Audio Remasterer: Andrew Thompson . Liner Note Author: Geoff Barton. Jacksonville's native sons rock hard once again with Deed Is Done; however, there is something missing this time around. The selection of songs fails to match the originality and intensity of the group's earlier work. While this is not necessarily a bad record, it is obviously lacking some of the old fire. Still, there are a few shining moments here, if you are willing to wade through the filler material. ~ Michael B. Smith
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.
