As an old fart, it still amazes me that there are some people who have never heard these songs. I enjoy “discovering” them for the first time through your experiences. Great video.
10 years ago my wife developed cancer and this was one of the songs on my playlist that I couldn’t listen to anymore. This, and Wild Horses. She survived and recovered and we now have 2 grandsons that she got to see.
The older I get the more I appreciate Lynyrd Skynyrd they really had it all together. Today's music holds nothing on this great and I mean great band . The musicians were at the top of their game concert after concert never missing a beat God I miss the original Skynyrd rest in peace ❤😢😢
@@bcholio The "revived" Skynyrd started in 1987 I think. Brother Johnny on vocals; not even close to Ronnie's vocals. My opinion. I did get to see Leon, Billy, & Gary perform; they were great. Those guys have all passed away now.
This was written by Lead singer Ronnie Van Zandt about his one-time girlfriend named "Tuesday," like the actress Tuesday Weld. This was such a great band.
LOL Theres going to be a lot of gen z people that are going to say Tuesday WHO. A beautiful blonde from the early days of tv.. She was dobie Gillis love interest in The Many Loves Of Dobie Gillis !!!! More who's can be heard .....
I think it's odd that when you ask most fans what their favorite Skynyrd song is, most will say "Sweet Home Alabama" or "Freebird". Hardly anyone says this song, but it's been my favorite since I started listening to these guys. The rift is outstanding.
This rabbit hole is so deep. Try CALL ME THE BREEZE, WORKIN' FOR MCA, BALLAD OF CURTIS LOEW, I AIN'T THE ONE, WHAT'S YOUR NAME, SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL. So many to choose from and they are all fire! 🔥
When I was in high school we had a Team Rolling Stones vs Team The Who. A few years later we were debating Allman Bros vs Lyrd Skynrd. Both were essentially ridiculous debates, because the reality is both teams were winners - we didn't have to choose!! And now 50 years later we're still basking in their greatness. Man we had the best music!
This was also used in the movie DAZED AND CONFUSED but many of us just grew up with this on the radio once every couple of days. The 70s and earlier 90s were the best times to listen to FM radio.
Slow down there, "Tuesday's Gone" is a great tune but Skynyrd has a plethora of great tunes to choose from. Gimmie Three Steps, Sweet Home Alabama, Give Me Back My Bullets, Saturday Night Special, Call Me The Breeze (my favorite), What's Your Name, You Got That Right, Working For MCA, Ballad Of Curtis Lowe (my second favorite), That Smell, Whiskey Rock-A-Roller, Don't Ask Me No Questions, I Know A Little, Needle And The Spoon, Swamp Music etc., etc......You've got a few more to listen to before proclaiming one to be the best. "Tuesday's Gone" excellent, the best - maybe not.
😂😂you are a LS fan! I recognize one when I see one! Love love the talent and the music for years! Sweet Hime and gimme three steps( I love the story they tell 😊
Beautiful, beautiful song. It's an amazing and somber feeling all at the same time thinking that if you just change out the name, you feel like the band made this song just for you. I lost my wife to cancer five years ago to cancer, so thank you Lynyrd Skynyrd for writing "Mila's Gone". Train roll on.
RVZ was amazing, and I still miss him to this day, and I love all of Skynyrd, but one person who doesn't get his due, and his joining the band from being a roadie ascended the bands sound in a major way, was Billy Powell. Exceptional piano player!!
90 percent of their recordings were taken in one take. They practice their songs until perfection and then go to the studio a lay it down. They didn’t have any money and wanted to hold down cost. It’s great you pick up on how tight the band was playing.
Tuesday is his girlfriends name in the song. After the plane crash the lead singers brother Johnny Van Zandt was recruited to be the lead singer. There is another brother Donnie that is a member of .38 Special. The two brothers teamed up to record a couple of albums. I like Help Somebody and Get Right With The Man from those albums.
There are so many Skynrd songs that are outstanding! Deep cuts that you don't hear that often. Mr banker, swamp music, all I can do is write about it, and made in the shade, are just a few. "You got it made in the shade baby, don't let that tree fall down on you"!!
👍 Time keeps on ticking... Fall of '73, my cousin opened a record store. (remember those? lol) I installed his audio system in the store. My other cousin, his brother, had just come from seeing Lynyrd Skynyrd open for The Who's Quadrophenia tour in Atlanta. The 1st record played on the system was Pronounced, the 1st Skynyrd album. After being blown away by Free Bird, we played Quadrophenia. Memories
It is heartbreaking and honestly kind of weird how very many music legends were lost in plane crashes. Skynard and other great ones like CCR was 100% my music of choice as a kid. And i saw many of them live. Legends.
