And here’s a band that had a legitimate claim to call themselves Lynyrd Skynyrd and didn’t. Unlike the current cover band that does. Very cool to see this. RIP to the great Allen Collins

You are absolutely right. How they continued touring under that name without even one original band member is ridiculous. They should just retire the name and the band.

Agree, did you know he never set out to be lead guitarist? Funny to even think abt after the great leads & solos he did but in the beginning he was w/group w/friend Larry Steele & was perfectly happy playin rhythm guitar only. Larry said they really only started band after they saw reaction of girls to the Beatlet, they wanted to get girls! He really wasn't that good according to Larry(it would be great to see from footage of those days when they did the Battle of the Bands etc. Abt that time is when he & Gary started playing together every moment they could. One would learn a line they would teach the other & I believe it was during that time their bond was formed & they encouraged & taught each other. The more they practiced, the more confidence they got & during that time Gary joined up w/Bob & Ronnie & Ronnie liked what he saw w/the two guitarists & that's when Allen quit Mods & went to play with One Percent. The duo of Rossington & Collins are highly under appreciated, the way they were so in sync that at times , you felt like they were 1 guy, it was that smooth

@kathyrais5746 ай бұрын
He was hanging on by a thread, he had times where he could pull himself together & do a show but ultimately ACB fell apart just like RCB did. He & Gary had go much guilt because they were only 2 that lived in that part of plane, everyone around them died. They lost Ronnie who was like a brother, a father,a mentor. They had terrible injuries that took awhile to get better. Then they decided to start RCB, he & Gary were doin so much better then Kathy died & Allen had even more guilt over not being a better husband. He slept w/Dale Krantz but then she & Gary fell in love. That caused some issues btwn the two & then he wouldn't show up half the time. Gary & Dale got married & had to get away from all the drama plus they wanted to start a family. Allen pulled himself together enough to start ACB but I think all the guilt was too much. He was always a crazy man behind the wheel & even though he had a girlfriend, he still missed Kathy & may not have cared if he lived or died but instead the girl died & he was left paralyzed. Such a tragic chain of events. He really was messed up even as far back as Kindergarten. It still breaks my heart to think abt his story & how sadly things ended for him. I hope he is with Kathy & the whole Skynyrd Skynyrd band are rocking. Out & he is whole again. RIP Allen❤❤

This was the only time that collins truly felt comfortable in his own skin was up on stage outside of that. I'm sure he was depressed and using a lot.... it's well documented. Too bad man, The airplane tragedy We lost Incredible songwriter and guitarist steve gaines( & sis) and one of the great singers of the seventies, Ronnie VanZant. And then you lose allen and eighty three or eighty four. But imagine if we hadn't lost those 3 guys. How incredible Lynyrd Skynyrd would have been throughout the 80s and into the 90s. I would have truly been a fan of theirs but after streets survivor I just wanted nothing to do with the band anymore other than the music on the Rossington Collins band LP. I've got the first L. P. Is an original copy from when it came out. It was handed down to me by my brother who saw that band tour In Raleigh, North Carolina in 1980 Along with rossington/ Collins band was the Little River. Band and Molly Hatchett what a friggin 3course show.. And of course, the Allen Collins band was bad a** too. But too bad Steve Gaines Allen Collins and rossington Couldn't have stayed together and been a trio of virtuoso players for Lynyrd Skynyrd.. They would have made so much incredible music in the eighties and beyond. And I would have been a much bigger fan of them if those guys would have been able to stand the test of time. The street survivors

Agree, Allen was hanging on by a thread after his wife died in 1980, he was really a walking dead, she was his rock & he had SO much guilt, 1st over plane crash & fact that he & Gary were right in middle of 4 that died, but when Kathy Collins died Allen suffered incredible guilt, wondering if God took Kathy to punish Allen for being a serial cheater on the road or if he took her to get her away from Allen or both. After RCB, he pulled himself together enough to start ACB but he was drowning in booze & drugs. I am surprised he made it as long as he did. Sad part is his accident was in 1986 that paralyzed him, they had already been planning a reunion of Lynyrd Skynyrd for the 10 yr anniversary of the plane crash, he might have been able to pull himself out of it, who knows. After his accident he was just a shell of a man. So very sad.

And another 15 years of full-blown addiction after my release. I always admired and respected Collins, Rossington, Gaines, and Ricky Medlocke. Man, oh man, that band experienced such heart break.

Maybe the audio is bad, but this performance musically isn’t remotely close to the performance they put on in Oakland 6 years earlier. Allen Collins allegedly almost lost his right arm in that plane crash and Leon Wilkeson was so badly injured he had to alter the way he held the base. Their music this night in ‘83 didn’t seem to have the pace, tempo, or crispness of their play pre-crash.

Dragging my gear to the stage to open for a Band at Action NJ in probably 1987, there was a grand piano with some older guy clanking away, sounding disjointed and out of key. I was thinking, 'why?'. At some point I stopped the load in, and had to peer over the top of the piano as I heard some familiar intervals and glancing over seeing reverse and switchback hand technique as the tempo started to pick up. Then I realized that the man was playing the solo/outro on Sweet Home Alabama, and I was at the piano watching Billy Powell play his warmup on the house instrument.

No, his explorer is at the rock n roll hall of fame. The bands equipment (guitars at least) was elsewhere when the plane crashed

He didn't live in peace bro, his mark was prob to leave this great solo to everyone like you overlooking that, altho he did kill someone while drunk and probably faced pretty harsh judgement from that
