I'm a 57yr old black man and I've loved guitars from day one... I love RnB but I luuuuv rock concerts and still go to shows today... It's what I do...🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

65 and here with you all.

Doesn't matter black or white ..A masterpiece!

Yeppers! Saw Outlaws and Skynyrd together in "76 and they're touring together this year, what's left of them.

No original skyward left

I believe you may be correct sir. I was born in 97 but my dad was born in 57 and he grew up seeing all the greatest bands. Im blessed for him to have passed his music taste down onto me.

@Mike_Nowlan I did the same with my 2. Introduced them to the Greatest and Never Repeated Music

1965 -1980 was the best time for music. No matter the genre, even country was good back then.

Green Grass and high tides forever

if it's too loud you're too damn old

Yeppers.

Many years ago, I played this (studio) loud riding with my Dad, he asked why do I like this. I said, it's great. In a way, it sums up our relationship.

So do I man 👍👍✌✌🎸🎸

Nor do they care.😢

@@JohnMoore-xf5wy So So true & pathetic too.

So true and yeah pathetic..they will never know great Rock and Roll 😏

You're wrong. This sound is alive and well, but you can't expect it to look for _you,_ you have to look for _it._ Look up *"Rival Sons",* they have a great 70s sound. Dirty Honey. Of course, Greta Van Fleet. The sound is still out there, if you're willing to look for it.

Nah that's not entirely true, a lot of us highly appreciate and love it ✌️

THE , Greatest Rock & Roll Song of All Time ..........

It just is!❤

AGREED..…ONE OF 'EM...ALONG WITH LAYLA!......& OTHER ASSORTED.. ....

Haahaaaaaa 😅😆🤣 Nobody ain"t never heard that'n. Riiiiiiiiiggggghhht.

Lol!!!!!!!!!!

@@roadking7500 haaaa haaa😂😅😁😅 IKR!!? But surely this mini story was recounted only in jest, no?

Do you still have your ticket stub? I hope so.

I paid 10.50 to see these guys Santana, The Dead, and Eddie Money live at Autzen Stadium in 1978. Badass show took ALL day long.

Same here with Molly Hatchet opening, still have the stub.

That’s high quality living my man, high key jealous

Saw them at Adventure Island in Tampa in 83. Too drunk to remember what I paid for tix but worth a lot more than whatever it cost

Are they both gone ...

@@duck539 sadly, yes. 😢

Billy and clapton are my favs

Who is the guy in the red shirt and black les Paul?

Billy Jones is playing the Gibson guitar here. I saw these guys around 1994 in Madison Wisconsin. This was their last song. I was in front of the stage when they walked off. I offered Hughie a cig from my pack of Marlboro's. He took one and put his guitar pick in my Marlboro pack.

@@bigsky3072 Great story!

@volkerke5315 9:50 mark dude. Listen to that. Too bad Billy Jones committed suicide about 12 years ago. He was a mathematician. Very smart. But he wanted to play guitar. Hughie died of a heart attack about 15 or 20 years ago.. sitting in his house watching a Florida Gator football game.

Rock on brother 🤘

Good old ((music) 2222 .

Hell Yeah!

💯 %%%%

And Fire on the Mountain for marshal Tucker! Right? It is also, still, a winning hook for any band to know...have a GD great signature song.

I am a southern rock fan. I saw them all. I grew up in Jacksonville Fl. Remember paying 5 bucks to see three bands. We collected soda bottles for seven people to go. Hence why Curtis Lowe is my favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song. RIP Gary Rossington RIP Lynyrd Skynyrd. Heaven's got a hell of a band!!

Molly Hatchet, the other guitar army

@@bigsky3072 Preaching to the choir.🤠

Not by my generation!❤

Amen. RIP, We'll meet again cuz Heaven has a helluva band...🤘

"Billy Jones (red shirt) - one of the most unknown and underrated lead guitar players in Rock & Roll history." that's right.

Maybe dying won’t be so bad if you could go back in history to any point in time.

@@rodmunch4879 concur

Billy was exceptional. A shame, he left the band for whatever reasons and never found his way. I've found a few rare recordings of him, the man could play.

If this song doesn't get you on your feet I feel bad for you...these boys rock it!

I was there 74 to 78 and we went to Lake Aguile and heard the best rendition of Freebird...tripping balls

@@dustysummers2680 I hope not. That's the whole idea.

prolly gary…gary moore

@dustysummers2680 well it sure sounded note for note when I watched him play it in front of my eyes...I remember he had very long blonde hair ... I was completely blown away and I'm a guitar player :)

Never heard of Skynard. I did hear of Skynyrd though.

