About
With their 40th anniversary at hand in 2013, legendary country band Alabama embarked on their first tour in more than a decade and released an officially endorsed tribute album titled "Alabama and Friends." The album features current country stars covering some of Alabama's country-rock classics -- including Kenny Chesney on "Lady Down on Love," Jason Aldean on "Tennessee River," Luke Bryan on "Love in the First Degree," and the Eli Young Band on "The Closer You Get" -- along with two new Alabama songs. It was a fitting tribute for the most successful band in country music history, which logged 34 singles that topped Billboard's country singles chart between 1980 and 2011 and has sold more than 75 million albums. The band's core remains the same as when it was founded in 1969, when they were known as Wildcountry: Randy Owen (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), his cousin Teddy Gentry (bass), and another cousin, Jeff Cook (lead guitar, keyboards, fiddle). By 1973, the trio had decided to pursue music full time and they signed their first record deal -- and changed their name to The Alabama Band at the label's request -- in 1977. By the '80s, the band had hit its stride, moving huge numbers of concert tickets and filling their trophy cases with multiple Grammy, CMA and ACM awards.

Alabama fantastic as always
by guiltyascharged on 9/4/11Tuscaloosa Amphitheater - TuscaloosaRating: 5 out of 5So glad to be able to see "Alabama" reunited for a full concert. They are always amazing and it was obvious they were fan favorites still!
Alabama was awesome!!
by melissajoe91187 on 9/4/11Tuscaloosa Amphitheater - TuscaloosaRating: 5 out of 5I listened to Alabama growing up. My first vehicle only had an 8 track player, I had an Alabama 8 track tape of them and baby I wore that thing out. This was the first time I have ever gotten to see Alabama live in concert. I tell ya it might be 20 something years since I listened to that 8 track but baby they sounded great just like they did back then. I throughly enjoyed it!!
Alabama in Alabama was Amazing!!

Alabama will always be THE BEST !
by Dkeevan on 9/4/11Tuscaloosa Amphitheater - TuscaloosaRating: 5 out of 5I never get tired of seeing my boys perform. They are now, as they have always been, great entertainers. Tuscaloosa was my 86th show and I have never witnessed them give less than a stellar performance. Most of all they truly care about helping others as was proven by this concert. Thank you guys for 30 years of remarkable memories.

Alabama was Great.
by matthewcrimson on 9/4/11Tuscaloosa Amphitheater - TuscaloosaRating: 5 out of 5My wife and I had an amazing night out that helped our community. This was our first event at the new amphitheater and we were very excited about what we saw. And with the overall atmosphere we will be back. And we will definitely be looking to see Alabama take the stage again.
