Billy Powell on the piano is really amazing! Hard to believe he started out as a roadie and when they were packing up after a show, he saw a piano and went over and said this is what I would add to Free Bird and played. His roadie days were over!

One of my all time fave Skynyrd songs. Once was rocking out to the song in my car, singing and drumming like a madman, until the cop pulled me over for speeding. I told him that Call me the Breeze from Skynyrd was on the radio and I lost track of my speed. He said "Great song!" and gave me a warning!!!

[@mke_gal]

Wow, that’s awesome but also actually hilarious, I literally just saw a meme on the internet the other day that said exactly, “I’m sorry I was speeding officer, but ya know I was listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd”. The moment I read that, Call Me the Breeze was the first song to come to mind! It puts me in a happy place every time.

Not enough people know how much JJ influenced Eric Clapton. Eric covered After Midnight. And did an album together. Also Don Williams (Tulsa Time) was a big vocal influence on Eric. Jamel should spin some Cale and Williams. Your audience will dig them.

[@ContrarianCorner]

Been a fan of JJ Cale since I was a kid because my mom would play his records all the time. So many of his songs have been covered by more famous artists. I have to say, though, I went to seem him perform as an adult and it was one of the worst concerts I've ever seen. The music was fine but he had no stage presence whatsoever and did nothing to engage the audience. So disappointing. Still LOVE his music though!

And to think, years prior to this song, Lynyrd Skynyrd was on a lunch break in the studio when one of their roadies, who was classically trained, sat down at the piano and started playing his version of Free Bird. The band walked back in and heard the roadie playing. Depending on who tells the story, it was several weeks or months later that the roadie became an official band member of Lynyrd Skynyrd. And just listening to him play the piano on this song, not to mention watching Jamel play "air piano" tells you all that you need to know. Great song, great reaction!

And of course, lead vocal, - Ronnie Van Zant! Written by J.J. Cale (song length - 5:23)

[@BST-lm4po]

You left out guitarist Allen Collins and drummer Bob Burns!!

[@39thala]

​@@BST-lm4po The credits I listed were only the parts that were _specifically_ credited on the album for that particular song. The album separately lists each member of the band and the instruments they each played throughout the album. But the credits for each song are only pointing out any special parts that a player performed. For example, it points out that Gary specifically did the lead for this song (as opposed to Allen) and that Ed did all the guitar fills. So, it's just understood that Allen was playing rhythm and Bob was on drums. Regular members of the band normally played their respective instruments on all the tracks except where noted, as was the case with Bob Burns. He played drums throughout the album except on "I Need You" which actually had Mike Porter on drums (who would later become the drummer of Atlanta Rhythm Section). Same with Leon Wilkerson. He played bass on all tracks except "I Need You" and "Don't Ask Me No Questions" in which Ed King played the bass. So, I wasn't "leaving them out". They just weren't mentioned in the credits for that song. Because as I said, its understood they were in there playing their instruments as they were on the majority of the rest of the tracks. And I only gave a extra mention of Ronnie Van Zant at the end of the credit list (even though he also wasn't listed) because, as important as ALL the members were, the man was the _force_ behind the band! 🙂👍💯

[@39thala]

Just a note: Back in Dec 2009, Ed King was posting in his forum talking about the Second Helping album and he listed who some of the hand clappers actually were. Here's his quote: "The hand clappers were the band members (minus me, I wasn't there that day). Wicker was Ronnie...one of his nicknames - got it from a character in a gay movie (from what I understand). A joke, naturally. Punnel is Billy Powell, I think Allen Collins was Toby. Kooper was Kooder, Mr. Feedback was our soundman Kevin Elson and Gooshie is roadie Joe Barnes. Nixon was a roadie for The Eagles who challenged us at the pinball machine many times. (The Eagles were recording ON THE BORDER in the next room.)"

keeping in line with southern rock, give TRAIN TRAIN from blackfoot. This song has the greatest harmonica playing in any song ever!

