The Greatest Non Hits
Driving and Cryin: Fly Me Courageous
Embark on a musical adventure with us as we unearth the hidden gems of Driving and Cryin's "Fly Me Courageous." With the two of us lending our wit and wisdom to the conversation, we're peeling back the layers of this pivotal '90s album, leaving the hits on the shelf to shine a light on the tunes that truly make the heart of Southern rock throb. From the band's intertwining history with The Black Crowes to Kevin Kinney's distinctive vocals, prepare to rank and revel in the tracks that set the scene for a generation.
Our chat veers into the therapeutic realms of beachside musings and the simple joys of barbecues and natural cocoa beans, all while tipping our hats to musical icons and dissecting genre-blending sounds. We're not just talking music here; we're talking about the art of healing through lyrics, the inspirations that drive artists to create, and the profound cultural moments that songs can capture. It's a roundabout conversation that's as rich and surprising as a hidden track on your favorite album.
Then we get down to brass tacks in our musical review, discussing what makes a song resonate with fans and the eclectic nature of a band that defies easy labels. As we consider the energy that fuels their performances and the cultural pride they evoke, we can't help but wish for that extra dash of cowbell. So, grab your headphones, and let's celebrate the enigmatic allure of Driving and Cryin together, with plenty of laughs, debates, and shared love for the songs that soundtrack our lives.
All right, thank you for listening to the Greatest Non-Hits. I'm Chris, and playing the song for you on Driving and Cryin' fourth studio album, fly Me Courageous, is my co-host, tim. Thank you for listening. This is an album by the band Driving and Cryin'. This is probably our last Atlanta band for a while, but nevertheless this is probably our last Atlanta band for a while, but nevertheless they're a creation from the mid-80s and this album was released in 1991. The band's been around for a long time I think their lead singer, kevin Kinney, is touring solo at the moment but nevertheless, a blast from the past. This album is probably the band's most commercially successful release to date. 1991, around this time early 1991, was the start of the Persian Gulf War and even though the title track had a patriotic chord to it, I think it started to resonate with a lot of people. So it was an album. In 1995, it went gold. So anyway, we're going to listen to the whole album in its entirety and then rank all the songs With the exception of the hits. I think we're just going to make Fly Me Courageous the one hit. I think. Another one was listed as a single, maybe Around the Block again.
Speaker 2:The band had a couple of big songs prior to this, from the album Mystery Road, which I think was the third studio album. It came out in 89. And this is when they started to gain a lot of momentum. This is a really good A couple of the songs Straight to Hell and the other one, the other big one from that one, honeysuckle Blues. That's right, honeysuckle Blues. Anyway, two really good songs. But on this album I'm going to say the title track, find Me Courageous, is going to be the one hit. Everything else is. We're going to listen to all of them, rank them and rank the top three, as we always do, but in the middle is where all the fun happens.
Speaker 2:We're going to listen to some sound clips.
Speaker 2:We're going to play all the songs. We're going to yuck it up. We're going to talk to Tim. He's going to give us his thoughts. This is a band I've been following since around this time and I haven't listened to them in years, but they just popped back into my memory and I just thought this would be a great time for us to listen to this, re-listen to it, and it brings back memories for me. And Tim's listened to it. I mean, it's no talk, talk for him, but he likes it. I think we're going to listen to everything. Like I said, he's going to listen to everything. Like I said, he's going to chime in. We're going to listen a little bit here.
Speaker 2:I think an important thing to know about this band is they have a lot of overlapping with a couple of other bands that we've done podcasts on, most notably black crows. Jeff sullivan, drums, percussion, played drums on the mr crows, whatever. This the the iteration of black crows. Before they became the black crows, he was the drummer for that band. He performs drums on this album. Buren Fowler, guitar player. He was a guitar tech for REM. He later left them to join up with Kevin Kinney, originally from Milwaukee. I think all these guys are from the South, with the exception of Kevin Kinney. He's from Milwaukee, the Wisconsin area.
Speaker 2:And let's see Tim Nielsen bass. They had another original lineup, we don't have to get too deep into that, but on this album, George Marino.
Speaker 3:Tim.
