Street Survivors Expanded
Description
The recording of the original Skynyrd’s last LP was quite
a saga, with sessions in Miami and Doraville and several songs re-recorded or
dropped. This reissue finally unites these tracks with the album they were
meant for: The Miami versions of I Never Dreamed and You Got That Right ; the
scrapped songs Sweet Little Missy and Georgia Peaches ; the autobiographical
Jacksonville Kid, plus the hit What’s Your Name and the rest of the original
LP! Lynyrd Skynyrd had already fulfilled a good deal of its promise
on definitive Southern-rock albums such as Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd and
the live One More From the Road when they stepped up their ambition a few more
notches for this October 1977 release. Fueled by new member Steve Gaines, the
Florida band produced its best album. Gaines, Gary Rossington, and Allen
Collins interlocked on guitars as if they’d learned it all in the womb
together, while singer Ronnie Van Zant came up with his most evocative lyrics
yet. The shadow of death he detected on “That Smell” was closer than perhaps
even he thought, however: three days after the record’s appearance in stores,
he was killed along with five others in a Mississippi crash of the group’s
tour plane. Street Survivors remains as a classic of American guitar rock.
