Summary:
By the time Lynyrd Skynyrd played this sold-out show at San Francisco's Winterland ballroom, they had become the unmistakable kings of Southern Rock. Spearheaded by charismatic frontman, Ronnie Van Zant, the group had taken southern boogie from the swamps and brought it to the masses.
There is an enormous amount of energy and power in the multiple guitar mix of the band, and that is clearly apparent when they launch into solos on these songs. The group had built a solid following via AOR radio by 1975, and songs like "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Free Bird" had given the band enormous crossover appeal. The group was coming off two hugely successful albums, its debut (pronounced leh-nerd skin-nerd) and 1974's Second Helping, and they had recently replaced original drummer Bob Burns with Artimus Pyle.
This show was recorded during the band's tour promoting their 1975 album, Nuthin' Fancy, and it features Lynyrd Skynyrd at the top of their game. It was also one of the last shows featuring their original three-guitar lineup, as Ed King left the band midway through the tour. Skynyrd confidently played its brand of riff-driving Southern fried rock boogie to near capacity crowds on this entire '75 tour.
Poignant songs like "The Needle And The Spoon" are balanced against established Skynyrd rockers such as "Saturday Night Special" and "Gimmie Three Steps." Songs like "Whiskey Rock-A-Roller", J.J. Cale's "Call Me The Breeze", and "Sweet Home Alabama" are played here in their early forms-many of these classics would re-emerge as part of the must-do repertoire of so many country artists.
The band ends the show with a predictable but crowd-pleasing, version of its radio anthem, "Free Bird." Sadly, the band would change drastically when some of its members, including lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, would die in a plane crash two years after this show was recorded.

The other 3 are tied foe second but if I had to pick a second clearly Ed King was the one and he too is underrated. Now Gary and Steve could just as easily carry this band. But Allen is still incredible and like Ronnie no Ronnie no Skynyrd no Allen same thing he’s that vital to Skynyrd’s incredible sound!

    One of the best concerts i had the Honor of attending was at the Nashville fairgrounds in the summer of 1973! Skynyrd was the warm-up band for ZZ Top. One of the band members tore their t-shirt into strips,they all tied on headbands and marched out to the Confederate taps beat. One would go left next one to the right. A grand entrance of showmanship. From the first note they were Smoking Hot ( so tight)!! They only had Pronounced out but Ronnie introduced us to a bunch of New songs off Second Helping ; our New album out soon". This was my first of many concerts and 50 years of listening & singing along. Have to thank my buddies Mike & Gary for inviting me to go along that Sunday. A shout out to my 93 yr. Old Mother who would play their music while riding in the car; D.J. would turn to me and say...... They are so tight! Yes, I would respond with a shit eaten 😁 on my face. Knowing I had one Cool Mother who appreciated Lynyrd Skynyrd like me and All my friends till this day! D. J. 's in heaven now listening to Elvis, Eagles and SKYNYRD!

    You are being cheated, we all are today. I'm blessed to experience the artists in 1970s-80s as a growing child, but now see we were being led away from families, jobs and farms by those promoting and using these talented amazing artists as lures of influence, that's why I think Ronnie was replaced by Johnny and changed spirit of band, similar to Bon Scott replaced in 1981 for his song Beating Around The Bush on Highway to Hell album. John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley had no bands to replace them and could carry on without them during those days of changes.

    Way before 24/7 cable as we just had maybe 3 or 4 channels on the TV. Me and my best friends were playing poker one night as we were just 18 as we saw on the TV a photo of Skynyrd, we had to wait to see what happened as we waited until the news came on. When the news came on they reported Skynyrd’s plane crash, but that’s all they said and later they gave us terrible news. There were not many channels on the TV and No Mobile phones. When the 10 pm news came on as we were devastated to hear the news! 😔 We were all stunned as they were our favorite band for sure! We were at least blessed to have seen the original Skynyrd 6 times in concert as they came to Mobile and Pensacola all of their tours! I still crank Skynyrd all the time!

    No filters, nothing but some minor PA feedback, and Ronnie singing "ON THE HUNT" like a man possessed with that hypnotic descending bass line.He sounds better than Joplin for sure, and doesn't miss a note, high or low. What a powerful set. Jeez, they were beginning to soar at Winterland. By 77 and by bringing in Steve Gaines they went to another stratosphere. What a short time they were there. A band soaked in talent built around the songwriting and singing of one man who just stood there. He did not need to dance around. He cannot be replaced by a brother, or anyone. He was Ronnie Van Zant. He was Lynyrd Skynyrd.

That was also before Gaines joined the band, after that Ronnie was re-inspired with Gaines on board. It also had nothing to do with him being "bored", it was because the alcohol-driven lifestyle of Skynyrd had started to take its toll on Ronnie's health and also because he wanted more time to spend with his daughter. Learn your facts before making a fool out of yourself.

