I just found the Lynyrd Skynyrd Band. Can you believe it? I am 65 yrs old and came across "Free Bird". I love that song and played it over & over all that day. Read everything about them.
Wow! You gotta listen to Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone and Comin Home. Those are my favorites ❤By the way, I'm almost 61 and have been listening since I was 17. I even saw them in concert a few decades ago with Johnny of course - awesome concert!
I have never seen another band Live that sounded this good. Period. An amazing group who is dearly missed every day. No bright lights, fancy outfits, stage show. Just pure Souther Rock from the best. I Chrish the memories that they have given me throughout all these years and still continue to listen to this entire album weekly on my vintage Pioneer Audio System.
I am 60 and still rockin! Taking my baby daughter to see Skynyrd at Red Rocks Sept. 28 for her 31st birthday. We are both dying for it to be that day. Still raising her right.
I wonder what Ronnie would have said if someone had told him that night in 1976 that we'd still be listening to his music in 2024...? I can only imagine that his response might have been something like "They better be." Loved and missed, for sure. Thank you for posting this. Hugs
I was at winterland when I was a young man 1976 Junior High School terranova Pacifica California truly a great show Wonderland hosted great shows everybody played at Wonderland San Francisco back in the day
He may have said " a 50 year old song ABOUT fucking hobos is your best play"? At least you ain't listening to today's country top 40. Then it's on and we is fighting yank slickers.
I met Allen in Dayton Ohio before a RCB concert . He immediately talked to me like I was his long lost best friend . He was such a good Dude . Seemed like we really hit it off and alot of the time he would put his arm around me if he happened to look at someone else to speak , like he didn't want me to get away. I invited him to my home for soup beans and cornbread and he said they had to leave right after the show or he would surely take me up on home cooking. He even showed me his glass eye , he lost in a go cart wreck after the plane crash . When I heard he had died it felt like I had lost a friend !!!!!!
One of the things I loved most about their music was that it told true stories! And had KICK ASS MUSIC backing it up! I’m 62 and I will be a fan until I die!!! Want them played at my celebration of life!! CB
I'm 60 and so glad I was able to go to a Skynyrd concert with my 24 year old daughter! Her first concert around 10 years old was the beach Boys. Then Skynyrd and Jason Bonham Led Zeppelin experience. Also a Beatles tribute band. She now loves music of my era more that anything else. Bands today seem manufactured and nowhere near the talent of bands in the 60's, 70's, and 80's.
I am nearly 20 years old and I've been listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd my whole life. I am blessed to have been able to seen Lynyrd Skynyrd back in 2019 when I guess you could still sort of consider it "Lynyrd Skynyrd" because Gary Rossington was still alive at that point. Gary is one of my favorite guitarists ever.
When my dad was beating this band into my head, I didnt understand the greatness that was Lynyrd Skynyrd. As I got older and more into music, I started to understand, how great this band was. Now I have a son, and I will continue the cycle my dad started.
I saw them EVERYTIME they came to Birmingham Alabama....6~7 times. They were Amazing. RIP good ole Southern boys....some of you left us way too soon. ,✌❤🤘
@@CareyMobley-jv5fi Not just to you. It's inconceivable to me that there could ever be a band who can rise to that level. All the ingredients were there, one of which was the fact that Skynyrd came along when they did!
These boys are the best ever! They got there by hard work, practice, practice, practice and dedication. Donnie’s work ethic demanded perfection. I sure do miss them. Six albums from 1973 until “The Crash” in October 1977 and not one bad song! UNBELIEVABLE. I’m 68 and still listen to them Almost every day.
Easy mistake Duron. Donny sang for .38 Special formed early 70s too and Johnny sang in the tribute Skynyrd band formed in 87 I think. 3 lead singers from one family. Cool. Only one Ronnie Van Zant and only one real Skynyrd band but the survivors,Billy,Gary,Arty,Leon and Allen were still great. Miss Steve,what a player tho. Din't even get moved into his new house. RIP Cassie and Dean and all. I grew up just south of them and I was 16 the year they formed. Loved em all my life. Peace
Like the others said. It was '"Ronnie" not "Donnie" but you got everything else right so I think that was just a typo. But you left out the most important thing.They had a ton of natural talent on every single instrument and one of the best (if not THE best) vocalist in the business and definitely without a shadow of a doubt one of the greatest songwriters in the history of writing songs. IMHO when you can write so many great, great songs and NEVER write down a single word... you are the best of all time
Focused,he ment what he was doing,true professional.i listen to this everyday,Ronnie don't miss a beat even drunk and high my all time hero! If u can't drink it or smoke it to hell with it!!
I saw LS in St Augustine Florida a few weeks ago. They might be a cover band now but quite possibly one of the best concerts I've ever seen. During Free Bird all of a sudden I realized it was Ronnie singing. They had mixed his voice in with the band, and video of him from a live show. Quite possibly this one.Gave me chills!!!
45 years ago today. What a great show,i can imagine how it must have been live. ..and unfortunately we lost Gary Rossington 2 days ago,on March 5, 2023.many thanks for sharing your talent,heart and soul,with all of the fans,.Truly an inspiration on so many levels. Good bye sir.
I'm 67 years old. I was blessed to catch Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1977 about 3 months before the plane crash at Mid-Hudson Civic Center in New York. They are my all-time favorite rock-n-roll band. Gary is my guitar hero. Watching this video gives me goosebumps. There is nobody better in my humble opinion. And it's absolutely amazing how good they sound here considering they were were without Ed King (and before Steve Gaines) at the time. 🎸🔥🎸🔥
Saw the original band twice in 76 and once in 77. its only now looking back on those days that you realise how great those times were and how great those bands actually were.
