Great Live Skynyrd Show, Even If It's Edited Jul 27, 2009 This is a great recording of a Lynyrd Skynyrd concert in Cardiff, Wales. In order to appreciate the album's sound, you need to remember that guitarist Ed King had left the group before this concert, which meant that guitarists Gary Rossington and Allen Collins had to play HIS parts AND theirs in order to weave the sound into a harmonious whole. Believe it or not, they succeeded, making it terribly unfortunate that 20 minutes were edited out of the show for this CD. Unfortunately, one song that was cut was "Simple Man." Nevertheless, this is a great example of a band rising to the occasion in the wake of a major personnel change.
Compre sem medo Jun 11, 2009 Com dois guitarristas, o show não perde a sonoridade característica da banda.
Já tinha ouvido The Needle and the Spoon ou Double Trouble nesta fase?
O show é matador!
Não deixe de comprar o outro Bootleg autorizado: Winterland 76.

Why? Why? Why? Apr 18, 2009 I don't understand why this would be released in edited form? The circulating bootlegs are complete, this "official" bootleg is missing "I Got The Same Old Blues", "Simple Man" (unforgivable) and "T For Texas". In addition most of the between song chatter has been removed such as before "Freebird" when Ronnie thanks the Welsh people and dedicates the song to Duane, Greg and the Allman Brothers. They cut an excellent 70 minute show down to an average 50 minute show. It's a great show so if you don't own it, get it but why would it not be released complete!!!
It's not like the label doesn't own the missing songs, "I Got The Same Old Blues" was released on the Deluxe Edition of "Gimme Back My Bullets". No reason to not include it (or the others).
Now I'll have to check Winterland!

I forgot how good they were Apr 14, 2009 Vintage Skynyrd is long overdue. The set is strong and sounds good.
The real win here is Skynyrd using 2 guitars and not 3. They were known for the triple ax attack but this shows how truly good/great rossington and collins could play. The band sounds is rich, full and a little gritty and dirty at the same time. what's nice is this the band on any night on the road a true snap shot. Not a live alblum planned in advance.
Artemis Pyle sounded big. Besides being a great frint man and singer for this band, Ronnie could flat our write.
I got away from Skynyrd for a longtime, but this makes them sound fresh and relevant again.

LYNYRD SKYNYRD-AUTHORIZED BOOTLEG Mar 31, 2009 One disc 49 minutes approximately. This was originally produced for "the King Biscuit Flower Hour". The sound is clean and crisp,with each instrument having it's own presence,with a mix that puts vocals and instruments in their proper place.
This is the band after guitarist Ed King had left,leaving Allen Collins and Gary Rossington to weave their guitar parts together in a still blistering whole. The drums of Artimus Pyle are mixed a bit forward but that feels just right here. The band had just released their third album,NUTHIN' FANCY,but it's interesting that the first track (Double Trouble) is one that was recorded for their fourth album. A look at the track listing will tell anyone familiar with this band what they're in for. The vocals are very intense and hard-hitting,with the band also rising to the occasion. Anyone who likes the album ONE MORE FROM THE ROAD will take to this in a heartbeat. This is just one release in a series that is forth-coming. I for one say-keep 'em coming!
The packaging is not the best-the disc is slipped,bare,into a half-pocket cardboard sleeve. However,the roughish cardboard used in combination with the graphics gives the feel of a real bootleg.
A great addition to the Lynyrd Skynyrd catalogue,and a reminder (as if it's needed) that this was one great band in the true tradition of rock and roll
