  • Lynard Skynard??? Seriously? XD

  • this guy mispelled lynyrd skynyrd

  • I think Ronnie Van Zant was Good Looking!!!!

  • yes ed king had a nervous break down, when his parents died. has anyone but me heard this?

  • I DONT care that i spell it wrong. ALSO they were one of the 1st to put 3 lead guitars on stage. they paid more of a price than any band. poor management, or what i dont know, someone underestimated thier investment, and should have keep a protective shield around these boys. shit, my life changed when i was a young lad of only 16 and the plane went down.

  • @67sixtyseven67 Those other bands are great but Skynyrd has more to say to me than the others,coming from Fl.and having grown up similar to them in a lot of respects.Musically they are copied by so many and many copy them and don't know it and many use their licks on guitar and don't even realize it.Yes one of the all time greats and The best to me.

  • !n 1971 Skynyrd played the homecoming dance at Orange Park High School, hard to beliieve yet true, they didn't make it big till 73. In my School yearbook they spelled their name Lynard Skynard. LOL

  • fuckn skynrd! badass dueling guitars back then,nothing today compares.

  • One of my favorite skynyrd songs!!!!

  • I hate to correct a fan, but please respect the band and spell its name right.

  • the story of my life. every time i turn around the state of georgia is trying to put me in prison for something i didn't do. this time i'm looking at five to twenty for something i definitly did not do. georgia sux. after living here 42 years i want to go somewhere else. it's not the state itself. it's the justice system.

  • Anyone who clicked dislike to this must be either an Soft in the head, a Commie, a Bin-laden Supporter or some other sort of Gook. This is the real thing so leave it to us 50+ youngsters..

  • Skynyrd is Merle Haggard's Workin' Man Blues and Stones Street Fighting Man

  • skynyrd has too many songs to pick out the best, unlike any other so called rock band out there, the who, who are worthless now of days, they ruined last years superbowl half time show lol if skynyrd were there at least they could of played exciting music. zepplin had a few good songs, skynyrd, acdc, and zztop are the only bands i would see in concerts, all the others would make me fall asleep

  • Couple of times I have been busted.

    2 times I've been to jail.

    And there are 3 hip hop lovers,

    who dont deserve a bail.

  • Skynard only had 33 of the greatest rock songs of all time. Three more years together and they would have made it 50. Besides that Id rather have the lead singer on my side in a bar room brawl than any other front man of the 20th century.

  • ***LYNYRD SKYNYRD***

  • Garys sound really made there music!!!!

  • when my twins wer born i listen to this song...and said o s3@#@@#$it

  • i aint got a favorite skynyrd song, uless theres 1 called ALL OF EM!!!!!!!!!! WHATS UR FAVORITE SKYNYRD SONG? IF YOU ONLY NAME ONE , ILL WHOOP UR ASS!!!!!!!

  • these guys influenced my other favorite southern bands lamb of god and pantera and mastodon south will rise again fellas mark my words and i feel sorry for who stand in our way \m/

  • skynard is the best for southern music- but the next is blackberry somke-

  • this rattler's gonna roll>>>>>>

  • TROUBLE!!!

  • hell yeah!

  • Yeah baby this is Skynyrd!!

  • Respect from Holland

    South will rise again ;)

    6B Skullie

  • best lynyrd skynyrd song ever

  • It's Lynyrd Skynyrd no Lynard Skynyrd

  • I love Lynyrd Skynyrd but it's Lynyrd Skynyrd (no lynard skynard!!)

  • Cant even spell right. Lynyrd Skynyrd!

  • Lynyrd Skynyrd idiot

  • Lynyrd Skynyrd is an idiot????? How dare you call Skynyrd an idiot. LOL.....SKYNYRD ROCKS

  • I also notice no backing vocals!

  • If my memory serves, this was their appearance on the "Old Grey Whistle Stop", a show that was on the BBC back in the 70's. It was kind of the equivalent of our "Midnight Special" or "Don Kirshners Rock Concert."

  • It's called the 'Old Grey Whistle Test' (I can explain why if you want.) You can still catch it sometimes late at night running the old episodes like this one.

  • I said Double Double T-R-O-U-fuckin'-B-L-E!

  • I think Gary Rossington and Allen Collins with no Ed works very well live, sometimes I think it sounds a bit cluttered with all those guitars on stage. Not on the studio versions of course, just live. =)

  • You people all need to get a life, no, new skynyrd isnt the same as old skynyrd, but they still hold strong to their sense of family, faith, and hell raising southern values, and whose to say if ronnie wasnt still alive that his songs wouldnt transition to the present in a similiar way. If you were a more dedicated fan, you would know that Ronnie originally planned on handing over the reigns to Johnny in 1978 anyway. Though Gary's all that remains, their still skynyrd to many of us.

