Lynyrd Skynyrd; I Know a Little

LIVE! Puistoblues 1996, Järvenpää, Finland.

[@zzipdrive]

Tragic plane crash. Loved Skynyrd since I heard "pronounced" back around 1974. This band with Johnny kicks butt! Keep it goin' guys!

[@josephpowelliii9169]

Nobody in the world could play the keyboard better than the late Billy Powell! There will never be another great band like Skynyrd....never.

[@joleneloveland4602]

I know, right? Just not the same..never will be. One good thing they accomplished was to keep the name of Skynyrd alive and In the minds of the upcoming generations. The current band presents a testament as witnesses of the true legends.

I'm a big Deep Purple fan, so there's that Jon Lord thing, but I have to admit that I was absolutely floored at Billy's piano work when I saw them back in '86. Just amazing.

[@ianh1263]

Johnny Van Zant is the only vocalist that fits the bill here. There's a real likeness between he and the great, late legend Ronnie Van Zant. All the guys playing above are superb. They still have that triple guitar heat and a great rhythm sound. Gary Rossington wouldn't allow any bum to play with them. The plane crash was so sad because they had just released Street Survivors album three days prior. I firmly believe that album would have catapulted Skynyrd right into the very big time. Thoughts to those gone but the music continues to boogie.

[@nordicpride9708]

When Ronnie died that was it for the original band. Love the old stuff. Not a fan of the new

[@jeffdoyle4703]

I agree. You just can't re create the first band. Ronnie was LS....

[@PJsoutdoors]

I agree also. It just doesn't sound the same

[@smittyinwootown5640]

Where’s Artimus Pyle ?!

[@PJsoutdoors]

Artimus Pyle good kicked out of the band years ago because him and Gary Rossington didn't get along

[@smittyinwootown5640]

@@PJsoutdoors I’m aware of that. I thought it was wrong that they wouldn’t let Him play. They supposedly had that “ rule of 3 “ where they need 3 Members of The real Skynyrd in the band in order to move on. Although Artimus was technically not a total original member , He was an upstanding member in the Band when the Plane went down ending the Real Lynyrd Skynyrd. If that’s the case , why was He inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame as a Member of Lynyrd Skynyrd ? 🤔

[@sfeigh]

Aside from the music, I always got a kick out of Leons hats. Looking at this, I'm presuming this was recorded shortly after Ed left in 1996 due to heart problems.

The list of original members are = Ronnie Van Zant, Alan Collins, Gary Rossington, Artemis pile, Billy Powell, Ed King, Leon Wilkinson, Steve Gaines towards the end.

[@jaxflfreebird]

I wonder if Rickey ever called Johnny or someone in the band to let them know he needed a "JAY OH BEE" JOB, before Ed King left the band. Sure, Rickey looks the part of the bad ass guitar player and the band needed BALLS, but Ed King was the better player and fit for the band. If Rickey had stayed in Skynyrd they would have never made it to the big time. Rickey's guitar playing wasn't the style or tone that Skynyrd needed.
