#LynyrdSkynyrd #SaturdayNightSpecial #LiveAtKnebworth76
i was there as a 21 y/o ,now heading towards my 70th birthday. this was the 2nd time i had seen the stones , but the first time i had seen or even heard of LS - they were just brilliant on that day.
I was 21 76 great great summer brilliant concert
The real Skynyrd.
I was there! They were the best band at Knebworth that year! Head and shoulders above the rest. The Stones, were great, but these guys left me with an everlasting impression.
Amazing show they put on lucky you!
So Lucky!
I wish I had been able to see them back then. Unfortunately, I was born ten years too late
@Paul Gretny I tried.... the scanning was pretty quick
@JOHN lll Yep, I have used the same wording many a time
One of the greatest rock and Roll bands ever
Arguably the greatest American rock and roll band of all time Rest in peace
This is HOW You BLOW The Stones OFF THE STAGE!!!!!!!!!!!
Definitely the best Band on Earth.
It is sad that almost everyone in the classic lineup of Lynyrd Skynyrd has died. Especially Gary Rossington, he was a great guitarist.
We all have to die. No one's immortal but their music lives on. Unfortunately 3 of them died way too soon. But we have UA-cam to go to when we miss them.
@@lisashelley3051 More than just the 3 from the plane crash went too soon. Allen, Bob, Billy and Leon also died young and tragically.
Their guitarists were all great. I truly believe Steve Gaines was destined to be the best. Songwriter, vocalist, lead guitarist, great slide player…. Would have been a stone cold legend.
Yes!!!
All but Artimus…
A lot of talent on that stage
how tight were these southern boys, today's bands can only dream about being this good.
The KINGS of Southern Rock! Skynard!
Skynard??????????
@@kenbrown3076 that is what I’ve said, yes.
Can you at least spell the name right? SKYNYRD
@@kenbrown3076 no, I did it on purpose to piss people off. So far I’m winning.
@Grizzly406 Didn't piss me off. It just shows how ignorant some people are. Thanks for proving it!
Greatest pure rock n roll band to ever take the stage.
How can you dislike this ?? Come on !
Rip all the boys
It's so fucking tragic how many Skynyrd members are gone
Keep pushing Gary !
Gary is only original one left..he turned 70..Rickey Medlocke was with them briefly in 1971-1972
@@chucky2569 yes i know about Gary , i dont know if you watch the documentary about the Skynyrd on Netflix , really good and Gary talk about the good old days
@@ianlawlski1102 Gary's solos are perfect for the feel of this song. Those big bluesy bends on that LP neck pickup are killer sounding with this track.
It’s so mind blowing that in less than 5 years and 5 albums that they produced so many classic rock and roll songs. One can only wonder “what if” if there wasn’t so much tragedy surrounding this band. Truly one of the greatest bands of all time!
Well, they're no CCR, but they did ok.
@@MouthBreatherGamingyou’re brain dead.
#1 band of all time!
They’re certainly my favorite!!!!
Rest easy Gary Rossington!
I really loved the real skynyrd band.. Allen is out of control... love it
Gary was on lead guitar
There is no amount of money you can put on these guys, the absolute greatest in all the universe, then, now, and forever and ever!!!
Everything about this video is absolutely priceless. It captures a whole generation and a chunk of history perfectly in 5 minutes and 17 seconds.
Each one of them are masters of their craft and never again shall we hear such sweet sounds.
So glad yall love my all time favorite band!!! This song was from their earlier days. If you notice there in the middle when the music gets happier that riff became the riff for gimme three steps. All their songs are hits to me. You'll never go wrong with any SKYNYRD song
One of the all time greatest Rock bands
And I just read a Rolling Stone magazine 'top 100 guitar players of all time' .... and not a single Skynyrd boy made it! WTF!! That removes all credibility from that magazine!!
one of the best songs ever
Masterful. True southern rock.
