Billy Powell was classically trained on piano and was working as a roadie for LS. They didn’t even know he played until they overheard him messing around one day. The rest is history!
I heard he was a big time prog lover.
The band asked him to repeat chords and notes and he became the southern rock pianist icon.
I love his piano playing. 🤩
Did not know that! Amazing! He had “the touch “ for sure. Great honky-tonk, barroom type player on the recordings. I’ve never heard him play anything close to Classical.
There’s a Lynyrd Skynyrd video out there that mentions this.
Great reaction guys! One hell of a party song.
Allen Collins, Gary Rossington, Ed King and Steve Gaines.... four absolutely fantastic underrated guitar players of that era.
Allen Collins especially!
I’m pretty sure this was Gary but yes, they all killed.
Have you guys done Freebird yet? Will have to check the channel. If not the live version please.
Love the channel
@@mattsabath They did live and studio.
Definitely underrated. Steve Gaines unfortunately only had street survivors and another album which he was his band. But all four were phenomenal in the roles they were put in for the songs that was meant for them
Totally agree
One of the BEST piano solos ever! Billy Powell would play em just as good in concert! RIP
This solo was almost exclusively played using only his right hand.
This song is only one of a few not written by Lynyrd Skynyrd. It’s a cover of the song call me the breeze written by JJ Cale. And the piano player is Billy Powell who was actually a Roadie who Ronnie Van Zant found out was a classically trained pianist and worked him into the band.
JJ Cale is an underrated songwriter. This song, After Midnight, and, of course, Cocaine, are all great songs written by JJ!
Crazy Mama is a real treat
@@razooly69 They also covered J.J's I Got The Same Old Blues.
This is the very definition of Southern Rock.
Billy Powell's piano is amazing.
"I ain't got me nobody, I don't carry me no load." Classic right here!
I always wait for the "WOOOOOOOOO!!!!" in the background during Billy Powell's solo so I can WOOOOO!! right along with it 🙂
YES! The whistle too!😮
Hell yeah brother
To me, Skynyrd is like the southern rock band equivalent of Led Zeppelin. Great variety, excellent musicians, awesome showmanship, and raw talent.
This song was written by JJ Cale originally. They also covered his Got The Same Ol Bues too. Claptons Cocaine and After Midnight are aslo JJ Cale songs.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is blowing by like a Cat 5 Hurricane, chasing after a Runaway Train with no brakes. This is an old J.J. Cale song that they
made their own. It's that North Florida Southern Rock that just keeps jumpin'. Great choice as always by the Reaction Kings Airplay Beats.
This would be something on the jukebox in a honky tonk bar. It's the energy and the carefree attitude.
This is very much Southern Rock! ❤
J.J. Cale classic that Skynard made their own. Great cover...you guys really need to check out Cale's Naturally album in it's entirety, as well as J.J. Cale and Eric Clapton's Road to Escondido. Thanks for the best reaction channel going!
You should also mention JJ's work with Leon Russell. They started out playing honky tonk in Oklahoma in the 1950s. Pull up JJ and Leon at Paradise Studio, 1979.
I guess that back in the 70s, there weren't such rigid categorizations of music. You could have groups that put out songs that sounded a little "country", but maybe because of the guitar arrangements, were clearly not in the same category as the sort of thing you'd hear from the Grand Ole Opry and the real country music performers. Radio stations were open to playing a variety of music, so the same station would play progressive, Southern, R&B, and as time went on from the 70s into the 80s, disco, funk, punk, new wave, and metal. Now it seems that everyone has to choose a lane and stay in it.
I have to differ in opinion on your point about not having lanes back in those days. Progressive rock stations would play all the music you listed, but they did not play country music. They might play some crossover country musicians, like willie Nelson, but certainly not Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty, or Loretta Lynn. And Contry stations in the 70s did not play Southern or Country Rock. Lynyrd Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker, and other Southern Rock groups created a paradigm shift that changed Country Music forever. Most Country Music today is really a descendant of the Southern or Country Rock that had been created by Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels, and Marshall Tucker in the 70s (although not even close to as good).