I wouldn't mind playing somethin like that man, bring some Hendrix up and s9me new shit

    Where I went to high school in Marin across the bridge from San Francisco, southern rock was huge! A bunch of us girls would take the bus over to the city, get dropped off on VanNess & Geary and walk up to the venue, Winterland. Then we’d walk back down to catch the bus back to Marin. Those were the fuckin’ days. My dad was a cop in the city and he thought this was ok. Never could do that now a days. Blessed to grow up where & when I did. Saw so many epic shows!! God Bless, Bill Graham!! 🎶

    I was at this show and have managed to remember quite a few things, First, during "I Ain't the one" Ronnie walked toward the front of the stage Spinning the mic as a HUGE Confederate Flag unfurled in the background, 2) I can still see all of the young ladies in the crowd up on the shoulders of the guys during Free Bird.... After that, the band walked off stage and a few of the band members emerged (either after Free Bird or the Encore) to tell the crowd that they "Had played everything they knew how w/o Billy, because he cut his hand"...Then last year the band (What is left of it) played in S.D. at Humphrey's by the Bay, I showed up and waited in the Parking lot with a guitar I wanted Gary to sign. As the show ended and the guys streamed past me on the way to their bus/van, I asked Gary to sign and he kept walking. So I said "Aw C'mon man!, I was at the Winterland show where Billy did not play because of a cut on his hand"...Gary stopped looked at me and said, "You were at that show"? "Yes" I replied. "You came out and told the crowd you had played everything you could w/o BP" he smiled at me and signed my guitar

    Actually I love Lynyrd Skynyrd and always have but my favorite all American band is The Carter Sisters with Mother Maybelle with or without Chet Atkins. I discovered them thanks to the Railroad song and searched for Jimmy Rogers videos, it's a long story but I bought everything I could find that they recorded and their legacy and body of work is amazing. Awesome talent.. Fly on Freebird I will always love RVZ and company and they are my second favorite band, but The "Girls" were planting the roots of American R & R years ago when they were touring America in the 40s and 50s especially with Chet Atkins on lead guitar. Helen accordion, Anita on Bass, Mother Maybelle on rhythm and lead guitar and the first real "front man" or women in this case June Carter... Their lead and harmony vocals are unique and unmatched. I have 35, 15 minute shows from their 1949 KWTO Springfield Missouri radio show. They were cutting edge for the day. They were drawing thousands to live shows all over. And not only that but these Sisters were beautiful!! Elvis opened for them in 1955 and was smitten with the beautiful Anita Carter

    I love the fact that Ed King plays 4 different guitars and fills in piano solos because Billy Powell had hurt his hand! That's the theory.(love Ed's slide guitar work) Ed sings backup vocals on Whisky Rock and Roll, Gimme 3 Steps, Don't Ask Me No Questions, Sweet Home Alabama. I love the original line up the best but Gaines was great and a great addition. I would of liked to see what they would of recorded if not for the obvious! Long Live Skynyrd, Fly that Confederate Flag Proudly! Gary and Allen and Ed were very special and never duplicated (The Original 3 guitar attack) Check out the sustain Gary uses out of his 1959 Les Paul and his amp at 28:40 ... This version of "Call Me the Breeze" kicks azz You can hear Ed on a Les Paul playing fill in licks and adds a great solo to go along with Gary's great solo and Allen playing rhythm. Wow no piano but the 3 guitar attack kills.. Ed Kings fill in leads on Sweet Home Alabama and Freebird are epic I ran lights and helped on sound for my brothers R&R bands as we were growing up Check Ronnie at 30 seconds into the show he looks over and motion thumbs up. He was telling the sound man to turn up the monitors so he could hear himself sing . Only roadies and band members understand that.lol

    I saw Skynyrd in January of 1976, with the Outlaws opening. I believe that Ed King had already left. It was one of the stand out concerts I went to. Ronnie VanZant was always in control, on stage. He had an impeccable sence of timing. A very tight band. Any concert footage, no sloppiness, or screwups. The concert sounds were as good as the vinyl sounds. I don't know of any groups that had that ability. Skynyrd died when Ronnie did. What a loss.

Ronnie was like the Ultimate Orchestra Leader.. He oversaw everything happening on stage. IMHO, Skynyrd was at its BEST when Steve Gaines joined. My Lord.. The connection, intuition and love those three guitarists had with each other and Ronnie.. It was Spiritual!

    Absolutely the saddest thing, Ronnie's death. I was only 11, and knew nothing of LS at this age, but was shocked to learn lately, that had he lived, he would be close to my dad's age now around 74. I see Ronnie and MELT. 😁 We can only imagine the wonderful songs, RVZ, would've written, had he lived. Judy, Ronnie's widow, sobbed during the memorial dedication, when she recalled, how Ronnie, always referred to himself, as an Alabama man, which was weird, since he was from Florida, so his death in Alabama, was a tragic tie in to this. Judy said, she came to get him there to bring him home for the last time, and some 40 years later, you could still feel all the pain!

