All of the above are from the late 60's and early 70's. There was a time (when drugs, alcohol, and women) just about ruined a lot of the bands above. ( Me too)I allways liked Neil Young,B B King, Savoy Brown, Early Fleetwood Mac, etc.,) Around 74-75, I got into a lot of Country and Blues Music. (Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams Sr and Jr, George Jones, Jimmy Rogers, Johnny Paycheck, Johnny Winter,Albert King,Muddy Waters,(check out Electric Mud if you get a chance),Buddy Guy,Freddie King, etc.) I was also into a lot of George Dickel and other substances at this time. DISCO SUCKED, The Rolling Stones sucked ( untill Some Girls),The Eagles sucked, Fleetwood Mac sucked. Now I listen to John Hiatt, Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams, Uncle Tupelo, Travis Twitt,etc, but I allways go back to the mid to late 60's- early 70's blues rock. Oh, by the way,Greg Allman-Searching For Simplicity is a great album.
