Hughie was a fantastic picker. R.I.P.

Hughie. Such a blinding technique.when he left skynyrd ... I knew they couldn't find a guitarist as good as he was..unique..rip...Mr. Thommason

HT is awesome and I don't understand why the Outlaws are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

RIP Gary! Your music will live on for a very long time🕊️

Huige was one of the best guitarist I've ever heard .

Ricky was smooth and brutal, love it

RIP Gary and Hughie

You guys were the most awesome rockers ever, just incredible, you are loved ❤ and greatly missed 😢.

Hughie is THE MAN!! PERIOD!!!

Hughie I pray that God has a place in his orchestra just for you!!!! When I get there I would love to join you in a jam session!!!

Hughie is miles above the other 2! But then the outlaws were incredible!

If this was a contest, Hughie won this one. That bluegrass meets hard rock melodic picking beats the other two any day. Rickey's solo was still good though.

"Remember, kid, there's heroes and there's legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. Follow your heart, kid, and you'll never go wrong."

THIS WAS STRAIGHT AWESOME !! GOTTA LOVE IT ALL.

I'm fond of many guitarist, Gary being #1 over and above all! But wow! Hughie really showed me a thing or two!

Hughie && Billie ... and Duane && Dickie ... The best of the best .

Love the backdrop on stage!!

So very clear to me that H.T. was getting gary real nervous at this massive "outlaws" talent~love he got gght & some other "outlaws" riffs in before he was silenced~the best by far~Hughie forever!

What the fuck was Gary doing? Long live to Hughie! \m/

All three have different ranges of playing the guitar great sounds God Bless R I P Hughie thanks to all of you.

Hughie was a genius. Would have loved to see him and Steve Gaines do something.

HUGHIE!!!! ONCE A OUTLAW ALWAYS A OUTLAW!!!!!

Gary sounds like me attempting to impress my friends after polishing off a pack of Grain Belts…

To this day Hughie is King

ricky's tone kills!!

ricky medlock rules!!!!!!!!!!..

Seen many iterations of the skynyrd boys. 15 shows since 1991. I never witnessed anything like this at any of them.

So glad to be alive!!!❤️😎

HUGHIE BY A MILE

No Matter, They're ALL GOOD

Imagine Hughie, Allen Collins and Billy Jones in that Ghost riders Band up in the sky 🏆🏆🏆

dude, these are the best southern rock guitarists ever!!, im 15 and I like lynyrd skynyrd, i wish i grew up in the 70s, music was better then, some music now is crap, gary makes rough picking sound amazing, hes very classical, hes my favorite, hughie awesome, loved the ghost riders in the sky, and rickey shredding it.

Old school...old. And verry good sound....

Amo a Gary y es uno de mis musicos favoritos, pero este live no le hizo justicia , Hughie podria decir se lucio tocando sus mejores canciones de los outlaws y sin duda es un gran guitarrista !!! junto con Billy Jones tienen todo mi respeto y admiración.. punto aparte lo que hubiera sido si Allen y Steve hubieran estado vivos, sin duda hubiera sido magico.

U got that right damn they got a southern flag behind them

I loved when Hughie and Billy Jones would harmonize guitars in the Outlaws.

I'm an Outlaws fans so I have to put HT at the top...probably would even if I wasn't....But Gary's tone is , and has always been awesome!

Hughie was a badass...........

Gary went outta his comfort zone for this 1...stick to what you know sorta deal cuz he’s a phenomenal guitarist...hughie, ever since I heard green grass and high tides I knew he was a god damn incredible gunslinger along with billy Jones...and Rickey medlocke is hands down the best musician in skynyrd to date...plays just about everything and shreds on guitar like no other...skynyrds always had the best 3 guitar attack and it still rings true

Man I love Gary but he couldn't hold a candle here to either Hughie or Ricky. Man that Strat sound though.

Dam NICE, Guitar Heaven!

4:00 Green Grass and High Tides?

What a great guitar player

Imagine if Allen Collins were up there! Man oh man!!

I never got to see Lynyrd Skynyrd. The plane went down less than a week before they were to play in Chattanooga. I was fortunate to see Allen, Gary, and Billy Powell play in the Rossington Collins Band.

Thank you, Nice video, I like :) Pianist Kiyoshi from Japan. I subscribed your nice channel.

Rickey Medlocke is really quite a colossal 6 foot 2 inch tall Native American Indian man.

