Q: What is your favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song?
A: The one i am listening to.
The band started forming back during the Jacksonville, Florida high school days of the 1970s where their long-haired, rockin' 'n' rollin' attitude and subsequent rowdy activities frequently led to the ire of the notorious teacher and coach, Mr. Leonard Skinner.
As there was no way anyone intended on getting haircuts or adhering to any dress code, the obvious solution to all the hassles was to quit school.
And commit to the music.
Allen's mother, Mrs. Collins, often provided milk and cookies for her son and his friends, Gary, and Ronnie and the others, as they hung out and practiced in her living-room and garage.
By the time the 1st album, "Pronounced lĕh-'nérd skin-'nérd" was released in 1973, the Lynyrd Skynyrd lineup was solidified with Allen on guitar, Billy on piano, Ronnie on vocals, Gary on guitar, Bob on drums, Ed on guitar, Leon on bass.
