My point was that Molly Hatchet with fewer than three guitar players
onstage is...well, just not right. It doesn't live up to one's
expectations. I'm plenty familiar with their stuff, by the way. They
were never a patch on Skynyrd, but who was? Hatchet's first couple of
albums were about as good as the genre got if your band's name wasn't
Lynyrd Skynyrd. I keep expecting to see a southern rock revival at some
point, though despite noble attempts by the likes of Raging Slab and
Pride and Glory, I don't think it's gonna happen.
Saw Marshall Crenshaw open a show at the Paradise in '92 with a
bitchin' cover of "Flirtin' With Disaster," by the way.
