　　The first complete, unvarnished history of Southern rock’s

legendary and most popular band, from its members’ hardscrabble

boyhoods in Jacksonville, Florida and their rise to worldwide fame

to the tragic plane crash that killed the founder and the band’s

rise again from the ashes.

In the summer of 1964 Jacksonville, Florida teenager Ronnie Van

Zant and some of his friends hatched the idea of forming a band to

play covers of the Rolling Stones, Beatles, Yardbirds and the

country and blues-rock music they had grown to love. Naming their

band after Leonard Skinner, the gym teacher at Robert E. Lee Senior

High School who constantly badgered the long-haired aspiring

musicians to get haircuts, they were soon playing gigs at parties,

and bars throughout the South. During the next decade Lynyrd

Skynyrd grew into the most critically acclaimed and commercially

successful of the rock bands to emerge from the South since the

Allman Brothers. Their hits “Free Bird” and “Sweet Home Alabama”

became classics. Then, at the height of its popularlity in 1977,

the band was struck with tragedy --a plane crash that killed Ronnie

Van Zant and two other band members.

Lynyrd Skynyrd: Remembering the Free Birds of Southern Rock is an

intimate chronicle of the band from its earliest days through the

plane crash and its aftermath, to its rebirth and current status as

an enduring cult favorite. From his behind-the-scenes perspective

as Ronnie Van Zant’s lifelong friend and frequent member of the

band’s entourage who was also aboard the plane on that fateful

flight, Gene Odom reveals the unique synthesis of blues/country

rock and songwriting talent, relentless drive, rebellious Southern

swagger and down-to-earth sensibility that brought the band

together and made it a defining and hugely popular Southern rock

band -- as well as the destructive forces that tore it apart.

Illustrated throughout with rare photos, Odom traces the band’s

rise to fame and shares personal stories that bring to life the

band’s journey.

For the fans who have purchased a cumulative 35 million copies of

Lynyrd Skynyrd’s albums and continue to pack concerts today, Lynyrd

Skynyrd is a celebration of an immortal American band.