  • Yeah he was going to turn the strongest band in the world over to lil Johnny. But he had Steve Gaines going out on stage and singing on "One more from/for the road and Steve was going to sing more on the Street survivors tour. Ronnie was prepin Steve to take over. Sadly they both left us on the same ill fated day or we would have seen Steve out in front singing Skynyrd song's. P.S Johnny aint even close to Ronnie. The rule of 3 original member's to tour under Lynyrd Skynyrd. money&GREED

  • Johnny and Ronnie are very different people indeed, but they share the same blood, and the plane crash hit the family hard. I dont think its greed at all, Skynyrd never planned on continuing, the album "Legend" sold so well that the reunion tour followed, and it went so well too that they havent stopped since. They keep going because so many fans still love and support them, even if there is only one member left...

  • That's not true at all. Do some research on the band. Johnny was going to take over Skynyrd in 1978 while Ronnie started a solo country career and managed the band. (It's all in Gene Odom's book "Lynyrd Skynyrd: Remembering the Free Birds of Southern Rock" (Gene Odom was Ronnie's best childhood friend and WAS on the plane when it went down... Johnny was going to front Skynyrd either way...fate just ripped it out differently.

  • I actually have that book, its been quite a while since I read it though, and yes, I've heard of Ronnie's plans of starting a country career and handing the reigns over to Johnny in 78. I must have read wrong elsewhere then because I've been given so many reasons for Ronnie wanting to do this, one even claiming his voice was shot and he couldnt sing as well as he used to, ill have to re-read the book again :P

  • There is no telling what might have been had Steve Gaines survived.....He kicked ass.

  • Wasn't Ronnie one hell of a Bad Ass singin this song or what...

  • i luv 2 watch ronnie... he means that shit hes singin!! what a badass man-RIP

  • fuckina right!!!

  • someone tell me where i can get a hat like that... it is style

  • most of ronnies hats and stevie ray vaughans too,come from Texas Hatters in texas- check out their website, you can order a ronnie hat for 300-500 dollars!

  • ThyMykeMeydows sycks

  • Ronnie is wearing Specialist rank on his hat.

  • that hat on his head is more like a crown representing the king of rock in the south.

    right on brotha

  • - im sorry for the language in this comment - LOOK YOU DICK! THE NAME OF THE FUCKING BAND IS LYNYRD SKYNYRD NOT FUCKING "LYNARD SKYNARD" PEOPLE WILL START SPELLING IT LIKE THAT IF YOU DICKS KEEP SPELLINGS WITH "As" so............. GO FUCK YOURSELF. - now aside from my outburst in anger.. they are true legends like said in the description. - - BYE BYE :D - ~TheMikeMeadows

  • you need to take it easy you moron and stop ruining life!

  • I knew Allen, and all the guys worked so hard to become what they became, but Artemus Pyle really "built a fire" under the band. (Ronnies words, more or less).

    Just watch him.

  • pyle is my favorite drummer even though im a guitar player, he knows when to fill in and when to be quite, thats what makes him the man

  • your full of shit i bet you dont even play guitar that drummer is named rossington!

    haha what a dumb ass

  • hahahahahahahahahahahah you fuckin idiot hahha go check yourself on that the first drummers name was bob burns and the second drummer for the original lynyrd skynyrd band was artimus pyle.

    hahah wow your a fuckin retard

  • Ricky Medlocke also played drums 70-71

  • he played drums when bob was sick. for a week/1 week @ Muscle Shoals as the studio was already paid for. he was just a hired hand then as well as now. well for 1 week

  • bob acually quit during the tourture tours due to stress and they met arty in a club and they jammed....got hired that night

  • rossington pays the guitar, not drums

  • lynYrd skynYrd ¬¬'

  • Drummer in the video is Artymus Pyle.

  • I seen them back in early 70's..from what I can remember I had a really good time :-D

  • WOW. I really envy anyone who saw the Ronnie and the original band

  • What a fantastic band, I was lucky enough to see them at Knebworth back in the seventies, and again in London after that. I still lament that dreadful day that it all came to an end. R.I.P. Ronnie, Steve, Cassie, and Dean

  • This is one of the best Skynyrd Songs they ever made. nice add. and just b/c i like being annoying i will add to what everyone else said , Skynyrd not Skynard

  • its LYNYRD SKYNYRD, not lynard skynard, WHO THE HELL GIVES A FUCK TOSSERS ALL BEST FROM YORKSHIRE WHERE WE CALL A CUNT A CUNT AND BROWNS OUR PM IS A CUNT

  • its LYNYRD SKYNYRD, not lynard skynard,

    for you nobodys

  • "It's pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd" and spelled Lynyrd Skynyrd...

