I don't understand kids today...Back in 1977, you probably got into this concert for less than ten bucks, but you wouldn't have DARED take your eyes off the band for a minute for a phone!! When I attend concerts now, and we've all paid a minimum of $50 to see a band, and half the kids are checking their text messages....I just don't get it!

no wireless no auto tune everything plug in with cords just PURE TALENT !!!

This was from a time when music actually meant something. I like seeing younger people's reactions to music that was made long before they were born or even before their parents were born. I've read so many negative comments on other channels against "Boomers". One thing that is so very true about us Boomers, we had the best music of all time.

@B L, Very well said, and I couldn't agree with you more. I mean beyond the Beatles, we had CCR, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, Hendrix, Joplin, Heart, the Doobies--I could be here all night! The music takes each of us back to our memories, good and bad. It was palpable! What a time to be young. I am also so glad to see a young person, who is obviously so intelligent, loving "our Boomer music." The way she explains how she feels about how it affects her is so refreshing. I said this about her before; she is an "old soul." ✌✌

This long version was played at my brothers funeral back in 2010. Free bird. Even my Mom who was born in 1930 loved Free Bird & the band!!! Just as our entire family!!

When this song was originally written, the music to the song was written by a then 17 years old Allen Collins (the tall guitarist in white that plays the ripping lead at the end) and the lyrics to the song written at the ripe old age of 20 by lead singer Ronnie Van Zant. The song intially came out a few years after it was written on their debut album Pronounced Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1973 and would later be part of their brilliant live album recorded in Atlanta in 1976 called One More From The Road. To this day, Freebird remains one of the most iconic songs in rock history along with Zepplin's Stairway To Heaven and a few others. Not bad for a couple of high school dropouts which is what Collins, Van Zant, and most of the band all were.

I watched a movie about the stompers, anyway while they were recording in Alabama supposedly the piano player at the time was a roadie for them, but supposedly the band went to lunch, when they returned to the studio they heard what was the beginning of this song being played on the piano, turned out he was like concert pianist, and eventually they made him a official band member.

This song is the work of something inhuman. Its absolutely legendary. Thank you for reacting to this, its a big part of my childhood.

Singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines, and his sister and backing vocalist Cassie Gaines were killed in the plane crash. Lead guitarist Allen Collins was also injured in a car crash that killed his girlfriend and left him paralised from the waist down in 1986. He died four years later.

"Mesmerizing" and "phenomenal" are two great words to describe Skynyrd. Skynyrd was nothing but pure talent on that stage. Allen Collins is one of the most underrated guitarists out there. With Steve Gaines and Gary Rossington, they were an unbeatable trio -- pure passion.

The 70's were a great time to be a teenager. Rock and Roll was at it's peak! Living so close to NYC, there were multiple FM Rock Stations; 102.7 WNEW, 95.5 WPLJ, ect... Music was as necessary as Girls and Alcohol. If the radio wasn't on, there was an Album, 8 Track, or Cassette in the stereo. I Attended over 100 Concerts between 1976 and 1983. Some of the acts I saw (not a complete list) The Allman Brothers, Eagles, Lynyrd Skynyrd, AC/DC, 38 Special, Heart, The Outlaws, Marshall Tucker Band, ZZ Top, Doobie Brothers, Van Halen, Charlie Daniels Band, Grateful Dead, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Molly Hatchet (many of these were multiple times). Some of the places where these concerts took place: In NJ, Capitol Theatre; Garden State Arts Center; Six Flags Great Adventure; Convention Hall, Asbury Park; Mothers, Wayne; Meadowlands Arena; Fairleigh Dickinson University; Montclair State College... In NY, Madison Square Garden & the Nassau Coliseum... Awesome memories!

React to Lynyrd Skynyrd Free bird live in 1976 in England. They were specifically told not to walk on that catwalk which is supposed to look like a tongue for Mick Jagger to use exclusively. Of course Ronnie Van zant led all his guitarist down the catwalk/tongue when they started the guitar solos for song. You will LOVE IT !

