    Thank you for the reaction. Three and a half months later, Ronnie Van Zant, the lead singer, Steve Gaines, guitarist in the red pants, Cassie Gaines, backup singer in the middle and sister of Steve, and three other people were killed in the band's plane crash. The others were very seriously injured, but recovered. Sad Day.

    At around the 4:00 minute mark, you see Steve Gaines and directly behind him, his sister Cassie, whom begged the other guys to give her little brother a shot, after cofounder, and co songwriter for Sweet Home Alabama, Ed King, left the group. The other members were apprehensive at first, till they heard Steve Gaines play. One great guitarist whose life was cut way too short. Some of his best work can be heard on, “I Know a Little” and “You Got That Right.” He also provides vocals alongside Ronnie Van Zandt. These songs are absolute masterpieces!

      Alabama was on the Album "Harvest" and Southern Man was on the Album "After the Goldrush".

    Tip : if you're listening to a rock/metal song for the first time, please PLEASE listen to the official version first. Famous songs have countless lyric videos floating around on youtube, use one of them - that way you can read the lyrics and understand better what the song is talking about.
    Once you are familiar with the song, only then should you move to the live versions. Makes for a much better and much more enjoyable experience.

    Nice reaction to a great song. A lot of people, particularly younger folks just hearing this song don’t understand what the song is about. The song wasn’t intended as a Southern Anthem or a tribute to the State of Alabama.
    To understand this song you first need to listen to Neil Young’s song “Southern Man” which is highly critical of systemic racism in the South.
    Skynyrd didn’t like “Southern Man” as they felt it was hypocritical and painted an unfair stereotype of all Southerners being wild eyed racist. So Skynyrd wrote this song as a rebuttal to Neil Young’s song Southern man.
    In the song’s lyrics they wrote topical references from the 70’s such as to George Wallace the notorious racist Governor of Alabama and to the Watergate crisis that brought down President Nixon’s administration to make a point about Neil Young’s hypocrisy.
    So this song was far more complicated than just a tribute to the South or the State of Alabama.

    Let me tell you a great story. In the middle 70's." Skynyrd" toured with and opened for the "The Rolling Stones". The "Stones were known for their Stage set up and did not want the opening act, "Skynyrd" , to go out on that tongue, but they did , YES, they did. It is one of the best live performances in the history of music. So I would say to you, for your enjoyment, Check out "Freebird". live. Knebworth England , it was 75 ' or 76'. you can find it on TH-cam . Trust me when I tell you, will not be sorry. Jeff was right about this one. ,That is a prediction. Great reaction, great content. Love the energy . Be Well.

    I just found you two, and I love your reactions so far but, I really wish you had done the live version of Freebird (same concert) when you did THAT reaction, but for THIS song, I wish you did the STUDIO version, which in this case, is much better ... and you can understand the words.
    I would also suggest, and it's just a suggestion, that you listen to the studio versions of ALL songs from NEW artists, for a few of reasons. First, you don't know the group, what to expect from them, or even what they song/tune is SUPPOSED to sound like, and the studio versions are USUALLY the best representation of how the artists wanted their songs to sound, and second, the live versions of many groups just aren't as good. Of course, there ARE exceptions like Freebird, which is better live, mostly due to the crowd. Finally, if you listen to a live version and it IS crappy, then you may get turned off to that group altogether, and decide to avoid listening to more of their stuff, and would never hear how great they COULD be.

    This song would probably be a little hard for you to wrap your heads around completely because it references a few things that were very American and focused on that time period specifically, like: “Watergate does not bother me..” talking about president Nixon and the troubles he had just gone through. And, “I hope Neil Young will remember, the southern man don’t need him around anyhow..” There was a bit of a feud going on between Skynard and Neil Young over his song Southern Man that he had put out. The big flag behind the band is an extremely controversial symbol these days too and would be very difficult to fly that these days, with the hyper sensitivity towards race we see everywhere. It’s a shame really. It was a much simpler time then.

    Why does anyone start with a live version with terrible audio? Makes zero sense. Anybody insisting you listen to the live versions of anything first, just remember- the first time THEY heard it was the STUDIO version. You have to develop an ear for a song after hearing the recorded version MANY times before you can begin to enjoy live versions. Especially ones recorded from primitive audio equipment.

  • @kingbeauregard

    There is unfortunate cultural context to this song: it is a response to musician Neil Young, who was critical of the racism prevalent in places like Alabama. So this song is indirectly defending racism, or at least it's arguing that you shouldn't criticize racism. It's a shame, because I like Lynyrd Skynyrd a lot, but this song is no good.
    The correct response to Neil Young would have been to simply agree with him.
