"Old preacher said some words and they chucked him in the clay." In other words, they buried him and walked away without giving it a second thought.

[@shirleybuffington6420]

Dear this is Southern Rock and that is a mixture of rock, country, funk, blues , jazz and a little bluegrass .

[@tinamines431]

The line was ... on the day that Curtis died, nobody came to pray. Old preacher man said some words, and they chucked him in the clay. They came of what is now Orange Park Florida ( not Jacksonville as most think). The road sign for brick yard road was stolen so much that they encased it in concrete. Call me the breeze is another great song.

[@MugnifyRTS]

I did that one already

[@robbierobinson3966]

Might not be correct grammar but down south it's CHUNKED. I just looked up the lyrics and that's what it says. Same thing I've been singing for 50 years when i sing along to one of my favorite Skynyrd tunes.

[@kurtsaxton823]

It's the same county the largest county in the country, that's why Jacksonville claims them because they're the largest big city near where are they started. They started covering Allman Brothers tunes, until they met the Allman Brothers which inform them that they need to make their own music.

[@Booderman]

@@kurtsaxton823not the same county! O.P. Is in Clay county NOT Duval.

[@Booderman]

@@MugnifyRTS”Mr.Banker” & “ Four walls of Raiford “ are a couple of their best blues rock sound. “ I know a little “ is a great upbeat tune similar to “ Mr.Breeze “ that you enjoyed. Thx!

[@brandonjones1349]

There is no bad Skynard . Try On the Hunt, Cry for the Bad Man or Comin Home bruh. Keep up the journey. They rock live too. Love the channel Mug ☘️🇺🇲

[@Joe-d3t1t]

RVZ is one of the best Front Men EVER. Skynyrd was never the same when that plane went down.

[@paulettelamontagne6992]

I used to hang out with Anthony I can't believe that this guy's voice even brought Anthony Kiedis to mind

[@grahamokeefe9406]

I can kinda hear it. Kinda. Ronnie has more blues in his sound, but the basic tone is kinda similar.

[@jtrutt3]

Nope

[@mamaflush9945]

​@jtrutt3 agreed...RHCP's were from California and, one of the pioneers of punk rock, rap rock. Lynyrd Skynyrd was from Florida and one of the pioneers of southern rock...straight from the Delta. There's no comparison (IMO)

[@sidviscous5959]

Listen to the chorus of "Soul to Squeeze" and then do the same with this song. The accents are way different, but there is a similarity in tone. Kiedis's voice is deeper, and Van Zant's has more twang.

[@jack-of-all-trades1234]

I could hear the connection.

[@JohnGirardeau-v6t]

Also might add. In the lyrics preacher man chucked in the clay. I'm from Savannah. Just above Jacksonville, FL. Red clay all down. Preach chuck aka toss in the grave of Curtis Lowe. Skynyrd was I first concert ever in Savannah. That was in '77. I was 17

[@sirmister4411]

On the hunt From skynyrd is a great underrated song

[@berinmind]

Great song

[@ChanelStuff]

I have to admit. Amongst all their catalogue, this is my favorite track from LS Thanks Mugs❤

[@HenryHaven-c3q]

Pistols in my Pockets is a great tune as well 😊

[@petestottsberry1133]

I was 14 years old when I heard this song for the first time. I had started playing bass guitar when I was 10… this song shaped and formed my groove and musical feel the first time I heard it. Thanks for reacting to it. Opened the memory floodgates for sure!! 😎

[@neillenet291]

LOVE Lynyrd Skynyrd! First concert I ever went to, 1976.

[@BobbiTaylor624]

They say it was something in the Tennessee River. They had a house that would live at called the HELL house. Then Ronnie took them to the Muscles Shoal recording studio.....history. There is a documentary on Lynard Skynyrd and one titled Muscle Shoals

[@maine420grow8]

I'm glad you understand the chronology

[@HoodLizard88]

Mug, if you ever get around to a full album reaction of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers " Blood Sugar Sex Magik," well, that days gonna be a party, youll love it!🤘🥳

[@charlesmarkley220]

Call Me the Breeze. Unbelievably great song. One of the best songs ever. Yes a Skynard song has horns. A must react. 😊

[@USMILNET]

Gotta do some Allmans too. Allmans and Skynrd are probably the two most iconic.

