Album Review

Rhino Flashback's Best of Southern Rock may seem diminutive (ten songs), but it successfully represents the genre that spawned the term boogie rock. There's no "Sweet Home Alabama" or "Ramblin' Man" here; instead the compilers have chosen to include works from some of the '70s lesser known acts like Black Oak Arkansas, Molly Hatchet, Blackfoot and Confederate Railroad, resulting in one of the more versatile collections of hard rock, blues and country rock. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