At least that was my experience growing up in the sticks outside of St.Louis. The country western and rockers did not mix.
@@majones501 I was speaking within the confines of what became pop and rock music. I already said that country music was a separate category, even in the past, and no, classic country musicians were not played on the radio stations that played pop and rock music. I said that in the past, as you also noted, listeners would hear a broad range of styles on stations that played pop and rock music. Today there is very little overlap between stations that play hip hop, stations that play "adult contemporary", and stations that play "country". You can sort of get a mixture of styles on oldies stations that play what was played in the past, but the corporate playlists for those stations seem to have a time frame and they're now playing mostly 80s and 90s music. What passes for country music today, for the most part, has little authenticity and attempts to be some kind of weird mixture of rock-like music with a lot of pedal steel guitars and fiddles.
God, I miss those days when radio stations played a little bit of everything. Fucking corporations ruined all genres of music.
One of the best southern rock performances EVER! They all show off their chops on this one, but the ripping guitar leads are what really put it over the top for me.
horns are the Rolling Stones horn section from their prime...Bobby Keys Sax, Jim Price Trumpet. Skynyrd knew their session men!
Saw them LIVE, Fillmore style- 3rd row back, Ronnie barefoot. Had the whole crowd rocking!! Party band💯 Fun memories 👍🏻 Glad I got to see the Original band❤
Ronnie never wore shoes onstage
My dad saw them at Oakland Coliseum two months before the plane crash
J.J. Cale helped Lynyrd Skynyrd and Eric Clapton tremendously
he never cared about the recognition RIP JJ
Man! That was some hard-core Southern boogie-woogie right there! One of my favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd tracks! Great reaction La & Che, and as always Love, Peace & Blessings!!!
It's actually J.J. Cale song. So is After Midnight, Cocaine, and I Got The Same Old Blues that they covered..
One of my fav Lynyrd Skynyrd tunes! Evokes memories of outdoor parties, bbq, head bobbin, beer and reefer madness under the sun...I never appreciated the production aspects until you blokes! Just a great boogie tune custom made for parties...well played gents! Cheers!
It's actually J.J. Cale song. So is After Midnight, Cocaine, and I Got The Same Old Blues that they covered..
This song is just KILLER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song just drags you along with its backdraft. A great Autumn driving song through the changing of the leaves preferably with an old drop top Cadillac or Impala
Aw, this is a pure summer time, cruising the back roads with a carful of your best friends at too fast a speed, a little high, a little drunk, and not one worry in the whole wide world 🤣🥰
Mercy , this Record's got the signature of all timer brilliance written all over it .
Thanks gents for showcasing these timeless tunes .
One classic tune after another, we were so spoiled...
@@vicprovost2561
I hear ya bro .
Spot on .
awesome cover of a JJ Cale song. Eric Clapton also covered this and many other JJ Cale songs. JJ Cale is one of my favorite singer/song writer, may he rest in peace.
You fellas need to check out Skynyrd's "I Know a Little" from their last album - "Street Survivors" .... wonderful guitar work and beat ...... I think you'd really enjoy that one.
Second that, again.
I didn't enjoy that album much. Gimme Back My Bullets was their last great album IMO.
When I saw them in 1976 at Springfield Mass, They had over 20,000 PEOPLE DANCING when they played this song! I'LL NEVER EVER FORGET SEEING THAT MANY PEOPLE DANCING AT ONCE ! 🕺💃🕺💃🐐🐐🐐🐐😁❤️❤️❤️😍😍🔥🔥🎸🎸😢😢😢😢😢
First concert I ever saw. 1976. Lynyrd Skynyrd was a PHENOMENAL band.
this song was written by the late great JJ Cale, who Eric Clapton was a huge fan of and covered a lot of his compositions. Watch Clapton and JJ Cale do this song Live.. It's so Bluesy . Great performance
One of the ol' rokin roll favorites ruclips.net/video/m8-NEYx-evg/видео.html
One of my top 5 songs from my top 3 band!!!!! Pedal to the metal every time. !
