The Ballad of Curtis Lowe - (Acoustic Cover) *4k* Gretsch Resonator

[@martinmalek4567]

Nice job!! It's great to see Skynyrd music is still appreciated today. Keep up the good work, Snoot Booper!!

[@oliveranthonymusic]

This made my day. What else from Skynyrd can I play you? We have a lead guitarist and drummer now. :)

[@martinmalek4567]

@@oliveranthonymusic I think "All I Can Do Is Write About It" would sound great by you. There's no lead or drums, but it's pure Skynyrd. If you'd rather rock the blues, (I Got The) Same Old Blues would be awesome. Either one would be great. Thanks, and Rock On!!

If you know the right people how about getting a show on Memorial/Veterans Day with Steve Earle's RICH MAN'S WAR, IRA HAYES, and All the other songs that cut the BS about the people who do the dying and bleeding in war?

Damn !!!! This boy can sing an make you feel every word he sings !❤

[@deborahlauterbach6156]

Agreed. A gift for mankind. The right man at the right time.

[@benwade7151]

Couldn’t comment on Rich men from Richmond heard it a couple of days ago which led me to the rest of your music. It’s not often I find a singer songwriter that hits home and touches my heart and soul but brother you damn sure do it. I’m happy for you man! Hope that smile never leaves your face!

[@rrrttt1112]

He reminds me of RVZ!

[@Hamletaco]

Curtis Low was the finest picker to ever play the blues!!!

[@justincoode4525]

Im 25 and believe you are my generations johnny cash. My peers forget about true soul music and finally i have found it in you. Thank you for the music and cant wait to see how you progress. Keep being you and spread the word to the world. Thank you

[@randyfirst5747]

Ol Curtis Lowe, that melted my heart♥️ one of my all time favs! Bravo 🇺🇸

[@nftfisherman9863]

As an old southern musician, I've heard multitudes of people sing Lynyrd Skynyrd covers. But I think today I heard Ronnie again for the first time. Bravo Chris

[@SheilaCrabtree-e7u]

Nobody can sing them like Oliver Anthony can

[@timmcquerry6068]

That Sir is a complement of the HIGHEST ORDER 👏

[@PaulLuse]

That's the best Skynard cove EVER💯

[@CrimsonTide923]

Amazing rendition of this ballad. You and that guitar are making history as I type this comment

[@southwestsider9254]

yesirrrr thats right.

[@SCLARK2112]

This is the man that put Farmville, VA on the map, another great job, Chris!

[@kellyskountrykitchen6285]

My fav Leonard Skynard song. First time I heard it I thought, 'That guy lived that story'. It was so real. So much soul in that song.. Love it! Great cover job❤

[@thelittletrujillo7932]

If I dated a guy w a voice like this I’d have him sing everything , pass the pepper, turn up the tv just everything 😊 amazing voice , awesome songs

[@olderbutfitter-dl6hk]

That’s exactly right!😊

[@esterwyman]

ABSOLUTELY 👍

[@drloki1969]

The Ballard of Curtis Lowe has always been my favorite LS song. Sir, you not only did the song justice, you gave it soul and brought a tear to my eyes. Thank you!

[@marklyon6344]

Awesome song, Chris. I can relate. Been pickin' geetar for 56 yrs and when I was ten, I'd listen to this guy around the corner from me play song after song. Had no money to pay him so I'd babysit his kids just so I could listen. You got the goods, brother & you ain't even begun to get old yet. You set sail on your adventure a year ago and your ship came in two weeks ago. So keep on writtin'... Keep on expressin' yourself. We're all here with ya', on this magnificent ride-along. Semper Fi😎👍

[@Dan-gi7yz]

Grew up racing down gravel roads listening to that song ) To the good life. Slowing down is not an option

[@nunyabizanyway4370]

Love that he plays outside. Natures music in the background adds so much!

[@juliagregory192]

Skynyard, you did this song proud. It needed the kind of passion in the music, that you played. If you get a chance, it would be nice to hear Simple Man or That Smell. Rich Men North of Rochmond kinda has a CCR feel to it. I love your musical style. I am a follower for sure. I have added seeing you play in person to a very short list of things I want to do. Hope to see you play live. Thank you for all of your music and may God continue to bless you!

[@keimahane]

Such a nice rendition, I could feel the love and respect you have for this wonderful Skynyrd tune.

[@lansteadla]

One of my all time FAVORITE songs ever!! ❤️ THE BEST!

[@travis-nk8wf]

Thank you. my father's favorite band was skynard I got to see them with my old man before he died. Brings a tear to my eye

[@deborahlauterbach6156]

Amazing sound. Feeling way down deep. Keep on singing. The world needs this guy. God Bless him.

[@mikemcbride2468]

You're not just singing a song. You're telling a story that could have come out of the Mississippi Delta. You've covered this well! I'm a fan. So glad we "got to know" you! Continued success!

Now it all makes sense.

[@yungbambinomusic]

Yesss Chris I needed to hear this. You really remind me of Ronnie Van Zant so much 🔥🙏🏻

[@julesdecember4164]

Binging..... It's nice to hear someone play and sing so wonderfully.

[@anniewilliford7915]

Lynyrd Skynyrd! My favorite song by them is, " All I Can Do Is Write About It In A Song". Fun fact: That song was recorded weeks before the fatal plane crash. The verse " Cause when I can see the concrete slowly creepin, Lord take me and mine before that comes" gives me chills every time. ❤ Doubt you'll see, but if you do, check out "Woman of Mine". Great tune

[@b12809]

Almost true, but the song was released in 1974

[@anniewilliford7915]

Wow, really? I got that information from an autobiography about the band.

[@Salparadise808]

This is fantastic. This is the music that will renovate us as a people.

[@thadvuagniaux5812]

Wow…Absolutely Great rendition! Thank YOU SIR!

[@jamesbroderick9106]

There's 100 people like this in the country. Not taking anything from you Chris. But nobody appreciates it unless it's on the radio I guess. Thank you for the little piece of your soul you've given us all

I remember being at my good friends house at 3:00 in the morning listening to this song very loud on his stereo, I said don't you think it might be a little loud for the neighbors, he opened all the windows and said , my bad I didn't realize they want to hear it , too ! Rest In Peace, Rip Vanwinkle you were one of a kind , I surely miss you, my good friend! I hope they have Lynard Skynard in Heaven