I SWEAR... LYNYRD SKYNYRD is STILL the GREATEST ROCK BAND of my generation!!! HANDS DOWN!!! I'm 58 yrs old, and NO OTHER BAND will EVER exceed this band's talent, performance, or legacy!!! TRUTH
Ronnie sings life's events that people can relate to,and music is life,because without music life would be dull uneventful a drag this came from a neighborhood of kids that wanted to play about life's events and times of the 60sand 70s freedom
Just turned 40 years old 2023 !!! Lynyrd Skynyrd was before my time . They are the best classic southern rock band I have ever heard. RONNIE VAN ZANT is the greatest of all time. His music was his life. His music was his death. He died with his boots on. R.I.P RVZ. YOUR AS FREE AS A BIRD NOW.
I stopped going to concerts in 1975.. I had no Idea how Amazing Skynyrd was, especially live! Only song of theirs I ever heard was SHA. If I had been born a few years later I’m sure I would have been going to their concerts. I would give back every concert I loved just to have seen Skynyrd once.
Yes. I think they weren't afraid to be bold & innovative how they played. Like when they got Billy boy honky tonken his piano. It made them whole & added to their original line-up. Their guitarists are so renowned for their nearly freestyling way of playing. Switching from lead to rhythm & lengthy plays between lyrics & other subtle changes. Blending out for piano to lead were master strokes in their unique style still marvelled at today. Free Byrd is a ballad. Lyrics succinctly telling a story are short. These guys got the stones to come up with guitar solos that play twice as long as the song itself. Amazing concept showcasing enormous talent possessed by Lynard Skynard.
, Amsterdam, the netherlands here. I knew this music back in the seventies. Now I'm a older man and I lost my wife on cancer., This music is awesome,and help me to get over it. Voor Fieke!!
I feel you Frank. I’m a oldster myself. I lost my hubby to Cancer 21 years ago. My Son and daughter and I had them put on Free Bird and we had them kick up the volume full blast. Not sure how the old folks liked it but my hubby loved it I’m sure!
God bless America praying for all of us going through this process of denying Jesus Christ of Nazareth and worshiping the DRAGON God bless America praying for all of us!
I saw them a year later at the Oakland Coliseum.....EPIC show, little did we know. Their music was such a part of my high school years, and now as a grandma, it's still as amazing as ever. RIP!!!!!
Holy fucking shit. I'm 41 yrs old, and always said I respected Lynyrd Skinner, but wasn't a big fan. I never listened to an album all the way through or heard a concert. I'm not dumb, I know the major hits and know they have PLENTY of great songs. But shit.......this started playing while I was working. And damn does this hit hard.....holy cow! Opinions drastically changed.
Allen Collins was so athletic, tip top shape, he could jump around and still play the guitar, reminds me of Angus Young of AC/DC. Very healthy fellows and had great cardio to entertain the crowd ala David Lee Roth and others. They were the picture of health and athleticism.
After the winterland concert in 3776 Ronnie said that they needed the three guitar that's when Steve Gaines joined the band inmate Allen and Gary step it up all of them because they a lot better band until October 20th 1977 when it all came to the end if you want some interesting stuff type in someone took Ronnie's hat in Tokyo 1977! There's so much but can't say itall
I was only 8 months old at the time of the plane crash but thanks to TH-cam I can see just how awesome this band was. R.I.P RVZ Steve Gaines and Cassie Gaines and the other victims
Why Tuesday’s gone isn’t considered the greatest song ever is beyond me! As much as I love everything Skynyrd this song should have hit number one with a bullet! Love Sweet home Alabama, love Freebird, love many many of their songs but that’s the one that kills me every time!
Ted Nugent opened for them before the Outlaws. I was there that night. We had driven over the hill to San Francisco from Reno. The best live concert that I ever saw. I was there for the Sunday night show, which I believe is this show. We were less than 30 feet from the stage. I'll never forget that night. It was so great to find this video.
Hate to break it to ya Mike, but you did forget that night ... because Paris (Bob Welsh, Glenn Cornick) was the opening act. I have photos, as does this guy: ben-upham.pixels.com/collections/lynyrd+skynyrd+3+6+76
I'm Randy Spiker from West Virginia,and I have been a fan since I was eleven years old.I was very lucky to get to at both concert s .I will always be a fan forever please tell all these youngsters today so this band will always be in are lives.
I find it absolutely amazingly beautiful that the music of today is so piss poor that we give rebirth to the music of the 70’s! Thank you those of you who practiced hours a day 7 days a week to make music, e.g. Lynyard Skynyrd, Zeppelin, Joplin, CCR, and on and on...
Just a few currents that I really love. Chris Stapleton top of my list, Blackberry Smoke, these guys are great southern rock band that pays tribute to the 70's bands but also has their own music, hopefully you guys know them. Gov't Mule or where ever Warren Haynes is, Billy Strings. Guess there are a few more when I really think abt it but majority of the time I am listening to 60's-70's w/ a lil 80's thrown in because the crap being put on today is such fluff & everyone sounds alike. It is sad
I love watching some of the audience reactions it’s like everyone freezes for a moment while Allen comes up to the solo plate, and all of them are exceptional in their own way. Ronnie pushed these guys to find their limits along with Working for MCA lol
Ronnie said unto me, one fine day in the autumn of 1973 in Jacksonville, “Believe in us, as we will deliver.” Yes, my friend, I understand after all of these years. Thank you for your friendship.
This concert was two months before Guitarist/Singer/writer Steve Gains joined the Band and gave them a whole new dimension! Keep listening to Skynyrd and they will live on!
