Reviews:

CLASSIC.

WHEN I FIRST HEARD THAT ALBUM, I FELT LIKE AN OLD SUTHERLAND (FROM "WINNETOU") ON THE WILD WEST IN THE 1800S. AT EVENING, SITTING NEXT TO THE FIRE, PLAYING MY GUITAR AND SINGING SONGS TO THE LADY SITTING NEXT TO ME.

ALL SONGS ARE GREAT (WORTH BUYING) BESIDES "GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT". IT'S NOT A BAD SONG, BUT IT DOESN'T MATCH WITH THE OTHER SONGS ON THE ALBUM. PERFECT BALLADS - "WHY LADY WHY", "SOME OTHER PLACE, SOME OTHER TIME" AND LITTLE FASTER "CAN'T FORGET ABOUT YOU" OR "I WANNA COME OVER".

OLD SOUND OF COUNTRY, GOOD GUITAR ON ALL OF THE SONGS. TIMELESS MUSIC - TO WHICH YOU'LL BE COMING BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN.

One of the Greatest Southern Bands

I had the pleasure of actually meeting some of the guys in Alabama at the Bowery in Myrtle Beach, SC in 1979. I was not a fan of country music, on the contrary, did not care for it at all, but was talked into going to listen to them. Now I am glad that I went, because I discovered a group that was destined to make it big. During one of their breaks, I wanted to tell them how good I thought they were so I went to the table where bassist Teddy Gentry was sitting. We chatted for a bit, discussed music and at the time, I was drumming in a band in West Virginia. I asked them where they were headed and he told me they were negotiating a recording contract. Without hesitation I told Teddy that I'd give them a year and they would be the #1 band in the country. He smiled, thanked me for the vote of confidence and then went to finish another set. I handed him one of my band's business cards, wished him good luck and then enjoyed the rest of their music.
I purchased from them, a vinyl album jacketed with a white cover and black pen and ink drawing entitled "Alabama Band #3" which was recorded in an obscure Nashville studio, and I proceeded to wear it out. It contained those timeless classics they grew to be famous for, such as "Why, Lady, Why?", "Can't Forget About You" and of course "My Home's in Alabama". The guys in my band had never heard of them but when they listened to the music, they knew that Alabama would soon to be superstars.
This CD is the debut release, and while a great CD in its own right, you really should hear the previous mentioned "#3" album, it is Alabama in their pure state before corporate recording companies got hold of them. One cut on "#3" that is missing is a song called "Fantasy". It should have been included but was apparently replaced by other songs. "My Home's in Alabama" is the start to a really great collection of this fantastic band.
