Molly Hatchet-Flirtin´ With Disaster (1979)

Molly Hatchet always represented the heavier side of southern rock, despite being unfairly labeled on more than one occasion as a mere parody of the legendary Lynyrd Skynyrd. With "Flirtin' With Disaster", their second album, they solidified their position as one of the best acts of the second generation of southern rock, producing a monumental work that earned them several platinum records in the North American market. Dusty, boogie-rock-infused songs like "Whiskey Man", "It's All Over Now", "Let The Good Times Roll", and "Boogie No More" are interwoven with the catchy melodies of southern-tinged tracks like "Jukin' City", "Good Rockin' " and "Long Time", and the exhilarating heavy rock anthems like "Flirtin' With Disaster". The enormous success of this album opened doors for them to open concerts throughout the United States and Canada for groups such as AC/DC, Aerosmith, Journey, Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, UFO, The Who, and Rush, among many others.
