A mature solo work that combines the melancholy and technique of Southern rock.
This album by a band led by Allman Brothers Band guitarist Dickey Betts blends twin guitar harmonies with a country flavor to create a record that encapsulates the passion of Southern rock.
The album features earthy guitar tones and slide sounds, and Betts' melody sense shines through on tracks like "Out to Get Me" and "Run Gypsy Run." The thick twin-guitar ensemble and lyrical melodies reminiscent of the Southern landscape are impressive. This is a fine album that maintains the Allman-esque blues flow while evolving into more melodic rock.
