I recall the night in 1977 when it was announced on a rock radio station that their plane had gone down. The station announced it but did not have all the details at it had just happened, so they were unsure who survived or who died. Such a loss for the music world.
sadly, i remember it too,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Was in McDonald's ... The announcement came on the radio. You could have heard a pin drop in that crowded restaurant.... Then the station played Freebird and girls sobbed. Every guy in there was teary-eyed and stoic...
Such a loss.. miss them everyday.
Steve Gaines caused every member of Lynyrd Skynyrd to up their game in the best way
Absolutely! ❤️
i am 65, lifelong southern man from SC, in the 70s we had the best music of all time! these people were real artist! not like the hacks today that label themselves "artist"
I'm a little bit younger than you. I grew up in the northeast and I couldn't agree with you more about the music of the 70's. My first concert was Blue Oyster Cult during the summer of 77 in Bridgeport CT. Not only was the music great back then but going to a rock concert was something special. Bands were almost never on TV so it was the only way to see them perform, the tickets were cheap, usually $10 or less and the music was special to people of our generation. The bands were young and so were we. It would be hard to find any over the age of 25 in the audience back then.
As for a great southern rock concert, in 1984 I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn, Charlie Daniels and the Allman Brothers Band in a 7 hour general admission outdoor concert in New Britain Connecticut which would probably be the best concert ever saw if I wasn't so inebriated that day making my memories of it a little blurry. But I do remember Stevie Ray's guitar absolutely blowing everyone away.
Let the strings n the lyrics do the talking. No holds barred! Be direct n without resporse. Makes the best music. 👍👏❤
Ed King lived next to my Brother on Old hickory lake. Great guy!
That's amazing!! Had the chance to chat with him on Facebook a few times. Great guy!
@@johngibsonmusic😅
I love your appreciation for this band.
Thank you very much! My favorite band.
@@johngibsonmusic, mine, too.
I LIVED IN ALABAMA FOR 13 YEARS SWEET HOME WAS DEFINITELY PLATED in all the club's radio THOSE were the good old days but you KNOW who was always on my mind. A.K.A ELVIS JUNKIE
Awesome!!
I found your channel looking for Lynyrd Skynyrd reactions!
Awesome!
I can't get over steve gaines and allen collins back to back guitar solos in this live version. And when allen collins comes in after steve gaines, it's so iconic and bad ass, like a guitar battle but there's no losers. Also that tone on allen collins gibson explorer is sick
Absolutely!!

love your reactions!
Thank you!
I’ve been listening to this for 30+ years and it’s still great! I’m not from the southern states, hell I’m not even American, but this song makes me want to adopt a southern accent, get a Confederate flag and binge watch Dukes of Hazzard! 😁
This is a great but when it comes to Sweet Home Alabama Ed King is King with the intro
His intro was the best!
I didn't know that Drake Sather did Lynyrd Skynryd reviews on TH-cam.
😂👋
Have tp disagree with you on this one. The racist lyrics are very offensive,
There are no racist lyrics in this song, that’s a lie. If you don’t believe me search for yourself
there are no racist lyrics in this song....as a matter of fact it takes a swipe at southern Dem racists with the lines "In Birmingham they love the governor [George Wallace] boo-boo-boo....Now Watergate does not bother me, does your conscience bother you?" What he was saying was Watergate was nothing compared to the Dems support of segregation in the south.
Please elaborate on what you believe is racist about the lyrics? First though, educate yourself.
@@TheShaunpk1 Have you forgotten the governor they sing about?

But others interpreted the lyrics as a reminder to Young that not all Southerners are the same. "We thought Neil was shooting all the ducks in order to kill one or two," Van Zant later said. "We're Southern rebels but, more than that, we know the difference between right and wrong." In fact, those "boos" are thought to imply that the band disagreed with Wallace's politics-and that bit about Watergate seems to be a pointed remark about the hypocrisy of the North, which had its own problems, too.
By all accounts, there was no real "feud" between the artists. "We wrote 'Sweet Home Alabama' as a joke," Van Zant clarified a few years following the release. "We didn't even think about it. The words just came out that way. We just laughed like hell and said, 'Ain't that funny.' We love Neil Young. We love his music."

Van Zant grew up listening to Young and regularly rocked a "Tonight's the Night" t-shirt-most notably, on the cover of the band's album Street Survivors. According to Rolling Stone, he was even rumored to have been buried in it. Neil Young, too, owned a Lynyrd Skynyrd Florida Whiskey shirt, and once said, "I'd rather play 'Sweet Home Alabama' than 'Southern Man' anytime
