Play That Rock n' Roll: Molly Hatchet, Part One: The Original Lineup (1978 - 1990)
This is Part One of Play That Rock n' Roll's retrospective about the legendary Southern Rock band, Molly Hatchet. In this episode, we cover the early days of the band, their connections to Lynyrd Skynyrd, and how they broke through with "Flirtin' with Disaster". We also discuss why lead singer Danny Joe Brown left for a solo career in the early '80s, how the band carried on without him, what brought them all back together, and how the original lineup of the band closed out the decade. We will discuss the band's rebirth and current status in Part 2.
To give further insight into some of the topics covered, I have included clips from conversation with Kerrang! magazine writer Xavier Russell, who covered Molly Hatchet extensively in the early '80s.
