First reaction to LYNYRD SKYNYRD - "Free Bird" (Live Oakland Coliseum Stadium)

I absolutely loved hearing Verdy talk about how mellow it was and then "Oh! The tempo picked up a bit..." And all I can think is, "Girl, you'd best strap yourself in, now!" This was always a heck of lot of fun to play in Guitar Hero, as well.

[@alanmcclure9546]

Much more fun to get a smart ass in the audience who yells out, "FREE BIRD," only to bust out a version on guitar that puts tears in that same smart asses eyes.

I was thinking the exact same thing!. "Honey, we're just getting started! That was the introduction"!

[@1701ALLEN]

@@alanmcclure9546 That "smart ass" is actually an indicator of just how powerful this song is. It is THE ROCK ANTHEM. And real evidence that The Lynyrd Skynyrd Band was one of the greatest bands to ever take the stage. And the only band to ever blow Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones off their own stage in their own country. There was not a single band that could match the pure power of The Lynyrd Skynyrd Band. And if Ronnie had known as much about aircraft as he knew about music, they'd have set sales records that would have beaten Elivis and The Beatles. Records that would have stood for a very long time.

Artimus Pyle, the drummer kept the band's pace just like it was meant. He's one of the last survivor's and you just have to wonder what music that was never made when their plane went down. This video was made over 45 years ago. I was 18 years old and had just graduated HS and I'll soon be 64, just like all these girls rocking and now we need pain reliever to walk throughout the day.

Really fun when a person you like is about to listen to one of the all-time historic songs for the first time. Was pretty psyched to watch this! Some might say this is the "Stairway to Heaven" of Southern Rock. I wouldn't argue. The song takes off like a bird that's finally free, and we fly right along with it. Really tragic that only a couple of months later half of them would be killed. And never should've happened.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Lynyrd Skynyrd (the original band) was from Jacksonville, Florida and played Southern rock, which had roots in country and bluegrass (they named themselves after Leonard Skinner, a high school teacher they all hated 😂)... They debuted in 1973 - their first albums was "Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd"... and worked the touring circuit to build a following and were known for their 3-guitar line-up of Allen Collins, Ed King and Gary Rossington... Ronnie Van Zant was the lead singer, Leon Wilkeson on bass, Billy Powell on piano, and Bob Burns on drums. The band carried on releasing albums - 'Second helping' (1974)... "Nuthin' fancy' (1975)... "Gimme back my bullets" (1976)... Bob Burns was replaced by Artimus Pyle (drums), Ed King was replaced by Steve Gaines (guitar)... and Lynyrd Skynyrd finally struck platinum success in 1976 after releasing the live album 'One more for the road' that year. That is the band in this video clip. Gary Rossington played the slide guitar, while Allen Collins and Steve Gaines did the finale. The band recorded their 5th album 'Street survivors' in 1977, but just before the release, Lynyrd Skynyrd were on tour flying in a rented airplane which crashed in Mississippi in October on 1977... Ronnie Van Zant (vocals), Steve Gaines (guitar) and Gaines' sister Cassie Gaines (backup singer) were killed in the crash. Lynyrd Skynyrd disbanded as a result. In 1987, Lynyrd Skynyrd reformed w/ Ronnie's younger brother Johnny Van Zant taking over vocals... but the later albums were not as successful as the original band's records. Most of the original band have passed away... Gary Rossington (guitar) is the only original member left. Former drummer Artimus Pyle is still alive... Allen Collins (guitar) was paralyzed in a car crash before he died in 1990... bassist Leon Wilkeson died in 2001... keyboardist Billy Powell died in 2009... former guitarist Ed King died in 2018... former drummer Bob Burns died in 2015.

The Lynyrd Skynyrd band is the real deal when it comes to classic rock bands. Lots of bands can make music in a studio but to be able to put on a show the way that they did is what really defines a classic rock band and they could really perform. Thank you I love your reaction to this ☺️

[@MikeElliott-hj6nu]

I’ve seen probably more than 50 reaction videos of Free Bird, and yours is my favorite. The way you said “God damn” a few times was so appropriate and funny at the same time. I’m 66 now and I got to see Lynyrd Skynyrd twice, once in ‘74 and once in ‘76. Some people say that the Knebworth version is better, but I’ll take this one every time. I really wish that you could go back in a time capsule and see this performed in person. I’m subscribed to your channel and I look forward to seeing more reactions from you. All the best from Wilmington, DE 😊🎸

This was one of the classic lineup's last performances. Only a few weeks after this concert, the band was in a horrific plane crash, and Ronnie Van Zant (lead singer), Steve Gaines (guitar), and Cassie Gaines (backing vocals) all died in it, along with two crew members, and everyone else was badly injured. They did restart the band about 10 years later with Ronnie's younger brother on lead vocals, but when you think about the talent lost in that crash...
