Editorial Review: Product Description: \N Amazon.com: 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 Fleming Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Gimme 3 stepsOk maybe not 3 steps but maybe 3 lines to write a review. THis is like an early Greatest hits album because it is so good. I wish I could have seen the original band together. But this album has lived on for many years after their passing. I think it is well worth purchasing; or you could just try to catch some of these tunes on your local classic rock station. Rating: - Skynyrd's debut is still a masterpiece 35 years after its releaseFloridians Lynyrd Skynyrd's debut album Prounounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd was released in August, 1973. The band from Jacksonville, Florida first got together when a tough-looking small man with a larger than life presence and voice named Ronnie Van Zant first met guitarist Gary Rossington and drummer Bob Burns while playing baseball. As fate has it, Van Zant hit a foul ball and KO'd Burns and the two plus Rossington planted the seeds for what became Lynyrd Skynyrd. Shortly thereafter, the trio joined forces with guitarist Allen Collins and bass player Leon Wilkeson. To complete the band was ex-Strawberry Alarm Clock guitarist, California native Ed King and then-roadie and keyboardist, Texan native Billy Powell. Shortly thereafter, Wilkeson ...

I still LOVE Gary and Billy, who are with the new "Skynyrd", but I don't think anyone would disagree that we lost the real Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1977. "Pronounced" is their first album and it has that feel from the road, playing gigs all over the country, driving miles and miles. You can hear that they live what they play. I hope you will buy this album, kick back with a beer (or a coke a cola), turn it up loud and get to know these extrordinary musicians. I love RVZ 4ever!!!! Rating: - Skynyrd's finest studio albumOkay, so this isn't Dylan or the Beatles, but it sure is fun. Lynyrd Skynyrd's debut album isn't just "the one with 'Free Bird' on it", it's much more than that, one of the original group's best efforts, and quite possibly the best one of the lot. It mixes heartfelt ballads, country, swaggering riff-rockers, and the delightfully silly down-home boogie-rock of "Gimme Three Steps" and "I Ain't The One". I do prefer the slightly tougher (and string-less) live rendition of "Tuesday's Gone" from the "One More From The Road" album, but this one is no throwayay either. And you can't help but love the aforementioned "Gimme Three Steps" and "I Ain't The One", a wonderful blend of self-deprecating lyrics and gritty guitar riffs. The ...

Shortly afterward, again on Beaker Street, I heard "Tuesday's Gone" and "Freebird" and that was that--I had to get this album.Get this disc, take off your shoes, crack open a cold one and boogie down southern style. |
