Have you seen the '76 Knebworth show on youtube? The whole gig is absolute fire. I'm not the hugest LS fan, but that show is really worth a watch.

 

I can't do Freebird though... have to skip it.

 

This sh*t right here is killin' though... Steve Gaines is almost Duane-like.

Yeah, I love that. Almost everyone I interact with are either Miles Davis or Classical aficionados. Miles Davis didn`t do much in his later on.."Merp". I appreciate Steve and his classical sense, but I can`t relate to it much. I try, and he tries to talk to me about it..uhuh..uhuh..I can`t even read music like he does.I`m just a lowly, mostly self taught person. Not much to brag about.

Apparently, I don't speak alcohol, cause I have no idea what any of the above has to do with Skynyrd :lol: :lol: :lol:

Went to several of those when I was a kid in the 70s

 

Tickets were $11.

First outdoor big name concert I attended featured L.S. and ZZ Top as the headliner on their "World Wide Texas Tour" in 1976.

 

While I think LS had their moments, I genuinely love the snot out of ZZ Top... everything from the 1st album right up to Eliminator is pure greasy, bluesy, funky Texas greatness.

Frampton claims he's retiring' date=' due to health issues now.[/quote']

 

He has a degenerative muscle disease that will soon make it impossible for him to play guitar :cry:

 

Framton is an absolute sweetheart of a human being, a helluva rock guitarist and a pretty dang decent songwriter. I'm a huge Humble Pie fan, in particular.

LS- very few moments.

ZZ Top goes to the mountain top and delivers the goods every time.

 

Here's the only Skynyrd tune I can listen to and actually enjoy:

This, Three Steps, T for Texas, The Breeze... they're all basically the same tune, but I like the tune :D

The Breeze is a great tune. I remember the guy who wrote it died a few years ago. He was either local or regional because it was on the news. Apparently a lot of "other people" wrote those songs.
