RIP Gary Rossington - Free Bird by Lynryd Skynryd

RIP Gary Rossington. You, and the rest if the founding members are all free as a bird now. Just know that we will still remember you. But you must be traveling on now 'cause there's too many places you've got to see. 

Today's Track is the iconic Free Bird by the legendary southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. This performance is from 1977 at the Oakland Coliseum and features a young Gary Rossington with his flower jacket, his Gibson SG, his glass slide, and one of the most iconic riffs in rock history.

Three months after this performance, tragedy struck the band when their plane crashed killing singer Ronnie Van Zant and guitarist Steve Gaines.
