That whole Muscle Sholes documentary is must watch for music fans
what's it called i'd like to watch it
@@torpedotorben Muscle Shoals
Think about this. During the 60's and 70's how many bands which grew up together (actually lived near or went to school with each other) turned out amazing? Allman Bros, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith, The Beatles, Ted Nugent/Amboy Dukes, Van Halen, Metallica, Monstrose, Journey, The Beach Boys........on and on. And what also made these bands great was they all had their unique sound because of where they were from and how they came together. SOOOOO much talent and I havent even named many more
You guys will be very glad to have watched the documentary about muscle Shoals. You might be shocked at just how important that those studios were to both rock and roll and R&B.
Definitely do the Muscle Shoals documentary! Aretha Franklin insisted on those “Greasy” (her word) be her band (The Swampers) when cutting a few albums. That documentary will Blow your mind, as will the west coast version, “The Wrecking Crew”.,another fantastic documentary that will absolutely blow your mind and give you knowledge that you didn’t even know you needed!
I would also add "Standing in the Shadows of Motown" documentary about "The Funk Brothers" as well! So many hits that they were involved with, to give the world the Motown sound!!!
This whole documentary is pure dope 🙌 I highly recommend watching it if you have not already watched it. Excellent reaction, fellas 😊❤🙏
You got to watch the documentary Muscle Shoals
Ronnie found out Billy Powell was a great pianist, so he said I fired him as a roadie and rehired him as our piano player... great story.
Gary told the story in the documentary, If I Leave Here Tomorrow, that Billy told them he could play piano but they ignored him until he sat down and played what he thought would work in Free Bird.
When they opened for The Who, they blew them off the stage, and history was made.
You definitely need your watch Muscle Shoals, what a great documentary!!
Y’all would enjoy the movie IF I LEAVE HERE TOMORROW. It used to be on Netflix. That will take you from the beginning to the end. Excellent documentary about Skynyrd. The best I’ve ever seen, in fact.
it was all women at the Oakland concert in the documentary because the headliner was Peter Frampton and they were there to see him.
Concerts with crowds like that 😉make me re evaluate my life choices
Already an underrated comment!
I know Billy Powell, of course from Skynard, but when he received Christ he was in a band called Vision. We don't know who may be listening, and Billy I don't think he had a clue what would happen but Lynard Skynard is a great Southern Rock band and Billy made them better! I think you've reacted to Molly Hatchet, not sure, they're my favorite, plus 38 Special as well!
Tom Dowd was the man behind the curtain for countless musical wizards. He has worked with Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Cream, Rod Stewart, the Allman Brothers Band and more. His inventive genius and technical skill combined with his musical talent made him one of the best producers in the business.
👍
Tom put Clapton and Skydog together during the Layla sessions.

see "Tom Dowd And The Language Of Music"
A similar thing happened with Queen...their song Bohemian Rhapsody was turned down because of it's length. They took their music elsewhere and the rest is history...check it out.
This is just a small segment of an incredible documentary that you HAVE TO WATCH ! It will absolutely blow your minds when you discover all of the music history that started there at MUSCLE SHOALS
The documentary is effing so good. You'll see Arethra and Wilson Pickett and many good singers in this doc. Cheers
Billy Powell was Skynyrds secret weapon. His piano playing is just as big a part of their sound as the 3 lead guitar attack. I’ve seen them many times and Billy Powell was the real deal! He was the shit! No doubt about it!
Legends, Skynyrd will never die. My 20 year old son got in the car with me to travel to a Florida State Football game, which was about a 4 hour drive. He hooks up his phone to the blue tooth in my car as we are headed out. The first song that came on was Free Bird. I looked over at him and said, "You know this song, and listen to 70s classic rock, and he was like sure dad these guys are Legends." I didn't know he listened to anything besides rap or hip hop, lol. Made me tear up driving down the road.
Lynyrd Skynyrd will never be forgotten.
If I Leave Here Tomorrow is a great Skynyrd documentary to watch.
Congrats!!!!,my son is 28 and my daughter is 21 and they know all the classic Rock, Metal from the 70's and 80's,l made sure of that
You both are great to watch and listen to.
You guys should watch FREE BIRD:THE MOVIE
Coincidentally, my ide and I just watched the Muscle Shoals documentary again last weekend! One of the best movies you’ll ever see if you are a music fan. It really touches your soul. Among many other famous musicians, the Stones recorded Brown Sugar, Wild Horses and You Got to Move at Muscle Shoals. Keith Richards said he could hear in his head what he imagined recording there would be like, and then when they finally got to record it was even better than he’d imagined, “and for a musician, that is pure rock and roll heaven.”
Correction: My wife and I…..
Wow! I never knew any of those facts! Billy Powell a roadie! I’m glad that man got back with them. Great story. 😮
You can hear some amazing musicians at rehearsal and sound check 🙂
Re: Billy Powell being a roadie then a band member. Virtually the same thing happened when Lynard Skynard guitarist Ed King quit the band. Backup singer Cassie Gaines recommended her brother (and fellow Okie) Steve Gaines. His amazing work is heard on their final album. Unfortunately, both Steve and his sister Cassie died in the plane crash.
