Description
Lynyrd Skynyrd (Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd) on 180g LP
Whether its the thems-fightin-words edginess of the humorous Southern-etched yarn Gimme Three Steps, or the spiritual pleas and lived-in wisdom echoed on the barbed-wire balladry of Simple Man, Lynyrd Skynyrd’s powerhouse 1973 debut Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd burns with forthright and freewheeling desire, rebellious and sincere earnestness. Then, of course, theres the sugary drip of Ronnie Van Zants political ragtime-referencing affair Things Goin On, bluegrass-tinted swing of Mississippi Kid, and swampy get-go of Poison Whiskey. They all lead up to the epic Free Bird, a greasy slide-guitar anthem that no matter how many times its played or requested, never loses its power to grip the listeners emotions like an iron vice. Seen from either a lyrical, musical, or performance perspective, theres not a wasted second or superfluous moment on (Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd) to be found.