Speaker 2:Superglue Ray assistant engineering. I should make that your nickname Superglue. That's Tim's last name, tim Superglue. Jeff Workman engineering production. Us Billboard. I'm getting all this from Wikipedia. It peaked at 90 on the US Billboard 200. Build a Fire. That's right, it was a single. Actually, Build a Fire went higher on the charts than Fly Me Courageous did Okay. I mean we can take that one off the table. Sure, why not? The Innocent was number 31 on US Mainstream Rock. Fly Be Courageous is 19.
Speaker 1:Let's see what else we got here.
Speaker 2:I saw a good documentary on them a couple years ago. I think he busted his nose. I think, kevin Kinney. That's how he has his unique and distinct voice. I think it gives the band a little bit of character. I think Tim's doing Zorba the Greek. Now I'm not sure what that is. Let him finish up, alright, alright, so all right, all right, so we're in when he packs. You know he's gonna. He's packing it in, he's coming back. He's scurrying back, dropped his guitar pick. He's adjusting his mic. He's getting all ready. He can't wait. You know, he's just he's getting it all together. Adjusting the chair. Before we go any further, we do have a sponsor Again. Makoko is going to be our sponsor. All natural cocoa beans from the upper slopes of Mount Nicaragua. No artificial sweeteners, tim. How you doing bud?
Speaker 4:I'm doing well. I'm doing well.
Speaker 2:Good.

Speaker 4:Yeah, that little jam was for you.
Speaker 2:We've been waiting for you All right. That's what they were saying about the eclipse. They're like I'm so tired of waiting for you to come around the universe.
Speaker 4:Yeah, great album. I mean. I think it's got a lot of hooks, it's got a. It's kind of like a surfer Southern jam jam going on here.
Speaker 2:I'd agree.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Southern rock yeah, it's southern rock, yeah, there's there's like hints of like breakups and war and all kinds of stuff there's war well, there's that whole. I don't what is that. We're just I don't know what. There's some sort of a weird thing on this instagram I'm sorry, follow us on instagram.
Speaker 4:Greatest sound hits on instagram.
Speaker 2:There you go exactly um, yeah no, we're uh no I was gonna say this was written during well, they know it was green was the rem tour in 88 okay uh, driving and crying opened up for them. So they were pushing Mystery Road and they're opening up for REM, for their green tour, orange Crush, and then the war was coming on, saddam had done his thing, or whatever, and so fast forward to 91 and it's operation.
Speaker 4:Get your VCRs out, yeah.
Speaker 2:Schwarzkopf, desert Storm, storm, that kind of thing. And this was sort of like a find me courageous, was like a big uh, like a pro war anthem in a way. Even I don't think they intended it that way, but it just sort of mother america is brandishing her weapons. She keeps me safe and warm by threats and misconceptions. So and it was like a. It was sort of uh, I don't know kind of playing both sides of it maybe, or I think they were clearly on the against side right reality well, yeah, most people, most people are, but I mean it was at the time we considered it was.
Speaker 2:You know it was a righteous thing at that point. You know, things kind of gone south, went down south sort of after 91, but yeah, at the time it was, and then kevin had a.
Speaker 4:Kevin has a bunch of uh name tags and hairnets himself.
Speaker 3:Okay doesn't he?
Speaker 2:uh, he was working for a sewage a sewage plant uh, well, yeah, at the beginning of their career, like in 86. I think he was working at a sewage plant in Milwaukee. He meets a guy.
Speaker 5:Poop again.
Speaker 2:He meets a guy named Mark French or something, or Fred French.
Speaker 4:Fred French. That sounds like a cartoon name? I don't know Kevin. Kevin's out there, yeah.
Speaker 2:Well, anyway, that's what leads them to Tim Nielsen, the bass player, Paul Lenz.
Speaker 4:They move to Atlanta shout out to those MARTA riders out there, get on that MARTA that's right.
Speaker 2:So they were in the Atlanta underground scene from probably like 85 86 and then 87 88. They, you know, hook up the REM little five points. You know five points exactly. Anyway, this was like sort of like the top of the mountain for them. Yeah, a little, five points Exactly. Anyway, this was sort of like the top of the mountain for them. We're going to listen to it. Any last words before we dig in. That's for you, tim.
Speaker 4:Do we have any words?
