Notes
Founding members of 38 Special, Jeff Carlisi, Don Barnes & Donnie Van Zant (guitars), Ken Lyons (bass), Jack Grondin (drums), and Steve Brookins (drums), all lived a few blocks away from each other. After touring relentlessly, in 1977 they signed a contract with A&M Records and released self-titled debut and second album Special Delivery through them. Unfortunately, although both were solid southern rock masterpieces, they failed to generate any remarkable sales.
