No flashing lights,flash pots,lasers just good ole rock n roll.
and NO CELL PHONES
The crazy thing to me is at that point none of them knew what absolute LEGENDS they would grow to be!
❤
Just listen to that crowd, man this band was loved and respected above and beyond.
🎸Steve Gaines you are badass...forever..RIP🎸
Wow! I’ve known of this band forever but only now do I appreciate how freaking good they were.
What a special band they where,every member was so talented, Steve Gaines bought so much to the table
A damn garage band worked hard and their dreams came true. Not another story like it. They smoked up and down.
Steve may have been the most talented of them all, what an amazing voice and shredder!!! He and his sister were only there for such a short time....Such a tragedy.
Steve Gaines , YOU GOT THAT RIGHT !!! !!! !!!
Steve Gaines was just beginning to shine with the band! You got that right!
If I leave here tomorrow would you still remember me... 38 years later we still do
+Helene Kane Their songs, not only Freebird, have a prophetic quality to them, strangely enough. I will always remember them, even though I am only 35. My mom saw their last Chicago show. So lucky. RIP to the victims of the crash, we love you guys!
Helene Kane Never Will Forget... Never Could Forget... Thank you To The Fallen Brothers And Sisters. of that Sad Day
itsadogsworld yaknow Anem to that brother... if he didn't we wouldn't have Heard His and Their Greatness
Ronnie is da shit
So very true you got that right
Fifteen years ago today the world lost Allen. These guys will always be missed!
Maybe 25 years ago, but the sentiment is the same. He is missed & is a legend.
OOPS!
I wish it was only 15 years ago, at the very least, he deserved 10 more years.
***** Don't forget Leon as Bob Burns calls him Mr.Humble
dreggymon Poor soul had such a tragic life, I hope he's enjoying eternal rest.
Steve Gaines was that fucking good!!
It tears me apart when I think about what could have been, but I am learning to be thankful for what we have. It isn't often that a band of this caliber finds each other, so I am gonna be grateful for what we got, and always yell "PLAY SOME SKYNYRD!"
Ronnie Van Zhant= Most underrated frontman in music history
he didn't need to run around like a monkey; no need to show off when you're that good.
Every single person on that stage is a master of their craft.
The best I ever saw that a rare about to sound live just like there records no other band could do that maybe Marshall tucker
@@stevennowlin8711 then the gentleman did what they set out to do! They wanted their live audiences to hear exactly what they’ve been hearing on their records at home…their songs performed note-for-note! 😀
@@MrsBillyKeys you got that right, sure got that right!
Gary Rossinton great guitarist
They are historic. Ronnie Van Zant was a natural leader and everyone knew that. I cant remember a problem ever with them. They just got better.
It’s amazing that three lead guitars would never “step on each others toes”, mix was always perfect
And from all I have heard & read, there were no hard feelings when it came to playing leads. Allen & Gary basically learned to play at same time, taught each other before they were in band together, that's one reason they play off each other so well. Ironically, when Allen 1st started playing, he wanted to play rhythm guitar, not lead.
Ed was great as well. They all did their thing & never stepped on toes, whatever was best for the band's sound.
Then Steve came along, just as good IMO as Ed but he just didn't get the time to prove himself to the masses but he would have been huge.
He sounded diff than Ed & brought vitality back to Gary & Allen. Everything was fresh again. He could also sing & write so triple threat. G & A were so happy when Steve joined, they went though songs, we did them as far as who would play what. It had been just the 2 of them after Ed left them high & dry so they were used to doin it all but they knew Skynyrd was it's best with the 3 guitar army & best 3 guitar army ever iMO. Love these guys
@@kathyrais574 Then you throw Steve Gains into the mix, and it's a complete tech nightmare. Gains was so far advanced except for Allen Collins, but they got along very well, as they saw a future for the band.
Because of LOVE AND RESPECT FOR THE MUSIC IT GAVE THEM LOVE AND RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER.
@@seanmcdaniel7041 true musicians 💘
@@flachlandbraut Absolutely!
