I was coming to post this. His music is considered the prototype for Southern Rock.
It appears the term was coined in reference to an Allmand Brothers concert in 1972 in an underground Atlanta paper called "The Speckled Bird".
That's all I got.

Not southern, but worth mentioning. More like original Eagles.

The Bakersfield sound influenced the eagles.

The Eagles are direct descendants of The Byrds. In fact their stated goal at the beginning was to "avoid the mistakes the Byrds made."

It was coined in 1972 by Mo Slotin who wrote for the Atlanta's underground newspaper called the Great Speckled Bird.

Going even further back listen to The Maddox Brothers & Rose. Their "George`s Playhouse Boogie" (1949) has all the hallmarks of rockabilly.

1947 move it on over by Hank Williams which sounds similar to Rock around the clock by Bill Haley.

It's a long read, but tells the rest of the story. . .

Good read. Thanks. It fits right in with the Laurel Canyon documentary.
It sounds like Poco only had themselves to blame. If you can't be united as a group and are ate up with jealousies, it's not meant to be. They sound as fricked up as Henley and Frey which is saying something.

You get my point, though.
