I grew up listening to southern rock and this is some of the best I have heard. Highly recommend this album and all others they produce.

I bought this from one of the band members last week.  Reminds me of early Black Crowes.  This is a great album of southern rock/country rock songs.  My favorites are Big Muddy and Blackwater River.  There are some awesome leads in these that will speak to your soul.  Great lyrics and twin guitar leads ala Allmans and Skynyrd.  Play this in your pickup truck while riding down the dirt roads and drinking a beer.  Long live The 484 South Band!  Ye-haw!

I don't always like Southern Rock just because it's Southern Rock. It has to be good music. THIS IS GREAT! Sounds like they wrote the songs from the gut rather than from the head. I could easily fit SOUTHBOUND or I KNOW A LITTLE in with this CD and not skip a beat. So I recommend you give it a listen and buy one. Don't let this group ride off into the sunset cause i want to hear a second CD worth of music.

Highlights: 
The Road -  A sad and lonely tale with a great organ lightly setting the mood in the background.
Blackwater River - If you don't love the guitars and story in this one, you're obviously not from the South.
Baton Rouge - 70's quirky that screams to be heard in concert with hundred's screaming the chorus out with the band.
Mississippi - A more up-to-date indie Southern Rock. Great guitars and I love the line, "Yeah, I been kicking back laughin'". Just hits a chord with me.

Like an old pair of work boots that just seem to never lose their feel,  the 484 South Band's Mississippi Nights grabs you in way that feels like home.  A testament to the rural South, and the decades of influence that real Southern Pride cultivates,  Mississippi Nights is both familiar and new to the fan of roots rock.  A collection that plays just as well in Tennessee as it does in Louisiana, Mississippi Nights takes the listener to a place we all have known, and makes him feel the South.   If you like Cat hats, mud flaps, and drinking beer outdoors, you have a new friend in The 484 South Band.
