Greetings Professor Celestine. This page is composed of potential grammatical and content edits to be made to this article "Southern rock". Bellow in iterative order will be the various potential edits and contributions to this article.

An editor in the talk section of the article pointed out a logical inconsistency in the introduction of the article. In which is said "many people feel that these important contributors" without before mentioning said contributors. As such it would be more legible if the "contributors" mentioned later in the article be mentioned prior to this statement. As such the introduction to this article ought to be "Southern rock bands have had a considerable impact in the development of American rock music in the twentieth century. Specifically bands such as ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and The Allman Brothers Band are not only notable contributors to southern rock, but moreover, have also often been very influential in American music in its entirety. With the aforementioned band Lynyrd Skynyrd often placing high on the Billboard Hot 100, with their most notable song "Sweet Home Alabama" peaking at position 8 in 1974 . ..."

An editor in the talk section of the article believes that ZZ Top is not an example of a southern rock band. It would be advisable to research the origins of southern rock bands and compare them to ZZ Top. Potentially resulting in the removal of references to ZZ top with post in the discussion section explaining its removal.