Street Survivors album cover *(original one) had stevie and ronnie touching flames? :0( bought it the first day it was released at the record factory in west san jose Ca the wore gooves into that bad bot, such a creat album, including "That Smell" which stuck me as weird that he would write a song like that,,,,but then the crash :0( saw then Live 7 times and will never forget those shows..... EVER!
some of my favorite harmonies are hearing Steve and Ronnie sing together...of course Steve Gaines would then rip the snot out of an incredibly lyrical lead on his guitar, just an amazing add, and wham...those guys just plain stomped it when they played....they played with purpose...but they absolutely LOVED doing what they did...76-77..Steve was an insanely awesome find, and add for skynyrd...I loved Ed King too....but I see Ronnie's badassed self just wouldn't fly anymore with Ed. Sad...Rossington said when Ed left, him and Allen were THE only guitars...and they had to fill in for Where Ed left off and try to fill that HOLLOW assed hole....anyway..Its all a shame losing THIS band, the way we lost them....sad assed... RIP you Rockin Free Birds!
Wow...Steve and Ronnie had insane harmony vocals...Jeesh, this ole world sure lost some of the best its ever seen .....but as you pointed out just keep listening to skynyrd and they will keep living on and on and on
"... Steve Gains joined the Band and gave them a whole new dimension!" They NEEDED him, bad, and this show helps indicate why. They needed a shot in the arm. Here & there, in spots, things had become a little stale. Sorry diehards, but it's true; tho these numbers STILL may be better than most live acts. They set their own sky-high bar.
One regret of teenage me is that I didn't see them when they were still alive. I was working at a donut shop and figured there'd always be another time. Except there wasn't. What an amazing show this band put on. Rest in peace, Ronnie Van Zant, Alan Collins, Billy Powell.
In 1977 I was a junior at Gull Lake high Mi. The entire school had their tickets and we were fired up for upcoming show at Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo . Sadly 9 days before the show history changed...the following day at school hardly anyone was talking. You could hear a pin drop in the hallways. I’m now 60 and still rockin to LS.
I saw them in 1999 at Wings Stadium opening for ZZ Top. I was front row on the floor, I was SO excited and made eye contact numerous times with Billy Powell and at the end of the concert he gave his towel! 1st time I saw them even though I was fan from 76 on. I graduated in 77 in PA. Saw them a 2nd time at Fire Keepers Casino and 3rd at 20 Monroe Live Feb 2017!
I saw them all from Zeppelin to Rush but the original Lynyrd Skynyrd was easily the best live band of all times. Thanks for the up my friend. Brought back a shit load of awesome memories for this old dude. I'm 55 and still rockin'.
You're very right, but you can't ignore the Allman Brothers' live shows unless you just don't relate to the band (BION, some don't). BTW the greatest *single* concert for me was the Who and Quadrophenia.
I am 52 and grew up in the lying Yankee land, I never saw them live. I moved to the South in my late teens, so I should have woke up sooner, I listened to them never thought to see them live. You are a luck man to see them live. Nothing like live music. I listen to Skynyrd a lot and wish I could have experienced them live. A true American Southern Rock Bank. I am diggin the Foo's lately until Grohl opened his trap and said he was embarrassed of his country. Dave lost a fan that day.
I have to say Allman Brothers then maybe Grateful Dead were the best live bands of all time with Skynyrd being right up there with them. I would not call anyone crazy for making your statement tho. Skynyrd was unreal live back then

I was there - right in front of Gary Rossington. I still have an Artimus Pyle broken drum stick I snagged as it came bouncing off the stage, & took some great 35mm slides. One of the best concerts of my career. I've watched this video about 10x.
What a gem of a concert, no lip syncing here, you can even hear the buzz from guitar amps. 3 of the best southern pickers around and Ronnie Van Zant. Great song writers, Skynyrd at its best. There will never be another band like them ever again.
@@inkfreq888 My grandfather died within minutes (maybe even the same exact time) of the crash from cancer at age 46. That's my age now as I type this...
Will never be another band like Lynyrd Skynyrd or a song writer like Ronnie Van Zant ever again...im just glad they were here in my lifetime on this Earth...
No, I don't think there will be. I never got to see them live as my mom had cancer so obviously she was my life, she died 2 mos before plane crash. They were due to be in my town in Nov but obviously that never happened. I am super grateful I got to see RCB in 1980. They kicked ass & most of the surviving guys were there. Got to see Gary & Allen tearing it up, Billy Powell, I loved his piano, that boogie woogie southern thing he did so well so grateful for that. They played instrumental Free Bird w/a spotlight on mic as 50,000 grown men & women sobbed & hugged each other. One of the biggest outpouring of love I have ever been a part of
My sentiments exactly. Ronnie said he would not see 30 years of life , and said it many times to many people. Try to find bad lyrics that no one should hear. Look at Metallica for example. I did and it blew my mind. Look at " The god that failed ". Ronnie was saved the way Jesus said. If you believe that God sent his Son to die for all of our sins , was murdered , rose from the dead and is at the Right hand of the Father. Romans 10:9 says ( " That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. That's pretty simple. You will still sin but you will be more aware when you do. You don't become sinless. You become sin-less. You don't have to do nothing else. You are SAVED FROM ETERNAL HELL and separation from God. I used to drink gallons of beer everyday. Now I drink 1-3 a week , sometimes none. Doing it doesn't convict or bother me . The KJV Bible says your good to go until you lose your faculties ( Drunk ). If you lose your faculties after 3 or four beers then you need not drink. I know I am rambling but it's the most important thing a person needs to 100% positive about. God made us and we play by his rules or our rules and we lose , every time! If I'm wrong and we all die like dogs and feel nothing at death and cease to exist then we're good to go! But if I'm right according to the Holy Bible ............then I have gained it all , living with God and Christ in Heaven forever and ever and ever. ETERNITY!!!!!! And I will see my precious Mama and the others! " “Hallelujah Praise God Almighty For those that have ears to hear let them hear , and for those with eyes to see let them see! p.s. Ronnie had the Holy Spirit in him. There is no other explanation for him foretelling his death. Listen to the song Raiford !