Acapulco Gold. Well, I haven't heard that in about a long, long time. Good good, good good times, right alongside Skynyrd.
Awesome
This video is a national treasure. This is Skynyrd at their peak. even though it is b&w we are lucky to have this, and the audio is actually decent. Thank you Bill Graham for giving us this amazing look into the past...
Kids this is what a real rock n roll band looks like. Americana at its finest. Great music. I could watch this all night. No doubt about it.
Ronnie Van zant is such an incredible singer/songwriter... The whole band is tight, Steve Gaines is an absolute monster on guitar. Such an arsenal of top notch musicians. A complete joy to watch. Watch it about 5 times. Then tell me if you don't agree with every word I said 10/10.
AMEN!!!!!
You said it right, THANK YOU BILL GRAHAM
Prime Skynyrd. Steve Gaines wow just wow..that solo he created for the ending of Sweet Home is some of the best guitar work I've ever heard. Starts at 54:06. He does a bit of a better job with it on the One More From The Road version... still amazing.
Great comment
> Can't say it any better..
Saw the original line up many times. Huge part of my teen years. RIP those who are gone. And thank you.🙏
That must have been awesome, I was 12 when the plane crashed. I was really I to them and saddened.
Still love the originals and thankful someone recorded some of the shows.
@@rogerpoindexter849 im
The first concert I went to was Lynyrd Skynyrd and Foghat when I was 14. They blew Foghat away! Saw them 3 more times before the plane crash! I still have a bulletin board with all my concert tickets on it! I'm 62 now & still listen to them! 💯☝️🎸🎶🌟🎤😘🤩
You can see the adoration and pride in Ronnie's eyes as watches Gary, Allen and Steve play, but especially with Gary. These guys can take a shitty day and make it better in a song or two.. I can't help but wonder what they would be doing and sounding like now. I wish there were more live concerts sadly there isn't. God rest their souls and bless them. Rest easy. Thank you for all the wonderful, magical music 🎶 ❤️🎵
Rust in peace my friends 😢😢😢😢❤
I get a thrill out of watching Ronnie as he watches Gary Steve and Allen
Free bird this song never die 😭🐦❤️🐦🐦❤️❤️😭❤️❤️😭😭❤️
What a great time it was to be young back then! We didn’t know how good we had it!
I can only imagine how far this band could’ve went if the plane crash didn’t happen. They were amazing and made unforgettable music in the short time they had. Music is still played today in 2022. And it still rocks! ❤
And Becky, sweetheart, they ALWAYS WILL! This 😢 concert was months before the crash, I've NEVER found a band I love more, Ronnie has/had the voice that cannot be replaced or matched, what a horrific loss,one of a kind FOR SURE!
THEY HAD ARRIVED!
They had great success even after the crash, but it was.just never the same and not as good in my opinion. There have been other band that have done well after replacing the front man. Acdc comes to mind. But there just ain't no replacing Ronnie or Steve.
Just my opinion, I don't blame them for trying to carry on.
@@rogerpoindexter849 not the same band without Ronnie at all.
The plane crash robbed us all of so much more to come from Skynyard. I can see Bob Burns and Ed King both getting back with them. Even if for a song on an album or joining them on stage once and a while. So very sad!
Artimis kicks the shit out of the drums with solid grooves and great dynamics
The guitar solos in this concert are just sick! So much talent in this band. Not bad for a couple of Country Boys!
Not bad??? They are the greatest southern rock band ever!
Just think of what we missed out on because of that plane crash or if your a glass half full type then just think of what we got WOW
Watch the original free bird 1974 over 11minutes of just Allen Collins on solo.Longest guitar solo in history.
You better believe it, brother.
I'm a retired professional musician and when people ask me which Rock band is the best... THIS BAND no doubt.
If Gary and Ronnie were the heart of Skynyrd, then Allen Collins was the soul. His 6 minute blistering, mind blowing solo at the end of Freebird is worth the price of admission by itself. Best live concert I've ever seen in 20 yrs.
Aawwaweaaaasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa99aaa@aaa@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa@aaaaaaa@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawaaaaa@aaaaaaawa@aaaaaa@aaaaaaaaaa@aaaaaaaaa@@aaaaaaaa@aaaaq put
Hold on to your R.ossington Collins music if you got it
I agree with you there son. Rossington played about all the memorable guitar licks and Collins would come in and play unmatchable 10 minute solos! I can't separate them in my mind...they play off each other like they're one. Like Jimmy Page with 4 hands lol. When I share my list of top guitarists, I always list Rossington/Collins as one. You can't have one without the other imo. Steve Gaines is great, but he's no Ed King. There's more to playing with Skynyrd than speed. He would have learned though, he just needed to be "Skynyrdized" a little more.
Thank you.....I know so too ....❤😊
I believe they were just at their best right before the plane crash! That was such a tragedy. Imagine where they could have gone! Glad they left recorded music video for all of us! RIP LS
Ronnie was the coolest front man ever!
One of the greatest performances of Rock N Roll of all time.
Lenny Skynyrd was the very first Southern Rock and Roll Soul music no one has ever coppied them, but all bands that came after all evolved from LS THE GREAT
Completely right. No Automation or any other BS. What you heard is what you saw. Perfectally real,, what you saw is what you got, and it was perfctally exuacated. No One was any tighter.
@@joeawilson3813 loves music I play guitar and sing outside today love u always a rock star listen to bumping frog aka Woilio jumbo cloud aka the g.o.a.t the 25thstars Winston Salem NC my friends and family together we stand devising we lost the world is your and everything in it this is bumping frog aka Woilio jumbo cloud going to play live outside because u no something in the wind went u here no sound
@@joeawilson3813Did CCR come first? Two of my favorite bands of all time. Fogerty was from California, but spent time in Louisiana and was inspired by the southern sound.
@@juanlamaupin4213 I almost had a stroke trying to figure out what on earth you are saying here!!! 😂
It’s incredible how good they sound together. No auto tune or editing just raw talent on a stage together.
No auto tune because it’s literally 1977 and they have the best talent because of the hell house
@@garyrossingtonfan1833 Best there was, is, and will always be! Got that right!!
You got that right
You got that right
Current iteration is just a tribute band
RIP Gary..Thank you for putting 100 percent out at your shows...
2022 still brilliant
I was at this show. July 13, 1977. I was not quite 17. There was a black out in NYC that night. Great show. After, I waited for the limos to pull out and when they did I knocked on the window of one of them and waved and said, “Hey, Man!”…and someone with long kinky hair - I believe it was Allen (the windows were tinted), flashed me a peace sign. I’ll always remember that.
That must’ve been amazing man.
Great story man. I saw them a little over a week before this. I was 13, and I'll never forget it as well. Bill Graham Presents: Day on the Green, Peter Frampton, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Santana and The Outlaws. If you've ever seen "Freebird, the Movie" the performance of Freebird at the end is the show I was at. What a great memory, and chance of a lifetime to see this lineup. Saw them a few times after, but nothing will ever compare to that day. 🤘
never happened, child.
Great memory! 🤘
on the hunt tour gimmie back my bullets and the live album were the shows i went to in Seattle Wash. the On the Hunt show was at the 3,200 seat Paramount Theater i turned to the crowd during FreeBird and everybody was playing air guitar lol
Man, Steve was a great addition to the line up, love his style. Ronnie put together the perfect band
He was never recognized by musicians but he was great!!
Thanks to Cassie! She's the one who finally talked the rest of the guys in to trying him out! At first she told them how good he was and they didn't believe her... Ha, boy did he show them!!
22,000 likes, no dislikes. That's the way it should be!
Omg Steve and Ronnie sing so good together. Can u Only imagine what could’ve been. 😢😢
Less than 100 days later, the world lost some incredibly talented people in that tragic plane crash. I was always just a casual fan, good music is good music after all. Then I saw the documentary, If I Leave Here Tomorrow, and it made me appreciate the band so much more. Absolutely raw, unfiltered, off the charts talent, coupled with hard work, dedication and totally devoid of any bullshit or pretense, their legacy will live on forever. RIP those that have passed on.