I saw them in Memphis, Tennessee at the Liberty Bowl Stadium and brother I couldn't tell the difference between the album and the live show. They were that superb with their music. Great band.
Allen was so badass! One of the best in my opinions. Didn't have enough time to really shine! But left some great music🤘
. . . his own worst enemy, sadly.
May G-d rest Allen's soul.
without a don’t one best ever and i’ve seen ton of them.steve is on that list too of course bias my fav band of all time. these guys that is. dig ricky and all but doesn’t compare
one of the best live rock performances ever
The best version of this song! Love the faster tempo…..it rocks more.
Allen's rhythm makes this song and one of the best intro's in rock history.
Gary is the Man !! He owned this !
Ed King wrote it.
ICONS FOREVER.
THANK YOU ❤❤❤PHILADELPHIA USA 🇺🇸
NOSTROVIA 🎉🎉
I don't care what you play & listen to as long as it's LYNYRD SKYNYRD.........and nuthin' else!!!!!!!!!!
This is the epitomy of a band.
Egos everywhere GOING THRU ...you guys ALL know the stories, amazing how they could get everything in check to perform 🎉
This is one of my all time favorite rock songs.
Good choice ! They have plenty more. Hand gun are made for killin , that ain’t no good for nothing else.
For $20 you can buy yourself one toooo ! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 !
This song sounds like its headed to a fight. Great attitude riff and vocals. Oft' intimated, never replicated.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT
The best Band!!! Forever!
That's what a Les Paul should sound like.
Goosebumps...these boys on 🔥
Freaking amazing. RVZ is the best of all time and his lyrics are amazing
Epic!
Simple and straightforward. All honestly. Super.
Steve Gaines was the best thing that ever happened to Skynyrd!❤❤❤R.I.P.🕊️
To think of all the songs Steve would've contributed on future albums. Still can't get over the crash.
@@SL-vi4tk me either I was in Mississippi when that happened! And to think Aerosmith was going to take that plane!
Skynyrd had the four best guitar players and the best front man...they were all tight as shit and heaven sent!
Ed King.
ORIGINAL CLASSIC ROCK !!!!! FOREVER
Only #1 WAY 2 LISTEN 2 THIS , AS LOUD AS YOUR SPEAKERS CAN HANDLE, AMAZING TRACK!!!!!!
This song is an Ed King contribution to Lynyrd Skynyrd! Ed wrote some great ones! Sweet Home, Working for MCA, Whiskey Rock-n-Roller, etc.
With that sound, Ed had to have put a major force into it !! Ed was the cool California Hippie. :)
Ed diffently help take them to another level, they were like a rocket, entering into roll and roll hevan, may they all R.I.P. They set the bar that very few bands reach and in my opnion, no group in my lifetime has surpassed.
He played guitar for Strawberry Alarm clock back in the sixty’s
Lord i miss them !!!❤
Whiskey & handguns aint good for nothin!
IN THE BOTTOM OF THE DEEP BLUE SEA!
THANK YOU! 💘👏✊✌
Damn that tone!!
All musical geniuses and Ronnie...what a songwriter and story teller....wish I could have met all these guys. But as life has it, it just takes some people too damn early.
People who don’t know old fashioned rock and roll should watch this concert
F*&king amazing. Gary on that lead slide is unbelievable. Masterpiece of a concert performance.
Live Classic Southern Rock Perfection !!! Great stuff !!!
The clean-up of both the audio and video is remarkable.
Excellent job folks.
The greatest live performance ever. No debate!
Literally endless debate.
it was great meatin ronnies brother and medlock up in heartford CT
Listen to the bark of that heavy rhythm!! The mad-hatter's Bass holding the bottom down! 🤘
1:51 🖐
No debate ?? Says who ?
The best back then, and always will be, listen to them all the time, music never gets old! 🎧🍺🥃🎸🎤🤟☝️❤️
Man, these guys were good!
Great song. Rock on!
