Lynyrd Skynyrd - First and Last - 1970-72 (1978)
"Skynyrd's First And Last" was a posthumous album collecting the band's recording not included in other studio albums. Although it was recorded primarily between 1970 and 1972, this isn't just a relic for Lynyrd Skynyrd fans. A triumphant but ironic final chapter, it measures the extent of the tragedy of the group's demise. The density of the guitars/drums/vocals interplay, and the raw edge of intensity that dominates everything here, are simply Lynyrd Skynyrd at their peak. While the naiveté of some of the album's political songs ("Lend a Helpin' Hand," "Things Goin' On") would normally date them, they serve here as examples of the forthright exposition of American working-class attitudes. "Was I Right or Wrong", had it been released earlier, might have become their anthem. The story is classic. Against his parents' wishes, a young rocker sets out to seek his fortune. His dreams come true, but when he returns home to see his folks (the people he most wanted to convince of his abilities), he learns they're dead. There's an archetypal starkness to this tale–comparable only to Bruce Springsteen's "Adam Raised a Cain" - that makes it hard to believe the song is only a fantasy. But Van Zant didn't even have a record contract when he wrote it. This is great music, not only for those who loved this group, but for everyone who's ever endured a painful, inarticulate relationship with his or her parents. It's exactly the sort of thing Lynyrd Skynyrd deserves to be remembered for...Dichter Nebel