You are the music reviewer that I love to watch the most. I was lucky enough to have grown up during this era of the best music ever, so I like to see other’s reactions to it. I love that you read the lyrics and can get emotional about many of the songs, and you appreciate the way music was done back then… nothing fake about it. 😊
A lot of bands suffered losses, mostly due to drugs or plane crashes...We had a shift in music style from "rock-a-billy" to "rock & roll" with the plane crash on February 3rd, 1959 (the day music died, referred to in "American Pie") when the "Big Bopper", "Ritchie Valens" & "Buddy Holly" died...Off topic : check out the "JOYO15WDC-15S" amp...
I'm 26 and skynyrd wad the 1st band that really made me find music and deep dive around the age of 17. I was lucky enough to go and see skynyrd several times before Gary passed. Listening and watch him rip into those legendary slides sent chills up my back. Also watching the crowd some how ooze with this calm, excitement, and appreciation. Was magical.
Always been my fav. Skynyrd song. Girls back in the day used to be Tuesday, some people thinks he's speaking about a woman leaving him on Tuesday. (Tuesday Weld is a famous actress from the 70s).
Check out "Sweet Home Alabama" one of their biggest hits. After the deaths of a lot of the original members, they re-formed in 1987 with Ronnie Van Zant's younger brother Johnny singing lead. Fun fact: Ronnie Van Zant never wrote down his lyrics to a song. He memorized them.
This song is in Dazed and Confused and it’s set to the end of a late night outside high school kegger and it’s a perfect song for that moment. For us that lived that in the 80’s it’s so bittersweet it hurts.
When this recorded there was no such thing as a digital sample so if you wanted to add strings you called In session musicians. I confess to being old but there is a lot to be said for actual musicianship!
Song is about Ronnie’s divorce from his First Wife, it became final on a Tuesday… Their producer Al Kooper played bass guitar and Robert Nix from the band Atlanta Rhythm Section played the drums
I am in Alabama and grew up in a musical family. I have two brothers and a husband who are musicians. This was one of the top songs they would play at the bars followed directly by "Jesus Just Left Chicago" by ZZ Top...perfect duo. You ought to listen to that one. It's epic!
I'm 42, I saw my dad cry two times in my life. I was 14 driving up front with my dad in the station wagon. This song came on, he started crying, and when he saw me notice him, he said this was the song that was played at his best friend's funeral when he was 17. I'm the oldest, and he said, "please play this at my funeral." Thankfully he is still alive, but I know what song I'm supposed to play. Everytime I hear this...I get weird and want to be left alone. I love you dad.
This is song writing at its finest. Funny how all the best songs were written in the 1960s and '70s. And before anyone says there are good songs written today, that's true. But you have to dig for them and it seems garbage songs are embraced by today's audiences as if there is no difference between bad writing and good writing -- and singing and performing. In the 1970s we were hit with timeless masterpieces almost every day of the week. I can make a list if you want.
Having grown up inJacksonville all my life, and listening to Skynyrd from the beginning (yes I’m THAT old), I can honestly say this is the first time I have ever heard someone use the phrase “listening to Skynyrd, pouring myself a latte”…!!😅😮
I love Lynyrd skynyrd. They came out in my late teens and I absolutely fell in love. And I'm still in love to this day.. I'm going to have, aAl I Can Do is Write About It, played at my memorial service. YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT JEFF HEALEY, SEE THE LIGHT, NIGHT MUSIC 88. You will not be disappointed
This is my husband's favorite LS song too. He very much dislikes Sweet Home Alabama, because of over play in STL. He discovered Tuesday's Gone from Happy Gilmore too. I was raised on all these eras/genres of music. Check out *Ballad of Curtis Loew, there's a poignant message in it.*
LS didn't screw up they used to get in fistfight's when they screwed up practicing at Hell house 12 hours a day if not longer. They were probably the tightest band in concert. Just an amazing band!!!!
You need to go down the Skynyrd rabbit hole - you won't be disappointed. Next up should be something off of their Street Survivors album, which was released days before the plane crash. I suggest "That Smell," "What's Your Name," and "I Know A Little." Their live album, "One More From the Road," has great versions of their songs and some seriously good covers of "T For Texas," "Call Me the Breeze" and "Crossroads."
