Cry of Love This North Carolina band had it going
on in the 1990’s, and “Peace Pipe” remains an all time favorite song and Audley Freed a fa- vorite guitar slinger.
12. Dose - Gov’t Mule Don’t get me started. The Mule rocked
my world from day one. When Woody died, my whole life changed. To me, he was the best
16. Ladies Choice - Bonnie Bramlett No, she wasn’t a Southern girl, but by God she is now. And this, one of her Capricorn re- leases, finds her surrounded by Gregg All- man, Chuck Leavell, and a slew of Southern royalty. Not to mention, Southern Soul Sister Number One can wail.
