18 years old and completely shocked...
I grew up on southern rock...
Thankfully for you tube, watching most bands from that era are a click away...
Funny story...one of my grand kids had me listen to a great new song he found....
“Free bird”

Had the same thing happen with my son when he was in 10th grade about 10 yrs ago. Wanted me to hear this very 'rad' song by this new band he found.."Stairway to Heaven"

I said, "Ah, m'boy...you have much to learn. Come with me and let's listen to Ol' Dad's vinyl albums for a while and listen to some old Southern Rock. You'll be amazed at how derivative most of the music you listen to is."
He started playing guitar very soon thereafter...using Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers as inspiration and models. He is very, very good these days and writes his own stuff.
