I just discovered your channel. This song was played at my father's funeral. It was the song they played as my father's casket was being carried out. This is the first time listening to the song since his funeral. I thought I'd cry. But for some reason seeing your reaction to it in such a positive way distracts me from the last time I heard it in a sad moment of my life. Definitely subscribed now. Thanks for this video. 🙂

Great southern rock band from the 60's-80's. It is very sad what happened to this band in losing so many members in a plane crash in 1977. My favorite songs are "Simple Man", "Free Bird" & "Sweet Home Alabama". They had lots of great songs such as "Call Me The Breeze", "Tuesday's Gone", "That Smell", "The Ballad Of Curtis Loew", "What's Your Name", "Gimme Three Steps", "Saturday Night Special" etc.

The Ballad of Curtis Lowe, my favorite Skynard tune, is worthy of your next reaction to this amazing band. My teen years were the ‘60’s, and this is definitely my type of pure, down and dirty rock with the heavy back drum and battling guitars being shredded. Don’t forget, it was my generation that made Woodstock WOODSTOCK! Which brings to mind, if you haven’t watched the live performance of Santana at Woodstock, do so. You will witness the ultimate drum solo of all time.

1990s? Try mid 1970s. Great song!! I saw them do this in concert and I worked security at one of their concerts. Then finally meet them in person and got hugs from them. Great icons…this song was dedicated in memory of his brother that was killed in the plane wreck Van Zant brothers are amazing. Brickyard road is the tribute song to Ronnie by his brother. You would really like it. Several members from the 70s died in the wreck…the others stepped up and carried this band for years.

No. This was written in 1973 and released in 1974 long before the tragic plane crash. It was written as a tribute to Duane Allman. Gary Rossington played the slide guitar which was a trademark sound of the Allman Brothers Band. Both bands were originally from Jacksonville ,Fl. When “Free Bird” was released, some fans speculated that it was a tribute to Duane Allman, the Allman Brothers Band guitarist who passed away in 1971. The guitar riffs at the end are reminiscent of Allman’s, causing people to believe it was about him.

JaaaaayVeeeeee! Great to see you again. I hope life has been good to you. 🌞 I have a playlist of 50 favorite songs I like to listen and relax while I seek inspiration for my writing. Freebird is on it so I have listened to it hundreds of times. It never grows old. The lyrics are deep and pondering them can produce great wisdom. Decades ago, a few puffs and I became a soaring bird flying free and receiving wisdom from heaven. So enlightening! Hey Jovaughn, don't forget you owe me a reaction to the song that launched psychedelic rock, Shapes of Things by The Yardbirds (perhaps the most underrated rock group of all time and the foundation from which was born Led Zeppelin).
