    Three months after this performance, their plane ran out of fuel, 15 minutes from their destination. Several members of the band, including Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gains, and Cassie Gains were killed, along with several members of the crew. They were one of the best live bands, ever. Three guitars, one piano, one bass, and a madman drummer, all working together in perfect harmony.

    I was at this concert at the Oakland Coliseum July 2, 1977. It was one of a series of summer concerts there every year called "Day on the Green", organized and promoted by Bill Graham, a legendary promoter who was responsible for most concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area in those days. Graham brought all the great bands to the Bay Area. Every week of the year some top band was playing somewhere in the area. Ticket prices ranged from about $6-$12. This day there were 4 bands, with The Outlaws opening the show, followed by Santana, then Lynyrd Skynyrd, and finally Peter Frampton.

    I'm a black guy who grew up with a varied eclectic taste in music from Calypso, Soca, Reggae, Hip Hop, Rock/Heavy Metal/Alternative, R&B, Classical, some pop etc....but even though this song was before my time, I have always rated this song as among the top 3 best songs in the history of humankind alongside music gems such as Beethoven's 'Symphony #9 - Ode To Joy', The Beatles "Hey, Jude", Suzanne Vega's "Luca", Bob Marley's "No Woman No Cry", Nivana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", Guns N' Roses "Sweet Child Of Mine" and "November Rain", Tupac Shakur''s "Dear, Mama", Biggie Smalls "Warning", Janet Jackson's "Rythm Nation", Michael Jackson's "Thriller", Supercat and Nocodemus's "Cabin Stabbin" and so much more on my personal list. Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Freebird" is a masterpiece of what human culture has produced in music. An absolute masterpiece.

    God, the 70’s were such an amazing time to be alive. Everything was better, especially humans. Looking at the young people in the crowd with no phones and just wrapping their arms around strangers brings me warm memories. The song is mainly about what it means to fly free and for me (and for people who grew up in those days), this takes us back to such a great time where today’s generations will never know what it was like to grow up before all the BS that social media and the internet took over and has divided us. Free Bird will forever be my favorite song. Fly high Lynyrd Skynyrd! ❤

Glad you chose this version it caught the spirit of the crowd and you could see the band better in the sunlight than the live 1976 concert which sounded great but it was getting dark so you couldn't see as well. Only thing I'd change in this footage is to show more of the guitar solo. Oh and that was a rattlesnake skin around his hat. I grew up with plenty of rattlesnakes around my hometown of Medicine Hat.

    An amazing band that lineup left us too soon due to a plane crash taking the singer, a guitarist the guitarist singer and backup singer. I think the crash was shortly after this performance. They were one of the biggest bands in the 1970s and at their peak when the plane crash happened. Their other big hit is Sweet Home Alabama but they have so many great songs. Tuesday's Gone, Saturday Night Special, Gimme Back My Bullets, Gimme Three Steps, T For Texas, The Ballad of Curtis Loew. They were a Southern Rock band originally from Jacksonville, Florida if I am not mistaken.

    This is the best performance of "Freebird". It really shows how great each member really was. Shows off Billy Powell's classical piano training and how the "3 Guitar Army" of Allen Collins, Gary Rossington, and Steve Gaines can jam together as one entity, and don't forget Leon Wilkeson on bass. And driving everything is Artimus Pyle on drums. Lead singer Ronnie Van Zant was at the top of his game and never sounded better. Even the back-up singers, JoJo Billingsly, Leslie Hawkins, and Cassie Gaines are just amazing. They are all gone now except for Artimus who is still rockin' out with his own band and playing many of Skynyrd's old standards in tribute to his fallen brethren.

    Lynard Skynard is one of a few very popular "Southern Rock" bands. This particular performance is a bit comical in the "Confederate" stage set. You recognized the Mount Rushmore image, but probably didn't notice that only the two "Southerners", George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were included. It's my understanding that the band was not aware of what the stage set would be before the concert. Another "southern Rock" favorite is the Allman Brothers band.

    Sadly, this is one of their last performances before the plane crash. Singer Ronnie Van Zant asks the question "if I leave here tomorrow, will you still remember me?". Little did he know that the entire WORLD still remembers him almost 50 years later! Yes Ronnie. We definitely remember you! RIP Ronnie, Steve, Cassie, Allen, Billy, Artimus, Leon, and Gary. You are all legends.