Every time I turn this concert on it’s like I turned it on for the first time because I love it just as much. It’s absolutely second to NONE !!! Love the Skynyrd from Jax !!!
I don’t think this family ever put on a mediocre show .Always fired up and absolutely AMAZING! Legendary group who will always be a huge part of my soul! RIP each and every one! I’d love to hear an after life album!
was fortunate enough to see lynyrd skynyrd twice at the selland arena fresno ca...first time was this tour "gimmi back my bullets" the second time was the street survivor's tour August of 77 two months before the crash. sweet memories
When it comes to playing live, these guys don't have to take a back seat to anyone!! Straight at you, balls to the wall rock and roll! Hang on tight, it's going to be a hell of a ride!!
had the pleasure of seeing them live in concert early 70s 75 or 76. They were awesome and I will be forever grateful that I was able to attend this concert and so so many others in my younger years.
I'm 32 and was raised on the classics by my parents. Skynyrd is know for Freebird, and Sweet Home Alabama, but their music goes so much deeper. Alot of it under rated, and under appreciated.
Me too, I been waking up to this gem concert lately. This is the real skynyrd right here, no questions asked. Waiting impatiently on my white gambler fedora that I bought a few days ago. RIP Ronnie, you dearly missed man!
Saw the boys in the fall of 1977. I saw them at Freedom Hall in Johnson City, Tenn.What a remembrance. My Dad died like 5 weeks after I saw them. The song will always be in my heart as a reminder of that downer time. peace
NY born and bred. No better sound no better band. Nothing beats these southern brothers. Favorite alltime band and its not even close. Skynyrd by a country mile. All songs have meaning not just a song.
Italian biker here, we love 'em since ages also here in old Europe. I have a Lynyrd Skynyrd patch with southen flag well on display on my Harley vest :-) And the poster just of this concert hangs in my living room since years...
Agree wholeheartedly. Nothing beats the 70's imo. Poor kids today are f**king clueless it's tragic seriously. And btw Skynrd for me died Oct. 20 '77. But like I've said the music lives forever. Thank God above at least there is some video!! Nothing even comes close. Ha ok so now let me tell you how I really feel.
When I think of Southern rock, I think Lynyrd Skynyrd, because this is how it’s done son… Forever, Skynyrd man, greatest, southern rock band ever… Keep on rockin
Wow what a concert what a band, have been in my my heart for so many years. Fly High Gary Rossington you are truly a Freebird now and will be so missed here. But I am sure there is a southern rock reunion in rock & roll heaven. God bless his soul and his family 🎸🙏💕🕊️
I just found the Lynyrd Skynyrd Band. Can you believe it? I am 65 yrs old and came across "Free Bird". I love that song and played it over & over all that day. Read everything about them.
It’s never over til it’s over. Glad you found them now.
Wow! You gotta listen to Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone and Comin Home. Those are my favorites ❤By the way, I'm almost 61 and have been listening since I was 17. I even saw them in concert a few decades ago with Johnny of course - awesome concert!
You’re parents fucked up but I’m glad I found em
Listen to early stuff you'll enjoy hopefully
WHAT!!!!!! Is this blasphemy but I will forgive you my sister woman I am also 65 in sep of 2024 thanks to the Good Lord above bless you woman.
Quite possibly the best, most in sync live band of all time.
They had to be or a fist was coming when they got off stage! LOL
All that practicing at the hell house back in the day. Note for note. It just stuck with them. Best southern rock! Hell yes.
Ronnie Rehearsal set the pace, hence the in sync live shows. Nobody better . This band made The Who nervous .
Absolutely!
yeah, they're very tight. VERY tight. so was kiss, maiden, who & priest. you just have to practice ALOT
61 years old and hearing this music makes me feel 17 again
amen bro hell ya rock on
I'll suck you off
Right here with ya brother 60 here still kick ass music

And keep your pencil pushing hands off the water Mr Slicker. In northern California we don't need your help with our water.

I met Allen in Dayton Ohio before a RCB concert . He immediately talked to me like I was his long lost best friend . He was such a good Dude .

I invited him to my home for soup beans and cornbread and he said they had to leave right after the show or he would surely take me up on home cooking.

@@ricciwelter1742you there?
what an era the 70's was with bands like this
Yes it was glad I grew up then.
For real. Men were men, testosterone and creativity flowed, not stifled by political correctness and posers of this era
One of the things I loved most about their music was that it told true stories! And had KICK ASS MUSIC backing it up! I’m 62 and I will be a fan until I die!!! Want them played at my celebration of life!! CB

Almost every day.
Donnie? His name was Ronnie.
Easy mistake Duron.
Donny sang for .38 Special formed early 70s too and Johnny sang in the tribute Skynyrd band formed in 87 I think.
3 lead singers from one family. Cool.
Only one Ronnie Van Zant and only one real Skynyrd band but the survivors,Billy,Gary,Arty,Leon and Allen were still great.
Miss Steve,what a player tho.
Din't even get moved into his new house.
RIP Cassie and Dean and all.
I grew up just south of them and I was 16 the year they formed.
Loved em all my life.
Peace
Well.. I'm 78 and ALWAYS will listen to them!!!
Ronnie was their lead singer & frontman. Donnie was with 38 Special.
Like the others said. It was '"Ronnie" not "Donnie" but you got everything else right so I think that was just a typo. But you left out the most important thing.They had a ton of natural talent on every single instrument and one of the best (if not THE best) vocalist in the business and definitely without a shadow of a doubt one of the greatest songwriters in the history of writing songs. IMHO when you can write so many great, great songs and NEVER write down a single word... you are the best of all time
unreal how Ronnie's voice sounds live...focus, personality, clarity...better than any studio sound ..it's hypnotic
Focused,he ment what he was doing,true professional.i listen to this everyday,Ronnie don't miss a beat even drunk and high my all time hero! If u can't drink it or smoke it to hell with it!!
