They still hold the crown, and I don't see anybody on the horizon that's capable of taking it. Unlike rock-n-roll, the majority of country music acts seems to be individuals with great backing bands. Alabama is basically the Beatles of country. Their songs are, pound for pound, better than other country groups, they kept coming out with great hits year after year, and their music will stand the test of time. They're just simply the greatest band in country music history.
Simply the Best they don't make country music like this no more I hope I get to see them before they retire for good . Love You ALABAMA GOD BLESS YOU .
I've grew up with this group as a fan. They are nothing but the very best all the time. Nothing can EVER come close to them. Alabama, you are the greatest of all time, forever and always. Thank you for "Real Country."
Alabama is the best country band in the world...they're pure legends!! I was raised listening to them. Went to a few of their concerts. I love them so much!!!
Loved them ( SAW THEM AND BOUGHT A ALABAMA JACKET WHEN THEY VISITED PHOENIX) THEN AND LV THEM TODAY AND IM 75 NOW - THK U RANDY AND ALABAMA - GOD BLESS U ALL
You know what the way they're putting some country artists into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Alabama deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as well what do you all think
This is what I call Great country music. They might not have used the flashy lights, etc. that many do today, but their music is so powerful, it makes you go back to your younger days.
I walked two miles in the louisianna heat in 1983 to pick up front row seats to thier sold out concert. What a performance they gave, they spent 4 hrs signing autographs and taking pictures with thier fans. I treasure mine! Randy Owen will never be to old to be good!
Alabama played a show at my high school in the gymnasium before they hit it really big and the thing I remember most is the strong harmonies that they put out. I remember thinking how can 3 guys make it sound so strong? They were great! The show was in Lawrenceburg, TN.
This message is for Alabama band , it brought some tears to my eyes the night this was given to you , your the ones who did things right and earned this award the right way
Brought a tear to my eye. God I've missed ALABAMA!! .......Welcome back boyz!!!! You're exactly what country music needs today... PEOPLE WHO CAN PLAY & SING!!!
Saw them in the summer of '85 in Milwaukee,Wi. They had already gotten entertainer of the year 5 times in a row back then. What a concert!! Have been a fan both before and after that concert!
Alabama is still one of the greatest country bands to watch and listen to . They will never be forgotten no matter how old their songs get to be. 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Saw Alabama years ago. They were hot then and they still are. Their music is timeless now! And, my cousin Kimo is playing with them in the back! Yay! Love it!
In 1980 the radio DJ said check out these guys - it was Alabama, the song was Mountain Music - I was hooked - the next day went and had my parents by me their album - I wore it out...
I’ e had the pleasure of seeing them perform 5 times in my life and they have never failed to be the best group of real country music. Thanks, Alabama for your wonderful music.
Seen them live 3 times and its always a great show. Country music these days could learn alot from these guys. The greatest there is was and ever will be.
@@adriantomlin2902 can’t trust anything you see on the internet. I’ve seen Alabama live 3 times, the last being in October of 2021. They talked about Jeff, who was absent, and even sang a really touching tribute song they wrote for him. It’s called “Jeff’s song”, you can look it up here on RUclips.
Business is Business and sometimes its ugly. I followed these guys since 1980 and they haven't missed a beat. Say what you want but with out these guys country music would not be what it is today. Thanks for the chance to see y'all one more time guys, its been a hell of a ride.
Yeah, but don't forget about George Strait and Kenny Rogers have kept the standard high and longevity lengthy for just great country music. These 3 should stand the test of time even when you and I are long gone. Pure country!!
Alabama was so big in the early 80’s! They were continually on top of the charts from 1980 all the way to 1989!!! Great songs everyone knows by heart even if you don’t like country music! Great band!!!
I am a die hard "Rock" lover. I keep 3 CD's in my Truck of Rock's Greatest hit's. I have two CD's of "ALABAMAs" greatest hits in my CD player. These 5 CD's never leave my CD player. I still today love listening to Alabama as much as I like about 10 Rock Gods all time best CDs! Somedays it's a challenge as to what CD I am going to play. I have take several 20 hour road trips with ALABAMA blairing the entire time! Sometimes it's the ROCK CDs that are playing. It's just the mood I am in for the day. I have listened to all these songs since the early 80s and have NO intentions of stopping now. For ALABAMA to be singled out with no other country CDs is past amazing! I can think of about 10 Rock Bands I love. What's amazing is this one Country Band from Alabama stands alone in my World. We love you Randy, Teddy, and Jeff (RIP). Don't stop now as I am headed to the Tennessee River as we speak!
Well my husband and I raised our 3 children and nieces and nephews on country and grandchildren and their friends now I got a great grandson is growing up on country the all now love you and all the other country singers keep up the good songs always
awesome... nuff said.. Cant top that... From their first record.. "ALABAMA" is my #1 Country band of all time.. Gentlemen/Artists/Family men. Southern Gentlemen/Southern pride..
harmonics are off the chart's, they still sing the same pitch perfect, and the whole dam place gave them they respect they deserve with the standing ovation during the whole dam show.
My brother had Alabama and Elvis vinyl records in 1980 with a huge RCA turntable cabinet that had stereo speakers built in it. I used turn those round dials up and literally got lost in the music when I visited him. I jammed Alabama music loud and proud when I went to our high school prom in Palm Springs. My girlfriend LOVED it ; )
Alabama you're the greatest I'm from Montgomery grew up there and now live in Georgia but I'm still a true Alabama fan Roll Tide and also God bless you with good health love you guys
I'm not really into country music that much, but this is a group of incredible musicians who know how to sing to the soul. Got to see them live last year and still have great harmonies. Amazing.
No one sings like Randy Owen. ALABAMA will always be number one!!!!!
Nothing like Alabama will ever happen again. They came at the perfect time for music and they owned it…
Never more perfect words right there.
A once in a lifetime group. This sounds great this many years later.
Alabama is the greatest Country band to ever lay down a tune.
@Sergey Dmitruk Alabama is still the number one country band.
@Sergey Dmitruk Alabama with 41 number one hits vs Fgl with 18 number one hits
@@Jared-xf5xl yes they are !
@Sergey Dmitruk FGL is a duo not a group. And best duo will always be Brooks & Dunn
They actually have 43
2024 n still can’t get enough of Alabama. Those were the days
I agree!!! One of my favorites in the 90’s!!!!
Will never be anyone like them. RiP Jeff Cook