    A truly great epic song. Excellent musicianship. This was the summer after I graduated from college, and although I was not a huge fan, there's no question that this song is in a league of its own. I do have to question the Confederate flag at the back of the stage. That wouldn't be there today.

    That's the "chirpy bird" sound you can produce while playing guitar with a slide. I believe it was pioneered by Duane Allman, and became a staple. Because it's fun to do! fun fact: Gary replaced the b string on this SG with a second g string- just for the slide part in this song. That way, he could cock the slide a bit, and get that signature sound you hear in the slide parts. If you'd seen them before, you knew what was coming when you saw Gary pick up that red guitar, lol. He normally played a Les Paul. If you like this, check them out in 1976 at Knebworth Faire, in England. Opening for the Rolling Stones in front of a crowd of 350,000 or so people. They were on FIRE. I'd recommend their covers of Gimme a T for Texas, (If you want to see what Steve could do!) and/or Crossroads.

    That concert was about 3 months before the plane crash… I seen them 3 times before that horrible day that some of them died. So any Lynyrd Skynyrd songs 1977 or earlier is from this band. There is a modern day Lynyrd Skynyrd band that the lead singer is the younger brother of the one that passed in the plane crash. He has been singing about 35 years and they are touring with ZZ Top and I just seen them a couple of weeks ago.

    I got a chance to see a group called the Outlaws live - similar type of music. The energy from their live version of Green Grass and High Tides has a similar vibe. There is a live version "Outlaws - Green Grass And High Tides - 11/10/1978 - Capitol Theatre" that I would recommend checking out - but be warned, it's 23+ minutes!!! :)

    Lynyrd Skynyrd was from the deep South - Jacksonville, Florida and they championed the 'Southern rock' sound which mixed country w/ rock music, debuting in 1973... They were also famous for their 3-guitar line-up that made them a live attraction on tour. The band named themselves after a high school teacher that they actually hated - Leonard Skinner 😂 Tragically, none of the original members are alive today and Lynyrd Skynyrd will be remembered for the tragic 1977 plane crash that killed their lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, one guitarist Steve Gaines and his sister Cassie Gaines, one of their backing singers... (They were in this clip) The other members seen here were - Allen Collins (guitar), Gary Rossington (slide guitar), Billy Powell (piano), Leon Wilkeson (bass) and Artimus Pyle (drums)... Only Artimus Pyle (ex-drummer) is alive today after surviving the plane crash. The others passed away in the years afterwards... Original members Bob Burns (drums) and Ed King (guitar) passed away and Gary Rossington, the last original member, passed away recently. The classic Lynyrd Skynyrd w/ singer Ronnie Van Zant released 5 studio albums in the 70's and 1 live album 'One more from the road'... The live version of 'Freebird' is considered one of their greatest songs... Other classics include - 'Sweet home Alabama' ... 'That smell' ... 'Simple man' ... "What's your name" ... 'Gimme three steps'... 🔥 In 1987, an agreement was reached w/ Ronnie Van Zant's widow Judy (who owns the rights to the name Lynyrd Skynyrd) to reunite the band only if 3 original members r in the band to tour and record new music ... Ronnie's younger brother Johnny Van Zant joined as the new singer of Lynyrd Skynrd til today... Gary Rossington, Billy Powell, Leon Wilkeson, Ed King and Artimus Pyle were all involved (Guitarist Allen Collins was paralyzed in a car accident and passed away in 1990) However, more members left the band or passed away... but Lynyrd Skynyrd was still in demand because of their legacy of music, so new members were brought in to tour... Guitarist Gary Rossington passed away in 2023, being the only original member left alive til then and he had kept Lynyrd Skynyrd active. The band plans to continue touring w/ singer Johnny Van Zant, guitarist Ricky Medlocke and others.

    I saw Lynyrd Skynyrd in 1977. The concert that you played here was on my birthday in '77. I don't think that the stadium is staying there after this season. There is no longer a Pro Football, Basketball or Baseball team in Oakland after 2024. All of the professional teams moved to other cites. The football team is in Las Vegas now, and the Oakland Athletics' baseball team's lease ends after the 2024 season, which is where that concert was held. The baseball team applied to move to Las Vegas as well. I saw them play in Lexington, Kentucky in May of that same year. Three of those guys died in a plane crash in Mississippi in October of 1977, that same year. That haunted me for a couple of years afterward.