[@deannacrownover3]

The Breeze is my favorite song by Skynyrd! ( I'm a Florida girl through and through and we love our Florida bands!)

[@alistaircrowley9442]

Call it anything you want. It was and is great music. Thanks

[@jona.874]

The lyric was "Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay Well he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues And on the day he lost his life that's all he had to lose

[@ojstinson]

"Ol' preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay"

[@judymusselman567]

Check out Mississippi Kid while your on a skynyrd kick. It's one of those leg slappin fun songs

[@robbierobinson3966]

That's a great tune

@@kjsky4244 ain't looking for no trouble but nobody dogs me around. Lol sorry couldn't resist 🤣. Love this song

Crazy. I never put that together. In that opening, he sounded exactly like Anthony Kiedis. Good ear man

[@paulettelamontagne6992]

I can't find the link to request songs can I just cash app my requests now I really want you to hear Sir Psycho Sexy by the Chili Peppers it's funky and he's rapping in my opinion he's rapping

[@MugnifyRTS]

It’s in the description of the video under Support

I think he says They chucked Curtis in the clay

[@MugnifyRTS]

It sounded like Jumped lol

The song is under the bridge

[@lightningbug276]

Great song 😭

[@PorchHonkey]

Second Helping was the first thing I bought after cashing my very first paycheck back in the day. Second stop was my buddy's house,. Where I popped my new Skynyrd tape into his tape deck. Figured I'd check it out quick. While he weighed out a nickel bag of red haired sinsi . Which turned out to be, my second purchase. After cashing my very first paycheck.

[@victorjohnson7512]

Rock music was borne from soul, rhythm & blues, country, bluegrass, and jazz. The one spot on the map where all those things came together in the 1950's was Memphis TN. 20 years later you can hear all those influences in bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd

[@tomsawyer6324]

Check out The Breeze. On The Hunt.,Gimme Back My Bullets. ✌

[@robertbradley6865]

This is a great story along with Tuesday gone and Simple man (Country Rock) good vid and choice

[@walterfleury3840]

Giving Curt some respect.

[@tinakeith5822]

He dropped him in the clay

[@ChanelStuff]

It's "chucked" him in the clay. Basically they just threw him in and covered him

[@stephenfurkay6378]

Curtis Loew was a Black man. This was in the lyrics but you were talking over the song

[@charlesdavis7461]

Other people judging a person they don't know.

[@rickthoma6428]

More LS please!

[@riknroll5150]

He said "chucked him in the clay"

[@amyfarley2305]

"The preacher said some words and they chunked him in the clay" they chunked Curtis Loew in the clay (they buried him quick...disrespectfully) This song is purportedly based off of the writers true experience. One of my all time favorites by them.

[@moniquesewell2670]

It's Southern Rock with blues influence. Most Southern Rock has blues roots

[@Dark_Walker_]

Chunking somebody in the clay is burying a beggar without funds or family in the county burial plot. The pauper's grave is usually unmarked and often there isn't even a coffin. A sad legacy for a life lived.

[@williameller7002]

It said the preacher said some words an they chunked him in the clay

[@srt8rocketship241]

Said some words then chunked him in the clay. I hear him sayin' , Black face blues also.

[@lancerx1759]

Good ears to catch some Psychedelic influence cause Legendary Skynyrd guitarist Ed King playing on this was prior the guitarist for the 60s Psychedelic rock band "Strawberry Alarm Clock"

[@digittbr1688]

They're saying that Curtis got chunked in the clay. You know put in they ground dead.

[@jay-remedy-plz]

Skynyrd - “On The Hunt” That same song was also covered by bands The Obsessed and Corrosion Of Conformity.

[@AprilCowan-u2y]

70s Southern Rock

[@paulettelamontagne6992]

Anthony Kiedis his father was an actor in La I forget on what sitcom he appeared in as a kid. I know he likes some band called flash something and and Grand Funk I can't remember I knew him when he was really bad on that heroin

[@DystOptimist]

If you ask most folks who was the best SOUTHERN ROCK BAND, you will hear two names: The Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Both recorded and made in Muscle Shoals, AL. I put the Allmans at number 1, but I can't argue with anyone that puts Skynyrd first. And I tap my hat to both.