@@funnysoup9708 I believe that, wish I could have seen them all.
52:04 gives signal for a little boost of clarity
I saw LS in St Augustine Florida a few weeks ago. They might be a cover band now but quite possibly one of the best concerts I've ever seen. During Free Bird all of a sudden I realized it was Ronnie singing. They had mixed his voice in with the band, and video of him from a live show. Quite possibly this one.Gave me chills!!!
Cry For The Bad Man is so underrated
A whole lot of their music is.
We just lost Gary on March 5, 2023.
RIP GARY 😔💔
Gary’s gone but, his music is still alive and well. RIP
45 years ago today. What a great show,i can imagine how it must have been live. ..and unfortunately we lost Gary Rossington 2 days ago,on March 5, 2023.many thanks for sharing your talent,heart and soul,with all of the fans,.Truly an inspiration on so many levels. Good bye sir.
There All Together Now ! An Hopefully
Rocking The Cosmos
Once Again!!
In my seventies and still rocking to this and much more from the 1970's
The greatest rock band.........ever....
I'm 67 years old. I was blessed to catch Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1977 about 3 months before the plane crash at Mid-Hudson Civic Center in New York. They are my all-time favorite rock-n-roll band. Gary is my guitar hero. Watching this video gives me goosebumps. There is nobody better in my humble opinion.
And it's absolutely amazing how good they sound here considering they were were without Ed King (and before Steve Gaines) at the time.
🎸🔥🎸🔥
Cry for the bad mad is a blistering performance by the man Gary Rossington!!! FUCK YES!!
great
greatest

Saw the original band twice in 76 and once in 77. its only now looking back on those days that you realise how great those times were and how great those bands actually were.
2020 Is a rough year. I am glad Lynyrd Skynyrd is around on youtube.
I was at this show! Lots of fun , living 45 minutes from Winterland in those days!
Being an 18 year old from australia, I wish I had've been 17 living in america around this time, beats all of our music
Allen Collins was having the time of his life! Such a tremendous guitar player. It's such a shame what happened to him years later.
I LOVE THIS WHOLE CONCERT
I WAS THERE
God You LUCKY SO And SO 😁WISH I HAD BEEN g
Me too I loved Winterland. It was my second home, every weekend,there was someone to go see. I remember this concert as if it was yesterday.
Today, on the anniversary of the show, I came here for the goosebumps!
Lucky dog!!!🤙🏻
Lucky mofo
An incredible band, and this is arguably one of their finest moments. Just a killer rockin band that few have rivaled. Fantastic.
You got that right! Pun intended
Who were the other guys playing guitar on T for Texas??
@@deewaynenorwood1443 great question. no idea. tried search on google, no luck. probably from the warm-up band, but no luck with any answers.
Most all of the winter land concerts were awesome they ave a certain feeling about them and yard skynrd is one of the best examples.
@@deewaynenorwood1443 That would be Hughie Thomasson and Billy Jones from the Outlaws - the opening band on this tour.
I love that I can actually hear the words he's singing . So clear!
Every time I listen I am in awe of their excellence. No sound bytes or overdubs here folks. Real bass ass rock and roll.
I SWEAR... LYNYRD SKYNYRD is STILL the GREATEST ROCK BAND of my generation!!! HANDS DOWN!!! I'm 58 yrs old, and NO OTHER BAND will EVER exceed this band's talent, performance, or legacy!!! TRUTH
I'm 73 years young and enjoy the heck outta this band. Great music for any age.
You're wrong...
@@judykubera8810 .
@@speez6106 who’s your best band?
Ronnie sings life's events that people can relate to,and music is life,because without music life would be dull uneventful a drag this came from a neighborhood of kids that wanted to play about life's events and times of the 60sand 70s freedom
Just turned 40 years old 2023 !!! Lynyrd Skynyrd was before my time . They are the best classic southern rock band I have ever heard. RONNIE VAN ZANT is the greatest of all time. His music was his life. His music was his death. He died with his boots on. R.I.P RVZ. YOUR AS FREE AS A BIRD NOW.
That's Beautifully Said
@You just dont lnow? Ive studied each member!
Just so you all know, not only was Ronnie awesome, he never wrote a lyric down. He said if it's not from the heart it's not worth singing
I can't get enough of them! Every song is great nobody will ever compare to them the best there ever was, is,and will ever be!!!
I stopped going to concerts in 1975.. I had no Idea how Amazing Skynyrd was, especially live! Only song of theirs I ever heard was SHA. If I had been born a few years later I’m sure I would have been going to their concerts. I would give back every concert I loved just to have seen Skynyrd once.
This guitar 🎸 playing is just amazing Wow 😯
Yes. I think they weren't afraid to be bold & innovative how they played. Like when they got Billy boy honky tonken his piano. It made them whole & added to their original line-up. Their guitarists are so renowned for their nearly freestyling way of playing. Switching from lead to rhythm & lengthy plays between lyrics & other subtle changes. Blending out for piano to lead were master strokes in their unique style still marvelled at today. Free Byrd is a ballad. Lyrics succinctly telling a story are short. These guys got the stones to come up with guitar solos that play twice as long as the song itself. Amazing concept showcasing enormous talent possessed by Lynard Skynard.
you got that shit right
, Amsterdam, the netherlands here.
I knew this music back in the seventies.
Now I'm a older man and I lost my wife on cancer.,
This music is awesome,and help me to get over it.
Voor Fieke!!
I feel you Frank. I’m a oldster myself. I lost my hubby to Cancer 21 years ago. My Son and daughter and I had them put on Free Bird and we had them kick up the volume full blast. Not sure how the old folks liked it but my hubby loved it I’m sure!
Cheers Frank. Never let the music stop bringing back memories!
Ronnie was of Dutch ancestry, "Van Zant".
