Southern Rock/Classic Rock songs and bands
I searched, but I only saw "Music", but nothing specific.
What are some of your favorite southern rock and classic rock music/bands?
Ex: of southern rock groups would be Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Doobie Brothers before Michael McDonald etc.
Steely Dan--Love
The Doobie Brothers
The Steve Miller Band--Love
70s Chicago
America (Tin Man)
38 Special
Eagles--Love
Ozark Mountain Daredevils
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tv2JaNDGfJ0 THE BEST! I love this song SO much! 
I love Hotel California too.
There's more, but I'm sure I'll see what's missing as people post.

The three, all of whom are still in the band, have received a National Citation and in 2009 were named Signature Sinfonians, our highest award for alums who have brought honor to the Fraternity through a high standard of accomplishment in their profession or commitment to service.
Meanwhile:
The Allman Brothers
ZZ Top
The Grateful Dead

Journey. No one can do what they do lol.
Poison, for all their hot sticky sweetness.
Bon Jovi, seriously Living on a Prayer is enough.

You stole my answer with that second one. I still have some old 45's of theirs that were my parents.
Also, I like the Turtles. Very chill.
ETA: Led Zeplin is classic and you can't really go wrong with anything that has Eric Clapton's name on it.
Molly Hatchet was a Southern Rock band that used heavy metal style album artwork.

George Thoroughgood is not a favorite, but I always think of him with "Southern" rock.

MC, I had no idea they were members of Phi Mu Alpha. That's awesome! btw, what instrument(s) do you play?

Totally agree. I love Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. I totally forgot when Young joined them. It was originally Crosby, Stills and Nash. I don't know if anyone has Woodstock on DVD, but they performed their. Wooden Ships is my fav from them.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqLy-Ks8viw I love this song.

He is more blues rock I would say.
Also I would like to mention CCR. While they may not actually be from the south they are definitely southern rock style wise.

The Doobie Brothers
The Steve Miller Band
Chicago
America
Eagles
Tom Petty

Oh, and Chris Thomas King, even though he's more of a Blues artist.
And I think of Johnny Cash as a southern rock type, even though he's more mainstream country.