@@guitarlad89 Just a typo, but glad you showed up to point that out.

Don't forget Marshall Tucker Band!

Check out Point Blank's debut lp from 1976, really good too.

ZZ Top and Marshall Tucker would like to have a word

Alright, Alright, ALL RIGHT ! I've heard enough about it being perfect, & never missing a note. I have, over the course of 2 weeks (actually15 days) have METICOUSLY transcribed the entire 24 odd minute Magnum Opus...(actually I QUIT AT MEASURE 876....the drums I'm slow as hell on, and it became a bit excessive halfway through, ...8 hrs a day ,10 the first 2 days....when the other drummer came in I began getting old...) -of course I included repeat measures for many of the versres and choruses,- I maybe crazy but ain't no schmoo- but did indeed catch a semi-ghosted note at the 20 minute mark, but skip that it might be incorrect. During the drum solo, after the other drummer was going along to accompany the other one ... there is flim-flam that didn't flu....Just forget it... That dang course I took in transcribing...a freakin 36 weeks of Zappa multple measures of 17/8 ,5/4, and 9/8 reggae, Steve Vai in depth, musical nightmare..he did say no one had stayed with it as long as I had. Yeah freakin bullshit cuz thats cartoon music that Sylvester and Wil E. Coyote ...just nevermind. Beep Beep. Road trippin', Vicksburg to Jackson.

The original song is under 10 minutes. So they added alot of notes. Now I know why some bands have 2 drummers. In case one of them cramps up during a 20+ minute song. They can keep the time going till they rub it out.😆 Great song and group.

23 MINUTES PLUS!!! M.O'B

I think I saw them on this same tour, but in Manchester NH. The Outlaws guitarists came out on stage and joined Marshall Tucker to finish up the last few songs of the show. It was amazing.

I was there too

Lol. I worked for BGP. I still cannot believe the Outlaws did a show at Santa Clara Univ......many shows at Winterland. Those were the days brothers!

@@joebagadonuts7908 I was at this one too

I never got to go to Winterland before they closed. Lucky you thanks for sharing. Yes those were the days tho

@@lilsama yup, the camel is on acid

I saw these guys for the first time in 1980-81 New Year’s Eve concert in Lakeland, Fla. My buddy and I rolled like 20 joints in the far back of his mom’s station wagon while my mom talked to his mom on the ride there. I was only 14 and we had a blast! Off!!!

Always

Musicians who actually play instruments. Imagine that. Glorious! !

Bros clipin along on their.horses comin to keep from us tha gallos pole..

Got to party with them .

Thank you!

Nailed it.

Can we name anything new

@@stevenbrown6720 Try anything with Warren Haynes.

them and Lynyrd Skynyrd nothing like it

That is a FACT!

This song, also. In Memory of Elizabeth Reed by the Allman brothers, the 13 minute version of Soul Sacrifice by Santana, and live versions of China Cat Sunflower/ I know you Rider from the Grateful Dead

DITO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@bryanlasermagiktyler3132 not even Skynyrd can compete with this tbh.

Met them at Thoroughbred music in Tampa Fl.1980's. Down home...Being a musician at that time, I really appreciated their spirit. I still enjoy it until this day. Those were the "Best" of times...not like today. It was played from the "Heart" not for followers and money. It was the "Real deal". Thank God it was in my time...Rock On, Gentlemen, Rock On!!!!👍🤟🤙😎

Makes you want to dance around in the living room for sure!!

Don't we all.😢

​@@JohnMoore-xf5wy We do ...

Buy the album Bring ‘em Back Alive it’s this recording

44 years? Aren't you tired by now dude? Take a rest for heaven's sake! Guinness book of world records for Christ's sake!

Agreed, I prefer strats personally.

@Rob still true

Strats and Les Pauls...throw in some Marshall, a Vibrolux for good measure and call it a day...you'll never need anything else.

They still do my brother.

Well said.

Ck out blackberry smoke keeping southern rock alive in 2023

You would Like Zappa then ?

They all were hitting on all 8

I guess my "systems administrator " has shut down my ability to comment. Well, fuck him too. I remember the first time I walked into my local biker bar with an Outlaws t-shirt on and someone asked who the fuck is that? Same thing happened when I walked in with a Tom Petty shirt on. Unfortunately some people are born idiots and they don't get any better. It's genetic.

