Summary:
By the time Lynyrd Skynyrd played this sold-out show at San Francisco's Winterland ballroom, they had become the unmistakable kings of Southern Rock. Spearheaded by charismatic frontman, Ronnie Van Zant, the group had taken southern boogie from the swamps and brought it to the masses.
There is an enormous amount of energy and power in the multiple guitar mix of the band, and that is clearly apparent when they launch into solos on these songs. The group had built a solid following via AOR radio by 1975, and songs like "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Free Bird" had given the band enormous crossover appeal. The group was coming off two hugely successful albums, its debut (pronounced leh-nerd skin-nerd) and 1974's Second Helping, and they had recently replaced original drummer Bob Burns with Artimus Pyle.
This show was recorded during the band's tour promoting their 1975 album, Nuthin' Fancy, and it features Lynyrd Skynyrd at the top of their game. It was also one of the last shows featuring their original three-guitar lineup, as Ed King left the band midway through the tour. Skynyrd confidently played its brand of riff-driving Southern fried rock boogie to near capacity crowds on this entire '75 tour.
Poignant songs like "The Needle And The Spoon" are balanced against established Skynyrd rockers such as "Saturday Night Special" and "Gimmie Three Steps." Songs like "Whiskey Rock-A-Roller", J.J. Cale's "Call Me The Breeze", and "Sweet Home Alabama" are played here in their early forms-many of these classics would re-emerge as part of the must-do repertoire of so many country artists.
The band ends the show with a predictable but crowd-pleasing, version of its radio anthem, "Free Bird." Sadly, the band would change drastically when some of its members, including lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, would die in a plane crash two years after this show was recorded.

God How I wish I could turn the clock back!
Me too!!
Same here.
Back to January 1974 would be absolutely perfect for a start date.
I'd go with you and grab a dime bag on the way!
No slight to Billy but the harmonica, extra guitar from Ed King, and all done a half step slower makes this song come alive with that Southern blues style rock and roll that put Skynyrd on the map. This is by far the best version of the song they could of possibly put forth.
That's Lee Freeman playing harmonica. A friend of Ed's and a band member with Ed during their Strawberry Alarm Clock days.
I love ED but not as good without Billy's epic piano solo.
Fuken'eh!
Every one of Lynyrd Sknyrd's guitarist is the greatest guitar player in the band.
Apart for Gary Rossington haha.
Who's playing harmonica ?
@@rizreid8670 Lee Freeman, ex Strawberry Alarm Clock .....
@@stephenpjohnson2866 Thanks
Great song as are all they played. Miss the greatest music ever! 🎶👍
Ed King and Steve Gaines were born on the day and year. Miss them dearly.
RIP Ronnie, Steve, Cassie & Dean- 43 years ago today. You'll be sadly missed. P/S nice work Ed King. Never saw this before!
WHOO Ed really made that come alive!
There no mistaking Ed Kings legendary licks!!
...and sound. He used a Marshall.
Ed King, what a cool dude, RIP brother.
I love Ed's solo at 4:26. I'm gonna try to tab it. Also, it's interesting to note that he is playing a Les Paul for this song.
if you have finished tabbing it, please send me a link i live that solo!
u ever get that tab ?
@@jimmycurry5113I learnt it by ear 3 years ago (played it in a band) but I never tabbed it out unfortunately. I haven’t played the solo since then, so I don’t quite remember how to anymore.
Ed said he traded his les paul for a stratocaster when he joined the band so his tone would stick out....but he also played SGs and Les Pauls......
ABSOLUTELY LOVED THAT HARMONICA!!
Rest in peace Gary Rossington. Thank you for your awesome guitar!
These guys brought the spirit of southern rock to life.thats a high bar.
RIP Ed King.

