I agree with this assessment. It is not by a southern band, but it is in the proper style and deals with appropriate subject matter to be considered part of the genre.

I wouldn't call Queen a southern rock band, but I believe that for FBG they simultaneously embraced and parodied the genre to make a point.

How so?  I'm just not hearing it I guess.  When I think southern rock, I think Skynyrd or the Allman Brothers.  ZZ Top.  Molly Hatchet, even.  There's some country/delta blues influence in there.  Maybe a steel guitar or a violin.

When I think of Southern Rock I don't think of close four part harmonies.

I'm going to guess 'sex with large, matronly women'.

The simple, almost stomped-out rhythm. The twangy-as-fuck bass, the country-style strumming in the rhythm guitars.

I thought it was just assumed. It sounds like a style-parody of Skynyrd or, like, CCR at points.

To my ears, saying that Fat Bottom Girls is Queen's stab at southern rock would be like saying the sky is blue.

I don't know how exactly to "prove" that the sky is blue, I look out of my window and it is blue.

The only thing that isn't the middle-of-the-road southern rock of its day is the lead vocal.

i would pay to hear a bluegrass cover thereof.

I've always wanted to hear a full-bluesgrass cover of "Interstate Love Song" by STP.
