Oh yea,i forgot about Tuesdays Gone,great song.Of course Free Bird IMO was their number one hit.I also liked Just got paid Today,but they have so many great songs..Lynyrd Skynard was such a great band.Just sucks that they had so many bad things happen to them.Namely the plane crash of course,but other bad things happened to some of the band members over the years as well..It’s amazing that they are still together after all they’ve been through.Interesting fact about the band,which I’m sure you know..Leonard Skinner was the band’s High school gym teacher and was the inspiration for the band’s name.He passed away a few years ago.

I’m from Chicago but loved southern rock!

I love how that song just comes blasting-in on Sabotage! The entire album rules like Kung Fu! I'm especially fond of the outro to Symptom of the Universe.

Oh yea great songs.And how about Into the Void,which I believe was on their Master of Reality album?

Into The Void is indeed on Master of Reality [1971]. All of their albums are great through Sabotage, IMO. Technical Ecstasy has a couple of good tunes on it, but over-all it pales in comparison to their 1969-1975 sound. OTOH, I dig the album artwork for Ecstasy. Another far out piece by Hipgnosis.

Saw the Marshall Tucker Band at a very small motorcycle rally in southeast Minnesota more than 20 years ago.

They were the headliner and final band of the night, and by the time they got up on stage, Doug Gray was so wasted that he sounded like he was singing with his mouth full of marbles.

It was so bad that the audience began to walk away, at which point, he began cussing them out.

Horrible experience!

[SpikeSchumacher]

I'll play along. Here are mine...

 

 

Cheers

[NYLIBUD]

Oh yes,excellent song,Deep Purple’s Highway Star.And Anything from Rush is also great.But for me,it’s gotta be Subdivisions.

Oh man is that ever hard to nail down 3 songs.  I'd probably have to go with these, as having music conversations in the past with coworkers & friends I have always mentioned them in my list of favorites.  People are usually surprised by them as I'm more of a metal/hard rock/grunge guy (Pantera, Tool, Soundgarden, etc.).  

 

 

Honorable mention, just because.

This is a really tough one for me. This list could literally change by the minute.

Right? Depending on which decade or genre I'm focused on or...

[StevenGuthmiller]

I know that I said 3, but being as this is my thread, I'm adding a 4th.

 

Another song that I really love!

There was a 'Funk 48' too that was pretty good.......

[NYLIBUD]

Oh man,again I forgot about a song.Your absolutely right Bogger,Simple Man is such a great song…And it’s too bad we lost Neil Peart so young.And obviously after his very untimely death,that was the end of Rush.☹️RIP Neil.?Another great song not listed is Iron Butterfly’s “In a gadda da vida,”.

This Morning my top 3 would be:

Jimi Hendrix: Voodo Child (slight return)

Black Sabbath: Into the Void

Lynryd Skynyrd: I Know a Little

[Horrorshow]

Can’t leave out this one

This could almost be an entirely new thread for us musicians! What songs did/do your bands cover?

[Mike C.]

We didn't do the fancy talking guitar part for the Nazareth son. Nobody wanted to buck up for that expensive setup. ?