JJ Cale from Tulsa OK, also wrote "Tulsa Time" " Cocaine" and many other great songs.
Great J. J. Cale tune that Skynyrd covered with that southern rock goodness.
Another great reaction...one of my favorite bands. The ballad of Curtis Lowe, is probably one you should react to. It's based on a true story, except for the guy's name wasn't really Curtis Lowe... They had to protect his identity.
I love it because…
Cut to the band playing this song in a backroad bar and a barroom brawl breaks out and while chairs are being thrown and bottles being broken, the band just keeps playing and smiling..and ducking ❤
Guys the live version at knebwort is simply musical excellence none better
Glad you found the Billy Powell version. The first studio version had a harmonica solo instead of Billy's piano solo!
You begin to see why LS is at the top of the southern rock anthems.
This cover version of the JJ Cale original should be cited in the definition of a banger! And what a way to bang lol! And although I am a huge guitar fan, the best thing about this is Billy Powell's piano solo. This is my favourite song of theirs.
The production is fantastic for sure! The great Al Kooper. Produced their first 3 albums. Their best stuff!
Street Survivors is their best record, even Ronnie said so.
Billy Powell was LS's secret weapon, he elevated them above all the rest!
Ah, that honkytonk ragtime piano & the horns take this one to a whole nother level! Thanks for your reaction.
They were one of forerunners of the 3 guitar attack! 🎸🎸 🎸
The studio albums are good, but the best sound and quality of play are generally on One More from The Road, live album. To me, this is one of their best songs
Guys, if you liked this one, you’ll also like “I know a little”. Another great jam!
This is THE TULSA SOUND on display. Mr. JJ Cale from T-Town wrote this gem and Skynyrd knocked it out the park. JJ also wrote After Midnight and Cocaine that Clapton made famous.
Song was written my JJ Cale who came out of the Tulsa Oklahoma music scene (a mix of blues, blues rock, country, rock and roll and swamp pop sounds of the late 1950s and early 1960s says Wixipedia) and included JJ, Leon Russel, Elvin Bishop and more.
Everybody in this band ruled. Plus, if you grew up in the culture I grew up in, if you're a band that actually acts like it's going to be serious, this is something you have to have as your credentials to do it solidly.
The Breeze is song by J.J. Cale, Skynyrd did good job covering it. Try a Skynyrd song, "I Ain't The One" First song of their first album.
The way you guys just talked about layers is exactly why you guys can appreciate even music that is not your type of genre! Some bands just have so much talent and chemistry that you have to like or love it. Thanks guys!!!!
And to make it even more impressive he plays almost that entire piano solo one-handed.
"I Need You" off this album is a must listen. Great blues guitar.
Great Song & great reaction ! For a blues song check out I Need You , for a straight on Rocker, The Needle & The Spoon, for a Country/ Blues song, The Ballad of Curtis Leow(Low) all on the same album.
Been shuffling my feet to these hometown west side Jax boys for >50 yrs ! PLENTY more to react to!
JJ Cale song. They took a great song and made it even better!
The PERFECT Band. Wish we could’ve gotten a few more albums, but they left us with some timeless GOLD. God Bless LS.
A great tune forsure. The comment about Dallas made me crack up. The greatest cliff hanger of all time. Who shot JR?
The Street Survivors album came with a tour schedule on it. Me and my buddies were planning on seeing them in Detroit but then the plane crash happened. Very sad, the initial album cover has the band in a city street at night with flames all around them. After the crash they changed the cover, it was just a black background with the band standing shoulder to shoulder.
I still have the album with the flames and the tour schedule for ‘77-‘78 still inside of it printed on a red album sized piece of glossy paper. I bought it about 2 days before the crash. It says “Lynyrd Skynyrd TOTS” (Ironically ”Tour of the Survivors”). Was all set to buy tix to see them at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto but alas the rest is history.
