I am the same age as LS had they survived. They gave scum a bad name. Their tendency to pick fights when they outnumbered their opponents was legendary. At one london hotel nine or ten picked a fight withfive guys. The got beaten to a pulp by the Metropolitan Police boxing team.
Their interviews, their actions at the time endowed me with my hatred for them and Sweet Home Alabama was the culmination. Try reading the subtext as if you were black. South gonna rise again and put uppity ni***rs in their place. That is what the song means. Dont believe me? Try it on a black audience after increasing your life insurance. |

You obviously don't like the band, and that is your prerogative, but you are 'reading the subtext' to lyrics that don't exist. As a footnote, I attended a few LS concerts back in the 70's, and there was more than a few black fans in attendance at every concert. |

Demis Roussos after Aphrodite's Child.
Singing Schlager music with this voice is like using a Corvette for just driving to the mailbox. |

I don't think it's racist, Jewel Kilcher who strikes me as far from racist and normal did a cover of it, something just tells me if it was she wouldn't have done it and plays it live now and then also Jewel and Sheryl Crow's version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpxM2E3IY2U Good cover also

Lynyrd Skynyrd
Skynyrd racist,yeah right! I don't even think so.
Ballad Of Curtis Loew Well, I used to wake the mornin' before the rooster crowed Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough Brought 'em down to the corner, down to the country store Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Loew Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair When he had a fifth of wine, he did not have a care He used to own an old dobro, used to play it across his knees I'd give old Curt my money, he'd play all day for me Play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew Well, I got your drinking money, tune up your dobro People said he was useless, them people are the fools 'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues He looked to be sixty, and maybe I was ten Mama used to whip me but I'd go see him again I'd clap my hands, stomp my feet, try to stay in time He'd play me a song or two, then take another drink of wine Play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew Well, I got your drinking money, tune up your dobro People said he was useless, them people are the fools 'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues Yes Sir On the day old Curtis died, nobody came to pray Ol' preacher said some words, and they chunked him in the glade But he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues And on the day he lost his life, that's all he had to lose Play me a song Curtis Loew, hey Curtis Loew I wish that you was here so everyone would know People said you were useless, them people all were fools 'Cause Curtis, you're the finest picker to ever play the blues https://youtu.be/71qaX05-ArM

Let's see:
Are they sweaty? Check Banjo? Check Kinda alt-country by way of The Replacements? Check Do they write nauseating lyrics? Let's see Can you lie next to her And give her your heart, your heart As well as your body And can you lie next to her And confess your love, your love As well as your folly And can you kneel before the king And say I'm clean, I'm clean What was that you asked again? Oh, hell yeah . . . |