I saw Alabama when I was a teenager, they are the greatest country band ever!!!!?
I never get tired of listening to Alabama
One of the few times ACA had a real country artist onstage this century

Such a sad day in our little town, he will be missed by all. The hearts of our entire town go out to his family and the band !!
Still the greatest country band my deepest condolences and sympathy to the family of Jeff cook. 💗
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much ❤️ 💗 💖
Saw them at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. Was worth the trip. I treasure the tee shirt to this day! Now 73 but still love them
Loved them ( SAW THEM AND BOUGHT A ALABAMA JACKET WHEN THEY VISITED PHOENIX) THEN AND LV THEM TODAY AND IM 75 NOW - THK U RANDY AND ALABAMA - GOD BLESS U ALL
Amazing how awesome they sound live, that's real talent.

THEY BLEW EVERYONE OFF THE STAGE THAT NIGHT & EVERY NIGHT. ALABAMA BEST BAND OF ALL TIME.
Absolutely nobody there that night at those award show is fit to skip in their cowboy boots!! Guaranteed!
Where the hell is Mark Herndon??!! 😮🤔
And almost a decade later they are still kicking it. Saw them live for the first time 3 weeks ago
This is what I call Great country music. They might not have used the flashy lights, etc. that many do today, but their music is so powerful, it makes you go back to your younger days.
Rest in Peace Jeff Cook.
One of the greatest bands ever!!! Randy is so down to Earth but a superb entertainer!!! Love those guys!!!
❤️

Sounds like a super fan you must be. Walking 2 miles in hot Louisiana sun is more than I would have endured! I salute you!
I love how they get an immediate standing ovation!

Thats awesome. I like to stop by their museum in Fort Payne whenever I’m traveling on I-59. Military Veterans get free admission.

7HE W0LV3R!NE its southern rock
Always loved this band!! Time has been good to this band ! Still sound the same.
***** Look at Bon Jovi. No drugs or alcohol and they look great for their ages.
They are still one of the Greatest Bands ever.
I saw Alabama in 2004 and again in 2017 they were truly awesome.
Yall are my favorite band!
That voice will never get old :)
You're talking about Randy Owen I presume. There are 3 other singers in the group y'all know?
@@stevensmith8538 went way out on that limb to presume he was talking about the lead singer... good job
SO glad there back they are my youth .. it brings back a old feeling deep inside of being young and living life to the fullest!!
