The thing I really like about the solo at the end is it isn't simply instrument, it is actually telling the second half of the story. The first part of the song is explaining to his girl he he needs to be free. He finally breaks it off with her, and flies free, and that is when the solo starts, that is what his freedom sounds like. That is how I see it anyway.

80?? how come you took your foot off the pedal?? Only joking. Different speed limits in the UK, 70 the limit on major roads so a lot cruise at 80. With one eye on speed cameras, naturally. I did live in the US for a while over 40 years ago and remember the freeway limit being either 50 or 55 which did seem slow. Never forget returning from a Jackson Browne concert at Rosemont Horizon, Chicago with friends in their camper van. The driver lit a joint and next thing we were hurtling down the freeway. I'm busy saying prayers. The driver did spot a police car ahead, he slammed on the brakes, his spliff out the window and fortunately we returned home slow and safe.

The Best Version is them playing Live in Knebworth, England in 1976. They opened for the Rolling Stones. The stage was shaped like a Big Red Tongue and Mic Jagger had told all the other bands to stay off of the tongue and that it was reserved for the Stones. During " Free Bird ", Ronnie leads the 3 guitarists down onto the tongue where they burned the place down. Mic Jagger was pissed and said L S would never open for the Stones again. When they came back to the U S, a reporter asked Ronnie why did he disobeyed Jagger's request. Ronnie replied, " I just wanted to prove the wrong band opened that day and we did ".

This came out the year I graduated from high school, 1973. My group of friends used to hang out in the neighborhood park in Brooklyn, NY with a circle of boom boxes (they were popular back then, some taking a dozen D batteries) and when this came on the radio we all turned them up blasting loud. I always loved this song, just because of the feel of it. I still love it after all these years. I'm glad to see younger folks enjoying the stuff from the past. "Hold On Loosely" by 38 Special is another great southern rock song you might enjoy. It doesn't have the wow factor of this song, but it's still an excellent song in my opinion.

I have seen this band about a dozen times since the seventies... you have no idea how amazing these guys are

It is completely fair to give this song a second reaction and do one of the 1970s LIVE versions. Just WATCH these guys rock out on those solos... its impressive with studio sound... but to do THAT on stage, LIVE... it was mindbending energy.

SRV might want to set his beer down too for a couple of minutes and jump into this little guitar excellence jam. RIP to both.

Had front row seats ( Milwaukee) ‘74 and to see these 3 guitars going after it was amazingly. Hard to explain what it was to see what they could do together was amazing. Some of the riffs were performed by all 3 in unison. A Southern Rock Masterpiece.

Loved listening to Free Bird again with you guys jamming, but man...Asia can sing something incredible. I need to check out Asia play list cause that was awesome.

Such a massive iconic song from one of the greatest bands of all time. Thank you for the reaction!

Best Southern Rock ever! I live in the same town they were raised in. High school buddy's. Named their band after their high school coach, Leonard Skinner. I go visit their graves sometimes. They wrote all their own music. I'm so happy you young kids love my generation music.

Amazing band, hugely great songs. Saw them live 2 times. Free Bird was a party in itself. Ask anyone who was there 😁

He went from Mourning Dove to Peregrine Falcon. Yes, you definitely need to see their live performance at the Oakland Coliseum

Yes on the Cleveland live version!!! Part of the timelessness of this is just the honesty and then, of course, the WTF solo that no one else could ever do as he did.

Imagine you are in an old school Mustang with the top down, cruisin' in a world with no cell phones, no internet, no 24 hour tv, disconnected from the world with just your friends in the car jamming to music like this, Zeppelin, The Stones, Pink Floyd, The Who, Black Sabbath etc. We were free as birds back then in our youth. Totally different world. Everything was raw and real. No digital touch ups. No auto tune, just young people with talent on instruments. Amazing simple time back then. Glad you enjoyed it. To some of us that lived it, it was a joy to see people react to this music.

A great reaction to a great song. Love seeing people hear it for the 1st time. You should react to the live version from Oakland 1977, 3 months before the plane crash that took 3 band members live's. An EPIC performance.

Lynyrd Skynyrd has three lead guitars not just one, That's why there is so much sound, Garry Rossingtom lead guitar and slid, Allen Collins lead Guitar, Steve Gaines lead Guitar,, Leon Wilkenson bass guitar, Billy Powell Keys, Artimus Pyle drums, And Ronnie VanZant lead vocls , All but Gary Rossington and Artimus Pyle has passed, Ronnie VanZant Steve Gaines and Steves sister and one of the backup singer Cassie Gaines were killed in the plane crash. The three lead guitars were killer.

Your enjoyment of this song is so enjoying to watch! I love how sincere yall are on this channel, and really like the way you describe what you are hearing and seeing. When I was in high school, in the early 80's, it was pretty much common knowledge that the best two songs were Stairway to Heaven and Freebird. No one really took it much further than that! Thanks for doing what you do!!! Peace and blessings!!! (And if you want to do more Skynyrd, Gimme Three Steps is fun, Give Me Back My Bullets is swampy, The Ballad of Curtis Lowe is super sweet...
