Disco de Charlie Daniels Band: “Full Moon”

This is the first CDB album to follow Million Mile Reflections, and it doesn't live up to that standard. But how good it! In America was called "red white and bull" by Rolling Stone, but they don't know Charlie's music. The same heart felt sentiments in his songs about the south or mountain tops, and horses can be heard when he sings about the good ole US of A. Tommy Crain contributes with Lonesome Boy From Dixie a driving rock song about a Civil War soldier. Taz's contribution No Potion For the Pain is a down and out blues song. Enjoyable listening!

Looking back this album came out during the heyday of southern rock. It fit the bill very well sliding right in with Lynyrd Skynrd, Molly Hatchet and the rest. "Lonesome Boy From Dixie" is a very good poster child song of the era. It's a good song but also describes the times. "In America" was written in response to President Carter's ineptitude but it is still a good song. "Legend Of Wooley Swamp" is the hit on this album and it's good and worth th price if you're wondering.

CDB shows their patriotism with In America. Lonesome Boy from Dixie is a good Civil War song. Carolina is a great song.
