34 years ago today three of these great musicians lost their lives in a tragic plane crash!! I think I will drink a beer right now in memory of them and the music they gave us!!!
@MsH1h1h1h1 well i see you finally found out how to spell hippies, your welcome. And I see you are still listening to best music ever recorded.. And you admit forrest gump brought you here, i dont know if there is any hope for you or not. But hey have a good one keep listening to SKYNYRD.
@MsH1h1h1h1 Skynyrd is the word. I think you are finally realizing how great these "Hippies" really were.Keep listening to Ronnie and you will eventually see what its all about. Have a good week.
anyone who does not believe that this is one of the greatest songs/instrumentals can kiss my ass.free bird can take you from pissed off to happy or grouchy to ready to ... any of you who disagree are fucking communists. kiss my ass.
Rogan didnt bring me here.. I've always loved Skyard, and my uncle passed... This was played at his funeral over and over. The beautiful guitar solo on shuffle. "If I leave here tomorrow, Would you still remember me?" Why yes yes I do. I love you Uncle Bill. R.I.P.
@MsH1h1h1h1 Just to let you know you spelled a and hippie wrong. And in case you didnt know the majority of us had long hair at that time looks better than wearing our pants down around our knees. And you are listening to best band ever formed, if you dont like how they look watch something else its that simple.
@MsH1h1h1h1 so you say hum a lot thats very interesting, So why put us down because we wore our hair long, . live and let live, why are you watching a music video from the 70s complaining about hair styles, humm let me guess nothing better to do.
@chance501 well I heard this on forrest Gump and I wanted to see who are those bizarres. And I found long hair dudes. And I said: "go get a haircut hippy!"
@africanbully31 You my friend are neither black nor intelligent. How does it feel to know that your words carry no weight and are never listened to or believed. Can see right though you...
@MrHendrixPage Point taken. It is still funny that a person would promote himself to be black while it is obvious that he is not. Oh btw africanbully31, we are not really talking about you behind your back...we realize that you are still in the room
@africanbully31 I'm Canadian so i don't give a shit. If I were American, I wouldn't vote for that selfish fuck Obama. He passes unfair bills in the Canadian-American foreign trade policies.
@ript2damaxx Sorry fail....you are indeed racist...but on the other hand America needs to get away from looks etc... I heard a news person state before the republican debate the other day that a certain potential nominee "looked the part". What the heck does "looking the part" have anything to do with qualification of a president? If we dont but begin to vote with passion and intelligence I feel our country is doomed
@ript2damaxx so tell me, when does white and blinding have anything at all in common? I'm white and if somebody came up to me and said "Man I can't look at you, you are so white its blinding me". Another way to put it would be "Man it was pitch black! I thought the Earth,Wind and Fire concert was empty until a whole bunch of people smiled." Same thing and I repeat...you are indeed racist. Get help.
at 1st i thought whats wrong with those people in the crowd just standing there and not even cheering, then i realized they're probably so stoned they think they're in an elevator with the music turned up really loud lol
Joe Rogan - This was filmed in Oakland at the Oakland Coliseum. Isn't it amazing to look at that crowd and see how naturally beautiful all of those women are? I won't say anything about race and how drastically the demographics have changed over the years - but look at those people - natural, slender and in shape, radiant and happy. Compared to Oakland/America today, fake, obese, unhealthy, depressed and on Prozac.
Love the song, but i think this comment is about 40 years too late: WHO EDITED THIS FOOTAGE?! this song is known for having one of the most complex and recognizable guitar solos in Rock n' Roll why do we not see them play it?! especially when the solo kicks in! guitars wailing away, we get shots of a bored crowd member and the piano player. WTF??!!!
This was my mothers favorite song so much she would listen to it over and over...brings back good memories to hear this song. I am glad to have this song to listen to when I start missing her..The tears arent so painful when Im smiling thru them...I miss you Mommy,and Love you more. R.I.P Sandra Dickens xoxo Gone but never will be forgotten
@GummyyBearrrr I have been saying this lately too. I was a teenager in the 70's and think this is true. Its the pharmeceuticals, wireless, chemicals, bad food etc.
it sucks now that the original guitarer is in the band now and the drummer is still alive but doesnt play the lead singer died in a plane crash,and the rest are dead what a shame all thats left is his memories.my dad went to one of there concerts when he was 17 and the lead singers brother couldnt sing because it would be dishonor and so they just did the instrumental
I was at this concert, it was one of Bill Grahams Day on the Green Concert. The place was packed, and it was the most beautiful day ever.
We sat in the back, the sound was beautiful, and the piano was great and all the guitars were crystal clear, we were very lucky to have been there and seen them!
Interesting ,at 7:41 the blond in the yellow shorts is groovin' out..The camera comes back to her at 8:18 and oh my goodness,she's set them free..Truly,A FreeBird..Miss those days when chicks would just lose their tops for any reason they saw fit..
@EXTERMINETOR This reminds me of home; I grew up with this band. I am almost brought to tears just by listening to this song. Along with Sweet Home Alabama.
@DeathMetalLover59 I live in the opposite side of the planet, Italy, but every time I listen to them, I really feel like the places they describe would be my home. That's really music. Art.
