I never would have thought to toss them in that mix. Perhaps Country Rock, espcially the first couple albums, but never southern. I thought there wqas more a California / Detroit mix IIRC.

Limp Bizkit. Country and Western? Shania Twain. Who has a song closer to Sweet Home Alabama?  I agree with what you wrote, I just don't quite hear a southern rock vibe in Eagles. Fill in the blank for me, Sweet Home Alabama, If You Wanna Get to Heaven, Ramblin Man, Free Bird, Green Grass and High Tides, Fire on the Mountain, Midnight Rider, _________________  Life in the Fast Lane? Hotel California? Desperado?  BTW, I love the Eagles.

But I don't really consider those rock tunes. They are more country.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Southern_rock_bands http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_rock http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Country_Rock  There is a lot of cross over there.

There is a lot of crossover, but there are major differences. Southern Rock is Rock with a southern feel. Country rock is rock with country influences. You won't hear .38 Special on a country station, but you will hear the Eagles. You won't hear Shania Twain on a rock station.  Read through the southern rock links, very little cross over to country and western charts.  Southern does not equal country.       QUOTE(knightni @ Feb 13, 2007 -> 11:00 AM) John Fogerty was born in California y'know Tex.  The Band is from Canada, yet are considered southern rock.
