Performer: Molly Hatchet
Producer: Terry Manning; Tom Werman; Bruce Dickinson (Compilation) Distributor: Sony Music Distribution ( Notes: Molly Hatchet includes: Danny Joe Brown (vocals). Recording information: 1978-1984. Photographer: David Gahr. Super Hits is a budget-priced ten-track collection that actually features Molly Hatchet's three biggest hits -- "Flirtin' with Disaster," "The Rambler," "Satisfied Man" -- along with a number of album tracks like "Bounty Hunter," "Gator County," "Fall of the Peacemakers" and "Dead Giveaway." It's not quite as strong or cohesive as Greatest Hits, but it may satisfy the needs of casual fans, who will simply want all these songs on one disc. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
At the tail end of the 1970s, when Southern rock's popularity seemed to be waning, a new generation of Dixie outlaws appeared, and Molly Hatchet led the charge. The hard-rocking Southern boogie band released its first album in 1978, but it was the '79 follow-up, FLIRTIN' WITH DISASTER, that made the band a major name. Shortly thereafter, singer Danny Joe Brown quit the group, and was replaced for a couple of albums by Jimmy Farrar before finally returning for 1983's NO GUTS...NO GLORY. Though Brown and guitarist Duane Roland died in the mid-2000s, the band never stopped performing.
