Potliquor
Potliquor, or sometimes erroneously referred to as "Pot Liquor", was a 1970s rock group from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The band was formed by George Ratzlaff and Guy Schaeffer after the breakup of a successful cover band called "THE BASEMENT WALL". Like several other bands of the American South, their musical style was a synthesis of influences like Little Richard, Ray Charles, Jimmie Reed, and more leading them to become a part of the nascent Southern rock genre.
Potliquor released four albums plus a compilation album but had only one hit single written and sung by George Ratzlaff.
Potliquor was a top regional touring band during the early 1970s, and although they made several national tours with prominent rock groups of the time, they never became the headliner of their own tour, but did headline specific shows with some surprising opening acts, like ZZ Top, Aerosmith, and Billy Joel. The group suffered through internal conflicts after the death of their manager in 1973, and after several personnel changes, they were never able to recover the momentum built up through 1970-1973 to reach national prominence like some of the big name bands and individuals they performed with. The Allman Bros. Billy Joel, REO Speedwagon, Ray Charles, Lou Rawls, Aerosmith, Cactus, ZZ Top, BB King, Faces, Lou Rawls, and many more. They held the dubious distinction of being the only band booked to play the Fillmore West just before it closed forever. The promotional posters remain until now.
==Name==
Potliquor took its name from the term "pot liquor" which is the broth that is left after cooking vegetables and meats.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pot Liquor )〕 In the South, it is commonly drunk or otherwise used rather than being thrown away. While many argue that the traditional spelling of "potlikker" is correct, "pot liquor" has become the acceptable form. This was only one of many references to their region and state of origin that Potliquor made in their work.
