Instrumental guitar cover of Skynyrd's killer first song off their first album. Main/lead guitar parts played along to the (subsequently muted) album track on my 2016 Firebird.

This is as good as any isolated guitar track I’ve ever heard.

[@brotherjasonbrown9590]

Best I’ve ever heard. Been listening for 35 years.

[@GuitarGuyBornInTheWrongDecade]

Badass tone and amazing picking!

[@mikemackenziemusic]

Thank you!

[@jeffreyhogan7298]

Just saw Skynyrd last month in Concord great show but no Rossington!!🙏❤️💯👍

[@tinkerbelle252]

Damn!!!!!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!!!!!

[@mikemackenziemusic]

Thanks! 🤘

[@correctbadguitartechnique1025]

This is a rare format for guitar content on youtube and sincerely appreciated! Amazing @#$%^ing guitar too - conspicuously missing from my collection. Terrific tone!!! Perfect performance.

[@MrArnoldarnold]

I've yet to hear the feel of Allen Collins in someone's playing but you nailed it. If I closed my eyes I wouldn't be able to differentiate your playing from Allen's. Superb my friend. Absolutely Killer!

[@craigmatthews3497]

That's what I csll laying 'er down!

[@5T3V3]

Holy shit, you nailed that! Great work!

[@mikereynolds3294]

That Firebird sounds great

[@mikemackenziemusic]

Thanks so much!

[@jmwise80]

You have managed to capture THAT tone on one guitar.

[@Tominscv]

You fucking ROCK! THANK-YOU for helping keep the band and their music alive! And for an honest video title. Again, you ROCK!

[@zippy61]

Stripped away no filler and absolutely killer man!!!

[@yrulooknatme]

[@Nick-xh6of]

Master class stuff. Bravo!

[@Nick-xh6of]

I’ll take the rhythm work off your hands my man and a solo or two on this legendary song.

[@DazReht]

Gaines, Rossington, and Collins would be proud 🤘🏼

[@SeanGuerrero-i6o]

Good job mike on point 🤘

[@rainergimenez4022]

Very cool.

[@Vinylfiend60]

Awesome it gave me chills. So amazingly good 👍

[@evilxmetalband6532]

You crushed this,somehow you got the perfect guitar tone!Even using a firebird like Allen Collins.Rossington and Collins were the most underrated guitar players of all time.Nobody ever mentions them.Listen to those live performances especially after Steve got there.

[@henrygoleau]

Excellent!

[@Ireland831]

I have just found you. Easily the best re-creations of classic songs. You sir....are the best.

[@rodbertolino]

Very nice, man! A real Lynyrd 70's cover. Congratulations!

[@leighhauck8806]

This is so good man. There needs to be more videos like this, especially for skynyrd. It’s so hard to find a way to play their songs well with just one guitar. I would love to see how you handle Needle and the Spoon without a backing track, and great tone by the way too!

[@leighhauck8806]

From a fellow Calgarian!

[@mikemackenziemusic]

Thanks man! Needle is another fave, often play it live and will post a full version sometime

[@leighhauck8806]

@@mikemackenziemusic I'm coming to see you guys at South Block on July 14, hope you can fit it in the set!

[@robbiesandor1028]

What amp did you plug into for this video? Cus that is the distortion sound I’ve been chasing

[@mikemackenziemusic]

@@robbiesandor1028 Orange Rockerverb and Vox AC15 blended, the Orange is a real workhorse I use for most of my stuff

[@robbiesandor1028]

Thanks! I’ll check em out! I appreciate you getting back to me, I love your playing and it would be cool to to talk to ya more often. Rock on brother 🤘🎸

[@CarlosGarcia-wu3nl]

It’s Gary

[@Stratsrule]

Allen collins was savage

[@silverstone3228]

Yes please, don't use backing tracks This sounds way better

[@Tominscv]

Man... No shit! So many vids have misleading titles- 'isolated track' or 'by LS', then some dufus wannabe barely able to play... Anyway, 👍👍
