They are sadly all gone now but their music lives on forever! Thank you for reacting to this
So sad to hear.
Ronnie van Zant asked a simple question... If I leave her tomorrow, would you still remember me? So many years later the world is still answering that question with a resounding YES we do remember you Ronnie
Ah man you hit the nail on the head!
60,000 people in Oakland, Ca. on a hot summers day 1977, taking in one of the greatest bands ever. Back then it was all about the music for the performers and the audience. No elaborate stage show and playing during the day, there's no use for lighting. This is when you know you're seeing an amazing band- their songwriting and musical ability are all that's needed to keep you in awe.
Were you there too? Summer I graduated from HS, 1st concert (apart from the Grass Roots at Disneyland) 2nd was Queen 5 months later, followed by Journey's 1st tour with Steve Perry. Hell yah, it was great being a teenager in the 70s SF Bay Area
I saw them right after my 17th birthday in April of 1977. Nazareth opened the show. It was my first concert.
Wow, this was such a long time ago.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is the greatest American Rock Band, imo
Gives me the creeps when Ronnie says If I leave here tomorrow would you remember me, knowing that in about 2-3 months after this show we would lose Ronnie (29), Steve Gaines (28, red pants), Steve's sister Cassie Gaines ( 29 backup singer) road manger and 2 pilots in the plane crash. 20 others survived but had serious injuries.
Yes sir Ronnie we still remember you,,,
The lead singer: "Make it pretty for Oakland"...instead of "Oakland, give it up for us", is a subtle window in to the mentality of artists from the 70s. These guys really cared about fans, and they were blown away by their fame, rather than expecting it.
Play it pretty for Oakland is the line. Every city was the line . We toured.
You are soooooo correct. Every artist back then. You caught that right. The good are gone and going and when the last one goes, darkness. But hopefully in the wind will be these songs playing somewhere bringing light to help show the way.
@@markavell7111
That's not his point. And he was right.
It's play it pretty not make it pretty
@@robertmorgan2862
Oookkkayyyy? What's your point? A technical one? Let it gooooooo
Worlds coolest breakup song.
Your a likeable lady. U have nice personality. i can see & hear the goodness in your heart. Inner beauty is very special & appealing thing. I wish the human race was more like u. ❤
Gary Rossington is playing slide guitar, using a glass slide, that is how the bird chirping sound is created. He was a genius. The guitar soloist is Allen Collins, another amazing genius. I could listen to you talk all day, love your accent.
Grandmas and Grandpa's!!!!Don't Get No Better. I was there!! Rock On!!!!!
Got to love music with out words just guitar
Gary Rossington the guitarist making the bird sounds is playing with a slide on his finger working it up and down the guitar neck. Which also has bridge near the top. All of that and pure talent produces that beautiful sound. ;0)
It’s indeed pure talent and sounded so good.
That bird sound and the lead intro is played using something called a guitar slide. It's a simple Hollow tube about the size of the finger made of glass or some type of metal that fits on the finger and played much like a steel guitar
Nice, simple description. Thank you. 😉
This particular concert was at the Oakland Coliseum, the series of concerts were called “Day on the Green “. It was an all day event with many bands. Mr Bill Graham would put on quite a few each year from the 1970’s through the mid 80’s I personally attended about 1/2 a dozen including Led Zeppelin as a goofy teenager.
Wow.. music in your ere was incredible and still is. I am glad I got to see it in this era.
Yeah it was fun and a good community of other teens going to shows I grew up playing drums and saw a lot of my drum hero’s
-keep your musical journey going-
Oh boy did they ever play it purdy, for the world, for all time. Thanks for your vid!
Just realize that the kids in the crowd are now in their 60s!!
Wow… I can imagine
I have never seen anyone listen to this song without a smile on their face....and isnt that the most important aspect of music? there is nothing more important than if the music moves you or not. Not the commercial budget, not the auto tune, not the glits or the glam. current "artists" can claim to sing from the heart but really they perform from the pocketbook.
They were the best. ❤️🎸 🎹
Baby girl all their songs are like this one . Just pick one out of 50 songs. Just Choose one. How are they that skilled & good ? (They had tallent a bunch of it)Your looking & listening to the hardest working rowdyest partying rock band thats ever lived. No one practiced as much as them. No one played as many concerts in one tour or a years time. Then no one has this special style & sound they have. Van zant collins & rossington are responciable for their core sound. Especilly vanzant the singer. Its his band. He writes the words with a little help form band members. U will never see 3 top 100 guitar players on stage ever again in one band. I judge guitar playing by the sound their getting. Rossington & collins have the best sound in rock & roll history. Its very consistant & entertaining . It never gets old. Their sound is much longer lasting & appealing to multipul generations & types of people if given a chance. than any other band. I thank GOD ALL MIGHTY for this band. Their tallent comes from him.
Love this band.
Me too☺️
@shockwavereact
" call me the breeze" you'll love it and " Tuesday's gone." Research the plane crash. So sad.
Some of the best solos evet.
A whole lot of sunburned white girls at this concert! This is like their anthem. Southern rock 💙👵🏼✌🏼🌻
What song is it you wanna hear?
FREE BIRD!!!
The original southern rock ballad
Much love and peace from NC, sister. 🙂 Just subbed! ❤
Thank you, greetings to you from 🇬🇧 UK
Oh snap. You hit the two must-watch live videos from 1977 in the same week (hotel california and freebird). I hope you can recover (you never will). It's rough to go up from there.....maybe try Mississippi Queen, by Mountain.
