(MPG) 38 Special shares the video for their rollicking new single "So Much So Right," which appears on Milestone, their first album in 20 years. An infectious song that captures the spark of a new romance, its visual gives fans a front row seat to the legendary Southern rockers' latest shows as they enter their sixth decade together as a band. The video was featured at Glide Magazine who said, "38 Special is due for their documentary as the often-overlooked masters of Southern Rock."
"38 Special songs have always been about the genuine emotions experienced by everyone," says frontman Don Barnes. "They all have an element of truth in them that I think appeals on a universal level and proves why they have lasted through the years. 'So Much So Right' is unique. Every person remembers that heat of passion when they first met someone new and shared intimacy so strong that it could hardly be contained. Our take was simply to convey that overwhelming feeling of wanting and obsessing, longing for the opportunity to be together again."
On the visual: "The video itself was made in an interesting fashion. Nick Spanos was shooting behind-the-scenes scraps of video as well as concert footage. He took some risks in editing, kept it gritty like the song conveys ... and with the final tinted, grainy look, he succeeded in portraying what real rock 'n' roll should feel like."
"So Much So Right" follows the jangling "All I Haven't Said" and "Slightly Controversial" (feat. Train), both of which have surpassed one million streams across platforms. Marking the band's 50th anniversary, 38 Special's latest album Milestone features guests and co-writes with Pat Monahan (Train) and Randy Bachman (Bachman Turner-Overdrive / The Guess Who), and longtime collaborator Jim Peterik (Survivor, Sammy Hagar, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Cheap Trick). Upon its release, the record debuted in the Top 10 on both the Rock and Independent Album charts, and broke into the Top 30 of Billboard's Current and Overall Album Sales charts. To date, Milestone has garnered widespread acclaim from Ultimate Classic Rock, Stereogum, Parade Magazine, American Songwriter, Classic Rock and more.
More than 50 years together, 20 million albums sold and over 15 albums of guitar-driven southern rock - stacked high with hits like "Hold On Loosely," "Caught Up In You," "If I'd Been The One," "Back Where You Belong" and "Second Chance." 38 Special is proof that there's strength in numbers. Formed in 1974, the band toured tirelessly from the start, sharpening the explosive live show that's been 38 Special's calling card for a half-century. Along the way, the Florida natives fine-tuned their sound too: a blend of muscle and melody, filled with the arena-rock pop hooks that would soon become staples of FM radio.