  • Great Vid, bad spelling (people that spell it wrong are not fans) :-( SKYNYRD RULES!!

  • nutty song

  • does it annoy anybody else when people spell lynyrd skynyrd wrong?

  • yes it fucking pisses me off, one of my old band mates, who I hate now spelled it Lenard skenird, and spelled Black Sabbath Black Sabith, that's why I wrote all the lyrics because my vocabulary was superb compared to his, I think the fact that I could spell and speak correctly and corrected him when he was stupid was the reason why I got fired

  • @RayGun1band Bet you won all the spelling bees when you was young LOL

  • @RayGun1band haha I hear ya....its not an easy one to spell correctly though ...lol Ive loved em all my life and I catch myself having to look back and check my spelling on them too! lol

  • @RayGun1band yes

  • great video

  • it's pronounced leh-nerd sky-nerd god damn!

  • lynyrd skynyrd!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Does anyone know why he sang in two diferent mics? Something about a stereo sound set up maybe?

  • yea man.1 mic 4 highs,1 mic 4 low treble.

  • awsome song from an incredible band. from the album "gimme back mybullets." which was one of there worst albums selling wise. which i dont get. it had soo many good songs such as all i can do is write about it and cry for the badman.

  • Produced by the great Tom Dowd. Listen to other Dowd great achievements, Live at Filmore, Derrick and dominos, etc you will find his contribution to laying these grooves into vinyl is utterly amazing. The sales where more genre dependent and the swing of American tastes was embracing Arena rock, Disco, etc then coming into the new wave..this decreased sales of some of the great band of the mid 70's. The depth of Ronnie's song-writing was peaking, if only the Lord would have left Him here.

  • rich you don't have copywrite, you better lookout for the law.

  • One of the most underrated bands and underrated songs of all time.

  • @67sixtyseven67 - Underrated? Depends on who you talk to my friend. For real rock fans, Skynyrd are up there with Zeppelin, Cream, The Allman Brothers, Stones, Floyd, Beatles, Doors, The Who, Purple, Tull, Eagles.......

  • @JGBugs Hate the Doors, don't give a shit for the Stones, The Beatles are bitch made, The Who? is right, all the rest are THE SHIT! It's all just personal preference, however, i do recognize all the others as classic rock.

  • @phantomshtter Dude the Beatles were Rock n' Roll band and their misic IS classic rock, so do everyone a favor and quit hating.

  • @BL80488 I can say whatever the fuck I want. What the fuck are you gonna do about it huh? I think the Beatles are for pussies like yourself. So what of it pussy?

  • @phantomshtter wow, dude your issues are too deep to be solved here, but you go on and be web-brave. Sad human. I feel for people like you but I can't help you.

  • @phantomshtter : Buddy, go get fucked...if ya can.

  • @JGBugs : At least eh?

  • @JGBugs for real southern rock fans, Skynyrd is all the way up there. Of rock, also all the way up there, atleast for real rock coniseur, did i spell that right?

  • @67sixtyseven67 yer i jsut learnt this on guitar and its so freakin hard!

  • One of my fave Skynyrd songs, although they're all great. Funny how this song was written. Rossington & Ronnie were in the drunk tank one night after a bar brawl, and Gary mentioned how it was his second time in there. Ronnie mentioned he's been there so many times he stopped counting. That's where Gary named Ronnie: "Double Trouble". By the way, I have this whole concert and sell it on eBay. Look out for it!

  • Please give me the ebay #

  • So i guess you clicked on this video by mistake? If so leave the comments for us fucking rednecks to make.

  • Hey scream Rednecks drive Mustangs too LOL

    These MoFos Rocked for their time isnt that what your profile says? You like Rock? It's called Southern Rock, its hard to play too and to sound like that live they kicked major ass..

    I love rock too but you have to listen to different genres to appreciate how far it has evolved. I like more hard rock and Metal, but they should get the props they deserve**

    Guess you jumped in a Rose bush and came out smellin like shit :)

  • what's the rednecks???i'm not from us!!

  • wikipedia it. lotta people call us rednecks to piss us off but it dont piss me off. Red neck refers to southern working men that work out in sun hence red neck form sun beatin down on em. but rednecks have evolved into a whole sorta like sub culture am i right people? if im wrong i appologize I dont know how to explain things, im not good with words. but I mean no disrespect.

