I made this list up for fun several years ago. I want to update it because this was done before I discovered Blackberry Smoke, Grinderswitch and Shooter Jennings. Plus, it's kinda interesting to see the large swath of artists that I considered "Southern Rock" at the time: Grateful Dead, Delbert McClinton, Dwight Yoakam, Little Feat, The Eagles, Hank Williams Jr, etc. Yeah, I think I gotta redo this list, but I thought I'd show you where I'm starting from.
