Addiction is bad, and we have a country full of addicts. You're right about the pills too. This band was just incredible live. Great reaction and commentary. Thanks.
Luv ya dog, I'll never forget picking my daughter up 100 miles away, locked up in prison 4 her terrible disease, driving home she said dad I've been listening to that guy u like Lynyrd Skynard, He's kicks Butt
Thank you for sharing this. They were a huge part of my teenage years. Since the passing of the last founding member Gary rossington last month I've been doing a lot of listening to them lately. Added side note this song is about him
Hey Biz! Bill Graham ran Winterland and Fillmore West and East. All these black and white videos were done for most bands for years. Sadly a lot of it was lost in a warehouse fire.
This song is actually based on real world events one of the band members was dealing with. This was the rest of the bands way of helping to remind their friend that he wasn't as alone as he feared
Hey Biz... the LS plane crash in Oct 1977 killed 3 band members and their road manager: Ronnie van Zandt (lead singer and song writer) Steve Gaines(1 of 3 lead guitarists) Cassie Gaines (1 of 3 female backup singers and sister of Steve Gaines) Dean Kilpatrick (Road manager) My opinion is that the band died with Ronnie who wrote all the song lyrics.
True that. Today's LS is a nothing more than a tribute band. Ronnie was the driving heart & soul of LS. Not even his brother could hold a candle to him.
A southern favorite band in the day. I'm from NW Ga. and remember having gone to see them at the Fox Theater when I was 16 (1976). They were recording their album, One More For the Road. You can watch the concert live and when they play Free Bird he says "play it pretty for Atlanta". My parents had no clue that I was there. Lol.
Man if you want to see Skynyrd at their best playing live Check them out in the Fox theater in Atlanta Ga in 1976 They recorded a live album at Fox theater Its called One More From The Road They also performed a cover version of Cream’s song Crossroad’s Which is an old blues song by Robert Johnson But it is so fire Ronnie and the band was on point at this concert
Biz, I think its time you do the studio version of Free Bird. It's waiting for you. Thanks for loving the Skynyrd boys. The plane crash broke a lot of hearts and Americans never let go of them. RIP boys.
This song is DOPE about Dope .. FACT of Historical Dope - The US had a serious problem with Chinese drug smugglers that were shipping Heroin/Opium illegally into the US during the1840s ..
After the plane crash four members came together and did the rossington Collins band have you done any reactions to them if not you should give them a listen
Yeah I agree I still have it in my collection as well. I saw them at the Paramount Theater in Seattle. the best part of the show was when they did freebird, all instrumental, with Ronnie's hat hanging from the mic stand. Amazing. I was really thankful I get to see them in Philadelphia in 78 before the plane crash
I agree, I saw the Original Band live and the tribute bands on tape. There is NO comparison. The Original band members brought the songs out of their souls, especially Ronnie Van Sant. There is no replacement for him or the other originals.
@@LynyrdSkynyrdFanI was too young to see the original band, but I’m really happy I got to see Gary, Billy and Leon with Johnny, Hughie and Ricky. They did good and I suppose I got to see a fragment of the OG band at least. But agreed, they never had anything on the original band with Ronnie. Without Ronnie there wouldn’t have been any Skynyrd.
I lived this damm life from my 20s to my 40s why I am walking on this earth is beyond me.. All my family and friends said I would not see 30. I also felt that way. But truly just finally said F it . No more needle and the spoon for me. I remember at a family dinner someone asked mom where the spoons were. She said you need to ask Mark. Augusta Ga That whole show is a great one to watch. Just a little H more Coke and meth
This is LSB WITH 2 GUITAR LINE UP KING WAS (FIRED) QUIT. NO GAINES YET. THEY SOUND VERY GOOD! THAT CRAP KING WAS BIG DEAL ON THEIR SOUND BS. RONNIE ALLAN GARY THE BIG 3 PERIOD! THE REST EXCELENT. GAINES WAS READY TO BE THE JOIN THE BIG 3. HIS VOICE SIMMILAR TO RONNIES.
Profound sadness that we lost these legends
There has never been ,nor will there ever be a singer as badass as Ronnie Van Zant . He made this incredible band the best rock band of all time .
Addiction is bad, and we have a country full of addicts. You're right about the pills too.
This band was just incredible live. Great reaction and commentary. Thanks.
Allen Collins is nothing but a beast on guitar R.I.P my long haired brother
Underrated as fuck. Should be considered more when it comes to top guitar players of all time
I know you loved this one. Notice only 2 guitarists. Ed King had left in 75 and Steve Gaines had not yet joined the band but would soon.
They were so damn talented...
A hot song with a message.

You can't go wrong with SKYNYRD

Thank God we have people who make it their life mission to give us music!
Allan Collins solo on the peddle is one of best ever. His 2nd is just as good no peddle
I love when others " talk" to others with such truth. He also spoke about the " pleasure" of it
Give Me Back My Bullets a shot. Lol no pun intended.

