About this album

Lynyrd Skynyrd’s debut album set the template for Southern rock with hard blues riffs, twin-guitar drive and a rugged sense of melody. Released in 1973, (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd) introduced the Jacksonville band’s full sound, from the swagger of Gimme Three Steps to the aching balladry of Simple Man and the sprawling finale Free Bird. Recorded with producer Al Kooper, the album balanced bar-band grit with polished songcraft, helping define a regional style that crossed over into the mainstream. Its blend of hard rock, blues and harmony vocals made it one of the genre’s most enduring statement albums.
