Jacksonville and the Roots of Southern Rock

University Press of Florida

The Allman Brothers Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd helped usher in a new kind of southern music from Jacksonville, Florida. Together, they and fellow bands like Blackfoot, 38 Special, and Molly Hatchett would reset the course of seventies rock. Michael FitzGerald tells the story of how the River City bred this generation of legendary musicians.

Michael Ray FitzGerald is a media historian, musician, and former journalist based in Jacksonville, Florida.
