Lynyrd Skynyrd - One More From The Road (Reissued and
Remastered) Originally Released: 1976/Reissued: 1996 | MP3 | 320 KBPS | 227 MB Live At The Fabulous Fox
Theatre In Atlanta, Georgia
One More For From The Road was recorded live during Skynyrd`s sold-out
three-night stand at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia in July, 1976. The ornate 4,600-seat
landmark was packed to the rafters with a rabid, Confederate-flag-waving mob of Skynyrd faithful, who felt the
group`s thunderous rock `n` roll hurricane blowing full force. The interplay between the newcomer Steve Gaines
and veteran guitarists Gary Rossington and Allen Collins inspired the whole band to new heights of frenzied
virtuosity. In the eye of this Southern cyclone stood vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, barefoot, calmly
orchestrating the pandemonium surrounding him with ferocious growls, snarls, and wolf-whistles.
The
three nights of live recording were a delirious celebration of Skynyrd`s catalog, with the band playing al
their classic hits and treating fans to scorching performances of `T For Texas,` `Travellin` Man` and
`Crossroads,` none of which were available on their studio albums, along with such signature songs as `Gimme
Three Steps`, `Tuesday`s Gone`, `Saturday Night Special`, `Sweet Home Alabama` and, of course, a blistering
11-and-a-half-minute version of `Free Bird`.The recordings of Skynyrd at the Fox captured the group at the
pinnacle of their powers with the best performances from the three nights being picked for release. The
resulting live album was the definitive work of the band`s career.
One More For From The Road became
Skynyrd`s breakthrough record. The double-live set was released on September 13, 1976, and immediately
rocketed into the Top 10, becoming the group`s fastest selling LP ever. It would soon join Pronounced and
Second Helping as Skynyrd`s third million-selling record, making them the only other Southern band up to that
time, besides the Allman Brothers, to have reached platinum status. To date, One More From The Road has gone
triple platinum, with more than three million albums sold.
1996 marked the 20th Anniversary of One
More From The Road, and it was apropos to present this newly remastered, expanded version of the original
album. This two-CD set contains all of the songs that appeared on the original double LP, plus two bonus
tracks recorded during the Fox shows: `Gimme Back My Bullets` and `Simple Man`. In a further effort to
recapture some of the flavor of the original Fox concerts, the songs on this set have been resequenced to
correspond to the original running order of Skynyrd`s shows there.
