      Watch the live version 1977 Oakland coliseum auditorium version. Ignore the flag in the background it doesn't mean what you think it does & notice the people in the crowd how much better the 1970's were.

      It is just like getting ducked the first time, just better, much better. Free Bird is basically the best music you can do with some guitars. It is epic because they were so good.
      And now you understood why the call "Free Bird" in case of a band asking what they should play cannot be done :D

      With all the energy the musicians put into the song, please include the 4th guitarist -- the bassist -- as he works his fingers off near the end. You must check out the live performance at Oakland Coliseum in July 1977. You'll be amazed at the size and enthusiasm of the crowd. Maybe react to that video, too?

    Lynyrd Skynyrd was opening for The Who, in St Louis, on November 28, 1973. We were running extremely late for the show and got to our seats when the crowd was screaming for LS to play an encore. Of course, the encore was Free Bird and it was the only song I was able to see performed live by the original band members.Then The Who can on and performed Quadrophenia in all its splendid entirety. All in All, it was a phenomenal night of music.

    This song was released in 1974, but the most famous version was recorded live in July of 1977. Unfortunately 3 months later, their chartered plane went down along with lead singer Ronnie Van Zant and lead guitarist Steve Gaines. Although the group was recreated 10 years later by Ronnie's brother, it never was the same.

    Empress this made me smile so much. Heres the thing, everybody watching this, and I mean EVERYBODY knows this track; and and we are all just waiting to see your face at the point it transitions into upbeat Southern rock. And you didn’t disappoint. The range of faces you made describe a series of pictures of joy and amazement. Its a fabulous number loved by so many even after all these years (its early to mid 70s but somebody who knows better will correct me) - Certain tracks are famous for these changes/surprises call them what you will that take the reactor by pleasant surprise, and this is one of them. Great reaction, your face is an absolute picture.
    If I may be so bold as to suggest you react to Deep Purples Child in time (Studio version ) you will experience something similar but even better (in my opinion) than Freebird, as good as Freebird obviously is. Treat us all and give it a go, you wont regret it.

    Ms. E., Too many songs to mention; but here goes 3, "Tuesday's Gone" a great ballad, "Sweet Home Alabama"
    & "They Call Me The Breeze" one of the best driving songs ever.. ♠W.G.