God bless America praying for all of us going through this process of denying Jesus Christ of Nazareth and worshiping the DRAGON God bless America praying for all of us!
Quite simply, the greatest band to ever grace a stage....period.
Amen bro
Does anybody know who can play the piano like Powell. Come on man! Freakin amazing. They are all gone.
Damn straight brother!!
Definitely one of them !! Outstanding raw & unfettered Southern Rock brilliance....yeah those guys could really play..
@@mariaclayton9892he'll yeah he could play !!
I saw them a year later at the Oakland Coliseum.....EPIC show, little did we know. Their music was such a part of my high school years, and now as a grandma, it's still as amazing as ever. RIP!!!!!
I was at the Day on the Green as well. It was awesome I'll never forget.
@rooney2561 Me too, great concert, it's on youtube.
RIP Gary. Fly on brother!!!
Holy fucking shit. I'm 41 yrs old, and always said I respected Lynyrd Skinner, but wasn't a big fan. I never listened to an album all the way through or heard a concert. I'm not dumb, I know the major hits and know they have PLENTY of great songs. But shit.......this started playing while I was working. And damn does this hit hard.....holy cow! Opinions drastically changed.
What album lot's of the best songs are first album certainly not all on pronounced
JRod this is not best gig on the TH-cam check out the winterland concert from 1975 with original 3 guitarist has to be 9ne of their best performances
knebworth 1976 with Steve Gaines is incredible, especially T for Texas @@thomasparsons1470
specifically from inception to plane crash, anything after that is gay. unfortunately.
Welcome to real music, in my opinion.❤️
The thing I loved about this band was just when you thought they couldn't play any harder they hit a gear that you didn't even knew existed.
🤘🏻💪🏻👊🏻✌🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
95% as technically perfect in person....but 500% more power........best in person band ever
NASCAR speeds
Allen Collins was so athletic, tip top shape, he could jump around and still play the guitar, reminds me of Angus Young of AC/DC. Very healthy fellows and had great cardio to entertain the crowd ala David Lee Roth and others. They were the picture of health and athleticism.
@@harpoon_bakery162 Regarding athleticism, Bon Jovi also come to mind. Some of their older videos feel like aerobics lessons.
R.I.P another legend. Gone but forever In our hearts.
You'll never be forgotten, Lynyrd.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is a treasure on this earth, real classic
I saw them in December of 1976 at the forum in Canada. Just months before the terrible loss. A great band it was and will never be another like it.
I've always been so grateful that my dad got me into lynard Skynyrd when I was a kid, I've loved their music ever since
After the winterland concert in 3776 Ronnie said that they needed the three guitar that's when Steve Gaines joined the band inmate Allen and Gary step it up all of them because they a lot better band until October 20th 1977 when it all came to the end if you want some interesting stuff type in someone took Ronnie's hat in Tokyo 1977! There's so much but can't say itall
I was only 8 months old at the time of the plane crash but thanks to TH-cam I can see just how awesome this band was. R.I.P RVZ Steve Gaines and Cassie Gaines and the other victims
Why Tuesday’s gone isn’t considered the greatest song ever is beyond me! As much as I love everything Skynyrd this song should have hit number one with a bullet! Love Sweet home Alabama, love Freebird, love many many of their songs but that’s the one that kills me every time!
Best Band that ever existed, my opinion. Seriously talented musicians !!!
RIP Gary Rossington
tuesday gone just breaks my heart . it’s just one of those tunes that brings a tear to your eyes.
Totally agree. 😢
Especially now; with all gone. No words for how exceptional every member of this band was… don’t forget those ladies singing either. 💙
40 years where did they go , still one of the greatest bands
The greatest.
@@andrewstack9980 yessir
You got that right
They still tour right now
Ted Nugent opened for them before the Outlaws. I was there that night. We had driven over the hill to San Francisco from Reno. The best live concert that I ever saw. I was there for the Sunday night show, which I believe is this show. We were less than 30 feet from the stage. I'll never forget that night. It was so great to find this video.
Excellent!!
Hate to break it to ya Mike, but you did forget that night ... because Paris (Bob Welsh, Glenn Cornick) was the opening act. I have photos, as does this guy:
ben-upham.pixels.com/collections/lynyrd+skynyrd+3+6+76
Lucky man!!
I think that give 3 steps was a little fast at this concert compared to others, they still did an awesome job!
Wow
I'm Randy Spiker from West Virginia,and I have been a fan since I was eleven years old.I was very lucky to get to at both concert s .I will always be a fan forever please tell all these youngsters today so this band will always be in are lives.
I find it absolutely amazingly beautiful that the music of today is so piss poor that we give rebirth to the music of the 70’s! Thank you those of you who practiced hours a day 7 days a week to make music, e.g. Lynyard Skynyrd, Zeppelin, Joplin, CCR, and on and on...
Just a few currents that I really love. Chris Stapleton top of my list, Blackberry Smoke, these guys are great southern rock band that pays tribute to the 70's bands but also has their own music, hopefully you guys know them. Gov't Mule or where ever Warren Haynes is, Billy Strings. Guess there are a few more when I really think abt it but majority of the time I am listening to 60's-70's w/ a lil 80's thrown in because the crap being put on today is such fluff & everyone sounds alike. It is sad
Yes the music these days is shit compared to the old days of the best musicians of all time
That's because no one has this talent.
That guitar solo on Freebird........ It's the very definition of jaw dropping!
So true
I love watching some of the audience reactions it’s like everyone freezes for a moment while Allen comes up to the solo plate, and all of them are exceptional in their own way. Ronnie pushed these guys to find their limits along with Working for MCA lol
Fly Free bird! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
❤❤❤❤❤awesome and freebird was graduation song 1980 in northwestern high pa.same carson kresley attended
I just turned 68 and listen to Skynard every day the greatest band ever to me.
