Lynyrd Skynyrd - 1971 - Skynyrd's First The Complete Muscle Shoals Album
Lynyrd Skynyrd is an American rock band, formed in Jacksonville, Florida in 1964. The band became prominent in the Southern United States in 1973, and rose to worldwide recognition. Three members and one road crew member died in an airplane crash in 1977; the band reformed in 1987 for a reunion tour with lead singer Ronnie Van Zant's younger brother Johnny as the frontman. Lynyrd Skynyrd continues to tour and record. Of its original members, only Gary Rossington remains with the band as of 2010. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 13, 2006. To sample Lynyrd Skynyrd's true roots, the 1998 collection Skynyrd's First goes back even further than their official debut release, 1973's PRONOUNCED LEH-NERD SKIN-NERD. Comprised of 17 tracks, Skynyrd's First showcases early demos and outtakes that the band recorded prior to signing with MCA Records. Recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studios, Sheffield, Alabama.
