Lynyrd Skynyrd
LYNYRD SKYNYRD. American rock band best known for popularizing the Southern rock genre during the 1970s. The band gained worldwide recognition for its live performances and signature songs "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Freebird". At the peak of their success, the band were involved in a tragic aircrash on October 20th 1977 in Mississipi. Ronnie Van Zant & Steve Gaines, along with backup singer Cassie Gaines (Steve's older sister), assistant road manager Dean Kilpatrick, pilot Walter McCreary and co-pilot William Gray were all killed on impact. Other band members (Collins, Rossington, Wilkeson, Powell, Pyle, and Hawkins), tour manager Ron Eckerman and several road crew suffered serious injuries. The accident put an abrupt end to the band's most popular lineup. The surviving band members reformed in 1987 for a reunion tour with lead vocalist Johnny Van Zant (the younger brother of lead singer and founder Ronnie). Lynyrd Skynyrd were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 13th 2006. To date they have sold over 28 million records in the United States alone.
