Simple Man is my all time favorite too!! Listened to it all the way to Tahoe in my sister vw in '77 in a blizzard all the way to Alpine Meadows... Over and Over and Over! I think it was our only tape!
They didn't do this song the day that I got to see them .. But I think you might like the video's that I shot last July 3rd at Henderson Automotive on 17th Ave. in Santa Cruz, it was great!! You should check it out!! ...
Needle and the Spoon, Sweet Home Alabama, That Smell, and Freebird.
not bad. not like amazing either, but not bad. solid cover. didn't really hear anybody play any bum notes. the singer gets just slightly off-pitch here and there, but yeah... i like it.
this band is phenomenal. i have chills. CHILLS. only skynyrd can give me chills. this is absolutely the best i have ever heard next to the band. is there any album of covers that i could buy? this is seriously some of the best work i've heard for a cover band.
folks please take into account weather eliments when your judging the quality this was outside in the wind as apposed to in a club or studio- Steve Mgr The Gator Alley Band
hey MR Hollier than thou it must feel good to trash the dead ! this man was killed in a car accident 3 months after this show , if i ever find out who you are the wrath of GODS going to come down on ya buddie u try singing in a 40mile an hour head wind oh and by the way when the Karma hits you remember this song ass hole come find me im BEGGING YOU!!!!!!
When Mel stood on that stage he poured his heart and soul in the music. I love this man and you trashing him is way out of line. He does a damn good job singing and always has. Perhaps you should attend a show and say this to the band if you have the balls to. I personally don't think you do. Its easy to type words when you don't have to back them up face to face. I think your a coward and pathetic. Come on down to a show. Would love to meet you.
Lynyrd Skynyrd was a 70s band and in 1977 the lead singer ronnie van zant , stevie gaines and his sister were killed in a plane crash this is just the music we wanted to do in our later years several of us are almost 50 but go back and listen theres some great music from this band that never made it on the radio .....Steve- Mgr The Gator Alley Band

Vocals are good. This is a very good rendition. I don't know what the rest of y'all are talking about. But the song title is "Simple Man."

are they a cover band?
Why don't they do something original instead of copying LS?