Outside of the Allmans, possibly the greatest band America has produced.
I first saw them live summer of 1975. National Orange Show Stadium, San Bernardino, CA. They opened for Black Sabbath. Crazy great show
Too bad they tore that place down... it was a very underrated venue... you from Berdoo?
@@charlesbukowski9836 a small plane crashed into it. Unfortunately they decided to demolish it. Yeah born and raised in San Ber’dino as Zappa said. Lol. Are you?
@@davidflint12 Yeah.. its all horrible now.. it used to be just downtown and the West side... now the entire city is like South Central L.A.
@@charlesbukowski9836 I agree
Probably the last footage of Ed as a member of the band, a month after this he was gone.
Sorry kids this is real music not this rap pop shit this is AMERICAN music
All those thumbs down have holes in their souls
I live watching Ronny's face when he sings
geez, the riffs that flow outta these guys is amazing......
Ed kicks it
Very good. harmonica very good. good energy from the song. Thank You for sharing
It's a southern Thang...y'all wouldn't understand!!!!
Great cover! Always loved L Skynyrd, but them doin JJ as well.... great!
Every guitarist the BEST. Leon BEST Bass Player Ever ..he and Steve Gaines rock the harmonizing ❤️💋
Steve Gaines was not in Lynyrd Skynyrd at the time. He joined in early 1976...
I wish I had the biggest baddest stereo system in the whole world because I wouldn't need bomb s or gun s I would just need good old boy rock n roll to win any wars 🤔🇺🇸👍
I wish I used this song last week as a tribute to Ed King!!! Such a great guitar solo!!!❤
Ed King and his harmonica friend is ripping it up! Ronnie is so getting into it never heard him do it this well!
Oh my gosh I can hardly stop to dancing at night. I'm so excited so I almost smash my desk
I like this version better than the studio, no irritating horns.
Ed is King, but Jesus, there is no one like Gary!!!!
GOD SAYS MR BREEZE FITS ME WELL
Freeze the video right @ the 4:34 mark ... that is the definition of rock ...
Fuckn' A brother
Leon is sooooo cool
Some fine stuff here! Great rendition I’m sure made JJ happy…
Holy smokes! Epic
This is real music not what kids listen to
Essa música soa com a essência do southern...
THOSE IN THE BREEZ VIDEO TRULY WISH THEYS STILL HERE !+! NUTHIN FANCY ! BUT ON L Y THE BESTEST BEST !!!
Who is jamming on the harmonica. Kicks azz?!!!!!
Lee Freeman is the harmonica player. He played for the Strawberry Alarm Clock along with Ed King.
I miss the piano solo from Billy, truly shows his skills, gifted hands!
And the Drummer is awesome
ALRIGHT
Awesome
Ed King ripping it up!!! Nice
Best Band Ever.
That harmonica solo!!!
Fuck ya Ed King ! and that Harmonica sounded pretty good too .
Yes indeed....That IS Lee Freeman from Strawberry Alarm Clock....he was always amazing on harmonica....Ed ain't too shabby either...After SAC broke up both Lee and Ed went on to Skynyrd...they all met when LS was the opening act on a couple of SAC tours in the South. Lee was mainly a behind the scenes guy and his wife Jan did the artwork for the Second Helping album cover. Lee passed away on Feb. 14 2010...RIP my little bro.
wonderful , i was 18
RIP Hometown boy Gary Rossington
I wish I could seen his in concert
Was that Rusty Day from CACTUS on the harmonica??? If so, then that makes this the only known piece of video footage of the guy!!!!! XD
+The Brave & The Awesome This version of this song is epic with Ed Kings added solos and no piano...One of a kind for sure! Ed King makes that guitar talk ..lol
Too bad he lived such a violent life.
+Joey Lupo
Always enjoyed it when they slowed down a bit and put more blues into this song. Ed King rips that guitar! Ed gave Skynyrd that trademark early sound. Too bad he left so early.
Lee Freeman from Strawberry Alarm Clock. Ed'd old bandmate.
Pre Skynyrd days, Steve Gaines played with Rusty Day in the band Detroit. By the by, JJ Cale was from Oklahoma, not Tennessee, but recorded a lot in Nashville.
Noticable void here without Billy
Call Me The Breeze
I keep Blowing Down The Road!!
Wooo.. woo.. uh.. ohh..........
Must Be The Breeze
It's odd seeing RVZ without the hat. Never got to see the original band but I did see them in 2019.
Best/m
Artimus pyle can play the drums
yes he can. a very under rated drummer!!!
Hey just curious... did the harmonica guy play on mississipi kid too?
Pete Townshend loved Skynyrd!
Definitely a noticeable void after Ed left and they went with two guitars for a bit. It's like omitting a crucial ingredient from a recipe, you might not know exactly what's missing, you just know SOMETHING is missing. As far as I'm concerned, he WAS the sound behind early Skynyrd.
ed left a huge hole in the sound , all his solos from his epic solo on Sweet Home Alabama to his all his slide guitar work on songs like Don't Ask Me no Question and Railroad song. His great fill in solos instead of the piano on this whole concert 1975 Winterland Concert were great
Yea bro they was a wayy tighter band '75 and before
I honestly really did the period where it was just Allen and Gary. There was something special about just letting Allen loose and him just ripping into solos.
I don’t know man gimmie back my bullets was a great album and Steve gains, in my opinion, was probably the best guitarist to ever play in Skynyrd
@@Abored_Angel_ Ed brought song writing and riffs.... you could tell a difference after he left...
There is no good music anymore!
Anyone got any idea who is playing that lick at 5:44 ?
Why can't I play Knebworth Call Me the Breeze without it being stopped midway through the song? WTH???
Ok so whos on harmonica since it's not listed?
Cub Coda
JJ Cale was from Oklahoma, not Tennessee. Doh!
I think Ronnie is saying where he lived at the time.
@@Raughwe I think he went from Oklahoma to the L.A. area, like so many did back in those days. I have never heard of JJ Cale being in or around Tennessee.
@@teerexness He lived in Nashville during the 70's. They all did. They were in the country music business.
@@Raughwe No bio I've ever seen mentioned Nashville. Nor did the Eagles, Poco, The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Gram Parsons, etc.. All were centered in or around Laurel Canyon California. They were in the phony anti-war, hippie creation movement.
@@teerexness "Cale achieved his greatest successes while living and working in Nashville during the 1970s. Among his best-known songs are “After Midnight,” “Call Me the Breeze,” “Clyde,” “The Sensitive Kind,” “Crazy Mama” and “Cocaine.”"

I wonder if the 15 that don't like this are crack heads🤔👍
Who that on harmonica?
This is American music no leftist woke crap
I have to disagree. Rossingtons solo on this is the best rock and roll solo of all time, bar none. Ed King's contribution at 4:26 is not so good, pretty normal at best.
Agreed Tom
This is lynyrd skynyrd I don't like the new lynyrd skynyrd
I saw this tour in Dallas. CDB opened.