AMEN BROTHER g
Blown away by Steve Gaines.
you got that right sister!
He was a brilliant musician and great person.
God bless the Skynyrd Nation
Best live band ever,they had there shit together..👍
These guys were always so tight and well rehearsed. The three guitar attack was always intense. Fond memories of a better time.
GREATEST rock&roll band EVER. Stones aint even close.
Trond Solem for probably the last 30 years I've been hard core over zeppelin being the best ever. nowadays, I'm starting to think skynyrd was just as good.
+txdrifter38 heard them first time in -76. Played them for a long time. Now recently its getting as new to me again - and getting even better. How sad, watching this brings tears to my eyes.
Stone's would be terrified, to follow Skynyrd 1977, on stage, no one better!
@@joemasse4568 I think people would leave after Skynyrd got done playing
I love the Tshirt Ronnie wore a few time that said "Who in the fuck are the Rolling Stones anyway?"
Ronnie was one of a kind, with 3 of the best guitarist ever.
Gary is an absolute machine
It’s amazing how they had three incredible lead guitarists and they were able to balance it to absolute perfection
That presition comes from love and respect for werever is we do with other people this was times of long hair drug's women fun but also integrity and love for the music and what you do today People got I don't give a shit mentality and that is why you have bad music and no bands like almond or skiner or the death the world in the south runs on ignorance guns and violence
This right here, is why I think they are better than Led Zeppelin, because even though Jimmy Page may be a better guitar player overall, he was too busy showing off, leaving the band to have to try to catch up and keep up.
@@sixshooter500 Jimmy Page although great for his time, and innovatively genius, couldn't hold the guitar strap of one of these cats.
Lots and lots of practice my friend 😉.
Those mushrooms didn't hurt anything either.
Now this is skynyrd...Ronnie just can't be replaced. His voice, style and energy will NEVER be duplicated..even by his own brother
AINT IT THE TRUTH RONNIE RULED !!!The STAGE 😁g
Imo Skynyrd died the night Ronnie died😢
INDEED!
like with every famous singer there are likely many people right now who can sing exactly like him but there's always something that gets in the way of hiring the perfect replacement, in this case family. Right now there is at least one guy who can sing exactly like Layne Staley, Ive heard him on yt but for whatever reason AIC keeps the black guy who sings very well but sounds nothing like Layne. It's a shame, an established great band is a rarity and when a component is lost, the replacement should be as close to the original as possible, identical would be ideal.
@@joejones9520 Thanks for sharing this nonsense.
Love anything Lynyrd Skynyrd does. Go Skynyrd Nation
MY FAVORITE GROUP ! THEY WERE THE BEST FOR COUNTRY STYLE MUSIC. LONG LIVE SKYNARD!
This is when a concert was a concert, paying the dues, playing the blues, hard working band at its best.
What I loved About the Band every song told a story or a message😜American Made
@@timothygard8517 you damn right that smell about drinking and driving I’ll tell how wrote that song days before writing Allen Collins one of there guitar player got into a drunk driving accident and how the song came about needle and the spoon about the dangers of heroine I could go own and own I know every song word for word Ronnie Van zant wrote or the band wrote with Ronnie singing or Steve gains he sung in a couple songs
@@jacobstacy588 it's about Gary's accident.
@@joejones9520 I know they both got in to several drunk driving accidents what paralyzed Allen Collins
@@jacobstacy588 but his was yrs after the song, even after the plane crash. Oddly, Collins had wrecked his car in the exact same spot sometime before the second wreck that paralyzed him and killed gf.
As a teenager growing up in the '70's in Jacksonville, these guys were like family to me. Loved each one of them and miss them dearly. Long live Lynyrd Skynyrd!
Amen to that. Growing up in the 70s was the best. 1970 thru 1978 we all were rocking to Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Bros, Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, A R S, U2, & so many more.
I was exactly 10 years old when this was filmed.Born on 7/13/1967 This is by far the Greatest Band to ever play for us. They now live on thru all of us that keep on loving there music..............................................................................................