Those videos are incredible, I’ll be glad to check out your recommendation
@@shockwavereact Cool. You won't be sorry. Just turn it up really loud.
I believe it was the guitarists on the left with the beard, his sister and lead singer died in that plane crash. The lead singer wasn't in his seat with seat belt on. Maybe he would have survived.
Such a sad story.
They have all passed away now❤
Awwwwn sad.😔
You like that guitar you should try out Led Zeppelin. Jimmy Paige is one of the best in the business.
Sounds good 👍🏽
Hillbilly's whistle
Okay 👍🏽
They live off the land that's how they communicated when hunting not to alarm the prey they picked it up from the Native Americans, Indians, and hillbillies making the best soldiers that's why the US MILITARY is the best in the world
Unfortunately, three months later several key members of the band would die in a plane crash, along with Dean Kirkpatrick and both pilots.
Yea, I read that from my comments, it’s so terrible and sad. 😞
Please react to :

🔥
Okay 👍🏽
"Play some Skynyrd , man"
Lynyrd Skynyrd is legendary!! Check out Call me the Breeze, Gimme three Steps, and Tuesday's Gone because they are classics!! You won't be disappointed, I promise!! ❤❤❤
Sounds good, I’ll check them out soon as I can . 👍🏽☺️
Keep rocking and thank you for your genuine reactions ❤🇬🇧
Thank you! Will do! Have a lovely evening ahead.👍🏽☺️
The south will rise again🤘
Brooklyn schank
There were over 63 thousand people there that day only 3 months before the fatal plane crash. BTW the ticket price was $11. Us boomers lived in the best of times. This was our social network.
Omg… so sad to hear about the plane crash.
Beautiful song, fabulous band, and amazing guitar skills. This was greatness. The guitarist was using something on his middle finger called a guitar slide to make the special sounds and the bird sounds. It was clear and hard to see, so it was probably made of glass. Guitar slides are commonly used by guitarists, but in all my years of listening to great guitarists, I never heard any if them make bird sounds. Very impressive and fascinating to watch. Thanks for this one.
This was so good to watch, I really enjoyed their special playing skills displayed, really interesting band, like you rightly said “This was Greatness” thanks for watching,i appreciate your comment too.
ALWAYS listen to the original studio recording masterpiece (THIS IS NOT NOT NOT THAT IT IS SOME LIVE NIGHT YEARS LATER INFERIOR SOUND -ARENA SOUND AND THE FAMOUS LEGENDARY GUITAR SOLO IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT listen to the actual song on the album that everybody heard sessions of any legendary artist of the classic progressive rock era from the album the REAL SONG IT MAKES NO SENSE TO NOT LISTEN TO THE EXACT REASON why it became part of peoples souls otherwise you ruin your virgin listen and you are hearing some version always different if you want to understand HEAR EXACTLY WHAT YOU WERE MEANT TO LIKE WE ALL DID the real studio recording as it was meant and what made it legendary otherwise is dumb !!! your not hearing the real thing
Okay… I will listen to the original. Thank you 🙏
beautiful reaction. this was skynrds gift to the world just before their plane crashed.
when my kids were little i told them Freebird was the national anthem
I can imagine how good the song was then as well, must have been played everywhere. (National Anthem got me smiling 😊)
You should also check out Lynyrd Skynyrd songs Still Unbroken, Gimme Three Steps and Tuesday’s Gone
Okay, I will try to check out all the recommendations
the drummer was a former marine who survided the plane crash with his lungs all broken up hanging out. he climbed uo a ravine to get help only to be shot in thr shoulder by a farmer. he survided that too
Omg..😧 that’s some crazy story, I didn’t know any one survived from the crash it’s so sad but glad to know someone survived.
@shockwavereact most survived with injuries. but Ronnie Vanzant brains/writer/singer did die & one guitarist & backbup singers
His ribs were broken, not his lungs! And he wasn't shot, never treated for a bullet wound. Farmer says he shot in the air.
@@ElizabethJohnson-ss4ce shot in the shoulder
@@joekuz9133 Artemis is the only one who says he was shot. Farmer shot a warning shot over his head. He went to the hospital for his injuries, but he was not treated for a bullet wound.
The bird sounds are from playing the natural harmonics, on the guitar strings. Rather than pressing them fully down to the fret (metal bit on the wooden playing surface that in effect shortens the string distance), instead they just barely make finger contact with the string, but only at certain places (5th, 7th, 12th, 19th, frets, etc.) They sound pretty cool, and they are a showboat move in a lot of songs.
The sounds are really so cool.
this song use to be a staple at nascar event
Oh that’s cool.👍🏽
"What sounds can you get from a guitar?" you ask. Suggested next stops:
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, "Voodoo Child" (live, Austin City Limits)
Eric Johnson, "Cliffs of Dover" (live)
Rage Against the Machine, "Bulls on Parade"
More, to check out, I’ll gradually get to see all these recommendations. Thanks for doing this, I appreciate. 🙏☺️
@@shockwavereact I am here to serve!
@@davewildermuth7519 Glad Having you here. 🙏☺️
You forgot SRV "Texas Flood" from El Mocambo.
@@kevinmclaughlin8975 Absolutely! I'd throw in "Hot for Teacher" by Van Halen, since we're talking gunslingers!
I Need You. I Ain't the One. Mr Banker. On the Hunt. Was I Right or Wrong. Many more than the ones played on the radio
Okay. I will be checking out more from them
