SKYNYRD - "Freebird" LIVE in 1977!

One of the most EPIC songs ever composed and felt by all of mankind. Other people that don't even speak a lick of English in third world countries have this song MEMORIZED!


The reach that this band has had by this one song has been monumental. And as we all know too well, the lights of fame put each musical soul in a spotlight to be beheld and loved. And when one of those great men or women dies prematurely, it shakes the foundation of our hearts and minds. We want so desperately to have them back with us but like Kurt Cobain, Randy Rhoads and Cliff Burton - their spirit will reside within the recordings they immortalized themselves in, as well as the speakers in which they will forever be blown out from!

GOTTA LOVE THE "STINGER" ROCK ENDINGS (Thanks to Topher for enlightening me on the proper name of this performance enhancing tactic! HaHa).

ALSO: another awesome resource that I provide those that are ready to learn is this, "Music Mentors" blog I author. Not just for Musicians but for people who just plain Love Music!!! We feature a master musician or avid music buff at least once a month - this is my way of honoring them. Also, our mission is to aid others in finding THEIR passion and place with Music. There are so many "Stages and Plateaus" while learning your specific instrument, we had to do SOMETHING!!! We believe in positive change and arts programs, as many of us have taught ourselves - our knowledge has been supplemented by legitimate music education from professionals in our lives.

P.S. -If you have any questions about our Music Mentor Program and would like to submit a friend or hero/heroine, please call me at:  229.834.3853 or reach me through email:  


Talk to you all soon,
