Some nice guitar playing starts this one out until it kicks into the chicken picking riff that's present throughout the entirety of the song. I really don't need to say more, this song rocks and that's really all you need to know! 5/5

There is a nice little solo in the bridge towards the end of the song but the chorus and the riff in the verses are what make this song come alive. The vocals are perfect and the lyrics are some of the Skynyrd's best for sure. My favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd track of all time! The band shows a lot of energy and power in this song and remain hard edged throughout the course of the song. Well, not much more to say 'bout this awesome song, another Skynyrd gem to be heard. The lyrics are amazingly catchy from the verses to the chorus and anything in between. From the groovy southern riff to Van Zant's serious yet playful singing, this band shows again and again why they're the defenitive southern rock band. Right off the bat with two lead guitars laying down one groovy riff, Lynyrd Skynyrd show off a song formula that they will come to use a few more times in their career. The lyrics are simple but effective and to this day, "Tuesday's Gone" remains one of Lynyrd Skynyrd's premier songs. Van Zant sings with a lot of emotion and the guitars just add the perfect feel to the song. Anyways, "Tuesday's Gone" is the ballad from the album and I must say it's an amazing song. The next song should be quite familiar to you considering it's been used in a lot of movies such as Dazed and Confused and Happy Gilmore.

A really great way to start the album for sure! 5/5 Again, I must say that the drums are excellent on this track and probably the best on the album and just 'bout any other Skynyrd song around. The guitar riff chugs along with some sweet lead guitar playing throughout the song. The vocals are quite aggressive while spitting out the lyrics which seem to be about a situation gone wrong. Starting out with a stomping drum beat the song turns into a hard rockin' kick your butt all over the place show. Now that you've had the run down, let me give you the details 'bout these rockin' songs. Also, "Gimme Three Steps" and "I Ain't the One" contain some strong hooky riffs while "Things Goin' On", "Mississippi Kid" and "Poison Whiskey" just proove why this band is the greatest southern band ever.

Featuring some of Skynyrd's greatest and most well known songs such as the serious toned "Simple Man" to the ballad "Tuesday's Gone" and the epic "Free Bird" that features one of the greatest solos of all time. But Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd did just that and a little more. In 1973, there were plenty of landmark releases such as Dark Side of the Moon and Houses of the Holy, but Lynyrd Skynyrd were just the new kids in town and the chances of their debut album being as strong as anything else released that year seemed unlikely. Back in the day when british bands ruled the music scene, there was a birth of a band in america and no i'm not talkin' 'bout the rock and roll legends Aerosmith but rather the greatest southern rock band ever, Lynyrd Skynyrd.