"If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?" Yes Ronnie, we'll remember you and your music for a long long time.
Forevermore. Always in my heart. I too hope to see them when I get Home to Heaven. I truly believe Ronnie was saved by grace.
FOREVER Guys and Cassie
Yes wood u remember me?
Gaines, what a talent
+Greg Patterson Yeah!
Greg Patterson what could have been. he was a true talent. I got a little sick watching want to tell them what is going to happen in a couple of months. sad. southern pride.
Ronnie saw the talent & skill he had & added him to the band right away... Ronnie knew talent when he saw it....
Huge loss... we only seen a snub of what he offered... reminds me a lot of John Frusciante.....
yes
Ronnie gone but never forgotten!!!
This is so great !
RVZ knew his shit....and was a great conductor of the band
Billy Powell is with no doubt a legend piano guy.
✨❤️✨
I will never forget this band. My fav ❤
This is when music was synonymous with culture, not it's destruction.
watching steven Gaines perform you got that right is priceless
very good
he never went by Steven.
His death is what breaks me up the most about that plane crash. He was finally succeeding after years of work, had a baby girl on the way, and it just ended. He was also just an amazing guy overall.
He had the better range too. So much f'n talent!
Yes it was priceless. Ronnie stepped back and let the kid go. Good Stuff
To the idiots that thumb down you don't know great rock n roll😜. They were the best RIP to all of them that has passed. Thank goodness my 12 yr old is smart and loves them too❤️
These guys were absolutely loaded with talent
I remember in a little town with 200 people leaving school at lunch walking across the street and turning the Jukebox up at the pizza joint that I worked at listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd sitting there by myself because I had the key to the place. That's when I really started getting into Lynyrd Skynyrd. I remember listening to their new songs and it was like the next day in class a little red-haired girl handed me a note saying Lynyrd Skynyrd died in a plane crash last night. Just kind of sticks with you you know. We lost some very fine people and it should have never happened
Perfect video if you ever needed a reminder about how damned special and talented this band was! They deserved so much more than a rickety plane ride.
The ladies on back-up vocals were SUCH a great addition to the live show.
They were and one was never paid, to my knowledge. I can say, I wouldn't have accepted the no pay, live the life and sing/play. What an experience from the stage.
Steve Gaines sister Cassie was one of the ladies.she told Ronnie when they were looking for another guitarist that her little brother Steve plays guitar,.... and boy she wasn't lying..
@@michaelreed5540 And bless her heart, she didn't want to get on that plane. She was scared. Wanted to ride with the roadies. But instead she had an appointed time to fly Home.
@@l.ellei.sorensen4121 of COURSE they were paid!
@@MrsBillyKeys I wasn't being angry about it, nor judgmental. It was said, during an interview and I know much about interviews too. I had others mention to me discussions about the label leaving the decision up to the band, and sometimes...it would be best to listen to those with a vested interest and I think they'd still be here. Nevertheless, one of the most influential bands of my life! I saw their last concert in SLC, just before the horrible incident. Still have that ticket stub!
Masters! There'll never be another line up / band like this
Your so right man!
Any younger people out there jamming to this? 30 years old here. I just feel like Ill never find someone my age that really appreciates this type of music aside from the hits. I jam with my dad, uncles and their friends all the time!!!!!! This music is so great!
I would give anything to see these guys live. No other band will ever compare to them.
You can say that again
Yes true they are legend
I thought the present line up was great. I can only imagine how good this group would have been to see them live
I just saw them this past summer. They ROCKED!! But I agree, the original players would have probably taken my breath away! #SkynardNation
Your right
Ronnie Van Zant. What a fucking legend. One of my heroes without doubt, made it look so effortless. A huge loss to Music.
true! concentrated coolness? lol
I wish they could've had a camera behind the piano, during the Breeze solo! He was smoking them keys!