Great reaction!! I love the song one of the best... always blows me away when younger people find old school music. Doesnt matter what genre... music was just more unique and talent back in the days. It so awesome when people stumble on the truly classics. Everyone have great day and share the music and smiles!!

I can't wait to get to a packed concert again. 1000 people trying to stand in the front row and jump :) Then the solo hits... Flyyyyy, freee biiird. Yea!

I loved your reaction!!!! So glad to see the younger generation appreciating this. You seem soooooo cool!

They were the King's of Southern Rock.... I recommend checking out them doing a song called That Smell

RIP to more than half the members including the lead singer who perished in the plane crash

Perhaps the greatest live performance by any band, ever.

No one was on their cellphone because the was no such thing in 77. I have seen them in concert year after year and still loving every minute of them

Skynyrd didn't need flashy gimmicks, they had pure, raw talent. You are right on, three lead guitars playing in sync like that is phenomenal. Greatest rock opus of all time. Call Me The Breeze is a good song for you next, or Simple Man. All their songs are exceptional.

REMEMBER 4 OF THEM PASSED IN THE FIERY PLANE CRASH, THAT'S THE LEADER OF THE BAND, RONNIE VAN ZANT :) R.I.P TO RONNIE AND THE OTHER 3 WHO PERISHED :( A 7 MAN BAND PINKY ;-)

Your reaction is priceless and fun to watch. Lynyrd Skynyrd are still mesmerising to watch and listen to after almost 50 years ...an amazing band

Lynyrd skynyrd. Bought their album first year out of high school 1976. Oct 20 1977. We lost them.

That final solo is called a "Triple-Guitar Attack" and was performed by Allen Collins (1st lead), Steve Gains (2nd Lead) and Gary Rossington (Slide and rhythm guitar). It's the only performance of its kind in the world.

3 Guitars, 1 Bass, Piano and Drummer AND a bunch of southern talent. Two of these folks are still alive, the red guitar player and the drummer. Skynyrd is still a band. They play the same old stuff with new folks and it still rocks. Johnny Van Zant is the current singer.

Incredible concert, GREAT reaction!!

They sounded like this because they practiced and jammed out for hours and hours a day. In a raggedy shack at first, till they could get into a studio. They could feel, like the Allman Brothers Band, where each other was going. Great reaction!

Man those were the days, we went to many concerts💃🎤 that's how we got to know our favorite bands. Truly some of the best day's of my life. ✌❤

Saw the original Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1975 with Charlie Daniels and Marshall Tucker. Best concert ever. Isn’t it amazing how different the crowds are then from now. We only had phones on the walls at home and we clapped and went crazy at concerts instead of having our phones in the air. Good times.

At that time, Skynyrd had three guitarists : original guitarists Allen Collins and Gary Rossington, and Steve Gaines, who had recently replaced Ed King. They also had Leon Wilkeson on bass guitar. Allen Collins is the one you noticed jamming on the solo. Sadly, Steve Gaines and his sister Cassie died in the plane crash, along with Ronnie Van Zant.

I remember driving when this song came on going faster and faster! Greatest!

Sadly this was the last time Lynyrd Skynyrd was filmed live and this was 3 months and 18 days before the plane crash just a few shows into the Street Survivors tour. This video is awesome but also sad as everyone on stage, with the exception of 2 people (the drummer and Gary Rossington one of the lead guitarists) are all now deceased. Some died in the plane crash, some survived with major injuries. Allen Collins had his car crash and died in 1990, the piano player and the bass player died later as they played in the reformed Lynyrd Skynyrd until their deaths.

Back in 70s they used to put microphones inside the drum heads to amplify. Made for such a thundering sound . This is a live song masterpiece. Every instrument and vocal was perfect. Slow build up to guitars being shredded!!!!!

She's the first one to watch the live performance and get a real feel for it.

Yes! This was at a time when musical and vocal skill and talent ruled the stage over looks, lights, smoke and glitz. Just music and positive energy. I miss this band. Once again, I love your reaction. This song is iconic!

