Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme Three Steps (Live At Knebworth '76)

Order "Live At Knebworth '76": mercury-studio...
On August 21, 1976, Lynyrd Skynyrd took the stage at Knebworth as part of a daylong festival which also included Todd Rundgren’s Utopia, 10cc and The Rolling Stones. The show has gone down in Lynyrd Skynyrd history as one of the band’s greatest performances. The 1976 Knebworth show features Ronnie Van Zant’s iconic vocals and their famed triple guitar attack of Gary Rossington, Allen Collins and Steve Gaines in front of a crowd estimated between 150,000 and 200,000. Their entire performance from that day is here for you to witness the classic Lynyrd Skynyrd in all its glory with cleaned up visuals and remixed audio, available on DVD+CD, Blu-ray+CD and DVD+2LP.

[@qeimapa]

​@@DonnyHooterHoot Absolutely not. Both of the ZZ guitarists had real class, but Skynyrd had the greatest drummer. Dusty and Billy were excellent musicians. ZZ's live performances were lightning fast, and their early music was free of musical cliches. There was no competition when they were at their best, and ZZ was superior on the XXX tour in the late 1990s. Maybe Skynyrd is now superior to ZZ.

[@jimiplayscobo5877]

I seen Skynyrd 4 times. First time was when they backed up the Who's Quadrophenia tour in 73 I don't think many people even knew who Skynyrd was. IMO they blew the Who off the stage. I wish I'd got to see the Steve Gaines era :-) Peace

[@UncleByeBye1965]

The Steve Gaines era wasn't very long. Just a little over a year. He had an album of his own before joining Skynyrd. I have it incorporated into my Lynyrd Sknyrd playlist on my channel.

[@maryreilly5092]

Yes, it's true but Ronnie was also scrutinizing every bandmates performance in every possible way and detail. if they failed in the slightest...that bandmate would get an earful from Ronnie after the show...FO SHOW! Ronnie was a perfectionist and even insisted they bow to the audience at the end of their performance. The politeness and extreme respect to the audience was not only a very old school homage but also a tribute to their parents' Southern upbringing. There was no just walking off the stage with a little wave at the end of the show...No Suh! They understood exactly what their fame brought to their lives and didn't take their fans or audience members for granted. Another reason, of many, to just love this band from my hometown of Jacksonville, Florida.

This is what is called REAL Music, Boys and Girls!!!! Learn it!!

[@owensweetland342]

We'll NEVER see the likes of this music again. So glad I was a teen in the 1970s. Purchased the live 8-track while in boot at Lackland. Lol😅😂 8-tracks.

Skynyrd ain't Skynyrd without Ronnie 😢

[@karlcherry]

Damn right! And the absolute shit show that they became. Nothing but a tribute band... It took 12 musicians, not counting the "Honkettes" to recreate what the original band did.

[@Sandra-c5g5m]

THEY DID PRETTY DAM GOOD AS REPLACING ORIGINAL LEONARD!

[@bobstone8667]

Thier live performances were spot on with the recorded sessions, they difently were one of the best Rock groups to ever take a stage!

[@zachlagrange4999]

Damn they sure did totally outdid the stones that day! 😮

[@marisawoods]

The amount of raw talent on that stage is unreal. Gone way too soon!

[@normajeanmorrissey4459]

My favorite Lenard Skynard song!

[@BST-lm4po]

How fortunate we are that this performance was captured on video! And the sound system and video coverage was fantastic!

[@mastergregmishkin5088]

My absolute favorite Ronnie song ever. "Show me the back door!"

[@Robert-io8zy]

Never heard a band play better, live!

[@cyndicombs1419]

First dance I ever had was with my dad to this song. I was 3 and was standing on his feet while he cut a rug. We danced to it every time we heard it through the years but my favorite was when we danced to it as our father daughter dance at my wedding in 1994. Best memories of my life right there. ❤

[@deanlawson890]

A band with 3 lead guitar players that could take a lead at any time. They are Bad Ass !

[@bradfauth3657]

He also wrote this song.

