    Skynyrd was one band that sounded just as good or better live than they did on the studio albums. I saw them right after my 17th birthday in April of 1977.

  • @stevedahlberg8680
    @stevedahlberg8680 Рік тому +22

    I'm really surprised to see someone reacting to T For Texas but it's really great. Jimmie Rodgers was the original yodeling cowboy but he had a huge impact on lots of music to follow and he was quite the character and he's from the 1920s so think about this, in the 1970s, Lynyrd Skynyrd was paying homage to Jimmie Rodgers and keeping his music alive. That was fifty years later. Half-a-century. And now here we are reacting and looking at Lynyrd Skynyrd in the 70s and keeping that music alive, 50 years later, half a century. What do you think about that?
    And one thing I like a lot about the way Lynyrd Skynyrd does this, as I get older and have played in bands for years, is Leon Wilkeson on the bass. They only show him a little bit he's on the right with a funny hat on his head but that guy is a savage beast on the bass guitar. He's playing so damn hard and it's just relentless and it's so funky and driving. And this is in the middle of typically a long show. I can't even imagine how much endurance Leon has. If you listen to the cut from their double live album one more from the road of this song, the fidelity is better and you can really hear the bass line well.
    Whoever edited this had zero idea about who is playing what, because it hardly ever showed the person playing that was actually playing something significant. And you didn't ever see Billy Powell at all except for a couple very distant shots of a black grand piano on the stage. At least I could tell it was his black grand piano and not the white one that he sometimes used. Lord.
    And of course Artimus Pyle is so much fun. And you're right, they do have their own styles and based on just a horrible editing job and them not ever showing what was happening at the real time except occasionally by accident, it seemed like maybe Steven Gaines was playing slide guitar initially and Gary Rossington was playing the riff and then Allen Collins was basically playing rhythm. But definitely at some point later you can tell Steve's guitar style and they did have a very brief cut of him just totally rocking out picking.

    Was fortunate enough to see them live twice in 1976. They headlined one and opened for the Doobie Brothers on the other (blew the Doobies off the stage). This is Knebworth in England. Think they were opening for the Stones this time around.

Almost feel bad for the Stones as you simply CANNOT follow such an epic performance by Synyrd! And the Stones knew it... they couldn't follow that! Stones just got drunk and didn't come on stage for 2 hours after Freebird. What an epic moment in rock history! LS is the greatest rock band of all time and may the all RIP!

    WTF could be the excuse for not panning to one of the best 'rock' pianists of all time during fire breathing solos that sometimes lasted more than a minute during an entire show? This time, they messed up and we at least SAW a piano from a distance before they cut away. I just don't get it.

Man, so many classic songs from this amazing band, and not sure all that you’ve reacted to already, but here are a few suggestions: Needle and a Spoon, Curtis Loewe, Sweet Home Alabama (guessing you already reacted to this all time classic?), Tuesday’s Gone, Whiskey Rock and Roller, and the list goes on!

    Jimmie Rodgers (born James Charles Rodgers, September 8, 1897 - May 26, 1933) was an American singer-songwriter and musician who rose to popularity in the late 1920s. Widely regarded as "the Father of Country Music", he is best known for his distinctive rhythmic yodeling. Rodgers was known as "The Singing Brakeman" and "America's Blue Yodeler". He has been cited as an inspiration by many artists, and he was inducted into multiple hall of fames.
    Originally from Meridian, Mississippi, Rodgers was the son of a railroad worker. During his early childhood, the family moved according to the needs of his father's employment, or Rodgers' own poor health. As a teenager, he was musically influenced by the diverse vaudeville shows that he often attended.

The backup singer, Leslie Jo Hawkins is still alive, but wasn’t visible in this video. She too survived the plane crash.
    This is a song that the only did live. I don’t think that there is a studio version. They recorded a live album in Atlanta to save The Fox Theater, ONE MORE FROM THE ROAD, and this song does appear on the live album.

When LS was playing freebird Ronnie took Gary and Allen out to the tip of the tongue. They played in a middle spot and it took four hours for the next band to come on stage.

    Man on the slide guitar is Lynyrd Skynyrd Steve Gaines phenomenal guitarists, the whole street survivors album is a must to listen to the whole thing is just so good, it's like ear candy with the Superior three guitar attack Steve Gaines was just on another level that made Allen and Gary bring the best A game each had. I was lucky at thirteen to have seen them live, what a concert.

    Try T For Texas (Winterland 1976) …it’s in black & white …but the audio quality is better and the camera shows each guitar player doing their respective solos …worth checking out✨

    Ronnie is definitely not your typical frontman. No antics, no gimmicks, he just prowls the stage like a big cat and belts out the tunes.

    That was filmed at the Knebworth Festival in 1976. The "tongue" on the stage was restricted to only the Rolling Stones, but Mr. Van Zant being who he was pressed his luck went out on the tongue, getting into a scuff with Mick Jagger about that. It is well known that the "Jacksonville 5+" were a lot better at this than the Rolling Stones who were notoriously sloppy by that time.
    Yes, Jimmie Rodgers wrote it originally in the 1920s and it was a slow, bluesy type song. The "Jacksonville 5+" made it a driving song and changed some of the lyrics. Mr. Van Zant is smiling because he knows he picked the right replacement for Mr. King with Mr. Gaines (the bearded guy in the light blue jeans). He is the brother of backup singer Cassie Gaines. When Mr. Gaines auditioned for the band, soundman Kevin Elson was told, "If he sucks, just cut him off". Mr. Elson responded, "Not only does he not suck, this guy can play. He's good.". Just like that, he was a member of the band.
    No matter the version, 'ole Thelma was a problem and was likely to get herself a "rounder" (probably a gun shot). I often say, "Gimme a "T" for "Terrific". This song goes over well live and most if not all performances of it by the "Jacksonville 5+" are live performances. Billy Powell is the keyboard player and Artimus Pyle is the drummer.
    The tee shirt Mr. Van Zant is wearing is from Muscle Shoals Studios in Muscle Shoals, AL. They are the "swampers" referenced in Sweet Home Alabama.

    Perfect performance to check out, and awesome reaction.
    Been listening to Skynyrd from the beginning and I figured I'd be tired of listening to them by now, but I'm not. Their music is just too damn good.
    I've always loved how they share the stage and feed off of each other's playing.
    I don't think there's a studio version of this. They perform it on their live album, One More From the Road. This may be the performance it was taken from, but I think this one was a little different than the one on the album.
    This is my first time seeing this video. It was badass!!👍👍

      One More From The Road was in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre. I love watching the crowd In this clip. Probably never heard this song before so they go through as slow boil and just percolate all the way through.

    I knew this song before Skynyrd ever sang it, it my mother was a big fan of Jimmie Rodgers and played his music all the time.. Jimmie's version is pretty dark though.. I loved hearing it done by skynyrd as a teen, several have covered it over the years.
