Happy 4th of July America!

100 Great Southern Rock Songs

Nuthin' defines America more than southern rock. This music, America's rock and roll, is what I like to listen to on July 4th. I don't know why other than it just fits perfectly with an afternoon barbaque complete with hot dogs, hamburgers, cold beer, apple pie, and waiting for the evening time fireworks. The following list is by no means the definitive 100 Best Southern Rock Songs. The list, however, at least for me, defines what southern rock is all about: honest, dirty, hard working, and all American.