4 MUST SEE movies for you two...
Muscle Shoals
The Wrecking Crew
Sound City
Freebird the Movie
They're right up your alley
Also....In the Shadow of Motown & Cadillac Records. Also ......Atlantic Records. Great music history.
The actual Muscle Shoals documentary is very good. I'd definitely watch it if you guys reacted to it.
You have to watch the whole documentary. Awesome!
Holly chit. I never knew this stuff. Amazing!
First and Last is my favorite album...
Ty fellas your killin it as always!
This was both really great and also, now I want to cry 😭 That ending. I knew about the crash, of course, but it just cut off so many future iconic songs. And the album being called 'First and Last'? Omg.
Muscle Shoals doc is fabulous.
But the parts about Rick Hall's life are heart-wrenching.
You know what happened with the band, Kansas? They got a call from a Don Kirshner (Midnight Special) rep saying he was interested in coming to watch them play after hearing a demo. The band got a very enthusiastic audience by offering FREE BEER on posters advertised far and wide. It worked!😆They ended up touring with Queen! You should find that portion of their documentary, Miracles Out of Nowhere (2015), to react to. Of course, I spoiled it but it's always better to see and hear it from the horse's mouth.
The Who were the perfect band for LS to tour with!
Y’all should really watch that Muscle Shoals documentary. Legends of all kinds of music wanted to record there ✌️
I've never saw this short documentary. What a great find.
It's an excerpt from the Muscle Shoals documentary, I believe.
In a handful of songs you’ll hear Ronnie say
“Billy Powell on Piano “ before he starts his solo
Yeah Billy was the real deal and of course the whole band was just simply fantastic
There’s an interview with guitarist Pete Townsend of the Who wile L.S. was finishing up there set , Pete pauses the interview for a second and turns to the interviewer and says “ They’re really quiet good , aren’t they ? “
If ya'll really want to hear some amazing music do a reaction to Skynyrd's First The Complete Muscle Shoals Album.
You guys are great. Thanks!
What a cool thing to react to! I didn't know half this stuff either, man! My favorite part of this clip was at about 5:07--the transition from "They were a HIT BAND" to that beautiful summer crowd going nuts for "Freebird"! I laughed and instantly got a little teary-eyed as well.
You should watch the Muscle Shoals documentary for Aretha, Wilson Pickett, and Etta James.
I live in the Shoals! It’s still an amazing place for music! Pass by Muscle Shoals Sound and Fame recording studios all the time and they are busy making music!
@@kylecrotts2715 In the documentary, it looked beautiful. You are very lucky. It seems like a special place. Does the river sing?
@@324cmac Wife and I were sitting by the river two days ago, it sure felt like it was!! So calming.
@@kylecrotts2715 Sounds wonderful. I love the stories about the river.
If you guys want a real treat watch the live version of this one from Knebworth 1976!! 🔥🎤🎸🎶🎼
Thanks for this.
Legendary.
IM LUCKY I SAW THEM TWICE!! 😢😍🐐🎸🔥
My brother played in several bands as a kick-ass drummer for decades. He had a brush with Glory when he was touring with some band back in the 90's. His band was opening for Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad fame I think. But someone somehow had a tight connection to either Gary Rossington or Allen Collins--founding members (guitarists) of Skynyrd. He crashed a night or two at one of their houses, and there, mounted on the wall --he saw the guitar that "Freebird" was composed on!
Thanks fella's...
"The First and the Last"
If you like music engineers i.e. Muscle shoals you have to watch a doc. Tom Dowd. He was the engineer of Ray Charles all the way to Cream and the Allman bros. band. His life was like the real Forrest gump. He also worked on the Atomic bomb.
What's up guys, there is still a bunch of lynard Skynard songs that you have not reacted to yet. I can't wait to see the reactions. Great reactions guys!!
The main one missing is Gimme Three Steps!
Would love for y’all to come to Jax! I am friends with Johnny Van Zant and Gene Odom and can make arrangements for a tour that you will never forget ! Thanks for keeping the music alive !
yous should check out vh1s lynyrd skynyrd behind the music.a great documentary of the band and the history of southern rock is a great one too.
I saw these guys in '73 or '74 @ the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. They had folding chairs set up but they were all pushed around and everyone was standing as close as they could get to the stage. I was a wild night let me tell you! But I was in high school so it would have been pretty wild for me. The place was a dump at the time,
the Stoned Roadie (Craig Reed, a survivor of the plane crash) Has a UA-cam channel
Allen Collins doesn’t get enough credit for the guitar player he was and Ronnie doesn’t get enough credit for the incredible song writer that he was If Ronnie had not died in the plane accident This band would have went down in history as the best rock band of all time To me they still hold this title I have never even heard of a band that ever song they ever recorded was a good song You can make a list of all of their songs from all of their albums and close your eyes and put your finger on one song and you will either like or be able to relate to it in some way I don’t know of another band anyone can make that statement Even the greatest Led Zeppelin can’t say that
Such a shame it ended the way it did for Ronnie Steve Cassie and road manager Dean!
Im in a local band, but never fails some douche will yell freebird
....don't you be that douche