In the tribute band, we saw a kinder, gentler version of Ed, and further refinement of his talent. Liked Ed's solo following Gary's slide on Free Bird. Ed, Gary, and Allen were my favorite three guitarists in the band. They wrote the book on how to play without stepping on each other and they were the masters of that art. Where's the time machine?

Im only 40 years old but since I could walk I listened to my dad jam to them. He told me son this is more than just music its magical! Hearing Ronnie and the rest of the band has got me through some life changing events in my life challenges most will never imagine. When I felt low down in life I would listen and get lost in the music. I'm disabled become disabled at 24 years old from lupus mixed convective tissue disease a heart issue and other things. I remember a time I was in very bad shape as I layer there they played one of my favorite songs by them but I love them all! It was all I can do is write about it. And to that song I reacted and opened my eyes everone was happy. As well I had a friend a brother was in 20.s on life support played free bird for him and with almost 0 brain activity moved his hand to it. If I was not so poor and have children at home and a wife stays home to help me each day I would love to have something he held had even a autograph would mean everything to me before The Good Lord calls me home. Just a dream I have id take it over a car and my car is old a 02 needs lot of work. So that really shows how special they are to me. I always wanted to go to the crash site to there Graves or by his old home never got to. But I did get close to hell house area once we're it stood and walk on the dock were Ronnie fished! A newer dock is over the original but man o man you talk about tears and the hair stand up! So much magic was made there.

I know no man shall no the time or hour or day of His return but He did give us things to watch for. I don't no were to begin really for example in the Kjv Bible God let Daniel interpret the kings dream of the statue he tells Him he is the head of solid gold. But others will come after as explained. All the way down to the feet of iron and clay. And I truly no in my heart we are the feet of iron and clay we are so devided and the world so evil! Yes we have had ww1 ww2 and wars and awful stuff before now but nothing ever were so many sighns are fulfilled as in now. So many things in just the Book of Mathew and Revelation that is going on now. We see such evil look just from say the 50.s to the 70.s when Ronnie was here all the way up into around mid 90.s I seen it get much worse. People are lovers of money they don't love or help each other in anyway as they use to not with just financial needs not what I'm saying but love care so on. Jesus tells us not to worry what we will eat tomorrow or were so on because He no.s all are needs Before we even do He is with you and me this minute Brother! Amen so so uplifting to no your a Brother in Christ so happy to see you love God as well and saved. Because so many are lost! So sad The Bible speaks of the road to Hell is wide and the road to Heaven narrow and few will find it. We are getting ready to enter a war I believe Armageddon in my heart. We are seeing some serious season changes and ppl look to globe warming and thinking how to fix it. What it is is God's will we will not no are own seasons and we can't change His will. We see pestilence as well at the same time we see famine in the world and more in the u.s each day. And so much more to come and fast! The seasons are changing so much we don't no them as we use to again and im only 40. Church parking lots are more empty each day because each generation don't have Trust Faith and Love in God or no Him! We see fualse profits and wow there are so many. In Revelation Jesus gave John so many things to watch for and I truly see so much. Again I feel He could Return any time. We do not no how much we will see before His children are Rapture out of this world to meet Him in the sky. And sadly ones dont no Him will be fooled by fualse God He gave us sighns saying if they say he is in a secret chamber or other places do not believe. I truly think we as well as Jerusalem are going to be under attack soon as well sadly Churches lately and Christians are starting to be targeted I have been watching closely. But God told us these times must come but us that are persecuted in His name will be rewarded Amen! As well I see a cashless world coming and that will lead to the mark of the beast. No marks in my right hand or forhead. But Brother you really put a smile on my face today and I much needed that! Thank you! God helps us that love and believe to help each other as you did me. I truly needed that today I have many health problems and having new ones I was up and down all night as well just going through so much pain and other things today. But it's God's will I cant question Him why I'm nobody to do that I just trust in Him. Thank you again as well for prayers so very much! The enemy is so hard at work and wants to see us down and hurt and sick and do without as well wants us to stress of having it hard to provide for are loved ones. The enemy loves to watch us worry with fear but forget about Faith in God! Im so sorry this was long but God let me get this from you and you helped me Brother thank you! As well yes man o man Skynyrd was so real so much heart Ronnie Cassie Steve as well all of them. They was and still are the best rock band ever and yes there is other greats for sure. But Skynyrd has really touched my heart so many times in my life. What I would give to been around to seen them live! Sounds like your a little older than me but probably remember the crash when it happened. You lived in a good time my friend again im 40 was born 82 so 5 years after the crash. Thank you so much again for the message! And mostly Prayers the Power of Prayers are strong! I will Pray for you as well Brother in anyway you may need.
