Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd
Description
Not only does this remastered reissue of Skynyrd’s 1973
debut sound better than ever-it’s also expanded to include five demos, three
of ’em unreleased! So you get Free Bird; Gimme Three Steps; Simple Man, and
the rest of the original LP plus demos of Mr. Banker; Down South Jukin’;
Tuesday’s Gone; Gimme Three Steps, and an incredible 11-minutes-plus version
of Free Bird ! Where the Allman Brothers and Marshall Tucker had a
more restrained, accomplished rock sound, Florida’s Lynyrd Skynyrd took
another approach, evoking images of whiskey, Confederate flags, hard luck, and
greasy dive bars in their music. The like-minded Molly Hatchet and .38 Special
couldn’t come close to matching the lyrical talent and natural-born rock-and-
boogie abilities of Skynyrd. And, of course, no other band can lay claim to
the most-requested song in the history of rock music, the anthemic “Free
Bird,” the focal point of this, their 1973 debut. Aside from spawning
countless tomes of bad poetry by pockmarked 15-year-olds everywhere with “Free
Bird,” they demonstrated a mastery of the rock ballad with the time-tested
“Tuesday’s Gone,” another highlight of this notable first offering. –Lorry
