Gary Rossington is InTheStudio
Lynyrd Skynyrdʼs Gary Rossington is InTheStudio for the 35th anniversary of the ʻliveʼ classic One More From The Road
Dallas, TX- Oct 10, 2011.
North American syndicated Rock radio show InTheStudio:
The Stories Behind Historyʼs Greatest Rock Bands hosts Lynyrd Skynyrd members past and present for the 35th anniversary of their comeback concert classic One More From The Road.
After a mere four studio albums, Lynyrd Skynyrd experienced a significant drop in sales as well as several key personnel changes. But a hastily conceived concert
recording set against the backdrop of Americaʼs bicentennial would result in one of the most successful albums of their career, a double LIVE album featuring the bandʼs enormously lauded performance chops.
“In rockʼnʼroll, back in those days, you matured like a dogʼs life. Every seven years is one year, you know”, guitarist Gary Rossington tells show host Redbeard.
Growing up poor in Jacksonville Florida made for its own
challenges, struggling to become a professional outfit. Rossington points out, “The way we used to change guitar strings, Alan(Collins), Leon(Wilkeson) and I, weʼd always go collect Coke bottles. You get about 10 or 15 Coke bottles and you could buy a new set of strings.”
InTheStudio can be heard on over 50 radio stations across North America. Lynyrd Skynyrd / InTheStudio program will air the week of Oct 10 - 16.

If we're talkin bout One More From The Road, I'll share my earliest memories of it. I didn't hear it for the first time in '76, but I did later around '79 or '80. A friend of mine had the album and one day he played it for me - needless to say I was completely blown away! From the opening with Workin For MCA to Freebird I couldn't get enough of it. So I went out and bought the 8-track tape so that I could listen to it while driving a 1970 Ford Torino. My friend and the Torino are long gone, but I'll always remember those simpler days growing up in Charleston, SC in the 70's jamming with Skynyrd.
