Where We All Belong

1

Where We All Belong is the third album by the Marshall Tucker Band. Released in 1974, the double album consists of a studio album and a live album; the former focuses on progressive country songs, while the latter focuses on jazz rock and Southern rock jamming. Musician Charlie Daniels guests on two songs, one from each album.

Composition

Where We All Belong is a double album, consisting of a studio album and a live album. The staff writers of Classic Rock had differing opinions on where the style of the studio disc placed, with one writer opinining that, despite the band's status as a Southern rock group, the studio recordings were not Southern rock at all, but somewhat jazzy, commercial rock music, comparable to the band Chicago. Another staff writer within the same piece said that the studio recordings were progressive country. The live recording fits the categorization of Southern rock more definitively, as well as falling into the genre of jazz rock.

Reception

Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote for AllMusic, "Although it runs a little long, Where We All Belong captures the sound of The Marshall Tucker Band coming into its own". The staff of Classic Rock magazine gave the album a score of 6.88 out of 10 from 59 votes, with one writer opinining that the album was at its strongest in its rock and blues-oriented material, and at its weakest in its country songs.
