When Steve Gaines came on board they were set, then plane went down rest is history as they say.Ronnie said we play it like we rehearsed and recorded it, nobody is coming here to hear us play something different. Always dislike going to concert and it sounded nothing like the recording or they decided to improvise the sound. Led zepplin great recording, live plant cant sing and page just goes anywhere. Not skynyrd true American hard working musicians. I played every joint you could name...every honky tonk.

A California native, Ed King was a founding member of the psychedelic Sixties band Strawberry Alarm Clock, known for their hit “Incense and Peppermints.” He offered to join Skynyrd when, opening for the band at the Jacksonville, Florida, bar the Comic Book Club in 1968, he heard them rehearsing the song “Need All My Friends.” It wasn’t until 1972, however, when King would sign on with Skynyrd, temporarily replacing bassist Leon Wilkeson and then becoming a full-fledged member as third guitarist. King was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 as a member of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

It appears that some butthurt rebel Snowflake asshole has a issue that I put a Red X on his Comment. Freebird is the most overplayed, overrated song ever written by this band. And he doesn't like it! **** him!
