- For all you Drummers and Bass Players, this is the isolated Bass and Drum tracks from the album version of Free Bird. Ed King and Bob Burns school us on the proper way to play it.....
As a matter of fact, the last two songs we recorded, “Free Bird” & “Simple Man” contain my bass parts that are very far removed from all of the other bass parts on that album. Mainly because I had caught the vision from Leon of how the bass should be played for this band."

One of those basslines that doesn't pop out consciously, but is so integral to the greatness of the song.
When your song is so good that people can rock out to half the song and still love it
The story of how Ed sought out the band, and then how he was offered to join is fabulous. Lesson is to always look to build your team UP, even if they aren't exactly like you. Skynyrd would never have been as big without him.
What a bassist Ed King was as well as an incredible guitarist! And Bob Burns doesn't get enough credit in my opinion. He was every bit as good if not better than Artimus Pyle in the sense that he never missed a single beat. He was so tight and right on tempo at all times, wasn't quite as flamboyant in his style as Artimus but always played exactly what he needed to to make it work. I heard someone say that Bob was like the Ringo Starr of Southern Rock, and I'd say that's true.
Ed King playing bass on this and most of the first album as Leon had left the band for awhile
brilliant stuff. it's a shame the intricacies of the bass line got lost in the final mix..
I can't get enough of this rhythm track, the bass is perfect
It shouldn't come as any surprise that Ed King, the guy that co-wrote the opening lick on Sweet Home Alabama and played some of the best psychedelic guitar EVER with Strawberry Alarm Clock for years in the '60's, could handle this amazing bass work. Somebody else made the comment that it's a shame this bass track was so far down in the mix on the released version.
Thanks for posting! This is so Fucking buried in the mix you can't hear it worth a shit.what a great bass line!
Ed King didn't get enough credit as a great bass player however I do think he probably was a better guitar player and he probably thought he made more of an impact with the guitar when it came to songwriting
Would be nice to hear the live version isolated from One More From The Road.
ED KING !!!!
Sweet this is one of the best isolated bass lines yet. nice job
This is jaw-dropping.
Fantastic bass... It's just amazing how great the bass was in Lynyrd Skynyrd !!

never heard a cover band do it like this: they just play the basic generic bass line
Really emotional track. Just well done, thanks for letting me hear this in a new format
This is possibly the best bass line of the entire 70ś . As a matter of fact, it is until proven wrong . Ed rules as a bassman and Bob Burns is right there every step of the way. It is perfect.
I can't believe Ronnie Van Zant told Ed King he "couldn't play bass for sh*t." That's some of the best I've heard.