I had just bought the album, too, before the tragedy. I forgot it had the tour schedule included with the album. My bum younger brother lost track of my albums when I moved away from New Orleans. I had quite a large collection in 1980. Including another album from The Rolling Stones -- Some Girls -- that was forced to change the cover due to it having photos of female celebrities for which the record label failed to obtain the legal rights to put on the cover.
Devastated was exactly right! That crash took so much away from the world of music. So glad we still have the songs & some videos around to remind us! ❤
The Old Grey Whistle Test video of this is fire 🔥. Check it out. Gary Rossington guitar solo and especially Billy Powell piano solo are epic!
Che understands the 5th dimension. He's come thru the door.
Definitely my favorite Skynyrd song, and that's saying something. "I don't love me no one woman, so I can't stay in Georgia long." Kick-Ass!!
Keep up the good work, Guys!
I am not a big Lynyrd Skynyrd fan. To be honest with you guys but this 1 is 1 of his better ones. I believe good stuff God bless.
They're a group
Whatever they are, I am not a big fan. It looks like you are nothing personal brother. I just don't listen to them, but thank you for sharing.
That's a goodie. They all are. Just randomly pick a song that you haven't heard yet, from any of their first five studio albums before the crash, and you'll see what I mean. Listen to the song Things Going On from the Pronounced album, which was their first. It wasn't a hit, but it should've been. All their songs from those albums are like that Imo.
To this day Skynyrd is my FAVORITE band of ALL time. Singularly unique. Powerhouse band. Amazing, amazing, amazing.
It just blows my mind how young they were. I could never
One of my favorites from this great Band.
Great JJ Cale cover. They also covered his Same Old Blues..Clapton covered JJ's After Midnight and Cocaine.
I would LOVE to see you do the two step to this! I will dance along with ya!!
The original version of this song is also well worth your time to listen to. J. J. Cale wrote so many incredible tunes that became hits for others, including Cocaine, and After Midnight, done by Eric Clapton. ✌🏼😎🇺🇸
Most definitely a fav song back in the day. With a car full of my girls driving down a Georgia backroad, a doobie and Skynyrd playing on the stereo, breeze in my hair. Pure joy!
You guys have too much fun during these reactions!
We hope you’re having just as much fun as we are.
@AirplayBeats I speak for many here when I say HELL YEAH and it looks like your about to go through the Black Sabbath catalog with Ozzy, REALLY looking forward to THAT!
Thank you for another Lynyrd Skynyrd reaction.
Lynyrd Skynyrd Lives On! Generation after generation.
The crash was a crushing tragedy
Skynrd takin' it to church! Yes Che, cant help but start clapping when it kicks in, lol
These guys were brilliant....worked there assests off as well
ROSSINGTON COLLINS ~ "DON'T MISSUNDERSTAND ME".....!!!
So glad you’re covering this one. It’s a banger. Can’t wait to see how you like it.
I was at a Charlie Daniels Band concert in St. Louis the night of the plane crash. Charlie and Lynyrd Skynyrd were good friends and he came out and told the audience he had just got word of the crash and they didn't know if anyone survived. He said he was dedicating the show to his friends, Lynyrd Skynyrd and he proceeded to burn that place down. Of course, there was no internet or cell phones back then, so we didn't know anything until the next day. I saw Lynyrd Skynyrd 4 times, the first time as an opener for The Who and they always brought the heat! Ronnie definitely was the man.
When I was a kid, Friday night was Dallas, then The Dukes of Hazzard. Mom and the sisters were locked into "Who shot JR?". I couldn't wait for that crap to end so I could watch them Duke boys weasel their way out of another pickle with Boss Hog and Roscoe P. Coltrane. Daisy Duke... the name speaks for itself.
This is a JJ Cale original and I am sure you would like him a lot also ..Check out his version of Call Me The Breeze and "After Midnight" -
Definite banger. I've always said that if this song don't get you moving you might want to try this song "I Know A Little".
