FREE BIRD!!
This was my gateway into classic rock. My buddy had this CD years ago about 10 years ago and I ruined it. I'm so glad they brought it back. I bought a replacement for him and one for me. For a Greatest Hits album that is almost 20 years old, it does the trick. It's the only album I could find the outtake version of my favorite song. 10:06 of bliss. Not to say any of the more recent compilations are more complete, but this is a great way to learn what Skynyrd's all about.


The Pinnacle Of Southern Rock
" Sure, this is far from the best compilation of tunes from the greatest Southern Rock band around, but each and every song on here is worth five stars by itself. If you were born and raised in the South like me, you probably have a special place in your heart for at least one of the tunes on "Skynyrd's Innyrds. From the legendary "Freebird" to jabs at the record label on "Workin' For MCA," to songs of warning like "That Smell," Skynyrd has a little something for everybody. "Saturday Night Special," "Call Me The Breeze" and "Gimme Three Steps" are just a few more of the wonderful tunes you can find on here. "Sweet Home Alabama," which reminds Mr. Young that he ain't needed around anyhow, is pure South. Skynyrd was a rebellious band for a rebellious people, and you really have to be from the South to get them completely.

Anybody who claims to know anything about Southern Rock needs this album. It didn't begin (nor did it end) with Lynyrd Skynyrd, but they are definitely one of the most important bands to ever grace the stage, no matter what genre. I highly recommend this album. It's the perfect "beginner's set" for anyone interested in Southern Rock.


Correction to Amazon's track listing!
Correct track listing:

1. Some great stuff on this cassette. Sweet Home Alabama, 2. Swamp Music, 3. I Ain't the One, 4. Gimmee Three Steps, 5. Double Trouble (outtake version), 6. Free Bird (outtake version), 7. Saturday Night Special, 8. Workin' for MCA, 9. What's Your Name? , 10. That Smell, 11. Don't Ask me No Questions, 12. Call Me the Breeze .


Where are the good Ones?
What rocket scientists came up with this poor excuse for a Best of. . Album? Considering that Skynyrd only produced a couple of studio albums it is strange that several of their best songs are not included. The most glaring omission is "Tuesdays gone", they also should have had "Simple Man", "Curtis Loew", and "the Needle and the Spoon". These songs are much better than some of the songs that were included. I hate to give only one star to an album by A great band like this, but it is just not what I am looking for in a Greatest Hits album.


SOUTHERN COMFORT
SKYNARD SPEAKS FOR ITSELF WITH EMOTIONAL AND CLASSIC ROCK N ROLL TUNES THAT WILL OUTLAST YOUR STEREO. JUST A TASTE OF ONE OF ROCK'S GREATEST BANDS. A MUST FOR EVERYONE THAT LISTENS TO MUSIC. THIS ALBUM HAS SOME OF SKYNARD'S MORE WELL KNOWN SONGS BUT I WOULD RECOMEND PICKING UP ANY DISK THAT YOU COME BY. TRUELY A CLASSIC BAND WITH AN UNFORGETTABLE SOUND. -YOU JUST CAN'T RATE MUSIC THIS GOOD.
