Lynyrd Skynyrd One More From The Road 1976

One More From The Road is the first live album from the original Lynyrd Skynyrd band and was recorded in 1976.

This is both a thrilling and very sad live album.

It was recorded in July 1976, fifteen months before the plane crash that killed lead singer/songwriter Ronnie Van Zant, as well as guitar player Steve Gaines and his sister, backing singer Cassie Gaines.

You can’t help listening to this classic driving rock and wondering what Lynyrd Skynyrd led by Ronnie Van Zant would have produced in the future.

Lynyrd Skynyrd One More From The RoadSet List

I’ve got the 25th anniversary version of this album and it’s a little confusing with alternative takes stuck on the end. My advice is to put the first 16 songs on your iPod as one album and the remainder on another. Otherwise you finish with a disc with two Freebirds and two Sweet Home Alabama’s.

Disc one

  1. Introduction by Alex Cooley/Workin’ For MCA – 5:32 (originally on the album Second Helping)

If you like your rock Southern style and with plenty of guitars, then One More From The Road will challenge the Allman Brothers Live At Fillmore East.