Gary's great too

You got the guys who played the solos on the three greatest guitar solos in Southern Rock here, Gary who obviously played on Free Bird, Hughie's relentless shredding and wonderful singing on Green Grass and High Tides and Ricky's face melting leads in Highway Song. Lets not forget where Hughie and Ricky came from, they are truely amazing singers and guitarists. Rock On.

Gary was never about speed, just taste and feel. Dude is getting up there, but still kickin'

This unusual to hear solos like this the original Skynyrd never did any.

WOW!!!

Not gonna lie. That 96 lineup was badass!

Step aside, Hughie is here Damn Rickey! Gary is too cool.

Man, That's the Way We PlaY!

We all know the answer to the question. YES WE WILL REMEMBER YOU.

Shoot....Medlock was the best of these...still Collins was unbelievable. Sorry he left us so soon.

sweet

i am soo out of the loop. i just found out that huey passed! Been mourning all week! and i live in brooksville. My heart goes out to you Mary. Sorry for the way you have been treated. Karma will catch up.

What a dangerous trio . I have often wonder, with Hughie and Rickey if they ever as they toured with the LSB that they did not include songs in the set list of LSB , from the Outlaws and Blacksnake their respectable catalogs when playing live ?

Gotta say Rick is good too

Fucking awesome.

@muscletruckdude No, Allen played a 58 Gibson Explorer. Rickey also has a 58 Gibson Explorer, however look at the headstock around 5:39, its his Ibanez Destroyer. In the 70's, Ibanez made a bunch of Explorer and Les Paul copies (Known as the lawsuit era). They were pretty much identical with the exception of the name.

Gary rossington: ngilu Hughie thomasson: acoustic Rickey medlocke: rock

Why does it appear that there’s a backing track and they’re not actually playing?? I hope I’m wrong.

Good morning to all.. How's Gary ? Sinceheart incident?

Hughie!!!!!! Goddam that strat was hot…..

ghost riders in the sky!

All three kicked butt imo

Banda Boa porreta

Hughie kicked it in this one, Gary sucked, and Medlocke was really sloppy, best performance quality of skynyrd is definitely when Hughie was there.

sorry I had to come across this one. guess I'll need to hunt down another rossington vid that will redeem this one.

GARRY is e MAN!!!

saved the best for last!!

did ricky inherit allen collins's explorer? its even got the same bridge

Best lineup since the Original.

I know it ... Thank you friend of mine

Got to give it to Huey with the melodies

Nice! WooF!!

gary has to be wrecked!

Lynyrd Skynyrd is the Best American Band. Their music is the soul of this nation.

Hughie . no contest .

@muscletruckdude In isnt Allens actual guitar. They both played explorers in the 70's

AMAZING, LYNYRD SKYNYRD WILL ALWAYS KICK ASS! MAY THE DINOSAURS RULE THE WORLD FOREVER.

Alan Collins watch the man rip

Man, that first bit sounded like two whales on crack going at it. HT can really play.

Hughie blew em away.. just think what would have been if he had joined Skynyrd in the early years...But, Im happy with what he put up in The Outlaws, Never would of been if he had joined Skynyrd....I like Gary and even a corporate Rickey.. But The Flash was THE man.There was no one that compared to Hughie,Billy Jones and Allen Collins. And NO ONE will. RIP gentlemen. Rickey was using Gary's axe btw.And ,still couldn't touch Allen's playing. Either way, enjoy the remaining above ground, cause there will be NO ONE to follow after these boys are gone.. Enjoy these times. When these guys are gone, a whole genre will disappear. Its called southern rock for those who are to stupid to know. Thank you gentlemen for remembering the music. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!

HT smoked it hot

1. Ed King 2. Steve Gaines 3. Allen Collins 4. Gary Rossington

First one from Gary had resemblance to Gary Richrath from REO.

Is that his explorer from way back in the day at the end?

Whatever Gary Rossington did in the first 1 minute of that solo - it has Duane Allman rolling in his grave - just fucking awful.

Ht wow...

man I miss HUGHIE something B A D ......

Gary was feeling a little too good that night.

NO CONTEST

As a Guitarist i would say Hughie had the best style, Allen Collins was the best Technician and Dave Hlubek (Molly Hatchet)was the best shredder. Rip to All

ru drunk gary?

@sanch1972 Damn right!

Richard still had alil bit of real estate up front back yonner 😆
