I think that after reading your argument I am gonna go out tomarrow and buy a new copy of Skynard’s album. I think I can honestly say that you have at least made the issue of the songs racist intent questionable. You have given me a reason to get off my high horse and listen to a song I always secretly loved. Of everything I have experienced at SDMB I appreciate your comments the most. Thank you.[wish there was a smiley for sincerity]

Like I said, I still have my doubts, so it’s a relief just to know that somebody at least partially swallows my argument. The way you describe it fits me to a T- it’s like I need validation to listen to the song in peace. Thanks for the kind words, and make sure you get an album that has “The Ballad of Curtis Lowe” on it- that’s the one about the bluesman, and at least to me, it proves that this guy’s heart is in the right place.

I noticed it says “Guest” under you name. You need a sponsor? Cause I will gladly do it for a guy who made me reevaluate my opinion about something. Or planing on leaving?

Wow. That’s a really nice gesture on your part. Actually, I’m planning on staying. I paid via PayPal and apparently it takes a few days for the funds to clear my account and get to the Reader’s, so I’m a guest until such time as that goes through (and I can’t search, dammit!) So, thank you immensely, but I’ve already got that taken care of. The offer means a great deal, however.

You’re welcome, and I am glad you’ll be around. If you really want search something just let me know, I’ll do it.

What the hell was this thread about? I can’t remember… 😃