[@ronbrowning4845]

Anthony Kiedis was just a pimple on RVS's hind end!! Know that Frfr!! And yes, I love RHCP!! But that comparison is just a distant comparison. 🤷

[@Joe-d3t1t]

If you think Skynyrd sounds psychedelic, listen to the Allman Bros. Skynyrd, Allman Bros, Marshall Tucker. Peak of Southern Rock

[@Mallykins]

I, too, got whooped.. Anyway, there really isn’t any bad songs by them. Growing up in the 90’s we considered it Southern Rock and sometimes, Outlaw Country.

[@AnotherRound2017]

Just for fun… listen to. “ Lynard Skynard Jones•… by Eric Church.. it is a fun continuation to this.. and he is a bad ass by himself

[@jamessmith-pf5zf]

OG Southern Rock was influenced by the Blues, Country Music, Gospel, and even Dixieland/Ragtime.

[@cadymauro5792]

Ronnie Van Zant didnt sound like nobody but himself. Red hot chili peppers lead singer seriously dude? BOO!

[@EarthWalker2023]

🔥

[@randistewart7510]

That's why it's called Southern Rock, mix of country, blues, and rock n roll. ❤

[@moniquesewell2670]

I would have been that kid collecting bottles to hear Curtis play, but my mom wouldn't have spanked me. I was raised on blues, southern rock, etc

[@karenwalsh1143]

"Chucked him in the clay" is what the lyrics were! "THAT SMELL" is a good one from LS but listen carefully alot of people get the meaning wrong.

[@gk5891]

If they played it in the South it's in Southern Rock. From Jazz to Bluegrass.

[@JoeSmith-ey2xp]

I have never heard anyone compare RHCP with Lynyrd Skynyrd before, in fact I can't think of two bands more dissimilar.

[@51502]

You really really should check out the songs. Am I losing, I need you, was I right or Wrong by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Do yourself a favor oh yeah and Four Walls of Raiford is great too

[@lloydanderson1486]

Southern Rock

[@PhilLewis-e7m]

Appreciate you dig this tune, but RCP does hold a candle to skynyrd

[@HiddenCharmhome]

At the very beginning, he said Curtis was a black man with white curly hair. Then later the preacher said some words then chucked him in the clay

[@leonardwashington6456]

I've never in my life listened to Ronnie Van Zant and thought anything about Anthony Kiedis.

[@randyjohnson6960]

You should use lyrics version "Said some words then chunked him into clay"

[@VIDSTORAGE]

Chunked him in the clay.....Whisky Rock a Roller is a good one ..

[@grahamokeefe9406]

This was the song that really hooked me on Skynyrd. Teenage me heard this and thought, "Oh, ok, these guys are serious"

[@sidviscous5959]

I never thought about how he sounds like Anthony Kiedes. You got a point.

[@TexasMagnolia]

LS deserves to be a priority! And, It’s Southern Rock!!!! I’m sorry, this is the worst reaction I’ve seen. Chili Pepper? Talked/laughed over “On the day Curtis died, nobody came to pray”.

[@MugnifyRTS]

Texas, I can’t help if his voice reminded me of Chili Peppers it just does and your entitled to your opinion about this being the “Worst Reaction”

[@stevesauck7001]

Skynyrd’s the best. I saw them when I was 15 years old in 1976. I’m 63 now, still jam Skynyrd a lot.

[@charliemac64]

Everybody's sayin' they "chunked" him in the clay. It's "CHUCKED." To chuck something is to throw it, particularly throwing something away. They threw him in the clay, i.e. buried him without fanfare. Sincerely, a Chuck

[@robbierobinson3966]

Sounds like chunked to me. That's what we always said down in Alabama. I just looked up the lyrics and it's Chunked.

[@melanieheathbeasley133]

Listened to Lynyrd and RHCP for years and never picked up on the cadence similarities until you mentioned that

[@Melanie-AlwaysJustMe]

Enjoyed Mugs! 🔥💜 this one is a huge fave! I hope you go back and listen to some of these songs again when you are chilling to some music, this is one of many that i enjoy listening to often.