  • thanks!!

  • As Outstanding today as it ever was!

  • fing great tune

  • this song always makes me feel like i just kicked some ones ass. god bless skynyrd

  • the BEST band ever. it's just perfect. no flaws at all in the band. they were perfect together, all of them.

  • I HAVE to agree with you my friend! 100% You are a man with very good taste!

  • High5150Roller

    You said it all. I'm just glad i got to see them live before the crash. By far the best southern rock band ever. Ronnie was the best frontman ever.They even blew Mick Jaggers & the Stones ass off the stage at knebworth in england in Micks house. C'mon who else had the balls to have 3 lead guitarists. NOBODY !!!!!

  • It's "Lynyrd Skynyrd," not "Lynard Skynard." All y's, you tool. It's not hard to remember. Get it right or don't bother.

  • is it true that all the band are dead or are just some?

  • Most of them are. The only original members still alive are Ed King, Artimus Pyle, Billy Powell, and I think the female backup singers, except for Cassie. R.I.P. 1977, Cassie.

  • You forgot Gary Rossington

  • Oh yeah, Gary. Sorry about that, I should know better. O_O

  • Gary Rossington is still alive as well my friend

  • Yeah, I corrected myself.

  • Artimus Pyle how ever is not apart of the band he left for the fact that the band started getting back into drugs and he did not want anything to do with it. Also Garry Rossington is still in the band as a guitarist. sorry if i misspelled his name.

  • this is a cool song

  • The new Skynyrd sucks because, although Johnny sounds similiar, 1. He voice has no soul/blues element, and 2. They are kinda trying to ride the suscess of the old Skynyrd, and their music aint nearly as good. Love the original, not so much the new one.

  • I agree, but Skynyrd fans don't like to hear that.

  • rock on guys, and for all you super spellers out there, ... get over it.

  • you retards need to learn how to spell lynyrd skynyrd right.. theres no freakin a in it at all..

  • lax you are a prick!!! there is nobody that can do what Johnny s doing, you think they should let it die, just think, you don't see Johnny you don't see Gary or Billy I guess they suck too, learn how to talk to people too

  • who gives a shit, did you know what they mean? I am guessing yes so quit being such a little bitch

  • Chemistry is either there or it isn't. Like VanHalen with David Lee Roth. Kicks ass. VanHalen with Sammy Hagar? Sucks. David Lee Roth solo? Pretty sucky too.

  • I respect the new Lynard Skynyrd for continuing the legacy, but I just can't relate to it because it doesn't have the blues feel to it anymore!

  • This is my friend colton's dad's band =]

  • Best band there is!!!! good song!

  • I LOVE THIS  BAND

  • Connorlee...its amazing at the ignorant people here that know nothing about this great band..read my response to classicrockgolfa and do urself a favor and dont ever try to tarnish that mans name again

  • classicrock punk ass its for ur skynyrd history lesson..whoever has filled up with all that is crap..first off skynyrd fans treat everybody with respect,not act like a prick..secondly,artimus pyle "IS" considered a hero and that comes from the guys in the band,and in this video? ed or steve arent in it so who the hell are u to tell me i know nothing about them,i speak with ronnies cousin jimmie and a few other skynyrd family members,and last but not least leons son is my bass player,get over it

  • hey classic rock cocksucker.i dont care how many times u have seen skynyr...u cant tell me anything about them i dont know.i actually talk to some of the skynyrd family on a daily basis and they dont appreciate little punks like u that talk the way u do..u started the whole thing by the way u talk.,..billy powell plays everything he played then so get over it and if u notice nobody here likes u..so go home

  • who was saying artimus pyle is good ? he's a registered sex offender who molested two little girls, also he lied about being shot by a farmer at the scene of the plane crash and according to he surviing bandmates, instead of running to gt help, he was just running because he wanted to save himself

  • Prove your accusations!

  • THANK GOD FOR STEVE Gains!!!! He made the band with artie and ronnie!!

  • ronnie is and will always be the heart of this band /sorry,its like if the doors ever got together again itd never be the same

  • hey cabeart learn to spell there name right

    you disgracing this band there name is spelled lynyrd skynyrd

  • Artimus Pyle is a great drummer and considered a hero to the survivors of the plane crash.u got a problem with Artimus u dont much about music

  • you dont know anything about this band

    he was consied a villain beacuse he left and did not help them out

  • cant really say u saw Skynyrd if Ronnie Van Zant wasnt there....and hes been gone 30yrs. now BITCH...talkin like u grown

  • hey bitch ever heard of his little bro jonnie takin up the mike

  • did you not hear me i said jonnie
