Mother REGIONAL MUSIC has always been the backbone of rock & roll. Chicago blues, Nashville country, Appellation bluegrass and Memphis soul are just a few examples. However, it wasn’t until the early 70s that, what was termed, Southern rock, first gained a foothold in the public’s wider consciousness. It was a highly stylised sound that hailed exclusively from the American South, leaning heavily on several influences and giving rise to a number of lauded acts, such as the Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet and... Blackfoot. Hailing from Jacksonville, Blackfoot’s rise to prominence was, like so many others, both slow and painful. Front man and leader Ricky Medlocke even left the band for a while to drum with an early incarnation of Lynyrd Skynyrd before reforming Blackfoot prior to the recording of their debut album for Island Records and moving over to the Epic label for this, their second, release. With three Native American Indians in their line-up, Blackfoot’s sound was part Lynyrd Skynyrd and part Led Zeppelin, helping to consolidate a style that would later springboard them to international acclaim in the 80s. Recorded at the famed Muscle Shoals studio in Alabama, with notable session musicians David Hood and Jimmy Johnson at the production helm, ‘Flyin’ High’ was originally released in 1976 and remains a terrific example of a band finding not only their style but also their future.
