“gimme back my bullets”

.

.

(working title: “ain’t no dowd about it”)
(a nod to 1 of the band’s ‘idols’)
(producer ‘tom dowd’)
(major innovator in the ‘recording arts’)

(‘1925’ – ‘2002’)
(i do recall ‘bergblum’ mentioning a documentary about him)

(that should’ve been his ‘role model’ of sorts)

.

*SIDE 1*

“GIMME BACK MY BULLETS”

(“and then what…?)

(“or else… “)
(…or else what?)
(will you shoot me with the very bullets i hand ove

“EVERY MOTHER’S SON”

“TRUST”

“I GOT THE SAME OLD BLUES”
(“not again!”)

.

*SIDE 2*

“DOUBLE TROUBLE”

“ROLL GYPSY ROLL”

“SEARCHING”

“CRY FOR THE ‘BAD MAN'”

“ALL I CAN DO IS WRITE ABOUT IT”

.

(“gimme back my bullets” is lynyrd skynyrd’s 4th studio album)

(it was released on ‘2 february 1976’)

(it reached #20 on the ‘american albums chart’)

(the album was certified ‘gold’ on ’20 january 1981′ by the RIAA)
(by that time, they’d already ‘crashed and burned’…)
(‘no..literally…’)

“don’t shoot!”
(‘many a man’s purported”last words” on ‘planet earth’)

“…almost as common as ‘mommy’!”
(“final maternal cry”)

(the album was originally titled ain’t no dowd about it’, in tribute to the producer ‘tom dowd’, whom the band idolized)

(cuz it sure ain’t exactly ‘maureen’ that them there good ole boys were name-droppping)

(what an absolutely lame-brained album title that would’ve been)
(then again, this is a band who gave us ‘boneheaded confederate nursery rhymes’ like “gimme three steps”)

(it remains the only ‘studio album’ by the ‘pre-crash lineup’ (ha!) to have not yet reached ‘platinum’ or higher in the ‘united states’)

(however, it did include the hits “gimme back my bullets”, “searching”, “double trouble”, and “cry for the bad man”)

(those ;song titles’ alone make me cringe in anticipation of the ;’good ole (white)boy’ trope)

(after stealing the music of the 1 black man they ever collectively encountered)

(‘dinosaur junior’ frontman ‘j mascis’ covered the song “every mother’s son” on his 1996 solo album “martin + me”)

(as for me, i don’t believe i’ve ever heard a single song from this album)

(what?…no more ‘hits’?)

(what the hell happened?)
