Poor Alan Collins. He was never the same mentally nor physically, after his auto accident. I can remember when Skynrd got back together for the first time....They wheeled Collins out on stage in a wheelchair as they played Freebird....Hard not to get all choked up about it....He died not long after...
its almost impossible to not jump around during freebird...i mean really look at allen collins. he would jump around at the climatic parts of the solo!!!
Hey livemusicownz, thanks for posting this incredible solo to the very end...most of the other versions end about 30 seconds too early...Could you do us another favor and post the ENIRE song, that would be great!!!
this is by far the most epic guitar solo ever made, my dad got to see this live. He said the stage was filled with at least 5 differant guitarists playing it all at once XD
@herbienbrian its the most electrically charged solo. it makes you want to drive a camero into the wall at 130 mph and punch the fuck out of some people.
@herbienbrian you fucking retard, i admit this is an awesome solo, but its not the best, obviously you havn't heard of Eddie Van Halen's Eruption, Joe Santriani, Ozzy, Slash, and lets see, almost every other great rockist
@imants88 Hahahahahaha!!! What are you smoking.? The greatest ever and always will be. Free Bird is the song of all songs. Face it. Nothinfg is better or ever will be.
Dig the Stylistics in the front row clapping out of time. One looking for the way out and the other very bewildered. Should have been me there not them :-(
lol seen that goon in yellow at the front, she must be deaf cos that is the best guitar solo ever created in the history of man, and even the haters of classic rock will admit thats a damn good solo.
it's so funny when you see people in th eaudience going crazy during this song and everybody says it's because they are high and that you would never do that but when i saw them recently, (i was not stoned) theres just something about that ending that gets you movin'!!!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
solo means "one" not two three or four guitar players. Jimmy Page, Slowhand, Hendrix, Alvin Lee,and Jeff Beck could all play this is their sleep. You want to see a nice guitar solo see Jeff Beck with his double necked guitar playing Truth. Freebird is a great song maybe one of the top 10 but not for a guitar "solo"
I agree not with you, is a great alone, of the better of the history, and with a pair of eggs. And Alvin Lee is of the better of the history also. But as you can name to similar team of guitarists and... Jeff Beck?? that is very bad.
Dude it's not just how technically difficult it is... so maybe people can learn to play this after 1 or 2 years of guitar practise, and maybe every famous guitarist in the world would be able to play this. But man! listen to the energy, the whole build-up of the entire song, the imagery of the bird flying free (which is what the solo is "meaning") this is so awesome because of that.
No it's not.....Have you heard Stairway to Heaven solo that's probaly the most recognized rock solo ever. BUT always remember.... No STAIRWAY!!!!!! :D Hotel California by The Eagles is an awesome solo also. So is Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd but this isn't the best solo ever...
haha yeah I remember ^^ but I kinda like free bird more, Stairway to heaven is good, and the solo is actually better than free bird, but It's not as good as Free bird. I kinda dig lynyrd skynyrd more :P but thats my opinion :)
It's kinda hard to understand what I mean here xD What I mean is that they play better in Stairway To Heaven, but free bird is a better song :P Thats how I mean :D
This is proof that music had some fucking soul back in the day. d kill to e sent back to those days, when music, the musicians and the freedom was young, hopeful and fucking awesome
When someone out grows a band, they do because they (the band) sucks. I'm not gonna outgrow Skynyrd, nobody's gonna outgrow Skynyrd, and if you have a problem with that, go slit your wrist and listen to MCR
Right On! I saw Skynyrd 31 years ago with my best girl, and it seems like yesterday... Getting old ain't ALL bad! memories pile up and what are these yung punks gonna have to remember about 30 years from now??? SO MUCH OF THE MUSIC SUCKS NOW!
I agree, a lot of the music nowadays, just plain suck...I wish I was alive back when, could've lived them instead of just listening to them...but hey! You had an awesome time, which is awesome, so I have two more words to say to you: ROCK ON!
Stupidfatfag, you're a stupid fat fag and probably gay, don't you understand that these old ass bands like you say are the masters of rock? metallica, Ac/dc , skynyrd, zeppelin, iron maiden and much more awesome bands are old, but so fucking good, so if you don't know anything about music and you hate all that is related to music , just don't watch a music video asshole.
just keep in mind that what u hear is LIVE..also keep in mind that what u see is recorded at mid 70's. SO, the guality on this video is pretty good actually + what u hear is most likely that noone can do it now..
you obviously know NOTHING about good music. It was done live in 1977. The quality is very good for the equipment available at that time. And Skynyrd was the BEST damn band!!!!
So shut your mouth and have some respect for the great music they made and for those lost in the plane crash. you really are a stupid fat fag.
