I knew Allen has two of these Les Pauls, The sunburst and this red one.

Well John....Allen don't put up with sh*tty attitude people like you, So I guess you met your match.

That's right and there's also a juicy fruit package on the floor as from 1977

John Cougar is a "Dickhead" Guaranteed he caused all the trouble! He's so insecure as a musician he's been faking it his whole Career! Allen probably spotted the phoniness called Him out! Just like Ronnie would have! 💪🏻 Mellencamp is a Typical Arrogant "AssHole" Always has been, Always will be!

“The English Guy”, Mick Ronson, was a beast, a legend, as he was David Bowie’s guitarist on his earliest albums, playing on Starman, Moonage Daydream, Space Oddity, Changes, Jean Genie, etc. It makes no sense for there to have been any hard feelings between Collins, Mellencamp and Ronson. They were all great artists in their own right!!

🙏😇

Fuck yeah. Thanks for posting. Allen's demise was the second worst tragedy that happened to the Greatest Southern Rock Band Ever.🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💯

I've always had interest and respect for the Rossington-Collins Band. But that interest and respect is even greater for the Allen Collins Band. Will always wonder what they could have been had they continued. RIP to Allen, Billy and Leon.

I don't like the hate Ronnie's widow gets

Thankyou🎶🌹💖🇨🇦🇺🇸

Never realized Billy had such beautiful blue eyes. 😔

I love what his wife told him about talking to his best friends who have passed. She must be very special! ❤

I agree I wonder where they are all now 🎶🌈🇨🇦

i liked when allen takes the mic and whips it lol

That sounds like Allen Collins

Brandon? Thanks for sharing brother this is great I hate I missed this show so happy for Fortune Child!!

Artimus Is Contradicting Himself In different interviews…. Gary Called Him Out On it……. we’ll never really know huh ? ❓🇺🇸

How Wonderful a Video of Allen Collin’s But How Sad it was Cut Short 😢❤

This is great footage of the Allen Collins band love it not much southern rock being played up here 😢🌹🎶💕🇨🇦

Love this one ❤️

I wasn't there, so I can't say I know this, or that, for a fact. But reading some of these comments leads me to believe that their authors have done very little, if any, playing/ writing themselves. My cell phone is full of rough ideas, and a few turned into good songs Thanks 904 Sounds, I appreciated and enjoyed it much! Subscribed too, please keep them coming! Always loved Allen Collins and his awesome playing!!

This was essentially the real Lynyrd Skynyrd. And now a fraud performs under that name. RIP Allen, Billy and now Gary

Das ist American Musik...von Linjert Skinert....Beach Boys... Wanilla Fudge...Iron Butterfly.... Steve Müller....Allmählich Brothers. Cannes Heat....Frank Zappa....Monkeys??? Dr.Ilja Lasaroff.Bulgarien

sounds like the Alllman brothers jam

Does this not sound to anyone else like it should have been a hit single . I’m trying to decide does Rodgers still sound like late free, or early bad company

Not fair to call them a “cover” band. Ricky Medlocke was drummer for the band until they got a record deal-Medlocke left to form his own band, Blackfoot. Ed King was the member who created the riff that is the opening of Sweet Home Alabama. Johnny Van Zant is Ronnie’s brother-as you know, Ronnie died in the crash along with guitarist Steve Gaines and backup singer Cassie Gaines. After surviving band members healed and were ready to play again, they also recruited King to replace Gaines. Medlocke. replaced Collin’s following his car crash-Collin’s was permanently crippled in the crash, and was no longer able to play…

yeah man

John Mellencamp couldn’t make a pimple on Allen Collin’s Azz!!!! I’ve never heard of Allen being a dick but Everybody knows JCougar has been an Is one to Everybody!!!!

While i wouldn’t mind some more money , i would hate to be famous. I think it would suck ,everything private is public

That vibrato is like a 240-volt electrocution. 🙂

This is the ONLY legitimate way to handle the vocals for this song since the death of Ronnie Van Zant. If Ronnie can not sing it, it should NOT be sung.

Anyone playing Skynyrd while wearing a Bad Co t-shirt deserves a thumbs up.

Sorry, not sorry; Buddy sounds like Jimmy Page. Are we sure Jimmy didn't have an affair with a local Jacksonville lady some 20-odd years ago?

RIP AC.. you are NOT forgotten

THE GOAT! Allen Collins

John Loonycamp

Some of the VERY BEST music of planet earth..

You can tell the band was starting to really get their bearings and songs like this were the harbinger of things to come. While not played that often (or at all in live shows today), it's among one of my favorites by the band.

Whether you like him or not, you can't dispute that Mr. Medlocke was an important member of the band during the early formative years.

As amazing as this is, you can see the hurt in him and the approval of Ronnie that he was looking for. It was really tough watching this one.

I always thought it was odd that Gene talks about how he didn’t like drinking, drugging, and partying but yet he took a job with the Lynyrd Skynyrd band. He was traveling with them, hanging around them and living amongst them. Kind of an odd place to be For someone that doesn’t like drinking drugs and partying. It may just have been the best job available for making a living. but, it would have to be difficult for someone straight as an arrow to spend that much time around this group of guys.

😃 GOD BLESS YOU GARY. ❤️🙏✝️🙏❤️ THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING THE TRUE HISTORY OF SKYNRD. AND SHAREING ALL THE STORIES OF THE BAND BEHIND THE SEANS. SO ALL OF US WHO LOVE YOU WOULD KNOW .. 😢😢❤❤

9:02 name song?

Well if he hadn't played free bird that night, ed king sure would have just like he used to 😊

Love you, Gary. RIP💔💔💔

They must have been bored

That water mark is annoying

Thanks for sharing. Billy, Leon, and Allen. Not sure who's taking Gary's place. Not sure who the drummer is. It's not Artemis or Bob.

The pygmy tyrant

What a great songwriter Allen Collins was
