I cannot for the life of me think of it.. it's from the era of the eagles, charlie daniels, etc..


so.. throw out some names please!



EDIT:

lynard skynard... thought of it... thanks!


EDIT AGAIN:!

CRAP! that's not it either!! arg. I can't think of any lyrics... I *think* the album had a white flying horse on the cover... I think.. but I thought that was the eagles, and it's not the band/singer I'm trying to figure out



EDIT AGGGGGGGGGAIN:

It's the ballad of curtis lowe - lynard skynard... thanks!!!


EDIT once more!

oldsmoboat thought of the other one.. steve miller...

keep on rockin me baby..
the joker...


they're all coming back to me... arg where can I buy the cd? Wonder if best buy would have something this old?

Do you have any idea how many bands there were then?? What type of music...do you remember some lyrics? What did they sound like? Was the lead singer a guy/girl???

Yes, of course Best Buy would have The Steve Miller Band. Do you have any sense of the history of rock n'roll?
