I was at this concert. My first live show. Hard to believe, but Lynyrd Skynyrd wasn't the headliner. It is as an all day event, The Outlaws opened up, then Santana, Skynyrd, and the top of the bill was Peter Frampton. I don't recall Frampton so much, but boy do I remember Skynyrd.

About 10 times for me too. Just one of those times they were the opening act. ZZ Top was the headliner. I have nothing against ZZ Top, but when Skynyrd closed with Freebird, the night of music was over for me and I left. More music to come after Freebird has been played? No....sorry....it just doesn't work that way.

Just pure talent, no Auto-Tune, no phones or distractions in the crowd. All just enjoyed the music, I miss these days. Hard to find a live performance now that I care for, all the dancers, tape loops, Auto-Tune voices, special effects that are in place to hide the lack of talent.

I love how it goes to a sad and calm song to the most intense song that would play in a jet war movie

You just watched the greatest concert on earth. No one ever can hold a candle to lynyrd skynyrd.

I'm one of those granny's! We lived such a natural time. We loved makeup but wore very little and just lived naturally clean faced. Our music was fantastic! Thank you for doing this live.

Look at all those young people out there having a good time so many women love Lynyrd Skynyrd as well. That was in 1977 I was 18 now I'm a grandmother

This was 44 years ago. These women who were there as 20 years old are now 64 years old and grandmothers today. One of the best rock bands America has ever produced. Awesome reaction.

Thank you for this video. I knew you would like it more than the audio. Another couple of songs from them that I love are “T for Texas “ and “Honkytonk Nighttime Man”. I think you would love them.

So happy you're discovering Lynyrd Skynyrd! Always loved this. I know someone has probably mentioned this before, but there were two guitars playing off each other in this classic guitar duo. And they were playing fast, and in time with each other. Never seen anything like it since, and it's been 45 years. Skynyrd with the that lineup, including Alan Collins, Steve Gaines and Gary Rossington on lead guitar, Billy Powell on keyboards, Artimus Pyle on drums and Ronnie Van Zandt, the lead singer, songwriter and heart and soul of that band - they were special. We will never see their like again.

One of the greatest tracks in rock history and one of the best solo guitars ever

Classic song Joy!!!!!!! Great reaction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free as a Bird. Then they board the Bird ✈️ and never to be seen again. My God. this performance is iconic amazing sad devastatingly so ….even now. I remember the shock.

Enjoyed this reaction! This is an epic performance!

Times were different back in the 20th century. The music told the story of the times. Lynyrd Skynyrd we’re a group of boys who grew up together in Jacksonville Florida as poor kids with dream and just listen to that beautiful music. Uninhibited freedom of expression

Lynyrd Skynyrd is THE quintessential Southern Rock band...but was tragically plagued by bad luck. Sadly, only two members of this lineup are still living today, slide guitarist Gary Rossington (who made the bird sounds on his guitar) and drummer Artimus Pyle. It was just a few weeks after this that the tragic plane crash happened that killed lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines (red pants) and Steve's sister, backing vocalist Cassie Gaines (not seen in this video). That began a long run of tragedy for the band that included the deaths of pianist Billy Powell, guitarist Allen Collins (white shirt and pants) and bassist Leon Wilkerson, as well as a few others not seen in this video. As someone who was born in the 60s and grew up in the 70s, these guys were amongst my musical heroes.

Oh those were the days. I'm in my 60s now and I feel so lucky I grew up during a time of amazingly great music.pink Floyd, deep purple, black Sabbath, rush and many more. The artistry and talent have all but disappeared. As the musicians union say, "keep music live" ✌️♥️🇬🇧

Gorgeous!!!!! Ohhhhhhhhh yes. Wonderful reaction!!!!

The good old days,People came to enjoy music all together no phones no fights just having a great time

You really seemed to enjoy the piano player , Billy Powell. Watch the video of Call Me The Breeze, Live from the Old Grey Whistle 1975. You wanna see piano playing, you will be amazed at his skills, the camera zooms in on him and you will see the best piano playing ever.

They’re the best, in my humble opinion. I’ll watch this reaction in just a bit. I love your reactions.

Sad song when you think of the crash that took them… god rest their souls they left an impression on a lot of us …..rock on

Aww, I loved you shouting back at it, "I'm also free as a bird!" So cute. I'm glad you watched/reacted to this version after doing the (also great) studio version. It's worth listening to both, without a doubt.

Empress great reaction....Lynyrd Skynrd Southern Rock greatness..Southern Rock at it's finest. I believe 3 months later after this concert they got into The Airplane accident....Seen them do this song live ..Great Stuff....Can you please do a video reaction to the song Here Comes The Sun by The Beatles...Thank YOU And Have a good day...

