That is the honest to gods truth, "Play it pretty for Atlanta" is what sets this song apart from the other versions. I only dig this album out every 2 or 3 years,and its only for my ears,cranked all the way up,and,if someone else is in hearing distance,they are COLLATERAL DAMAGE!!!
i want this song played at my funeral at the grave site when ever the lord decides to take me away i love this song so much all the skynyrd songs are great but this tops them all
my dad had just bought this album right before the crash,, them walking down the old town with the streets on fire,, still unwrapped and in the cover what a great loss that day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! carry on sons carry on
i was in a hospital, and im 14, the youngest person there by at least 35-40 years, and some old mans, probaly in his late 60s, phone went off. and its was the chorus of Free Bird. and the best part was, he let it ring for about a minute and nobody even looked upset at all
A one of a kind song that is a perferct combo of words and music. GOD BLESS Lynyrd"cause I'll Skynyrd. I will always STAND UP and yell "Freebird" at every concert "Cause this brid will not change "
I remember being a kid and my dad had this on a CD in his car. I would watch the timer on the CD player in fascination as I'd never heard a song go on for longer than 6 minutes or so!
best song of all time from the best band of all time the memory of those who died in that plane crash lives on through this song thanks for posting it
i love it and hate it, my speakers are screw up so when the guitar solo starts, i hardly hear guitar, which i hate, then at 7:41 all i hear is that part of the solo out of no where, its awsome. thatnks for posting

Why is the solo at the end so quiet? It's almost completely drowned out by the other noise. The solo in this version is the best part of the song.

I always love the ending of the live version, I don't know why they didn't use that ending on the regular studio version.
