I had a lettering art class with Steve Gaines at Pittsburg State College back in around 1971. He spoke so softly that you could barely hear him speak, but his singing voice was very strong and good. He asked me to come over and jam with him a few times..since I also played guitar.and I never went....boy was I stupid.....he was with Man Alive at the time.....in Pittsburg, Ks. What a fine man.

My pop loved Merle Haggard I grew up listening to Merle Haggard and then I heard Lynyrd Skynyrd and I was hooked for life There songs never get old to me They are just as good today as they was the first time that ever heard them and so many great songs most people don’t ever play some of Skynyrd’s Best songs like Coming Home,Cry For The Bad Man Roll Gypsy Roll,I’ve Never Dreamed,Double Trouble and one of my favorite songs from Skynard Am Loosing Once Again,Down South Jukin,Every Mother’s Son,Searching,Traveling Man,One More Time,Trust,All I Can Do Is Write It In A Song and I could keep on naming song after song Because let me tell ya these boys new how to get down I never got to see the original band I was only 7 years old when they had the plane crash and Ronnie wrote most of the music except for a couple of songs some times I think What if the plane had not crashed Just think about how many more great songs that Ronnie would have been written What a shame it truly is we lost such a great song writer and a person

@GBeret83 Жыл бұрын

@Michael Crowson, truly fortunate enough to have seen them both. Skynyrd headlined with The Atlanta Rhythm Section & The Outlaws as their opening acts in Nashville, Tennessee. in 76' and The Eagles with the Steve Miller Band as their opening act in Cincinnati, Ohio in 78'. Both were absolutely fantastic shows, but I'd have to say Skynyrd was a bit more powerful and tight musically. That being said, it's two American bands that in my humble opinion don't have a single bad song in either of their musical catalogues. Or at least to that point in their careers they didn't. It's scary to think what Skynyrd may have evolved into had the plane crash not happened in October, 1977.

@bluesman32783 I can see Gaines branching out on his own and headling something like Clapton's Crossroads festival if he had lived. While Gary and Allen were "BRITISH INFLUENCED", Steve's heroes were Freddie King, Lonnie Mack, Big Joe Turner, The Isley Brothers, James Brown, etc. That's why he worked so well.."HE WAS DIFFERENT" but he fit like a glove. We can only guess what he would be doing if he had lived.

Kevin Elson said Steve Gaines did this solo in one take. Supposedly Allen and Gary just looked at each other and shook their heads, they knew there was NO WAY either one of them could have pulled it off. Gaines was a monster!

Ronnie said..We are doing this as a favorite for Cassie if he sucks, turn him off, if he's ok let him play. After the gig, Elson said..."THIS GUY IS THE REAL DEAL..HIRE HIM".. Also Tom Dowd had a Rod Stewart he was doing, so Kevin Elson and Barry Rudolph actually engineered and produced "STREET SURVIVORS"...Kevin went on to great things in the music business.