Bless you Dwight
Welcome to the club.......long live the south
And iam a so cali native....go figure.......
Me to bro
Best live band of all time
Ronnie said unto me, one fine day in the autumn of 1973 in Jacksonville, “Believe in us, as we will deliver.” Yes, my friend, I understand after all of these years. Thank you for your friendship.
This concert was two months before Guitarist/Singer/writer Steve Gains joined the Band and gave them a whole new dimension! Keep listening to Skynyrd and they will live on!
Street Survivors album cover *(original one) had stevie and ronnie touching flames? :0( bought it the first day it was released at the record factory in west san jose Ca the wore gooves into that bad bot, such a creat album, including "That Smell" which stuck me as weird that he would write a song like that,,,,but then the crash :0( saw then Live 7 times and will never forget those shows..... EVER!
some of my favorite harmonies are hearing Steve and Ronnie sing together...of course Steve Gaines would then rip the snot out of an incredibly lyrical lead on his guitar, just an amazing add, and wham...those guys just plain stomped it when they played....they played with purpose...but they absolutely LOVED doing what they did...76-77..Steve was an insanely awesome find, and add for skynyrd...I loved Ed King too....but I see Ronnie's badassed self just wouldn't fly anymore with Ed. Sad...Rossington said when Ed left, him and Allen were THE only guitars...and they had to fill in for Where Ed left off and try to fill that HOLLOW assed hole....anyway..Its all a shame losing THIS band, the way we lost them....sad assed... RIP you Rockin Free Birds!
Wow...Steve and Ronnie had insane harmony vocals...Jeesh, this ole world sure lost some of the best its ever seen .....but as you pointed out just keep listening to skynyrd and they will keep living on and on and on
Man when Ronnie got killed we lost a song writing genius imagine if that didn't happen
"... Steve Gains joined the Band and gave them a whole new dimension!" They NEEDED him, bad, and this show helps indicate why. They needed a shot in the arm. Here & there, in spots, things had become a little stale. Sorry diehards, but it's true; tho these numbers STILL may be better than most live acts. They set their own sky-high bar.
One regret of teenage me is that I didn't see them when they were still alive. I was working at a donut shop and figured there'd always be another time. Except there wasn't. What an amazing show this band put on. Rest in peace, Ronnie Van Zant, Alan Collins, Billy Powell.
Rest in PEACE you guys ❤winners..
And now Gary. The band is complete again!
In 1977 I was a junior at Gull Lake high Mi. The entire school had their tickets and we were fired up for upcoming show at Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo . Sadly 9 days before the show history changed...the following day at school hardly anyone was talking. You could hear a pin drop in the hallways. I’m now 60 and still rockin to LS.
Amen RIP but the music goes on
I saw them in 1999 at Wings Stadium opening for ZZ Top. I was front row on the floor, I was SO excited and made eye contact numerous times with Billy Powell and at the end of the concert he gave his towel! 1st time I saw them even though I was fan from 76 on. I graduated in 77 in PA. Saw them a 2nd time at Fire Keepers Casino and 3rd at 20 Monroe Live Feb 2017!
If people actually knew how amazing this band was….They we’re masterful 🌹💔
40 years later still cutting heads god bless all you guys
I saw them all from Zeppelin to Rush but the original Lynyrd Skynyrd was easily the best live band of all times. Thanks for the up my friend. Brought back a shit load of awesome memories for this old dude. I'm 55 and still rockin'.
You're very right, but you can't ignore the Allman Brothers' live shows unless you just don't relate to the band (BION, some don't). BTW the greatest *single* concert for me was the Who and Quadrophenia.
I am 52 and grew up in the lying Yankee land, I never saw them live. I moved to the South in my late teens, so I should have woke up sooner, I listened to them never thought to see them live.
You are a luck man to see them live. Nothing like live music. I listen to Skynyrd a lot and wish I could have experienced them live. A true American Southern Rock Bank.
I am diggin the Foo's lately until Grohl opened his trap and said he was embarrassed of his country. Dave lost a fan that day.
your not old Bubba 91 is old ,,, Whisky Rocka Rolla to you ....
I'm older & still rocking
I have to say Allman Brothers then maybe Grateful Dead were the best live bands of all time with Skynyrd being right up there with them. I would not call anyone crazy for making your statement tho. Skynyrd was unreal live back then

Amazing to see such footage after all this time. All time great band, massively influential, hugely missed. RVZ one of a kind, never bettered.
They were the real deal.
Ronnie van zant an his crew was by far the best southern rock band ever God bless all the members past an present
I was there - right in front of Gary Rossington. I still have an Artimus Pyle broken drum stick I snagged as it came bouncing off the stage, & took some great 35mm slides. One of the best concerts of my career. I've watched this video about 10x.
I envy you bro... never seen live but I live by this incredible band
awesome story man,i was 7 years old loved em as my dad constantly played their albums

What a gem of a concert, no lip syncing here, you can even hear the buzz from guitar amps. 3 of the best southern pickers around and Ronnie Van Zant. Great song writers, Skynyrd at its best. There will never be another band like them ever again.
Skynard as a band died to me when the plane went down. Just not the same . . .

NEVER GeT Tired Of Listening To SKYNYRD
They and The Rolling Stones are the only ones i NEVER get boring of. 🥰🥰🥰🥰😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😛😛😛😛😛
Will never be another band like Lynyrd Skynyrd or a song writer like Ronnie Van Zant ever again...im just glad they were here in my lifetime on this Earth...
Yes
well said
No, I don't think there will be. I never got to see them live as my mom had cancer so obviously she was my life, she died 2 mos before plane crash. They were due to be in my town in Nov but obviously that never happened.
