They were certainly a huge influence on me.” Other influences included Traffic’s “John Barleycorn Must Die” and Procol Harum’s “Salty Dog.” “We wore out the grooves on ‘Salty Dog,’” Justo said. “That song has the best chord progressions in any pop song.” Justo quit after Atlanta Rhythm Section recorded and released its self-titled debut in 1972. “I left because the band at the time wasn’t making any money,” he said. “Like every dumb musician I had no insurance and a child that needed medical care. So I had to do something.” The band’s charting years ran from 1976 to 1979, and through it all, Justo still kept in touch with the band and would sing as a guest until he rejoined in 2011. Since then, he’s continued with the band even after Daughtry, who had been the band’s sole constant from day one, called it quits after 50 years last year. “It’s kind of funny,” Just said. “I’m the first guy to leave the band, and it looks like I’ll be the last guy standing.” Grant applications from certified tax-exempt, nonprofit organizations are now being accepted. Applications ranging from $500 to $3000 will be considered.
