Okay, maybe 1979, 80 Cumberland County Memorial Stadium in NC.......home of the 82nd Airborne. Shit, I am a Marine stationed in New River, NC and we invade thier space for a concert with Molly. Not sure at what point, but I remember it was near the end, that some Army pogue, without his chute, recongnized that we were Corps, and during this song, a mini riot broke out.
interestingly enough, the cover art of the rider with the hatchet i also saw in the 80's on a poster for Fort Hood Road Runner Games... anyone know it's original usage?
youtube is gonna be shut down by SOPA for songs like this (copyright violations or some dumb shit like that) so FIGHT SOPA if you love youtube or any other media share sites!!!!
When asked by a woman why he drank so much he said "Because I'm afraid of flying." Then the woman asked why he was afraid of flying. He replied, "Because I drink too much."
didnt even know who these guy's were when I first seen them. At a thing called The Summer Blowout at the Los Angeles Coliseum in 1980. Blew my mind! What a great show. Black Sabbath with Dio, The Baby's, Journey, Cheap Trick. I think we smoked an ounce of weed that day.
I saw these guys in the old Liberty Hall in Houston Tx back in 78..there was a fist fight in the first couple of rows..just what you would expect at a MH show
i saw these guys in Nov. of '79 at the Norfolk Scope in Norfolk, VA...a band called, "Point Blank" ("You Been Mean to Your Queenie") opened up for them...that was my first rock concert experience...
i first heard this song on a 'mix-tape' that i found at school back in the 10th grade, i've always preferred this version to the Allman Brothers' version...i didn't know that 'Hatchet did this tune until sometime in the early to mid 80's (LOL)...
Sorry jnchpl....not bad..but better than the Allman Brothers ..are you out of your mind ????? All SOUTHERN ROCK BANDS PALE IN COMPARISON TO THE ORIGINAL ALLMAN BROTHERS LINEUP WITH DUANE !!!!!!
@jnchpl THIS SONG WILL BE YOUR TOP TEN BEST EVER ROCK RELEASE FROM THE 70S BAND CALLED STILLWATER WAS FIRST ON THE SCENE THEN CAME MOLLY HATCHEST SUPPORTING THAT VERY SAME SOUND STILLWATER FROM GEORGIA MOLLY HATCHET FROM FLORIDA
@BOBAABAILEY , Still water did not do this song is a Allman Bros song Stillwater did Mindbender, and I reserve the Right and Molly hatchet was defintly doing things before Stillwater... Your getting this From a Warner Robins boy that grew up in the Middle of all this.
@Burythneedle Man...I feel like such an idiot now...I have loved this song since I first heard it by Molly Hatchet but never realized it was an Allman Bros cover
too bad Greg Allman turned out to be a rat (snitch) but that aside Danny Joe Brown does this tune justice. DJB one of rocks truly great vocalist. what a voice! He is genuinely missed by his fans and may he RIP. WHEREVER HE IS I KNOW HE'S SINGIN' HIS ASS OFF!
@shakey32509 Dickie betts is still alive, infact he just release a video on youtube teaching people how to play Rambling Man. Dickie's still alive, and yes he is still singing his ass off.
dave4248- Are you stoned or mentally challenged? For example when someone says an album cover is the"sickest" they ever saw or a motorcycle is the "sickest" bike they ever saw, it's American vernacular or 'slang' if you will for the most awesome album cover or absolute best motorcycle they ever saw, understand? So of course he likes the songs as well? If English is your second language then you just received a free lesson in the American language and it's colloquialisms!
@dave4248 I love this song but somehow you just don't get it, and try to talk shit by making dumbass statements like, "yeah a VERY CUTE girls ass." which means??? You were too stupid to understand the song ends at 7:09 and that I don't like it when it ends, holy shit, I dont want it stop, HELLO??? ...and yeah I curse a lot (two words) because stupid mother fuckers like you talk shit to people like me for no fucking reason, which is exactly what you did, so you deserve an earful...
@dave4248 Apparently you don't know that this is an Allman brothers tune written by Gregg Allman himself; and apparently you don't speak English. Molly Hatchet is "covering" this tune, and its sick, and you agree with me that its badass, so why the fuck are you still arguing with me? Face it man, you starting talking shit to me for no reason and if you haven't realized that by now, well sir, I am afraid you cannot be helped. So, no I'm not schizophrenic your just a dumbass, a colossal dumbass
@ptm5150 It is not taht he doesn't speak English...it's that he doesn't speak STREET English. Clearly, he doesn't understand that in the modern parlance, the term "sick" means MOST EXCELLENT and is more synonomous with the term "BAD ASS" than the dictionary definition with which dave4248 seems to be most familiar.
Lighten up both of youse and enjoy the tunes. I am sure burytheneedle posted it for people to find COMMON GROUND, not partake of the vitriole of the day.
@cyberties Why did you write me? This issue has been over for a few weeks, so why the fuck are you bringing it up again? Why the fuck are promoting political correctness? What the fuck do you have against free speech? Why use the word vitriol if you don't know how to spell it? My advice to you: shut your god damned mouth and mind your own fucking business...
