Fleetwood Mac didn't do this song better than this outfit. Don't really know why but I got hung up in the "Christine McVie vs Stevie Nicks" brouhaha. Two blondes one band, maybe that's an eternal hassle?
Pretty good song. I sincerely hope that The South doesn't rise again. Of course the Grand Lump wishes for this. If only The Lump never got a single wish again.
Sorry Dan, but Bob Seger has *never* recorded this song. Not even on his 'Night Moves' album, which I know practically by heart. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Moves_(album) Nor is it on either of the two 'Greatest Hits' compilations by Bob Seger. The video you posted is Dobie Gray singing his cover of the Mentor Williams song [1970-ish]. The song is called 'Drift Away'. It is misnamed as being by Bob Seger. This happens far too often on YouTube. I mean really, the poster does not even know the name of the song. [It's NOT 'Give me the beat boys'] Please expand the comments below the video you posted, to see that others know it's not Bob. To do this, open the video below, and then click on the 'YouTube' icon in the lower right corner. This will open a new tab in YouTube where you can read the comments. You will notice that the poster himself actually concedes that it is Dobie Gray, and not Bob. ...and compare the audio to Dobie Gray's 'Drift Away'... It's identical.
This one came out shortly before I left the Southeast Asian Paradise that we turned into hell. I gotta tell ya, I am so proud to be an American sometimes...
