I own one Black Crowes record - "The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion." I like it quite a bit (I'm a sucker for southern guitar rock), though others may have more informed recommendations.

Another from Pavement ("Stereo"): What about the voice of Geddy Lee How did it get so high? I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy? (I know him and he does)

The Smithereens' "Wall of Sleep" references Bill Wyman.

The Dandy Warhols "Cool as Kim Deal."

He also wrote a hilarious song about Don Henley ("Don Henley Must Die").

Pavement's "Range Life" roasts Smashing Pumpkins and Stone Temple Pilots.

A song that haunted me in high school, "The South's Gonna Do it Again" by The Charlie Daniels Band is a who's who of 1970's Southern Rock -- Marshall Tucker Band, Skynyrd, Dickie Betts, Elvin Bishop, ZZ Top, Wet Willie and Barefoot Jerry. And now I won't be able to get that song out of my head.

A couple more that came to me this morning: Richard Thompson's "Guitar Heroes" is an homage to Django Reinhardt, Les Paul, Chuck Berry, James Burton and Cliff Richard & The Shadows. X mentions a host of punk bands on " I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts" (Minutemen, Flesh Eaters, DOA, Big Boys and Black Flag).

^^^ Love that Minutemen song! Good choice.

Drive-By Truckers are the champions. Much of the classic double album "Southern Rock Opera" tracks the rise and fall of Lynyrd Skynyrd and includes a song partly about Neil Young ("Ronnie and Neil"), another which name checks Mollie Hatchet, Blue Oyster Cult and AC/DC ("Let There Be Rock") and a third ("Factory") which references The Who. They also wrote songs about GG Allin ("The Night GG Allin Came To Town"), George Jones ("George Jones Talkin" Cell Phone Blues") and Sam Phillips, Carl Perkins, Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis ("Carl Perkins' Cadillac"). Lynyrd Skynyrd responded to Neil Young

Saw "Once Upon A time in Hollywood" over the weekend and liked it quite a bit. Not nearly as shockingly violent as every other Tarantino movie. I also watched "Rolling Thunder Revue" and loved it. Finally, I finished Season One of both "City on a Hill" (they killed my wife's cousin, dammit!!) and Killing Eve.

Wow. Those are the exact same track lengths of the songs on Nebraska!!! Ok, I made that up.