THE MOST REALISTIC PEOPLE THAT I EVER MET IN PERSON NO ONE WILL NEVER BE NO REAL OF A PERSON THAN RONNIE VAN ZANT THAT I MET IN PERSON IN JULY OF 1977 BEFORE HIS PASSING IN OCT. 1977 . I LOVE AND MISS YOU RONNIE YOU ARE TRULY ONE OF A KIND.
A GREAT LOSS TO THE ENTIRE WORLD WAY TO EARLY TO ME.
Steve Gains was ready to take these boys to the next level. That boy was hot!!!
trudaroof gaines took control over this band
Maybe a better singer than ronnie too. But ronnie wrote great lyrics
Interesting that Leon sang with Ronnie on 'Call Me the Breeze' tho. Steve coulda done that too 8)
Leon sang backup with Ronnie plenty other times in the Ed King version of the band and before Steve came along on songs like of course The Breeze, Gimme three steps, I'm a Country boy, Got the same old blues and Alabama with Ed and Ronnie before the girl singers came along too.
fuknArite Steve Gaines was taking them above and beyond,we will never know what could have been..we know, but we never got the chance to experience the next big thing after Street Survivors follow up....
If there is a heaven for me, I get to see every show from the late 60s till 1977
Our ideas of heaven are very alike
+James Ebert I'm coming there too.
I will see u there brother !!!🤘
Just sitting here at 6:45 watching Freebird and it's October 20th 2021.
It's hard to wrap my head around it but it's been 44 years who would have known
Came to listen to it to celebrate the band today as well! Rock on!
Had tickets to se them in 77 at MSG. Two weeks before the show the unfortunate happened. Cried my eyes out. They are the greatest band ever!! RIP all who passed. You’re legacy lives.
Do you still have the tickets?
@@el_duderino_man lol unfortunately I used them to see Nugent. No regrets.
@@scotttrainor5660 Nice!
It's a shame that with so many great songs by this band, "classic rock" radio only plays two or three of their songs over and over.
Depends on the market you live in.
Who listens to commercial radio anymore?
Back in '77 FM radio in NY Philly area played deeper cuts of most bands. Whole album sides , more requests etc. Radio and media in general has just gotten shallow. Satellite radio doesn't impress me for classic rock, my own collection has more to offer, just hit shuffle.
But thank goodness we have the technology to witness this band at their peak. I only fantasized this would be possible back in the 70s.
Yep, so much great shit that a lot of folks have never heard. (edit) glad I'm not one of 'em. Gimme some Mississippi Kid and some Was I right or wrong
There has never been nor ever will be a band that can hold a candle to this great, honest,talented, unique, one of a kind, super southern band!!!
I will say this. They busted their ass on stage
Agreed.
40 years we been playin loud n proud mighty Lynyrd Skynyrd!!They toured the Eastern states of Australia and NOT Western Australia!!Fuk we were pissed off!!We heard about there tour after they had been n gone!!!Hope they come back n we get to know about it!!!Live To Ride Ride To Live
Johnny Reb agree not a chance
Johnny Reb you're right. These guys were absolutely the very best.
No one can ever doubt the superb musicianship of Skynyrd watching this. Unbelievably masterful and tight.
When free bird started playing I broke down crying really hard saying why just why
All Ronnie had to do was stand there and sing. What a voice.
AMEN💋💋💋💋💋💋
And fucking barefoot too!!!
AND a cold Budweiser.
I was there with my now departed dad at age 15. My first and best concert after 39 years ..the magic was unreal. I've played in bands and been to numerous shows ...pop rock jazz..r&b..rap...etc.. nothing compares to these boys from Jacksonville..a freak of nature.
James Gowan u said it man
I was there too...at age 13
Alan Collins was SOOOO hot. 😍😍
AWESOME
Wow, that is like the ultimate first concert to attend. It's even better that your dad took you and you shared it with him.
Ronnie had the best mules I've ever heard play together! FIRE 🔥
I love that Ronnie gave Allen, Steve, Gary and Leon the spotlight during Freebird
I just imagine what Steve and Ronnie could have done beyond their last album. Two great talented singers, song writers.