An ARMY of lethal guitars! Story goes Ronnie was a work ethic dude, these guys practiced in steamy weather and he pushed the band, Billie Powell will never be topped, just an excellent combination all around! Don't forget how free Americans were back then too...
DAMN!...WOW!...nuff said!
Oh man, that may be the nastiest les paul tone ever, awesome
🤘😝👍
Brutal... 👍👍👍
they sound like they are in a recording studio, great
Beautiful keys on this verison.
Thanks for the great tunes. Rock In the Heavens
The live version is always better than the studio version in my opinion.
LEGENDS!!!!
Crazy how close they sound like the album version. Those guys probably always sounded great. Didn’t matter if it was a festival or a small dance hall that held 50 people.
Still give me chill
Great band great song!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
When you have Jesus on drums and three legendary guitarists, the Stones really had no chance.
😂❤
Bob Burns was the original drummer he quit not sure why but he was a great drummer
Gary Rossington - such a guitar badass.
Legend
Hell yeah Johnny boy loves Skynyrd...
One of the great songs i can play it too which makes me even happier 🎉🤘
I had that tape in my radio tape deck .that all I would listen to in my tractor trailer. All across America. God bless the lynyrd skynyrd family's. All that went to and worked for skynyrd were family always.
Amen brother
Gods of Rock!!!🎸
Great to see.
Great music! Thanks for sharing
Jimmy@ Monterey, Blind Owl, & Carlos at Woodstock these guys@ Knebworth some things are just too epic to ever be repeated
When I go to Heaven and I’m floating on my fluffy cloud. That’s all I want to hear….LYNYRD SKYNYRD
AMEN!
What a joy to watch..
Mick Taylor was an unbelievable rock guitarist!! What a great time for Rock! He just walked away from the Keith and Mick J show!!
they are the best ever
Awesome!!! Охренено классно! 🤘Чувствуется дух того времени. Кому-то повезло быть там... 🙏
a great guitar riff
Wow Alan, Gary, Donnie, Steve and Artimus. Oh and Billy.
gaines had that funk
Thank you.
Fucking Awesome
The Rockers are rocking’. Thank you.
Steve Gains, Allen and Gary could shred on those guitars and Billy on keyboards. I won't even go into Ronnie's voice. He was the band. Came up with the name and made those boys practice, practice, practice. The record company's said they were so pulled together in perfection at their auditions.
It was actually Bob Burns who came up with the name.
Being a guitar player I enjoyed this more than the studio version
Brutal.... saludos desde cali colombia....🤪
Y desde Bogotá.
Welcome to 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽
Damn that plane
My 19 year old sister was watching her baby brother ( me) while my parents were on vacation in Spain from the United States for 3 weeks. I had just turned 12 years old. My sister's boyfriend wanted my sister to go and see some band outdoors in Georgia. So she had to take me along. I'll never forget that night. It was thousands of people standing up and raising hell. My sister's boyfriend decided to show me the finner things in life. Like pot and bootleg alcohol while my sister wasn't paying any attention. I also was shown how to pee in a gallon jug in public. This band became my favorite band that night. 1974.
That’s an epic story ! You were so fucking lucky you had no idea for the longest time though I bet. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 !
I was there too - they were by far the best band that day utter class - and also Captain Beefheart was ace - a great day and a shame the stones were poor
Billy Preston enhanced the Stones Show I felt.
A great song and way ahead of its time. Hand guns are made for killing...
What a band nobody could follow them live!!
WOW, there's songs U LUV , BUT AFTER AWHILE , they become ? not as thrilling/ unique as the 1st few times u heard it, THIS IS AN EXCEPTION !!!!!!! This is 1 of the BEST EVER !!!!,the guitars, drums , YIKES, OFF THE CHARTS AMAZING!!!!!!
When Ronnie sings it’s like he’s singing to you. Especially on Simple Man and Roll Gypsy Roll or Am I Losing
