Although I was not a big fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd, I had Freebird on a 7" 45. Great piece of music. How did they manage to squeeze the full version, 9 minutes plus on a 45 single!

RIP.

Like Lynyrd Skynyrd a lot, was listening to One More from the Road only yesterday.

5 absolute classic albums in 4 years. Superb band.

Doesn't get much better than that.

The first two albums are great records, had the pleasure of seeing them twice at the Glasgow Apollo.

Collins, King and now Rossington, three excellent musicians. RIP.

Another one gone
Always loved the time they were on OGWT and they dropped the Confederate flag.

Strange group. To my ears one great track, one decent one and meh. And then the recent right-wing lyrics......