About the "old reecording" thing. Analog tape had its drawbacks, but analog recordings retain some of the warmth in the sound of the music that can be heard when you're in the same studio/room with the band. Digital recording has some great advantages, but it generally lacks that warm sound.
Sebs, I'm here to support you, but let's face it, listening to some Lynyrd Skynyrd doesn't hurt. 😊 Only bad thing about all their songs is they are all too short.
This here were a tight bunch of talented folks, very significant southern rock Gods🤘❤️. Major part of my youth along with foghat and of course the beatles
My second favorite band... only because of Led Zeppelin being my favorite. They have a deep rabbit hole with some stellar deep cuts. Love them. Check out these, Needle and the Spoon, That Smell, Mr Banker, Four Walls of Raiford,
Saw them last year, gonna see them this week. They are doing a show with ZZTop ( Sharped Dresses Man). I work for an amphitheater where on average I see 20 bands per season. The last 4 years has been amazing.
I know many of us say that "this band or that band, has a deep rabbit hole" but.... Skynyrd doesn't have a single bad song. Some might be better or more familiar but they are all great! So many "deep cuts" could/should have been singles and hits! "Four Walls Of Raiford" "Was I Right Or Wrong" "Cry For The Bad Man" "Things Going On" "Searching" "Double Trouble" Like i said, EVERY song! "Coming Home" "Preacher's Daughter"
Thank all that it is good that we have a record store nearby. There is something soothing about being surrounded by all that music. I am working on building up my album collection to pass to my son and grandchildren.
You should here it from the live album “One More From the Road “ Skynyrd was the consummate live band imho, I was blessed enough to see them three months before the plane crash and I emphasize on Blessed!
Interesting fact: Drummer Bob Burns wasn’t feeling well on the day this track was recorded so Robert Nix of Atlanta Rhythm Section filled in and nailed it in one take.
That recording sound you’re referring to is what’s called the muscle Shoals sound. That’s where Southern rock ‘n’ roll was invented when Dwayne Allman and Wilson Pickett recorded a cover of the Beatles hey Jude. That is what is widely accepted as the very southern rock ‘n’ roll song.
Dude, it was the 60s and 70s, Tuesday was her name. I dated a girl named Jupiter. I called her jupe for short. We saw the Skynard live at least 10 times in the 70s.
As an old fart, it still amazes me that there are some people who have never heard these songs. I enjoy “discovering” them for the first time through your experiences. Great video.
As an old fart as Wei, I second that emotion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From one old fart to another, I feel the same way.
Yep
Me too!
Me too!
10 years ago my wife developed cancer and this was one of the songs on my playlist that I couldn’t listen to anymore. This, and Wild Horses.
She survived and recovered and we now have 2 grandsons that she got to see.
“Call Me The Breeze” is one of their best songs. It was written by the late great J.J. Cale.
Dang, I just said the same thing!
My all time favorite
The older I get the more I appreciate Lynyrd Skynyrd they really had it all together. Today's music holds nothing on this great and I mean great band . The musicians were at the top of their game concert after concert never missing a beat God I miss the original Skynyrd rest in peace ❤😢😢
'That smell' should be your next skynard song it's just brilliant when you dive into it.
True Skynyrd fans know that all of their best music was from the pre-crash era ( October ‘77 )
Facts
I got to see them and Charlie Daniels before the crash..
It was just amazing..
Without Ronnie there was no Skynyrd.
Was there any skynyrd music after?
@@bcholio The "revived" Skynyrd started in 1987 I think. Brother Johnny on vocals; not even close to Ronnie's vocals. My opinion. I did get to see Leon, Billy, & Gary perform; they were great. Those guys have all passed away now.

Skynyrd made beautiful music. The Southern Rock gods, IMHO.
Thanks for the reaction.

😂😂you are a LS fan! I recognize one when I see one! Love love the talent and the music for years! Sweet Hime and gimme three steps( I love the story they tell 😊
the thing is all of those songs are so damn good that you couldn't really question any one being someones favorite.
@@dalegribble49 correct but ya gotta hear more then 3 of those tunes before coming to a conclusion - that's all.
I Aint The One & I Need You would hold up to any of these too. Skynyrd is such a great band
The guitar…the piano…man..they just weep and sing beautifully together…Tuesdays gone💖
I don't think I have ever heard a Lynyrd Skynard song that I didn't like, these guys were awesome !!!!
Every SKYNYRD song is a story in the lives of the band, this was and still is the absolute best band for real life songs.