@ptm5150 Dude...why the nasty attitude? Can't you be civil and refrain from the use of the "F" word? It only serves to define the level of your ignorance. It's not about being "politically correct" since we weren't discussing politics or anything remotely political. People who use these forums to spout their political diatribes,or just get nasty with people for trying to enlighten them, need to get a life. What's your real name? Jerad Loughner?
@mscottc1964 God damn, you are as dumb as the come. Let me spell it out for you. When I say the 7:09 sucks ass? That's my way of saying it sucks ass when the music stops, because this is one of the sickest cover tunes ever produced. Do you understand now? That was a painfully stupid mistake on your part. I don't even know who the fuck Justin Bieber is, but thanks to your dumbass I do now, so what the fuck does that say about you?
@ptm5150 A rational interpretation of your post "sucks ass" is negative, but clearly from your angry, hateful rant rational thinking is beyond your meager social skills and maturity. Sorry the Justin Bieber fan club rejected your numerous applications, and that your career at McDonalds stalled out at fries. Your response showed your level of class - ZERO. P.S. 3 Words - Anger Management Classes. P.S.S. No thanks, don't want fries with that.
I grew up in Florida and have seen Molly Hatchet a few times. They are a great Southern Rock band. Danny Joe Brown (now deceased) was a great vocalist with his gutteral voice. "Gator Country", "Bounty Hunter", and "The Creeper" are all good songs from this same album. I have it and listen to it often.
@Gudanks No, it just means that you have an ear for good music, regardless of fads and trends - past or present. A good song is like a national anthem: no matter how old it is, or how old you are, or how many times you hear it, it still resonates in you soul and just makes you feel good inside. Cheers.
this band got looked over cause there was so many great bands at this time , i mean look skynyrd rossington collinsband neil young ect and so on but truely all time great bands here
Use to spend a lot of time hanging out at an older friend's house after school. He was the town music/pot head. He knew his smoke and knew his music too. His parents had an old house that sat out back behind their newer one. They let him move into it when he was 15. He decorated his walls with old album covers and huge music posters. Smoked quite a few fatties while hanging out and listening to Hatchet with him. Good memories!
Molly Hatchet was the first concert I ever went to about 1980. It was at the CU event center and Jethro Tull was the band they backed up in Boulder Colorado. MH was amazing and out did Ian Anderson. I met everyone in the band earlier in the day and got all of their autographs with my buddy Gigot on the Pearl Street Mall in front of Independent Records. Molly Hatchet's debut album is only comparable to Boston's debut. This is the music we listen to when we ski in Colorado.
@terrafirma91 Well I know that The Allman Bros. Band Wrote this song in 1969, but I'm not quite sure when Molly Hatchet covered it, it sounds early to mid-1970's... if i had to guess...
I heard this today on the radio and recognized it immediately! Haven't heard this particular hit of theirs in years. They usually play Gator Country or Flirtin With Disaster, so it was really nice to hear this. And thanks to you for posting this so I could hear it again. :)
I SAW MOLLY HATCHET AT CHICAGO FEST ONE YEAR WITH SEVERAL OTHER GREAT BANDS , THIS SONG HERE AT THAT TIME WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST HITS THAT EVER PLAYED ON THE RADIO DURING THE SEVENTIES, GOD DOES IT BRING BACK SOME WILD MEOMORIES, AND A VERY FOXY CHICK I WAS WITH, WE WERE COOKIN AT THIS CONCERT....... ENJOY IT DON'T GET MUCH BETTER
74.....yes it is, Frank Frazetta, he was really hot at this time with Conan The Barbarian comics.

@Burythneedle : Okay. '69 for the Allman Brothers, and '78 for MH. Very similar sound between the two groups. Thanks for the information.

@terrafirma91 Well I know that The Allman Bros. Band Wrote this song in 1969, but I'm not quite sure when Molly Hatchet covered it, it sounds early to mid-1970's... if i had to guess...

I heard this today on the radio and recognized it immediately! Haven't heard this particular hit of theirs in years. They usually play Gator Country or Flirtin With Disaster, so it was really nice to hear this. And thanks to you for posting this so I could hear it again. :)

Loved this song since I first heard it, seen them play it three times live once in each decade.
I think we all have a mountian to climb to find ourselves then we come back full of renewed strength and focus and kick some ass.
rock on!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love this version. For whatever reason, I always thought the Allman Brothers' version too slow on tempo, but Hatchet's version got it right.

One of the most underrated, underplayed classics of all time. But that's what keeps it so good all these years.

@Templar4Ever wish I could find a good quality Allman's Dreams video on YouTube. Although I like Molly Hatchet's cover.
