(Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd ‘Skin-‘nérd)
Lynyrd Skynyrd (1973)
What is Southern Rock? I mean, you know it when you hear it. When the Allman Bros began their shift from blues jams toward more focused rock songs was likely the start, but when Skynyrd put out their debut, I think was when this really became a genre of its own. Do I need to hear this album ever again? Probably not, but I know for a fact that it held a level of importance to me while discovering different styles of guitar playing, and I respected all three guys — Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, and Ed King — as players (May 2020).