Put on your dancing shoes Skynyrd is about to cut a rug... I ain't ever been a dancer but Skynyrd always got my boots flying.
LA, you hurt my heart saying this wasn't your style of music 😅
Leon absolutely killing it on base, Billy Powell killing it on the piano, horns insane. One of my favorite Skynyrd tracks for sure
It’s not my style but I loved it.
I loved hearing you guys rave about the layering in the production, knowing that the piano and horns were coming to add a whole 'nother layer to the cake. Wait for it...
I would be worth your time to hit J. J. Cale's original version of this song. It's very different, a guitar based Tulsa shuffle, but it's a great song as well.
One of their top 5 songs…..has it all.I found a piano shaped guitar pick of Billy Powell’s facsimile signature after a concert once…heaven!
This is a toe tapper and a leg bouncer! Too fast for the Two Step! Skynyrd was extremely versatile in their music! Best Southern Rock band ever!
Love Skynyrd! One of my favorite dance tunes!
Fantastic album truly a classic 😮
My ex loves this band and got to see them at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia on June 11, 1978 with J. Giles Band, Dickey Betts, and Peter Frampton. He told me he remembered the date because it was his 1st and only time he got to see them and said it was such a hot day. I told him that ten years later, on June 11, 1988, I got to see Metallica at JFK Stadium during the Monsters of Rock tour with Dokken, the Scorpions, and Van Halen. It was also a burning hot day that Saturday. Got sunburnt big time. Good times & nice review as always 🤘
From Philly here! The stadium was falling apart for years until they had to tear it down. Great times!
@retromom5421 . Yo!! Philly's in the house! Frankford gal here. I got to see Pink Floyd for the 1st time at JFK in 1987 when I was 17, and they opened up with Echoes!!! My brother was at the last concert at JFK, which was the Grateful Dead. He told me some great stories about the show like getting hosed down because, again, it was hot & Philly humid, doing LSD, and the last song, which was Dylan's Knockin' on Heaven's Door. In Dead lore, this show ranks high. You take care, Go Birds, and Go Phils💚🦅🏈❤️⚾️💙
Plane crash was Oct 1977, you sure you dont mean Jun 1977.
The kings of Southern Rock! They have so many great songs!
Wore the cassette out of Skynyrd’s greatest hits on the cassette player in my ‘78 Mercury Capri with my girlfriend next to me. Flying down the road with the windows open. Life was carefree with little responsibility! Magic times!
BIG CHE TWO STEPPA 😂
GREAT REACTION FELLAS !
AGAIN 🎉
MISSISSIPPI STILL ROCKING APB !
My friends in high school who like Lynyrd Skynyrd (and they were all white) thought they were listening to "Southern" or "Country" rock when they were listening to blues sung by Southern white boys. LOL. It was a bit clearer with the Allman Brothers, but still they would say Southern Rock--Nope. This is blues sung by Southern white boys.
“On the hunt” and “Saturday night special” and “Needle and the spoon” are musts by Lynyrd Skynyrd 💣🔥🥁🎸
Another rare Skynyrd recorded cover song . JJ Cale wrote great songs . Ronnie could take a great song and make it even better . That's now known as "Mr. Breeze" . Thanks for keeping this alive. Ronnie Van Zant is an American Icon & did not get properly catagorized by the music industry after his death . He & his Lynyrd Skynyrd band are among the greatest symbols of American exceptionalism . We clearly used to stand out bounds above the rest . That time has long past . Thanks again .
Got me watching it again,,,, after midnight is even better watch them both they are back to back in the concert
Guys this was Al Kooper producing them here. Look him up he has quite a history.
LS had three lead guitarist and meshed them together better than anyone else on earth.
"I Know A Little"
"Workin' for MCA"
"Gimme Three Steps"
You should do the live 1977 version ! It’s good real good ! Ashbury park NJ 7-13-1977 check it out this one has Steve Gains guitarist adding his twist it’s the best version to me ! Just a few months before the crash !
