About this album

Red Tape finds Atlanta Rhythm Section sharpening their Southern rock formula into a tighter, more polished statement. Released in 1976, the album builds on the band’s reputation for slick playing and melodic control, balancing radio-ready hooks with a distinctly Southern feel. Atlanta Rhythm Section were part of the era when regional rock could cross over to a national audience without losing its identity, and this record shows that balance clearly. With its blend of steady grooves, clean harmonies and sharp songwriting, Red Tape stands as a solid example of mid-70s Southern rock at its most controlled and commercially minded.