There was NOTHING like the sound of the Lynyrd Skynyrd guitar
Beautiful, beautiful song. It's an amazing and somber feeling all at the same time thinking that if you just change out the name, you feel like the band made this song just for you. I lost my wife to cancer five years ago to cancer, so thank you Lynyrd Skynyrd for writing "Mila's Gone". Train roll on.
So sorry for your loss. 😢
RVZ was amazing, and I still miss him to this day, and I love all of Skynyrd, but one person who doesn't get his due, and his joining the band from being a roadie ascended the bands sound in a major way, was Billy Powell. Exceptional piano player!!
My oldest Granddaughter was born on a Tuesday. I used to rock her to sleep and sing this song. Now I a rocking her two little girls.
That's beautiful.
Gosh, where does the time go? My great-grandson (age 3) is coming to visit from Iowa tomorrow!

To be fair, touring musicians spend an unusual amount of time in modes of transportation.
@@drenkin Right and those smaller personal planes they used were way more prone to crashing than the bigger planes
I’m odd but the Ballad of Curtis Loew is one of my fav’s.
Good taste
Tuesdays' Gone and Simple Man are their best songs.
My 2 favorite

Well said.
It’s my favorite LS song, as well. We’ve loved them since they first hit the scene back in the 70,s. Nice reaction vid. Thumbs up!
Ms C & Cutter
Gimme Three Steps is a fun one from them you could check out. Written about a real experience. 😉
The great Robert Nix played the drums on this track. He was the drummer for another great band, Atlanta Rhythm Section.
A lot of bands suffered losses, mostly due to drugs or plane crashes...We had a shift in music style from "rock-a-billy" to "rock & roll" with the plane crash on February 3rd, 1959 (the day music died, referred to in "American Pie") when the "Big Bopper", "Ritchie Valens" & "Buddy Holly" died...Off topic : check out the "JOYO15WDC-15S" amp...
Finally, someone is doing my favorite Skynyrd song. The live from Atlanta album version is my favorite version. THANK YOU

Try 'Mr. Banker'. It's a tear jerker. Just pure raw emotion.
Or, 'I need you'. Great guitar sound and beautiful lyrics.
Skynyrd all day!
When this recorded there was no such thing as a digital sample so if you wanted to add strings you called In session musicians. I confess to being old but there is a lot to be said for actual musicianship!
it was a mellotron
Song is about Ronnie’s divorce from his First Wife, it became final on a Tuesday… Their producer Al Kooper played bass guitar and Robert Nix from the band Atlanta Rhythm Section played the drums

Plays during closing credits in the great “Happy Gilmore.” Absolute classic.
The Ballad of Curtis Lowe, On the Hunt & Every Mothers Son are not mentioned much when it comes to Skynyrd but are awesome tunes.
One of my favorite songs ever . Sebs killing it with these Bangers.
Check out "They Call Me the Breeze" written by JJ Cale. Skynyrd nailed it!
Having grown up inJacksonville all my life, and listening to Skynyrd from the beginning (yes I’m THAT old), I can honestly say this is the first time I have ever heard someone use the phrase “listening to Skynyrd, pouring myself a latte”…!!😅😮
Another great southern rock band. Enjoy
Check out their song “ All I can do is write about it “ another great song that gets overlooked by reactors.
This is my favourite LS song too. Love everything about the song especially the piano and keyboards
Give Me Two Steps is an amazing song. Gotta take a listen to that.
Three.
I love Lynyrd skynyrd. They came out in my late teens and I absolutely fell in love. And I'm still in love to this day.. I'm going to have, aAl I Can Do is Write About It, played at my memorial service. YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT JEFF HEALEY, SEE THE LIGHT, NIGHT MUSIC 88. You will not be disappointed
WOW, The very first notes of the guitar its crying... PAZ Y AMOR
I'm going to see them next weekend with my 21 year old nephew. Passing it down!
They are simply the best. ❤️
This is my husband's favorite LS song too. He very much dislikes Sweet Home Alabama, because of over play in STL. He discovered Tuesday's Gone from Happy Gilmore too. I was raised on all these eras/genres of music.
Check out *Ballad of Curtis Loew, there's a poignant message in it.*
Glad you finally got to this one!! You still have many, many to go!!!
Curtis Lowe
Gimme 3 steps
What's your name
T for Texas
Call me the breeze
LS didn't screw up they used to get in fistfight's when they screwed up practicing at Hell house 12 hours a day if not longer. They were probably the tightest band in concert. Just an amazing band!!!!