This is the reason I asked you to watch this live version, so much better than just listening to a recording. Loved your reaction. Sad thing about this concert is that three months later their plan crashed killing three members including the lead singer

You jammed right with me (from wherever you are) God Bless & the winds be with you! You are a beautiful person!! Thanks for the pure reaction

I've seen this video many many times, still got chills. But to see the pure Joy of your face, priceless! Thank you for the reaction.

The live show from the same year in England when they opened for the Rolling Stones and blew them out of the water is completely superior to this one and way better sound quality. Plus when the organizers told the opening bands not to venture on to the huge tongue shaped stage the stones would use Ronnie pushed the band on to it anyways is so awesome.

There were plenty of people in the '70s and '80s (Dukes of Hazzard) that didn't know much about the Confederate Flag other than that it looked cool (it does) and was associated with the South. I remember seeing it all over the place and not thinking or knowing about its full historical context. A lot of people did just see it as an expression of "Southern Pride", and not a racist symbol of people so committed to black slavery that they rebelled against their country. But times change, and it's good to reevaluate things from time to time!

Thank you! Beautiful reaction as always with much respect. 💕

When Allen Collins kicks off with the guitar solo, the whole stadium erupts. I love it.

One of the cool things about music is its ability to take us somewhere else. The '70s were not such a happy simple time. Vietnam, Watergate, and massive civil unrest were going on. Nostalgia is a funny thing.

I just watched your reaction. Yes. Speechless is a perfect description.

The first couple in the stadium shadows were slow dancing and they both looked totally romantic and into each other. The 2nd couple near the end, the blond girl before the first kiss seemed to be giving him a lecture and waved her hand and then it looked like he just moved in to steal a kiss which she returned but then she turned her head back rather fast to watch the great performance of the LS band. The 2nd time she again turned quickly toward the band. The 3rd time she stiff necked him because like any music lover she did not want to miss out on the finale of this once in a lifetime magical performance. I thought that he was being insensitive to her desire to watch the concert, it didn't appear he got several hints. And I hope the randy boor didn't get any after the concert. lol

Everyone who has ever heard this song once is forever low key waiting for, "..chayayayayayayange. Won't you flyyyyy highiiiigh, Freeeeeee Biiird, yeahahah..." guitar Nirvana ensues....

So glad you took the time to go back and check out Skynyrd doing Freebird live from this show in Oakland in 77'. The studio version is terrific, but their live versions of Freebird were always epic and iconic!

Love your reaction to the change up at 9:22 haha my favorite part of the solo

Sadly, shortly after this concert (same year) their plane went down and we lost the lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines (the one in red pants) and his sister Cassie Gaines who was Steve’s sister and one of three backup singers.

Haha! I was at that concert just before I left the Navy. Started with Blue Oyster Cult, then these guys and ended with Peter Frampton. Had a buddy get some tickets for us (me, the wife and 3 other buddies stationed in Long Beach, Ca. at the time). He was in Hunter's Point in San Francisco. Great concert, then Chinatown for dinner. 😍🤗😉

Check out Rock documentary "if I leave here tomorrow" about this band it's funny, touching and sad

I notice a lot of people looking kinda confused when they hear Gary Rossington using a glass slide on his guitar making the bird chirping sounds . Think about the name of the song is all you have to do . Freebird.... Long Live Skynyrd Nation 💜

Don't know what I loved more? Your reaction to this incredible performance or the way you pronounce Angus?! Anyway, glad to see you smile so much over this epic live version of one of the GOAT Rock songs ever produced!

YOU HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SOUL. I'll stop there b/c I could talk about your other beauties as well, but the 1st statement was what I really wanted to say.

What a perfect reaction to this classic. Polite attention to the beginning and the storyline from the lyrics...and then the anticipation... and then Magic Johnson-like, light-up-the-room-SMILE tells you all you need to know. Enveloped by the best guitar solo in rock-n-roll history, that kicks in big time, grabs ahold of you and will not let go.

Great reaction beautiful young lady!!! Love it!!!

Just 4 months later,it,it all ended, when there tour plane crashed.Please keep there music going,and give use more,like ballad of Curtis Lowe,Tuesday gone,gimme three steps to name just a few.😃🇨🇦😷

I saw a young lady who reacted to this and her thumbnail said "Our grandmas were so hot!" LOL!

Allen wrote this as a love song for his wife. If you really listen you’ll hear it this way and it’s the most beautiful love song ever. RIP Allen.

Yes!!! A few accounts have been reacting to this song lately. To the studio version though. You picked the right one! 😀

Sadly, 3 months after this concert on Octobe 20, 1977 There was a Horrible plane crash 3 members of the band were were killed including the Lead singer wearing the Hat Ronnie Van Zant,, the Guitarist Steve Gaines wearing Red pants and long sleeve White shirt and his sister Back up Vocalist Cassie Gaines and a Road Manager Dean Kilpatrick.
