LYNYRD SKYNYRD THE BALLAD OF CURTIS LEOW REACTION 😎

[@danieldavis9832]

You don’t just listen to Skynyrd. You feel them in your soul.

[@deecampbell3890]

I love this song! How a 10 year old boy was able to see value in a person, when no one else did. Reminder to always look for the good! I’m was born & raised in GA.

[@timgard7091]

Poor white boys, Jacksonville fla, soda bottles, love ya Ronnie ❤

[@CrackerAL]

They always sang the truth to us

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

Skynyrd just doesn’t have a bad song. They are phenomenal.

[@LordEagle]

Nice user name,,,🤪

[@Tuesdays_Gone]

@@LordEagle thank you. You can guess that I’m a huge Skynyrd fan, just from my user name. 🥰🎶🥰

[@joeyricefried9621]

Agreed. Imagine how many more they could’ve made. RVZ was the heartbeat, imo.

[@jesselewis5699]

Took me about 20 years to learn that.

[@laurahalter3460]

Jacksonville standing loud and proud of our boys!

[@jesselewis5699]

Definitely one of the greatest song writers of all time. His words and lyrics are actually parables and very deep moral lessons.

[@ronaldgoodrich5460]

One of the most talented musical families ever.

[@joeyricefried9621]

The Greatest Band in American History. Imo

[@ronnieb3373]

Damn straight

[@octaviusalexandr3899]

One of my frined one of the best for sure.

[@Freshenstein23]

This gives me goosebumps every time I hear it! What a story about the roots of learning music. This is the best

[@elainekeane4164]

Love the songs that tell a story! 🎤🎸❤️

[@dbloughtbuckprep]

i saw them june 16th 1977 at nassau coliseum live...a little over 4 months later they were gone...a few survived the plane crash..ronnie came out with no shoes and planted his feet and didnt move..one of the best front men ive ever seen..im 64 years old and since then i have not even seen a tribute band not even his brother who looks just like him but in my eyes it would be a step backwards...once you reach the pinnacle you stay put and keep it in your heart...next do the ballad of curtis lowe...you should see the documentary on cable

[@garyparris1713]

We did collect soda bottles in the 7o,s,we got ten cents a bottle and that was a gold mine for us. Also there were still real blues players around, we where so blessed to be alive at that time, Thank God. White boy from North St.louis. Lord have mercy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@godisgreatjesusislord2278]

I've from Pearson Florida just south of Green Cove Springs where Lynyrd Skynyrd from, that's a true story about Curtis Loew the lead singer used to go see him as a kid and that's where he got his style from

[@alanpeterson4939]

It is not a real story about a specific man. It is a real story about the music and musicians who influenced and inspired them growing up in the South.

[@jbrown1971]

It is real story about black guy at local store where Ronnie growed up.

[@jeffbolton9699]

Actually the main inspiration for this song was Rickey Medlockes grandpa. In the beginning Ronnie and the boys would go to pick up Rickey to practice, Shorty Medlocke would be sitting on the porch playing. So that was the initial inspiration and they decided to incorporate all the different influences they had.

[@SleepyJoesDiaper]

The person who collected soda bottles was Gene Odom. This was his favorite song bc Ronnie alluded to him in it.

[@thomasfiscus7321]

great song from Lynyrd Skynyrd ......Love it

[@michaelarrowood4315]

A classic of Southern blues-rock. Loved this song the first time I heard it 50 years ago. I had NO IDEA what the blues was... Lynyrd Skynyrd was actually my gateway drug to the blues tradition. Learned so much from this... and just carried on into my love of the blues. Curtis Loew is probably semi-fictional... but RIP, Mr. Curtis, you touched a lot of hearts.

[@tighe2424]

Curtis loew was based on Rickey Medlockes grandfather

[@walterlangley9793]

This song resonates with me because when I was young there was an old black man living in his shack. He would let me come by and get a soda bottle so that I can take it down and get money for them. It changed me that I don't remember his name but he was a great man and he's always kind to us. And my mama never whupped us for going to see him

[@ianwatkins-hx9zm]

The original boys of Lynyrd Skynyrd were all born and raised in Jacksonville and grew up rough. Crazy story really.

[@michaelhoffman4542]

Good music is good music!

[@dannylooney7348]

he didn’t say store. he said Sto’. lmao. the Kuntchree Sto! 😂😂. I like watching folks react to this song. It was a part of my childhood. The song. the corner store. the country store. music. etc.

[@krw73]

Ironically as a white guy growing up in New York in the 80s, I also saved up my money to buy records that inspired me from a rapper named Kurtis Blow.

[@mage1439]

Hehe.

[@TheColdrush22]

Love this song and also LOVE LOVE LOVE Kurtis Blow. Abso legends.

[@darrennance9412]

Haha. Saw Kurtis Blow open up for The Clash in Detroit. He was awesome!

My favorite part is Aretha Franklin working on I never loved a man,then she took the back up band on the road.🇨🇦💖

[@michaelcamp5513]

@@madmann5373 Yes. That group of guys had something magical for the time. Combine that with Areththa's amazing voice and it was hard to beat. I liked seeing Percy Sledge ... when he sings... you feel what he feels.

Love it, baby😃

[@meanmax9663]

This is the music of my youth, and you youngsters might not connect with all the references in the song. Collecting up soda bottles and taking them down to the country store was a way us kids used to get money. The glass bottles had a nickel or dime deposit paid on them at the time of purchase, and discarded bottles could be gathered up and exchanged for cash at the store.

[@danielcrain12]

Hey y’all don’t forget if not for the black folk blues there would be no rock❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@cutbaitkenny]

Do the song Simple Man by them please.
