Southern Rock Opera is the third studio album by the American rock band Drive-By Truckers, released in 2001. Originally released as a double album covering an ambitious range of subject matter from the politics of race to 1970s stadium rock, Southern Rock Opera either imagines, or filters, every topic through the context of legendary Southern band Lynyrd Skynyrd.
For its 20th anniversary, a remixed and remastered deluxe edition has been released featuring a resequenced record as well as a third disc with multiple bonus tracks including a song - “Mystery Song” - that was recorded one night in Birmingham.
"In the process of re-mixing the original tracks for the album, we stumbled upon a mysterious track that was recorded late one night in Birmingham. None of us have any memory whatsoever of recording it. The song itself was never even written down, just made up on the spot while the tape was rolling. We’re calling it 'Mystery Song.' It’s actually a keeper.”
- Patterson Hood (Frontman)