I am super grateful I got to see RCB in 1980. They kicked ass & most of the surviving guys were there. Got to see Gary & Allen tearing it up, Billy Powell, I loved his piano, that boogie woogie southern thing he did so well so grateful for that. They played instrumental Free Bird w/a spotlight on mic as 50,000 grown men & women sobbed & hugged each other. One of the biggest outpouring of love I have ever been a part of
@@kathyrais574 I am sorry for you losing your Mother! But there is a way to see her again. Jesus said " I am the way, the truth and the LIFE!"
My sentiments exactly. Ronnie said he would not see 30 years of life , and said it many times to many people. Try to find bad lyrics that no one should hear. Look at Metallica for example. I did and it blew my mind. Look at " The god that failed ". Ronnie was saved the way Jesus said. If you believe that God sent his Son to die for all of our sins , was murdered , rose from the dead and is at the Right hand of the Father. Romans 10:9 says ( " That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. That's pretty simple. You will still sin but you will be more aware when you do. You don't become sinless. You become sin-less. You don't have to do nothing else. You are SAVED FROM ETERNAL HELL and separation from God. I used to drink gallons of beer everyday. Now I drink 1-3 a week , sometimes none. Doing it doesn't convict or bother me . The KJV Bible says your good to go until you lose your faculties ( Drunk ). If you lose your faculties after 3 or four beers then you need not drink. I know I am rambling but it's the most important thing a person needs to 100% positive about. God made us and we play by his rules or our rules and we lose , every time! If I'm wrong and we all die like dogs and feel nothing at death and cease to exist then we're good to go! But if I'm right according to the Holy Bible ............then I have gained it all , living with God and Christ in Heaven forever and ever and ever. ETERNITY!!!!!! And I will see my precious Mama and the others! " “Hallelujah Praise God Almighty For those that have ears to hear let them hear , and for those with eyes to see let them see! p.s. Ronnie had the Holy Spirit in him. There is no other explanation for him foretelling his death. Listen to the song Raiford !
Every time I turn this concert on it’s like I turned it on for the first time because I love it just as much. It’s absolutely second to NONE !!! Love the Skynyrd from Jax !!!
I don’t think this family ever put on a mediocre show .Always fired up and absolutely AMAZING! Legendary group who will always be a huge part of my soul! RIP each and every one! I’d love to hear an after life album!
The band that's ruled my airwaves for 40 years,played loud n proud at home,in the bar,the shed,in the truck,at work!!LYNYRD SKYNYRD fully rock
There music will live on to the end of of time
at work? you must have a cool boss....
was fortunate enough to see lynyrd skynyrd twice at the selland arena fresno ca...first time was this tour "gimmi back my bullets" the second time was the street survivor's tour August of 77 two months before the crash. sweet memories
When it comes to playing live, these guys don't have to take a back seat to anyone!! Straight at you, balls to the wall rock and roll! Hang on tight, it's going to be a hell of a ride!!
Preparation..
Greatest band of all time!
had the pleasure of seeing them live in concert early 70s 75 or 76. They were awesome and I will be forever grateful that I was able to attend this concert and so so many others in my younger years.
I'm 32 and was raised on the classics by my parents. Skynyrd is know for Freebird, and Sweet Home Alabama, but their music goes so much deeper. Alot of it under rated, and under appreciated.
Oh man listen to this vid so many great songs u missing out
They probably don't play instruments!
I'm 53 and loved my family for keeping Skynyrd loud and proud all through the yrs.you got that right!
All I can do is write about it.
U were raised right!!
Will never be another like this... legends 100%
Free bird has to be my favourite ❤️. T for Texas second favourite . Love this unstoppable band !
Skynyrd...The best of Southern Rock!!!! powerful and talented beyond any other!!!
As long as you put the Atlanta Rhythm Section on spot 2, I won't be splitting hairs in twp here.... With let's see RIP Charlie Daniels on 3 ?

I can't get enough of this show ... Its on repeat... Seriously listen to it everyday 👍👍
Me too, I been waking up to this gem concert lately. This is the real skynyrd right here, no questions asked. Waiting impatiently on my white gambler fedora that I bought a few days ago. RIP Ronnie, you dearly missed man!
100 years from now it will still thrill
Ronnie is just dripping charisma....he stands like a king or a prophet , delivering his message .... these guys are the real deal .
Saw the boys in the fall of 1977. I saw them at Freedom Hall in Johnson City, Tenn.What a remembrance. My Dad died like 5 weeks after I saw them. The song will always be in my heart as a reminder of that downer time. peace
NY born and bred. No better sound no better band. Nothing beats these southern brothers. Favorite alltime band and its not even close. Skynyrd by a country mile. All songs have meaning not just a song.
K Donovan 🤘🤘🤘
As a Louisianaian, and born Southerner through and through, I confer upon you K Donovan honorary Southerner status. Cheers P[>

I have a Lynyrd Skynyrd patch with southen flag well on display on my Harley vest :-)
And the poster just of this concert hangs in my living room since years...
Sweet home Alabama here born and raised and a crappie fishing fool lol
Agree wholeheartedly. Nothing beats the 70's imo. Poor kids today are f**king clueless it's tragic seriously. And btw Skynrd for me died Oct. 20 '77. But like I've said the music lives forever. Thank God above at least there
is some video!! Nothing even comes close. Ha ok so now let me tell you how I really feel.
It's feb.16,2023 and I'm 63yrs old. Best music ever!! So glad I grew up with it!!!
When I think of Southern rock, I think Lynyrd Skynyrd, because this is how it’s done son… Forever, Skynyrd man, greatest, southern rock band ever… Keep on rockin
This has to be the best rhythm guitar playing I've ever heard.
Allen collins!
Check out what he does on Workin for the MCA
great concert. many songs played here you don't hear too often.. Cry for the bad man, Tuesday's Gone. Needle and the Spoon, etc. Rock on!!!!!
