- The Band – The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down (1969) Written by guitarist Robbie Robertson – a Canadian enthralled by the mythical south – and sung by Arkansas-born drummer Levon Helm, Dixie tells the story of the end of the Civil War from the point of view of an southern soldier: beaten and tired, overtaken by the march of progress.
- Lynyrd Skynyrd – Free Bird (1973) The track that, more than any other, defined the southern rock genre. The beginning of the song is almost a power ballad, as Ronnie Van Zant asks the immortal question ‘If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?’
- Allman Brothers Band – Ramblin’ Man (1973) One of the pioneering southern rock bands, it was the Allman Brothers’ mix of blues, country and jazz that forged their overall sound.
- Little Feat – Dixie Chicken (1973) Little Feat’s landmark third album saw Lowell George writing some of the best songs of his career and the band developing an oozy, denser sound that suited them perfectly.
- 'Can't You See' Marshall Tucker Band. From 'Marshall Tucker Band' (1973) Starting out in South Carolina, the Marshall Tucker Band (not a man like so many people want to believe) still tour regularly, and one of their biggest hits ‘Can’t You See’ still gets serious airplay.
- 'Sweet Home Alabama' Lynyrd Skynyrd. From 'Second Helping' (1974) If Birmingham has an anthem, hopefully this is it. Lynyrd Skynyrd, led by the late songwriter Ronnie Van Zant, may have a redneck image but it shouldn’t over-shadow the fact that Van Zant was a real rocker that wrote down to earth lyrics with a rebellious spirit.
- 'Green Grass & High Tides' The Outlaws. From 'The Outlaws' (1975) The Outlaws formed in Tampa, Florida in 1972, and after hitting the road for some intense touring, were the first act signed to Arista records by legendary guru Clive Davis.
- 'Highway Song' Blackfoot. From: 'Strikes' (1979) If there were ever the perfect song for the all the truckers out there, this one’s it. Featuring an absolutely blistering guitar solo, ‘Highway Song’ has enough adrenalin to keep you awake even on the longest of rides.