Curtis low is another good one
Probably don't realize but This band also did the breeze. Give me 3 steps. sweet home Alabama..
Love the bass line in this one, such great work. Keep listening to great music :)
Sebs, I'm here to support you, but let's face it, listening to some Lynyrd Skynyrd doesn't hurt. 😊 Only bad thing about all their songs is they are all too short.
Brings me back to my high school/college years.
The live version is so much better. Worth a listen!
Check out Chris Stapleton doing southern rock when he was with The Jompson Brothers, "Invisible" is an awesome song that most haven't heard.
This here were a tight bunch of talented folks, very significant southern rock Gods🤘❤️. Major part of my youth along with foghat and of course the beatles
Billy Powell hitting those keys! I really miss those guys. Going to a Skynyrd show was an experience I can’t explain. I guess you had to be there.
Thanks for this Sebs. I lived that era and heard LS on radio which didn’t do them justice. Thanks for brining that to my attention.
In the Lynyrd Skynyrd realm, please do .38 Special - Hold on Loosely. Great tune, double drum kits...just a satisfying wall of sound.
This happens to be their first album, with this, Simple Man, & the studio version of Freebird on it.
Im lovin 'Every Mothers Son'. The live version from the 'Old Grey Whistle Test' concert.
My second favorite band... only because of Led Zeppelin being my favorite. They have a deep rabbit hole with some stellar deep cuts. Love them. Check out these, Needle and the Spoon, That Smell, Mr Banker, Four Walls of Raiford,
Saw them last year, gonna see them this week. They are doing a show with ZZTop ( Sharped Dresses Man). I work for an amphitheater where on average I see 20 bands per season. The last 4 years has been amazing.
I saw them last year in West Palm Beach. They were awesome.
I know many of us say that "this band or that band, has a deep rabbit hole" but.... Skynyrd doesn't have a single bad song. Some might be better or more familiar but they are all great! So many "deep cuts" could/should have been singles and hits!
"Four Walls Of Raiford"
"Was I Right Or Wrong"
"Cry For The Bad Man"
"Things Going On"
"Searching"
"Double Trouble"
Like i said, EVERY song!
"Coming Home"
"Preacher's Daughter"
The Most Underrated Band in History. A group of friends that could DO IT ALL.
Blasted this with the windows rolled down leading my great grandmas funeral precession to the grave yard. Great song
I agree with you sebs.... my favorite Skynyrd song!
I was born in the 50’s and saw many cartoons. The music they used was classical! So we learned about all musical genres! ✌🏼
Great concert-there are times I'm happy to be old as dirt 😊
Thank all that it is good that we have a record store nearby. There is something soothing about being surrounded by all that music. I am working on building up my album collection to pass to my son and grandchildren.
You should here it from the live album “One More From the Road “ Skynyrd was the consummate live band imho, I was blessed enough to see them three months before the plane crash and I emphasize on Blessed!
"That Smell", Is a MUST DO!
"That Smell" is my favorite Skynyrd song.
In regard to the plane crash in '77, check out the song "Brickyard Road," a tribute from the reformed band to their lost bandmates.✌️❤️
Interesting fact: Drummer Bob Burns wasn’t feeling well on the day this track was recorded so Robert Nix of Atlanta Rhythm Section filled in and nailed it in one take.
I spent some time with Robert Nix on several occasions (friend of my dad’s). He was a character and a story teller. Great guy, one hell of a drummer.
That recording sound you’re referring to is what’s called the muscle Shoals sound. That’s where Southern rock ‘n’ roll was invented when Dwayne Allman and Wilson Pickett recorded a cover of the Beatles hey Jude. That is what is widely accepted as the very southern rock ‘n’ roll song.
As a Southern Rock fan, you need to hear the band called .38 Special. Hold On Loosely
Gimme three steps, Saturday night special, Swamp song, and so many other great songs from Lynyrd Skynyrd
Dude, it was the 60s and 70s, Tuesday was her name. I dated a girl named Jupiter. I called her jupe for short. We saw the Skynard live at least 10 times in the 70s.
Good choice. It's my favorite Skynyrd song too.
We saw the original Skynard back in 1977 ❤excellent 👌
When you said it your favorite and said this is the one it made me think of their song ' I ain't the one' 😆
This is my fav of theirs and you’re the first reactor I’ve seen do it! Yeah!1❤
This was also in Dazed and Confused. Great song!
Love this song!! ❤
This song was also featured in Dazed And Confused.
I love lots of different types of music, but nothing will ever touch this music ❤❤❤