I feel the exact same way 😢 I only listen to pre crash Skynyrd. No disrespect intended but for me the sound died on 10/20/77 😢
True that. Today's LS is a nothing more than a tribute band. Ronnie was the driving heart & soul of LS. Not even his brother could hold a candle to him.
@@vickieray Me too.
This song is bad ass Biz. Thanks again for the live version!!!
🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

One of their greatest songs ever done .
Another fantastic song , love this band forever.
Yep!!love this
Amazing fkn live band,ive watched abt every live video they have,wish tnere were more with the OG skynyrd
Can't smoke it or drink it, hell with it...good advice.
Man if you want to see Skynyrd at their best playing live Check them out in the Fox theater in Atlanta Ga in 1976 They recorded a live album at Fox theater Its called One More From The Road They also performed a cover version of Cream’s song Crossroad’s Which is an old blues song by Robert Johnson But it is so fire Ronnie and the band was on point at this concert
Incredible performance of a great song. Fun reaction is always man.
Thank you
Great anti drug song.
they don't make'm like Ronnie no more! that dude was everything.
The best!
Lynyrd Skynyrd "I Need You"
I haven’t done that yet?
@@watchbizmatikNope, it's still sitting on the shelf.
A couple of other anti drug songs are The Pusher and Snowblind Friend by Steppenwolf 🔥🔥🔥👵🏼💜☮️
Biz, I think its time you do the studio version of Free Bird. It's waiting for you. Thanks for loving the Skynyrd boys. The plane crash broke a lot of hearts and Americans never let go of them. RIP boys.
Lol you might be right
I have read that both Prince and Tom Petty both had fentanyl in their system when they died
This song is DOPE about Dope .. FACT of Historical Dope - The US had a serious problem with Chinese drug smugglers that were shipping Heroin/Opium illegally into the US during the1840s ..
Check out Call Me The Breeze live at Old Grey Whistle Test in 1975. You’ll love it.
They tried to warn people with this one and “ That Smell.”
This band practiced so much that when it was time to record, they got it all in minimum takes.
They were the tightest
Straight up my brothers 😢
Biz, have you done Skynyrd's 'Poison Whiskey? This was great performance, never seen it before.
No I have not
It's about Heroin use..with a member of the band
After the plane crash four members came together and did the rossington Collins band have you done any reactions to them if not you should give them a listen
I have that album, it's not bad. I really wanted to like - didn't care for the girl singer though.
The song "Don't Misunderstand Me" was alright.
Yeah I agree I still have it in my collection as well. I saw them at the Paramount Theater in Seattle. the best part of the show was when they did freebird, all instrumental, with Ronnie's hat hanging from the mic stand. Amazing. I was really thankful I get to see them in Philadelphia in 78 before the plane crash
@@flstfb2013 I woulda like to see that. Ronnie's hat is iconic.🕊
I saw LS Aug '77 in Chicago, three months b4 crash. They were so good 🎸
LETS GOOOO
Hey brother you want a deep one by Lynyrd Skynyrd check out tumbleweed not everybody knows that song but it is sure deep
Cry For the Bad Man and Working For MCA are 2 more great ones by them
Next from Skynyrd? Just pick one.Any one it will be great!
Thank you for choosing live OG Skynyrd rather than a selection from the tribute band that tours today as Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I agree, I saw the Original Band live and the tribute bands on tape. There is NO comparison. The Original band members brought the songs out of their souls, especially Ronnie Van Sant. There is no replacement for him or the other originals.
I refuse to listen to or watch the tribute band. They made a blood oath not to do it and they did anyway. Greed

Be careful now biz !!
Great tune. May i recommend "That Smell" by LS. Its my favorite

That’s great you made it through that
Ive seen alot of people who thought they were cool, then again lord i seen alotta fools. I damn sho have. Somehow im still here
In my area it's the pills also its more meth use here. Taking them out left and right.
Instrumental geniuses
Now ya gotta do Wicked World by Black Sabbath.
The needle and the spoon haven't gone anywhere. Junkies today break those pills down to shoot them up.
The 75 Winterland version is a lot better as Ed was there and they had their 3 guitar army. Pace is much faster.
Only happens in the SOUTH !!!!
This is LSB WITH 2 GUITAR LINE UP KING WAS (FIRED) QUIT. NO GAINES YET. THEY SOUND VERY GOOD! THAT CRAP KING WAS BIG DEAL ON THEIR SOUND BS. RONNIE ALLAN GARY THE BIG 3 PERIOD! THE REST EXCELENT. GAINES WAS READY TO BE THE JOIN THE BIG 3. HIS VOICE SIMMILAR TO RONNIES.