[@BST-lm4po]

Actually, when you think about it, every single musician was fantastic! Leon Wilkeson is one of my favorite Bass players of all time. Billy Powell is arguably the best piano player in Rock. Artimus is a kick ass drummer! Every single musician on that stage is top notch!

[@jj-nh8lz]

@@BST-lm4po absolutely! The backstory is also pretty amazing with the core group of guys from the same Jacksonville high school and Billy Powell was a roadie! Amazing what brilliant musicians these guys were. It was like Ronnie said, they were truly street survivors

[@christimecarmona6810]

[@tigrrtom]

In my humble opinion Gary was the heart and soul of the band. Just like the album title he was Nuthin' Fancy to watch on stage - he just played. But boy, howdy, did he play! As they say he was as smooooooth as buttermilk! Rest well gentlemen, you'll never be forgotten.

its coming up to 41 years since we lost ronnie, steve and cassie, one of the darkest days in music history but skynyrd will be played till the end of time.

[@TheBrooklynbodine]

Posting 1-14-22. Actually it was 44 years last October 20. Before you know it, the half-century mark of their deaths will be here.

[@charlesyoung2197]

Sad day indeed.I always felt so bad for their families and especially Steve and Cassie parents losing 2 children at once.So so sad.

I wish I could of seen these guys before the plane crash! THEY ARE SPECTACULAR!!! Ronnie's voice is just totally amazing! The whole band is just SPECTACULAR!

[@vupshon]

I cant stop watching these videos of Knebworth August 21st 1976. I was there, I lived in Stevenage, i was there with my mates who i cant find. Are any of them still alive, i dont know, i have tried tracing them, but to no avail. i miss them, i would love to find them. Those were the days. Yes i took drugs, we all did, we had a drink, we all did. I miss it all, but hey, im 67 now, not long to go i guess. Would love to see at least one of my old pals before i depart this world. Lynyrd skynyrd, awsome, they brought the day alive, they awakened the crowd, we all thought at the time, yes, come on ,lets go. Shame some of the band were to depart this life a year later.

[@sharonmullins1957]

[@damariscastillo6509]

Have you tried google search or face book to find them?

[@deantharrington278]

The original Lynyrd Skynyrd band was incredibly talented. They had something that is hard to describe or duplicate.

[@terryromero5191]

The definition of Southern Rock!!!!

[@JeffreyKB]

I was 14 years old and out on my first ever Saturday night. 2 high school senior girls invited me to go out with them and we were cruising through town when a Jeep pulled up alongside us with this song blasting through 3 ft tall house speakers they had wired in the back. My life changed that night. I fell in love with rock and roll.

Alot of bad ass music in the 70's , this is just one of the bad ass bands .😊

[@jonstensaas9077]

I will be the best thing to Lynyrd Skynyrd till the day I die they've always been one of the greatest rock bands that ever existed. Not the best because there's so many that are just as good then I don't agree when people try to say who is the best guitarist and all this stuff like that I think it's this song here for one of the guys is playing how to play a very famous guitar I can't remember the name of that now but I'm from the Upper Peninsula Michigan grew up on the south shore of Lake Superior where the Edmund Fitzgerald sank that was another great song I've said it before and I'll say it again it didn't matter if you're from the far north like me to Far West the East Coast or the Southern States like Lynyrd Skynyrd live singing about everybody I knew in party with couldn't get enough of them one of the greatest bands ever exist if anyone can think of the name of that guitar if you feel like it you might want to reply I seen Lynyrd Skynyrd after the crash three times one side the West Palm Beach Fairgrounds and twice at the at the SunFest Festival in Downtown West Palm Beach they weren't bad that's the last time I went to that that Festival saw Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top and George Thorogood I went to the very first song fast it was free and that was the last one I went through to see those three bands. It cost about 30 bucks then it was well worth it but they pretty much turned into a fenced-in area where the people were herded like cattle and all the drinks were way over price in the beginning it was just supposed to be for the local bands that could show their talent. I guess that was happens when money comes into the situation
