  • FLY HIGH FREE BIRD OH YEAH!!!!!!!!

  • The last recording of the true freebird ='(

  • @TheDreamcatcher1977 This fantastic song I've been listening to for almost 40 years... And it still does me in, emotionally, spiritually, I JUST LOVE IT SO MUCH... I am a free spirit I've asked my only son to play it at my funeral! ITS ME ALL OVER, I CANT CHANGE.....

  • @theonemodifier not everyone on the plane died..... The guy thats the piano player was on the plane. Also there was a guy that played guitar, I think, that ended up in a wheelchair. He eventually committed suicide.  There may have been more, that's all I can think of at the moment.

  • @MrDave1432 thanks for answering my question about Duane. those two groups were awesome,im 59 years young and remember it like it was yesterday.too bad there gone. when steve joined the band they went from a good band to a great band. we missed out on a lot of great music all these years. i feel bad for the kids today that they couldn't experience the concerts of the 70's. rock on people !

  • First Lynyrd Skynard song I ever heard and i love it to this day.

  • To this day I still have a tear in my eye every time I hear this song. This is hands down the absolute greatest song ever written. Take stairway and shove it. This song is pure emotion.

  • Wow sheer brilliance!

  • Duane

  • It was dedicated to Daune yes ....