Hi Mona - Looking beautiful as always. As a youngster, this was my first Southern Rock Band. This performance shows honest musicians at the peak of their greatness. I love your reaction!! So true!! 👍🏻✌🏼💯

One of the most heartbreaking days of my life and it was the only album I ever bought that had a sleeve in it with their tour dates... But they never came about😔

The greatest American rock and roll band for numerous reasons.

Saw them in Dallas in 1975 played back-to-back with Charlie Daniels Band. Both bands played together on stage. for about the last 40 minutes. What can I say? Saw them again in Mobile Alabama, 6 months before they went down. Best damn rock band in history, will never be surpassed ! God bless their souls and my beloved South!

Few years ago, him and I went to see Bob Segar for the last time in Virginia Beach. I mighta been the youngest person there, but older bands know how to play because they play for more than just money. I wish Lynyrd Skynyrd were still alive, I woulda given the world to see them in concert. Sadly, their plane crashed in October of the same year as this concert.

It always makes me smile when young people see crowds at concerts from back in the day and mention not seeing anyone recording with a phone. They don't seem to grasp the fact they weren't invented. They take so much for granted nowadays.

Pink, you need to see the performance of Free Bird when they opened for The Rolling Stones. Story is Mick Jagger told them not walk out on “the tongue” on the stage, which was shaped like The Rolling Stones emblem. Ronnie did it anyway.

100 % agree! This is sooo good but the Knebworth performance is even better and the solo goes longer.Allen really put that huge stage to good use and you get to see him do it..The camera work in this performance is in the crowd too much

I haven’t seen much of you lately. I miss your smiling face.

You have good taste, Lynyrd Skynyrd was one of the greatest bands that ever was. They were my first concert ever as a young 15 year old at the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland in 1976. I saw them almost a year to the day before they died in a plane crash.

yeah and just imagine that everyone of those young people at that concert is now old enough to be your grandparents. I know because that is my generation. it was a great time to be young and free. something most young people don't understand today.

your reaction was right on the money 100% such a beautiful woman you have everything going for you!😊😎😎😎

As amazing as this is, their performance at Knebworth is even greater.

The Convention Hall performance one week later 7/13/77 Ronnie let Allen play the solo even while longer I think that one’s even better though it’s a smaller, indoor venue

Not even close. Visually Knebworth is a better video but for shear musical brilliance nothing beats or comes close to this performance ever. Thats not even an opinion, its just a fact. . . . .period

It's so beautiful to see the free hippie come out of these young peps...this is when America was FREE

Just found your channel and I must say Skynyrd was one of the greatest Southern Rock bands in the world. May they Rest in Peace

Scary thing is,there are better versions of "Free Bird" live out there. This is good,but check out the one from England in '76 where the boys got Mick Jagger angry by stepping out on the Stone's tongue stage extension. Or for a real corker audio only,the one from the "One More From The Road" double live album is interstellar.

One More For The Road has the best live audio version, unfortunely no video

For me this version is better than Knebworth simply because the crowd enthusiasm. Pissing off Jagger in front of a barely conscious crowd doesn't make it better.

@@donpardo2510 That "barely conscious" crowd of 350,000 English fans,had been outside in the hot sun all day before Lynyrd Skynyrd took stage. But were all on their feet screaming & going wild before the end of Allen's unbelievable solo, which btw was longer & the film crew there totally locked in on the band so u missed nothing! No comparison!! Knebworth 1976 is the best recorded video of Freebird hands down.

@@donpardo2510 But it does add an amusement factor that elevates it to a plateau of its own! As they work their way out on the tongue-stage, summoned by Ronnie, I have to chuckle with satisfaction and approval. To me, that sealed their immortality.

Double trouble, on the hunt, and call me the breeze.

He telling people he's story. How he is free, a bird is free...I miss him so much. Rest bro your free.

The piano player Billy Powell, was working as a roadie for the band and one day in 1972, he sat down at a piano during a lunch break and played a piano-based version of this song. A few weeks later he was asked to join the band. He was a member until his death on January 28, 2009..