Yes of course but Allen and Gary were no slouches either with Allen writing this ripping tune That Smell
Don't forget Cassie.
Yes sir. We are very lucky to have this footage of Steve. Singing & playing song from Street Survivors. He was really finding his place in the band & sounded amazing! Just a tip of the iceberg we would have seen from him
@@kathyrais574 I agree. His guitar playing seemed to bring life to the other guitarists. Ronnie seems to have enjoyed being on stage with him.
@@blakegregory969 He was a triple threat, he played mean ass guitar, wrote lyrics & sang so I think it revitalized whole band
When I die and go to heaven I'm going to see them perform at no cost.. R.I.P guys love ya!!!!
If you gone a die,you free like a bird! Maybe an eagle :-)
Me too Regina. Just to see them one more time....I have to wait for when I go home to see these amazing artists.
@@ariedekoning6377 yes!!!I I want to be the Eagle tho.
I know Ronnie I've known him for years lives in Cocoa Beach we party all the time the guy's a blast
I just " discovered " them tonight. Man do I miss them.
Hello, how are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.
I have so much gratitude that I was able to see them in concert twice. The second time, I think was Angel Stadium in 1977...
ronnie may be the most Alpha band leader ever. every member plays hard for his approval. never seen anything like it
Love his energy conserving style to lol. No need to compromise the voice at show with dancin a jig for the crowd. Grab the mic and sing you badass.
He could be a real POS Bless His Heart and Soul
Best American rock band EVER IMO!
A-Fucking-Men
napoleon complex for sure.
That's 4 great guitarist including Leon!!!!!
I learned guitar riffs but became a bassist with Leon W as the main influence. NOBODY could walk like Leon. That smell is Am and he's blues walking! All brilliant musicians.
Cant 4get Leon haa!!!Cheers Bruthas frm So.caL.🍻😊👍🇺🇸
I will never ever get tired of Skynyrd. Ever.
I love the piano man! That's Billy Powell on the piano. They brought him along for a reason, he's ROCK-N-ROLL too.
Awesome Jam............
What a band, unbelievable. The 70's were the best.
Best Band Ever!
+Robert Lamb You got that right
Black Sabbath!!! didn't you see behind the music on lynerd skynerd!?
What a fantastic concert! I love every song! Steve Gaines was an incredibly talented singer and guitarist! Oh how i wish that plane never took off that day! EVERYONE in this lineup was a special breed of musician! Gary may you rest in peace my brother. I will never forget you or your incredible guitar playing!
Every song in their stash is phenomenal. I love them
Sitting here in tears, reminded of how powerful this music is. The songcraft, the honesty, the BGVs, and my God, the guitars.
The 425 people who disliked this have to clue the musicianship they’re witnessing. What a band there’s nothing like it
There at a total loss of one of the greatest bands of all time! Long live LS forever!! They missed one of the greatest ever. Probably one of the tightest bands ever...
I was at this concert. I lived in Ocean Grove that summer. I remember lots of rebel flags in the crowd and people passing around drinks in big glass unmarked jugs.
I also remember being almost deaf when we got out. My date and I were shouting at each other on the boardwalk because we couldn't hear a thing. It was a great show.
I am the guitar player I am today because of this band! I was 10 years old when I first heard the band, lighted a fire under my ass! I'm a, no pun intended, "a simple man" and because of these guys, In the 80'S I was able to play my guitar along with a 9 to 5 job and support my family, those times were tough but because I learned to play guitar from these guys I was capable of supporting my family and for that, I thank you!!
I always knew they had great riffs and some epic solos but after stumbling onto this concert today, I have a new level of respect for those guitarists along with the rest of the band. Between this concert and your comment, I'm definitely feeling inspired to go pick up my guitar and learn the tabs for every song on this setlist!! 🤘
Steve Gaines and Ronnie on (Got that right), damn their voices blend so well....this band was one hell of a power house....oh to be a singer and have these guys on both sides pure power 🔥🎸LOVE THEM MULES...YES SIR!!!!....EVERY LEAD SINGERS DREAM❤️🙏🎸
you got that right!
