i own about 4 of these southern rock CDs to get a wide enough range of what Southern Rock offers, and these are good songs. For goodness sakes, if you want to dig Skynyrd, buy a double album. I'm old enough to have seen Duane Almann alive, and these slam in the truck CDs work for me for rockin' nostalgia, while commuting. And yes, Ghost Riders is worth the price my wife paid for the CD, I can't get my outlaw album to play in the truck!

This is a bargain-basement compilation that does it's job and acts as a sufficient sampler for the genre of "Southern Rock". Now, keeping in mind that due to licensing and compensation issues, manufacturers of this stuff can't neccessarily afford to always put on what they would like and, how a one cd sampler can never be considered a comprehensive representative of the genre, this brief, discount cd can do no wrong. A proper "Southern Rock" compliation should be a lengthy boxed set.

Can anybody deny that all of these groups and most of these songs qualify to be on a Southern Rock compliation? Only "The Kentucky Headhunters" are a questionable inclusion.

The sound quality is fine, the diversity of artists is appropriate and the songs are winners. With the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd Wet Willie, Outlaws, Elvin Bishop (nice call for putting him on), 38 Special, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Atlanta Rhythm Section, and Pure Prairie League, for probably less than $5, how can you go wrong?
