And to think Billy wasn’t originally in the band. He was kinda hanging around and being a roadie and they heard him playing one night and one of them said maybe we need a piano player and Ronnie said we need that piano player. He is essential to that sound that is only lynyrd skynyrd and an unbelievable talent. I was lucky enough to meet him twice and those are in my top memories of my life.

"Tell it, tell it." He aint just talking about the ghetto. Ronnie going from macro to micro --- top to bottom --- its all corruption. The man was brilliant.

Man I've forgotten about this song. I hadn't heard this song in many of years. Things going on you don't know. Love it , lynyrd Skynyrd. #1🤗

"They better make some changes and do it soon!" So true Ronnie👍.

RIP mr Rossington

I would argue that "Pronounced" holds up right up there at or near the top of the list as one of the classic rock era's greatest debut albums by any band of the era. Just look at the list of hits that Pronounced spawned that remained staples of the live set even after the band reformed and went on in 1987 after the plane crash. I Ain't The One, Gimme Three Steps, Things Goin' On, Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone, & Free Bird all debuted from Skynyrd's Freshman effort in the studio, which is incredible if you start thinking how often many of those songs are still being played to this very day on FM Radio stations across the country, around the clock. My description of Skynyrd has always been "the greatest redneck, from the wrong side of the tracks orchestra" that rock has ever produced.

Well..... i will tell ya!!! He started out as a roadie, one night they set up at a club, had an old pianio in the back behind the stage!!! Of course a clasicly trained pianist, could not resist the urge!!!! Someone heard it and Told Ronnie and when Ronnie heard it he hired him on the spot!!!!

Brothers I was in art school, about 1978 Hooked up with my sweet Georgia peach Tammy. My God! Blue eyed, blonde haired, preacher's daughter. Yes sir, those hip hiphuggers and that halter top. Everything you have ever heard about the preacher's daughter is 100% true.

love how the bluesyness always had that hard rock feel to it - the bands that figured that out at the time are among the greatest ever - zeppelin, sabbath, scorpions, and of course the mighty Skynyrd

One of my favorite Skynyrd tunes, haven't heard it in years! Crazy how so many genres are covered in one song and arranged to sound so sweet! Kinda like something you would expect from a bayou tune with the piano, mixed with delta blues and slide that Gary made sound oh so fine... you guys are truly missed!

RIP Gary Rossington.... I'm an old fart. I have been trying to keep up with modern rock. Ghost and Volbeat are a couple of my favorites. In 2016 -17 suddenly the music they were playing on suck-ass 93.7 just started blowing! Have to drive 40 miles NE of MPLS to pick up 101.7 from Sauk Rapids to listen to a good rock station. Hearing this today reminded me how good us old farts had it in the 70s and 80s!! Effing Skynyrd is great!!

I have to rephrase my comment about growing up in the ghetto I never did and I guess it doesn't matter because Leonard Skinner was such a good band everybody loves them and they sang about real life I apologize to all you people that live in the ghetto and love them too I never lived in the ghetto close to it I've been homeless for a little bit but I was work harder the carpenter for 40 years and I'm 65 now and I still hate the day I woke up and I heard the news at the plane crash damn it there's so much good music left in them is it it's unreal again I apologize for any wrong words life is hard that is very hard for people that I put down because of no other reason but they live in the wrong place or this or that but these two ways that there for me to get money when I grow up either steal it or work I work because I don't want to go to jail I hate being in a cage I was for 10 days and that cured me

I like Johnny just fine , but it just ain't lynyrd skynyrd. Also i grew up trying to play guitar and everybody liked Collins and gaines but nobody gives rosington the credit he deserves. All those melodies are him. Those songs are all him with the other guys playing little solos here and there. Now that i can tell the difference between the sound of a gibson and a fender i can appreciate what a musical genius Gary Rosington is.