[@cavecookie1]

Well, it's good harmonica, but best ever? Give this little ditty from Little Walter, from the 50's a listen.kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2fYnYyQr9Rsf7c

This is one of my all time favorite classic rock song!! It really just makes one want to move! Great lyrics and beautiful composition. Every instrument is on point! Thank you for this one! I haven't heard this song in awhile! This was a great way to wake up this morning! 😁💚

[@michaelgilbert197]

Oh I love this one!! Lynyrd Skynyrd is such a great band and I'm so glad they were able to survive the tragedy and continue the music!!! Love the dancing Jamel!! Great way to start my day!! 😎

[@glentaylor4238]

J J Cale was who Clapton called his “man in a cave”. Take a listen to some of his recordings-King of smooth simplicity. The “Tulsa sound”

[@johnianknox1629]

Great reaction Jamel, sticking with the Southern rock genre, give this one a shot, The Georgia Satellites with "Keep Your Hands To Yourself ", this will get your head banging and feet dancing. Take care kid and cheerio from Glasgow.

[@Mariko0624]

Great song!

[@maryellenazack4466]

❤❤❤ the georgia satellites tons of hits!

[@roberthughes2402]

My dad's band would play this song. Love it!

[@michelledodge6739]

My dad and uncle's band used to cover this too! High five for having dad's in bands! I was even lucky enough to have my uncle teach me the guitar, and between myself, my awesome choir teacher, and my dad, I learned how to sing as well! Growing up listening to the classic rock of the 60's, 70's and very early 80's really helped shaped who I am today, even if it was slightly before my time!!

[@jeffblanchard2406]

This song definitively shows what the bass guitar can do to the feel of a song.

[@whoucisme]

This song makes my right foot get heavy while driving and listening to this gem loudly. ;)

[@90hatter90]

May as well and react to some Jonny Lang’s Lie to Me ASAP for ya brother from another mother. Preciate ya and keep great music alive

[@joshniles5540]

This band has many songs one can debate being the the best rock song ever

[@michaeltortorice9876]

Mister Breeze! That was just some good time rock n roll. Five to ten THOUSAND requests??? A day? Well, no wonder you haven't gotten to King's X yet.

[@musicsansnotes]

Lolol

[@tearosy]

Whenever I hear this song while driving, I'm suddenly going 85.

[@markjohnson3588]

And if the music is really good, you dance the sign right off the wall!

[@MusicLiberates]

Thanks for giving some love to this great Southern Rock band. Skynyrd was bad to the bone! Another one of their fantastic songs that you’ll like is “Swamp Music”. Check it out. And of course “Gimme Three Steps”. Keep up the fabulous work, brother.

[@garykelly7422]

More Lynyrd Skynyrd please"things goin on" is another toe tapper ☮️

[@TMM909]

Yes more Skynyrd. Tuesday’s gone

[@telebender]

Alrighty Jamel, now that you've done this cover you need to dig into its songwriter's catalog. J.J. Cale is a massively influential songwriter and performer. You can literally pick any of his albums and just start going though masterpiece after masterpiece. His 'Laidback' vibe should perfectly jive with yours! Time for a deep dive, my friend!!!

[@waynethera2712]

Love “After Midnight”, so cool and laid back. I heard Claptons couple of versions first but JJ’s original I’ll take any day.

[@bethkahn8278]

Yet another artist to look into. I think I learn as much here as anyone.

[@anneschreck5136]

I was just thinking the same thing about J.J. Cale. There's a great version of this song where he does it with Eric Clapton.

[@kennybiel9688]

I would recommend J.J. Cale Live. He was best performing before an audience.

[@martyjansing2675]

@@kennybiel9688 Best...JJ with Leon Russell at Paradise Studio...they do Goin' Down the way Don Nix wrote it.

[@richeaton7436]

Somebody about to go down the JJ Cale rabbithole... eta Naturally! lolol
