I was there. The headliner was Peter Frampton. The Outlaws played before Skynyrd. What a time, what a show....

So was I. IIRC Santana and the outlaws led off the day. Skynyrd was awesome, Frampton, not so much. He fell down jumping off the piano.

Their album "One more from the road" is a dead ringer for that day on the green. Great Blast from the past!

Just listened/watched Freebird. Didn’t see me, but we were down front. Awesome.

The Outlaws played before Skynyrd.

Doesn't get any better than that. I like "Green Grass and High Tides" better than "Freebird." Funny story. The Outlaws were doing the Holiday Inn circuit back in the late '80s, where my wife worked (before we were married). She accidentally walked in on them when they were changing in a function room. Then didn't seem to mind. The waitresses got a big kick out of it.
