Billy Powell was the Pianist for Lynyrd Skynyrd. He started out as a Roadie. One day during a break from Unloading the Equipment he sees a Piano. He starts playing Free bird. The Band members hear him playing Free bird. They found out he had been Classically trained in Piano. They promoted him from Roadie to the Band as the Pianist.

[@chrisfurlough466]

He was also spokesman for the band after the crash.

[@mykalbizu906]

[@jonsteiner1680]

@@philpennington826 You are absolutely correct. What I was meaning to say was Skynyrd’s guitarists played together and recorded albums together. Of course Gaines replaced King later on and kept the trifecta going until the plane crash. The Yardbirds had Clapton who left and was replaced by Page and Beck. All greats as well.

[@GBeret83]

@@philpennington826 , That's exactly why Rolling Stone's opinion on anything musical anymore means dick to me. They're more about politics than music these days. Do Clapton, Beck, & Page all belong on the top 100 list.............absolutely. But are they 3 of the top 5 guitarist of all time..................please, that makes me laugh too hard. Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Winter, Duane Allman, Jimi Hendrix, Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher & Alvin Lee all 7 are/were better than any of the 3 afore mentioned, IMO. And for the record, that's the same Alvin Lee who didn't even make that same top 100 list, which is a travisty and an absolute joke, and tells you exactly how seriously any Rolling Stone list of anything "Top" can be taken. Quote............."Stevie was an endless, open channel that music just poured out of. He made people who'd never touched a guitar in their life want to pick one up and start playing, and he made those of us who'd played with him onstage before want to quit." And may I remind you sir that quote was made about Stevie Ray Vaughan by Slowhand himself............Eric Clapton.

This one, along with songs like Molly Hatchet's Flirtin' with Disaster, are among the ultimate songs for driving (way too fast) down the road. The J.J.

Written and originally recorded by the late, Great JJ Cale. The original has a very different vibe from the Skynyrd version - JJ was laid back and the original reflects his persona. He was said to like the Skynyrd version very much - the royalties probably helped! :)

I’ve recommended this song for a long time now with many others and glad for them to hear it! It’s amazing to know at one time the JJ Cale version is all we ever knew until Skynyrd covered it! Your right, JJ made a few bucks off this song as one of Skynyrd’s finest hits!
