Lynyrd Skynyrd - Winterland, San Francisco 1975

Image
This is Lynyrd Skynyrd live at the Winterland Ballroom, San Francisco, California on the 27th April 1975. From 1973 through to the tragic air crash in October 1977 that decimated the band, Lynyrd Skynyrd were one of the most popular live acts in rock'n'roll history. A couple of points of interest for fans and trivia addicts, Billy Powell was absent from this show, so the band had to find a substitute for his piano part in Call Me The Breeze. Notably Sweet Home Alabama also sounds a little different as a result. Lee Freeman, who had played with Ed King in Strawberry Alarm Clock and would later play on Gimme Back My Bullets, blows the harp. An early incarnation of Lynyrd Skynrd supported Strawberry Alarm Clock back in 1968 on some East Coast tour dates. Source: Soundboard. Sound Quality: Very good stereo mp3@320kbps.
