I agree, 1977 live version in Oakland. Look at how many people are there during a time when Social Media didn’t exist. Lynyrd Skynyrd were rock stars, unlike a lot of the cookie cutter stuff you see today. The guitar solo represents the free bird taking flight. Allen Collins (lead guitar) wrote that guitar solo when he was 16 years old not knowing a couple years later Ronnie VanZant would write the lyrics that made one of the greatest rock songs of all time FREE BIRD.
The Oakland concert was the last concert I went to before leaving for Navy boot camp. It was a great day what I remember of it, was kind of toasted as was the whole audience and the band. The 70's were a great time to be a teenager and early 20's and the Bay Area back then was a great place to be.
It’s most definitely a beautiful thing, although I’ll defend the other end of the spectrum by saying some of the best music ever made has been behind the computer
The ‘77 Oakland performance was about 3 months before the fatal plane crash. It’s a must watch… watching them solo live is 🔥. I think you would enjoy their song “Simple Man”. New subscriber!
Thank you kindly for reacting to Lynyrd Skynyrd. The live performance at the Oakland Coliseum on July 2nd 1977 was one for the books. I highly recommend it. 'Skynyrd has an extraordinary library of music. Just a few suggestions. "Simple Man" "Gimme Three Steps" "Sweet Home Alabama" and I could keep on going. Peace Out.
If you like this sound, it's Southern Rock. The Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Outlaws, etc are all Southern Rock (which is rock with a heavy emphasis on the Blues, it has that Muscle Shoals feel). Other Blues can be found in what may be the greatest rock band to ever exist and that is Led Zeppelin. "Since I've Been Loving You" and When the Levy Breaks" are definitely Blues.
@@johnathanstruble1064 it's not about the audio quality . . . . . it's about the WHOLE experience of a live performance, warts and all. That's what makes it superior. Studio versions are acoustically sterile in their "perfection". ALSO . . . MOST of those chicks are great grandmothers now.
Settin you up with suggesting Stevie Ray Vaughn = Texas Flood live at El Macambo...good luck pausing that song because SRV doesn't stop! The whole thing is a solo basically
Great to see you appreciating all types of music !!! It’s good to be open and try other genres. I love all kinds of music. Grew up with this , 80’s music like U2 , rap like whodini , then on to Michael Jackson with the pop music and into funk with Morris day and the time. I love being versatile and it’s super cool to see a young cat like yourself broadening your music knowledge ! Keep doing your thing man !
Have you listened to any Steely Dan yet? They're a great band that blends elements of rock, jazz, Latin music, R&B, blues with sophisticated studio production and cryptic and ironic lyrics. They're also known for their technical proficiency. *Reelin in the Years* is one of their better known songs and has some great guitar work. To be fair, it's hard to go wrong with any of their songs.
Bro, I didn’t see this one coming up!!! Let’s go, song hasn’t even started!!! Bruh, I wish I could have a beer or something with you sometime, I think you’re cool asf man, you seem so chill
For another breakup song, please react to "Farewell Song" from the album, "Live at Winterland '68" by Big Brother and the Holding Company featuring Janis Joplin.
I was 20 years old when they got in a plane crash in 1977 the lead singer died will watch the documentary you'll find out all about Lynyrd Skynyrd how sad😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤

Great trivia! What an amazing talent...

Always love seeing the “what the hell just happened “ look when the solo kicks in.
Yup! Real music, real musicians, playing real imstruments. ✌️
It’s most definitely a beautiful thing, although I’ll defend the other end of the spectrum by saying some of the best music ever made has been behind the computer
Greatest guitar solo EVAH!
Solos

Now you really need to watch the live version from Oakland 77’. It’s even better live 😅!

The greatest rock and roll song of all time

"Since I've Been Loving You" and When the Levy Breaks" are definitely Blues.
Stairway to Heaven can't hold a candle to this.....The live version is a monster also!!!
Solo wise nothing does but lets not get it twisted, Led Zeppelin is the greatest band of all time
@@digg_7 the Beatles!!!
I'll be back when you do the correct version . . . . . Oakland live, 1977. . .
kinda nice he can focus on music first time then see live visuals :D
I’ve personally always enjoyed recorded versions over live, except Eruption
All due respect, the audio and quality of Oakland was inferior to the studio. But the chicks were hot! ✌️♥️
