Atlanta Rhythm Section - Back Up Against The Wall
Review by 怪 鳥
Back Up Against The Wall is the sixth studio album by the Atlanta Rhythm Section, released in 1973. The album features a mix of Southern rock, country rock, and blues rock, showcasing the band's versatility and musicianship.
The album kicks off with the upbeat and catchy "I'm Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The band's signature harmonies and tight instrumentation are on full display throughout the album, particularly on tracks like "Another Man's Woman (It's So Hard)" and "Angel (What in the World's Come Over Us)."
One standout track is the bluesy "Funky Music," which features a groovy bassline and soulful vocals from lead singer Ronnie Hammond. The album's title track, "Back Up Against The Wall," is a slower, more introspective song that showcases the band's songwriting abilities.

Everything Kenny Lane said and more. I loved this song already as a teen. Then I got my 1st kiss from my 1st love while this song played on the radio, so naturally I've loved it ever since!
ARS. The Best.
I love these ole' song's..They never get old. Rock n Roll ! Miss the 70's......
Love Ronnie Hammond
I have loved everything I have ever heard from Atlanta Rhythm Section since I was a kid, but this is the first time I've heard this song and I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!
The weird thing is that when the live version came out several years later I was certain I'd heard the song, but nobody I knew had. It just now hit me- I'd heard this version played on a local, rebel radio station in Augusta, GA (144 mi from Atlanta).
R.I.P. Ronnie...?
Who's Travis Tritt?
I saw ARS at a community festival around 2000; long after their heyday but the admission price was right. They still really could play, and cooked with this song in their opening set.
I remember seeing the ARS show at the Fox in Atlanta on New Year's Eve 1977: Great show!
great rythm great vibes
@tripjet999 Yep. That's where this one came from. Thanks for listening.
Love this music
Glad you posted this. They recorded a live version they used to play on the radio.
Great !! Thanks for posting this great ARS classic !!