If this is the greatest song ever then your spitting in the face of the greatest, grab your marbles up lol

Grey Ghost - the Henry Paul Band

I wouldnt argue with ya there! Easily a Top 5 for me for being a completely perfect song from start to finish

Even my 15 year old granddaughter thinks this is awesome music. Love ya pnut!

your right , they dig it

It's super cool at the 10:18 mark when Hughie wanders over near Billy for a 'Hey, let's do this lick together' moment. This video is some 23+ min long, but it goes by like it's 3 minutes. If I didn't have a job & have to eat & sleep, I could listen to it over & over & over. This is one where they 'gave me the beat, freed my soul & I get lost in their rock n' roll' lol

@@RockThisTown2000 I've seen them in Tampa a few times, a true jam band 🎸😎 🗿

You said it well my friend.

OMG! YES!!!! It's sad that Hughie And Billy are not with us any more!

You can thank Duane and dicky for that. The took the duel lead guitar playing to another level

Wow! What an experience. Truly Iconic musicians. Seen them with Marshall Tucker Band, New Haven Coliseum 💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥

Wow that's incredible! Did you see the 75/76 New Years show at Lakeland? * With the Allman Brothers

It has made millions of us weep openly, lovely lady! Beautifully said.❤

I'm afraid that whenever I read that line - "THOSE were the best times of my life" it kinda spooks me. I'm 64 and I KIND OF understand - but it takes some EFFORT to get up, out and make some NEW MEMORIES pronto. There are people even in their TWENTIES who have kinda bagged it, and spend the next... 50 years reminiscing about HIGH SCHOOL Yikes! Just say whoa.....

I hail from the once great state of Virginia. Saw my first concert in 1970... B.B. King / Duane Allman and the Brother's. Have seen Skynyrd, Outlaws, Marshall Tucker, Alman Brother's, on and on, etc. Some of us took advantage of so many concerts, so much music and so cheap. We lived on the golden era of the greatest music ever. Thank God I did. 40-50 years fast forward and I'm still doing it just paying through through the noise as they say. Don't know about y'all but I still play my vinyl album's. Some people spend their money on goods, I spend mine on Music! Keeps the sanity...

@@mikebaird8648 ha ! I grew up in MD ,we were probably going to the same concerts ...stay young brother ! I still try to play my guitar but unfortunately arthritis and an accident ,my hands aren't what they used to be .luckily I still have my ears lol ..

Well said , southern rock at its core

Bands like the outlaws made being a teenage boy in the 70s frigging awesome.

Well now us youngsters have to bring it up no thanks to y’all

Very well said! We WERE FREE!

What a great story!

Always preferred this to Freebird.

Agree on all points boys but my personal list has all these mentioned, plus Barry Bailey & JR Cobb of Atlanta Rhythm Section. Their anthem is Another Man’s Woman, and it rides just fine alongside Green Grass and Freebird.

Please dont be coming down on me to hard, i wasnt born till 75 so i wasnt paying attention for the inception, which guy is it playing the strat, and which is playing the les paul?

Great players seen play once Play the song exactly like on video

@@blakenorman4822 Thomasson on Strat, Jones is playing the Les Paul.

The Best,!' Bar none!

I’m glad your neighbors like it. I’m just loving it right now. Really great. Kids today just don’t appreciate a good guitar and drum playing. Awesome brings back great memories of good parties.

Same deal for my neighbors, if there’s a place to buy quality it’s on sound equipment. My neighbors hear it all beautifully.

Hello from Tallahassee 😎

Share the wealth brother! That's a good thang!

LA Coliseum 81' maybe 82' every big shot band was there. Outlaws are the ones i remember the best. Great band good times

Sounds like once he got the technical part learned; the rest was all left up to pure feel.

It was perfection from beginning to end. Never saw 2 guitarist so tight. Vicki

Maybe flawless, but not stellar

Love the tune and the band, but one of the drummers walked all over the intro. Just noodling around on the toms to no musical effect. Really, striped the intro of its magnificent tension.

I mean, he muted a note accidentally switching from the b minor/g triad riff to the D bar chord at the beginning. But that’s about it lol.

I'm not a musician, but what do you mean he muted a cord?

For me it is Outlaws at the top of Southern Rock hierarchy Marshall Tucker next followed very closely by Allmans and Skynyrd a few notches below.

NK, Don't know how the drummer can do a solo after playing this for 17 minutes

@@sammack1564 I used to play along to this as a training workout. It was awesome. How I would imagine hitting the gym with Big Arnie would have felt...it worked but it absolutely slaughtered me by the end, lol.

I was on a job in Indiana and got locked up in the county jail in Crawfordsville Indiana for fighting in a bar and the bass player was in there with me I am from the hills of southeastern Oklahoma so we know southern rock and I was like holly shit you played bass for the outlaws lol

All top notch for sure what a blessing

@@sammack1564 Two drummers. Eases the load a bit. Each has a solo.
