Yeah, I hear ya. Country is kinda irritating, but Southern Rock is very delightful. In that genre of music, Skynyrd reigns supreme. My favorite songs are:

Free Bird(no brainer)
Simple Man
The Ballad of Curtis Leow(Don't hear this enough)

Swamp Music, and the Needle and the Spoon

i love the bit in needle and the spoon where Ronnie's singing 'i know, i know, i know...' and it kinda fades out and turns into the guitar solo. cool as fuck.

Jason Isbell - Decoration Day

Originally recorded when Jason was in the band Drive-By Truckers, this is a killer version by his current band, the 400 Unit.

Johnny Cash - A boy named Sue
Willie Nelson - You were always on my mind
Alabama - Roll On
Steve Earl - Cooperhead road
CCR - I put a spell on you
Neil Young - Harvest moon

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

The whole Skynyrd 'Pronounced...' album is an American masterpiece. Had to be one of the most critical, classic albums ever. I only have it on vinyl collecting dust in my garage. Maybe my cousin burned me some of their stuff, I'll have to look around.
