@wozjj Barry Lee Harwood is listed inside on the album credits. It wasn't the first LS album he played on he played on "NUTHING FANCY" on "MADE IN THE SHADE"..That's why he was the first choice for the third guitar spot for the Rossington Collins Band. They knew him and had worked with him before.
@wozjj I just went check out his site.. and it says he also played on "all i can do is write about it" and "made in the shade"...I never knew he played on those either..that is pretty cool.....I thought it was weird that Gary would be playing dobro like that,because he isn't a fast picker..so now it makes since that it is barry lee harwood
Apparently none of you guys have heard "Roy Nichols" brilliant guitar work on Haggard's version. Sorry guys...hate to disagree, but this guy couldn't touch Roy Nichols on his BEST day. No disrespect intended. Nichols was just the best ever at this kind of stuff!
@Kenny12554 Big "BROTHER ROY" fan here. Steve did QUITE a job on this..He got close to Roy..But Roy this was Roy''s style. Something else about Roy Nichols..Watch all the OLD Hag videos...Roy NEVER played rhythm..He would "PLAY FILLS" and let the band play...When he wasn't "PLAYING FILLS" he was just standing there..The films don't lie check it out..And you can't compare Roy To Steve anyway...Roy couldn't play slide or Rock like Steve either..."APPLES TO ORANGES"
@bluesman32783 I can see Gaines branching out on his own and headling something like Clapton's Crossroads festival if he had lived. While Gary and Allen were "BRITISH INFLUENCED", Steve's heroes were Freddie King, Lonnie Mack, Big Joe Turner, The Isley Brothers, James Brown, etc. That's why he worked so well.."HE WAS DIFFERENT" but he fit like a glove. We can only guess what he would be doing if he had lived.
aaaaahhh the sweet sound of the greatest music ever played like take your time and this one and mr banker wow what blues and just straight out kick ass music every song they ever made is good, how many bands even back then can you say that about? thought so , anyways i dont know if my life played out these songs or these songs played out my life but it's dam close either way it' been one hell of a ride, thanks for the best music ever, noke cleveland
country blues at its finest ,. check that chicken pickin, sad how guys who were considered a rock band back then , ie skynyrd the eagles et al have more country soul to them then some douchebag like toby keith
@bluesman32783 Funny thing is Allen Collins DID NOT WANT TO RECORD THIS SONG.."TOO COUNTRY" but as I've stated all along LS was "RONNIE VAN ZANT'S band and he wanted to do a tribute to his hero "THE HAG". so they recorded it. Kevin Elson said Steve Gaines did this solo in one take. Supposedly Allen and Gary just looked at each other and shook their heads, they knew there was NO WAY either one of them could have pulled it off. Gaines was a monster!
@SteveGaines I will spend the rest of my life trying to play like Gaines. But, I will fail. (PS. I know this makes me sound like a turd,but I've never hear of Kevin Elson, apart from Google, who is he???)
@fathermulcahyisrad Kevin Elson was Skynyrd's sound man. When Gaines walked on stage for his try out. Ronnie said..We are doing this as a favorite for Cassie if he sucks, turn him off, if he's ok let him play. After the gig, Elson said..."THIS GUY IS THE REAL DEAL..HIRE HIM".. Also Tom Dowd had a Rod Stewart he was doing, so Kevin Elson and Barry Rudolph actually engineered and produced "STREET SURVIVORS"...Kevin went on to great things in the music business.
Skynyrd was great at taking a country song and making it great to listen to for non-country fans. my respect for Merle Haggard went through the roof when I heard he wrote this: "Little bitsa Bakersfield...."
Skynyrd was great at taking a country song and making it great to listen to for non-country fans. my respect for Merle Haggard went through the rood when I heard he wrote this: "Little bitsa Bakersfield...."
@1benvideo Ronnie Van Zant owned every Merle Haggard album recorded up until the time of his death. Judy said when he was off the road, they didn't listen to "THE STONES or BAD COMPANY" they listened to Merle..Go back and listen to Merle's original version..They keep it pretty close..Sad thing is RVZ was due to do an album in 1978 with Merle and Waylon Jennings...Talk about Outlaw country...We can only imagine how could it would have been...
@kbrascoupe Seriously. I've read ever book I can get my hands on and it was in the works. Ronnie had even thought about getting Johnny to sing on the "STREET SURVIVORS" tour and Gary and Allen said "SCREW IT..IF YOU DON'T GO..WE DON"T GO"..( It was just a passing thought I'm sure). Haggard was on MCA and Waylon and WIllie had just done the "OUTLAWS" album with Jessi Colter and Tompall Glaser in 1976...It was all set to go down...Ronnie doing a "COUNTRY ALBUM" with his hero "THE HAG"..
Its amazing that Ronnie never wrote anything down .He would get ia a corner by hisself 20 munites and have the lyrics done and he never wrote any thing down
what a band, steve is hot, so damm hot, crisp, clean and fast. And do the band make this song boogie, wow. best album ever from the best band ever. from Australia
I had a lettering art class with Steve Gaines at Pittsburg State College back in around 1971. He spoke so softly that you could barely hear him speak, but his singing voice was very strong and good. He asked me to come over and jam with him a few times..since I also played guitar.and I never went....boy was I stupid.....he was with Man Alive at the time.....in Pittsburg, Ks. What a fine man.
I think the remaining main players from that tragic crash have every right to continue to prosper off the legend that they helped create! Especially at a time when they were beginning to reach the masses & become popular on a global scale!
Why let record execs & white collar shits reap all the benefit? These boys deserve IT!!!
@kingit Skynyrd is around today because the legacy of the original authentic Skynyrd band will never die! It is their music that the spiritual house of Skynyrd is made not the replacement band of today. I do respect Rossington as the remaining surviving original founding member but the Skynyrd who calls themselves Skynyrd in the present day is nothing more than a tribute band. That's fine & Gary can do that if he wants to. but don't confuse them with the real Skynyrd!!!
Just a question. I keep reading here about Duane Allman. How does he have anything to do with this song? Is it just a southern thang? I was a Skynyrd fan back in the mid 70's up to and ,many years after the plane crash. I agree Allman was GREAT, but why is he mentioned with Skynyrd? This song is a Merle Haggard tune and Stevie Gaines just nails it...... AND BTW: Gary and the boys shoulda hung it up after Ronnie was killed. Or at least rename the band.
i dont know who was following us around but it pretty much sums up my younger days or nite's i mean honkey tonk nite time man was the basis for most of my life these guys where phenominal every song i cant think of one not one that isnt a good song nowadays if there is a song in a bands entire career might be good if their lucky , noke
my humble opinion is this tune is SICk!!!! One of the coolest,, most incredible, twangy-ist tributes ever! Too bad they couldn't play it on Hee- Haw!!!When I went to the R & R Hall of fame in 2006 and saw the guitars used here, and Duane"s Les Paul, ..... pretty intense feelings... Thanks to Duane, Stevie, Ronnie, and others who gave us so much joy!!!
@baltusrolcaddie1 No matter what anyone says...Ronnie had lots of country in him...Most of his good friends were country singers Charlie Daniels...Haggard.... Jennings...
Its really sad when the best southern rock band of all time sounds more countryfied than that shit they play on the radio. Fuck pop-country!!!!! Long live skynyrd and Haggard
bloody awsome ole merle was so proud of this version by skynyrd and i agree it kicked ass and we need another dvd to be released of there 73/75 live concert clips do you agree . and keep it southern amen
Ah yes Steve Gaines with the chicken picken solo, and Barry Lee Harwood on the Dobro, one of my favorite tunes that Skynyrd covered, can't help but to sing along with it!! I can only Imagine where the band would be today if that day in October never happened :( Street survivors was Steves showcase, and they all sounded tight, Lovin It!!!!
Roy Clark doesn't pick like this..This is a MERLE HAGGARD SONG...Listen to the original..Merle says "ROY"..When referring to his guitar player Roy NIchols...
i'm confused "honky tonk night time man" from the original street survivors album and "jacksonville kid" from the 2001 reissue are the same exact song???
Steve Gaines was "CHICKEN PICKING" before a lot of cats other than Albert Lee and Roy Nichols knew what Chicken Picking was...Matter of fact..Ronnie says.."SOUNDS LIKE ROY"..That is who he is talking about Roy Nichols..Merle Haggard's guitar player...
ahahah ok when he says sounds like roy he means roy nichols. not roy clark.
roy nichols is the master.
and i can prove my point if u go look at the orginal version by merle haggard, its roy nichols playing on that. and thats what he means cause its a merle haggard song.
Yes..Barry Lee Harwood played some of the best guitar on their records (Made in the Shade, this song) but didn't join any of the times they changed guitarists. He was part of the Rossington-Collins band, however. I've looked all over the web, can anyone tell me why he was never in Skynyrd?
Harwood was tentativeley picked to be the guy to replace Ed King but could not join the band in the Spring of 76 because he had committed to a European tour playing with another band(it may have been the Who). Cassie Gaines talked Ronnie Van Zant into letting her little brother Steve Gaines jam with the band and he did in Kansas City. Allen Collins really liked him and so did Ronnie and the rest is history. Gaines was the best and his life cut much too short.
He's not referring to Roy Clark...He's say's it sounds like Roy and he means Merle Haggard's incredible guitarist Roy Nichols. Ronnie was paying respect to a true master!
Yes, he was referring to the guitar solo sounding like Roy Clark. I'm pretty sure it was Steve Gaines playing that solo. At 2:50 he says "Barry, play me some Dobro." That was Barry Harwood, who later played in the Rossington-Collins Band. For a long time, I thought he said "Gary, play me some dobro." I later found out I was wrong.

