The album where the tragedy began. Three days after the album's release, the band boards a plane to perform at the Greenville Memorial Auditorium. But the plane crashes and vocalist Ronnie Van Zandt, guitarist Steve Gaines, Gaines' sister and backing vocalist Cassie Gaines die in the crash. The album, which was released as an LP, was immediately recalled and the cover was changed. Because the original cover group shows it on a burning street. While the album isn't bad, it's not great either.

They put their signature under incredible performances with the enthusiasm of being on stage. The pieces have become different. You listen to it again and with a new pleasure. Very successful.

USA

Southern Rock, Hard Rock

The enthusiastic debut in the first album begins to leave its place to mediocrity when it comes to the fourth album. Is the album bad? No, of course not! But the traces of the first days began to fade. With its blues roots, Southern Rock is still alive, but far from creative and is about to turn into a repeat of the first albums.

They keep moving forward without diminishing their Southern Rock quality. It's an incredibly beautiful album that starts with the Saturday Night Special song. Railroad Song and On The Hunt are favorite tracks on the album. They're very good, but they still believe in the Confederacy. :)

USA

Southern Rock, Hard Rock

Although the musical quality of the first album is declining, it is at least as good an album. They still believe in the Confederacy. In fact, Sweet Home Alabama, where they mock Neil Young, will almost become the national anthem of the Confederacy in time. It is a fact that they returned to the roots of Rock'n Roll with their debut album. But the fact that they believe in the Confederacy idea still bothers me. Still, their use of guitar is legendary. Sweet Home Alabama, The Ballad of Curtis Loew and Swamp Music are my favorites from the album.

Basically loving this band is ridiculous. They have songs that contain many direct or indirect references such as incest, violence against women, racism, and even worse, they have such an idea. But their music is really good. One of Southern Rock's best bands. Tuesday's Gone, Simple Man and Free Bird are favorite tracks on the album.
