    It's hard to believe that on November 11th, 2023, this show will actually be forty-eight years since this concert was shown and recorded by the BBC in London.
    It's still so fresh you'd think it had been recorded yesterday. It's so sad that since Gary Rossington's passing, only Artimus Pyle is still alive but I'm sure that those who have now left us continue to put shows on up in Heaven. They may be gone, but they and their music will live on forever in our hearts. God bless them all.
    Thank you, Lynyrd Skynyrd. You will never be forgotten.

    This is singlehandedly the best version of Freebird. Look at Billy on that 9ft Steinway concert piano!!!!! The whole band is playing at their absolute finest! The British were lightyears ahead at engineering and recording for a Television broadcast in 1975! This is a pure frozen time capsule!!!!

    Saw em 2 times with Ed King. Once with Allen an Gary. And once with Steve Gaines. I just loved the band as a whole. Billy Powell was always amazing on Keys. RVZ on vocals. They had a cool kinda heavy Southern rock thing with tunes like MCA. I Ain’t the One and also had a true southern blues deal with Ballad of Curtis Lowe. I loved em. Loved Allmans as well. Outlaws where real deal. Tucker was fantastic. These guys had something that I just loved. An can’t pinpoint. But I know I loved em

There has never been a band with the amount of killer guitar talent Skynyrd had. God bless Gary, Allen, Ed, and Steve!👌🏻

    Ronnie did the vocals with a headcold and a sore throat, I'm told. The ones who were around the band can verify this if they'd like.

    This is the best I’ve heard the band sound. Ever. This was before they really started getting strung out and of course made that fatal drug and alcohol induced decision to board that plane wow what a life !!

      @@alishacollins4208 it’s the truth , i’ve listen to them since I was a kid. I’m now 50 years old . Aerosmith had the same airplane they did, and refused to take it an hour before Ronnie insisted even though some of the others didn’t want to . they lived fast , died free. Nothing wrong with that . The world we live in today are all pansy’s that can’t handle reality .

      They were tight as hell no doubt. The entire band. The best I've ever seen Billy
