    When LS returned to the States, reporters asked Ronnie why did he defy Mick Jagger's request to stay off the tough ? Ronnie told them he felt like the wrong band closed that night and he just wanted to prove to everyone that he was right. And he finished by saying, --- " And we did ".

    If you ask me, the Stone's had more to worry about, than where the band stood, on the stage, considering the fact, that you never want your opening act to be better than you.

    My 15 yr old son asked me if i could play him one song that is the pure epitome of rock n roll. I played him this song from this concert. What shocked me is he actually GOT IT. He understood. Till that moment he thought Metallica had the best guitarist. I said "Son, i got a whole world to introduce you to". Next week i'll teach him about Hendrix.

    I heard that they were told that they were not supposed to go onto the tongue as that was Mick's place on the stage. I love that Ronnie was like, "fuck that, get on out here boys" and was pushing Allen and Gary down the tongue. Skynyrd owned the stage that day.

    I love this band but when things get serious Allen Collins takes over and steals the show! The guy is so underrated he was unbelievable!

    • @glennprince9983
      @glennprince9983 3 года назад +31

      Yes he was. Collins was a Stone Cold Freak. Freaking G.O.A.T.

    • @Pilot545
      @Pilot545 3 года назад +18

      Agree! I think a big reason that he is underrated is that his career was so short (and tragic)...passing in 1990. Same year as SRV now that I think about it. Damn, 1990 was s**tier than I thought. 😢

    • @user-zq1gd3rd8e

      I agree, Alan Collins is extremely underrated!! In both his playing ability and his song writing!
      When ever they create a list of the all-time great guitar players none of the Skynyrd boys get the respect that they deserve! (And they had 4 damn good guitar players in the HOF!)

  • @edstein5642
    @edstein5642 Год назад +17

    Lynyrd Skynyrd & Ronnie Van Zant were all about “follow THIS!” They worked their asses off for years before they achieved fame. They were also about attitude & were incessantly in trouble for brawling & excessive intoxication. By the time they played Knebworth they, & Ronnie, were getting their act together & reaching a peak of performance excellence. By the time of the band’s plane crash in Oct 1977, they were probably the most exciting live band in the world.

    So old dude here (63), retired...surfing through Free Bird reactions at o'dark thirty and hit yours. "I've heard it before" = skip, but I stuck with ya and man this was a GREAT, clinical, Infantry worthy reaction and commentary off the charts. I laughed with the thumbs up, (Yes...she was) and the tip of the tongue comment. Subscribed, thumbs up and on notifications. Thanks for great commentary. So good I watched it back to back.
    Best part in the video is the Brit Stone fans planning to get some rest while these yanks play warm up...then realize...a train ran over us.

  • @MrNegative57
    @MrNegative57 3 года назад +79

    Notice Ronnie is physically pushing Allen and Steve to the front , then he waves Gary up and Leon ran out of cord. Leon's bass on both versions is insane. The whole band was more "On" on this version, Ronnie sounded great and it wasn't in the heat in Oakland. There is no question who was in charge. Ronnie. They didn't get near the credit they deserved for their talent. Their individual abilities.

  • @paulprovenzano3755
    @paulprovenzano3755 2 года назад +7

    they opened for the Rolling Stones on this show… And according to the British critics, they “blew the Stones off the stage.“ direct from the liner-notes of this album, ladies and gentlemen.
    (and, yes Ronnie. We heard you that time)

      @empyrealone 2 года назад +20

      You cannot follow Freebird. I went to Skynyrd opening for ZZ Top. I love ZZ Top, but frankly they don't put on a great show. And they followed Freebird. I actually felt bad for them. The crowd was asleep watching ZZ Top when they just saw Skynyrd.

  • @rockinredneck57
    @rockinredneck57 3 года назад +12

    It wasn't that Skynyrd blew the Stones off the stage, but Skynyrd was on earlier and obviously killed in their set. The Stones were the headliner and closed the show but they were late, like 2-3 hours late for their set. They were reportedly wasted and shabby in their performance. So shabby the crowd began to yell for Skynyrd to come back. That pissed them off. They left after maybe a handful of songs. Skynyrd was good in the studio but they were primarily a LIVE band. They practiced their asses off in an old house with no AC they called the Hell House. Ronnie demanded perfection. It showed in their concerts too.

    In 1976, I saw Lynyrd Skynyrd in Long Beach California. The Outlaws opened for them. Still ranks in the top 2 of concerts. Queen being the other. You mentioned the bass player. He was shredding all nite. I'm surprised the bass still had strings on it at the end.. Ronnie Vanzant would go on stage with no shoes because (and I quote) I want to feel the stage sizzle. (End quote). And boy, did it. They were the greatest party band.

      That is because Peter Frampton also played that day.

    Its crazy how the crowd looks almost asleep through the show - even laying out on the ground....until, that is...that THE solo begins....they start clapping....start looking up....start standing....by the end, looked like everyone was on their feet jumping and clapping. Even the show's promoter, backstage, is rumored to have mused aloud...'HOW do you follow that?'

    Also, I do not know if you heard, but Ronnie told the boys to play this for Dwayne Allman, a good friend of theirs who had died. He was with the Allman Brother's Band.

    I love how LIT Ronnie is in this video with that guitar solo which is 🔥🔥🔥🔥The good 'ol days when everything was tight right along with being stoned, intoxicated or both. In 1977 I was 15. I begged and begged my state trooper dad to go to the LSU concert WITHOUT him. So when he finally said yes my bestie & I were ecstatic.The same man who said yes, also told me Ronnie had passed away. To ALL who had the pleasure to see them live, you really witnessed something great. We STILL remember and miss you ✨✨

    LOL. I’ll just bet it is hard to say Rolling Stones with Lynyrd Skynyrd on your tongue. I like this performance because it’s longer. The camera didn’t catch Allen jumping as much, but we definitely heard the boy play. 🎶😃

    Most people would say Free Bird and Sweet Home Alabama were their best, but my favorite of theirs is Simple Man. If you review it, pull up the one with the lyrics.

      Yes, to Simple Man. Wise words from the great philosopher L. Skynyrd.

    Just rewatched the tongue part after you mentioned it. Ronnie walked Allen and Gary out himself then motioned Steve out then Leon who had to stop short due to his cord not being long enough. Dayum!!! You go Ronnie!
