"Charlie Daniels does it all, from dead-on country ballads to bluegrass to gospel to rock & roll. In this collection, Daniels puts on his rock & roll hat and delivers another winning set. From "Bogged Down in Love with You" to "Powder Keg," Charlie, Taz, and the rest of the band stand and deliver. A great album by one of the best." (Allmusic)
"Right from the beginning, the makers of Rockpalast had a soft spot for featuring musicians who were little known in Germany but who were top acts in their home countries. Charlie Daniels was one of them. In autumn 1980, he and his band played a single concert at Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Germany. His first Charlie Daniels Band album "Honey In The Rock" dates from 1972. The beginning of his main musical direction: southern rock with distinct borrowings from country music. The concert opens with one of this album's songs, "Funky Junky", a sweeping and swinging song which wins the audience over right away. The band - in the typical southern rock line-up with two drum sets, bass, keyboard, and two guitars - plays for 90 minutes straight, including all their greatest hits. The musicians are true masters of harmony guitars - bringing Lynyrd Skynyrd to mind - as well as accomplished vocals, and brilliant slide guitars, not to mention Charlie's legendary country fiddle."

Plaat uit 1974 van de band die een grote hit had met 'The Devil Went Down To Georgia'. Ook hier die kenmerkende sound die een mengeling is van Allman Bros-achtige southern rock en traditionelere country, met dank aan Charlie's fiddle.