ahahah ok when he says sounds like roy he means roy nichols. not roy clark.
roy nichols is the master.
and i can prove my point if u go look at the orginal version by merle haggard, its roy nichols playing on that. and thats what he means cause its a merle haggard song.

Yes..Barry Lee Harwood played some of the best guitar on their records (Made in the Shade, this song) but didn't join any of the times they changed guitarists. He was part of the Rossington-Collins band, however. I've looked all over the web, can anyone tell me why he was never in Skynyrd?

Harwood was tentativeley picked to be the guy to replace Ed King but could not join the band in the Spring of 76 because he had committed to a European tour playing with another band(it may have been the Who). Cassie Gaines talked Ronnie Van Zant into letting her little brother Steve Gaines jam with the band and he did in Kansas City. Allen Collins really liked him and so did Ronnie and the rest is history. Gaines was the best and his life cut much too short.

He's not referring to Roy Clark...He's say's it sounds like Roy and he means Merle Haggard's incredible guitarist Roy Nichols. Ronnie was paying respect to a true master!

Interesting....of course, Roy Clark was so good, he may be master of the masters.

Yes, he was referring to the guitar solo sounding like Roy Clark. I'm pretty sure it was Steve Gaines playing that solo. At 2:50 he says "Barry, play me some Dobro." That was Barry Harwood, who later played in the Rossington-Collins Band. For a long time, I thought he said "Gary, play me some dobro." I later found out I was wrong.
