Acoustic album
$9.25 In the early-mid '90s, the "unplugged" album was king. Such classic rock artists as Eric Clapton scored huge hits with the acoustic format, and just @about every rock act followed in issuing a stripped down and intimate set, including Lynyrd Skynyrd with 1994's ENDANGERED SPECIES. Versions of Skynyrd's classic tunes are featured for the most part, but newer selections round out the collection as well, however it's acoustic versions of "Sweet Home Alabama," "Saturday Night Special," "Down South Jukin'," and "I Ain't the One" that longtime fans will want to hear most. Credit should also go to producer Barry Beckett (a longtime regular at the famed Muscle Shoals recording studio), who helps Skynyrd achieve a sparkling yet warm sound throughout.
Recorded at Masterfonics Studio, Nashville, Tennessee.
Lynyrd Skynyrd: Johnny Van Zant (vocals); Mike Estes (acoustic guitar); Gary Rossington (acoustic & National guitars); Ed King (acoustic guitar, mandolin); Billy Powell (piano); Leon Wilkeson (acoustic bass); Owen Hale (drums, percussion); Debbie Davis, Dale Krantz-Rossington (background vocals).
Additional personnel: Wendall Mobley (background vocals).

| | Lynyrd Skynyrd One More From The Road: 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition CDs (1976) Deluxe Edition
Acoustic music CDs
$20.59 Recorded live at the Fox Theater, Atlanta, Georgia in July 1976. Originally released on MCA (6001). Includes original liner notes by Cameron Crowe and reissue liner notes Ron O'Brien.
Digitally remastered by Doug Schwartz (Audio Mechanics, Los Angles, California).
The '70s was the era of the live album--it seemed like just about every rock band used the format to bolster its career. But Lynyrd Skynyrd was already established as the premier Southern rock outfit by the time of its 1976 in-concert double album, ONE MORE FROM THE ROAD. What this release did was serve as proof that the non-stop touring the band had been indulging in since the dawn of the decade had made them an untouchable, rock-solid live act.
These renditions show that the band poured its heart and soul into its live set--the moving "Tuesday's Gone" is even more gut wrenching than its studio incarnation. "Saturday Night Special" is just as fierce, and "Sweet Home Alabama" takes on a party atmosphere, while the near 12-minute album closing "Free Bird" stretches to even more epic proportions than the studio version.

| | Texas Tornados Live From The Limo Vol. 1 CD (1999)
Acoustic CD music
$12.15 Recorded live at Antone's, Austin, Texas on December 18 & 19, 1998.
The four principals in this band all arrived with long and impressive backgrounds. Doug Sahm, Augie Meyers, Freddie Fender, and Flaco Jimenez had produced a fine catalog of four studio albums before releasing this, their first live album. As great as the studio albums are, it's rich and dazzling to hear them performing in front of a live audience. To make it even better, they're in their home state of Texas, playing at one of their favorite venues, Antone's in Austin. A four-piece band and an additional three-piece horn section accompany the quartet. With Sahm as the gracious and freewheeling host, the Tornados roll through popular selections. Sahm and Fender's duet on the choruses of "South of the Border" is worth the price of admission on its own. They even dip back to Sahm and Meyer's Sir Douglas Quintet days for "Mendocino."
The Texas Tornadoes: Doug Sahm (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Freddy Fender (vocals, guitar); Augie Meyers (vocals, accordion, Vox organ, keyboards); Flaco Jimenez (vocals, accordion).
Engineers: Phil Mezetti, Malcom Harper, Greg Klinginsmith.
