OU: They're all electric. You get to hear Allen Collins teaching Steve Gaines how to play specific parts to the songs.
Bootlegzone.com: Now here's a curious one. Needless to say, something like this would be ridiculously easy to fake. Any schmuck with a guitar processor and a cheap 4-track could do this. There's intermittent talking and chatter going on in the background, but no sign of Van Zant, whose presence would obviously greatly help to authenticate these recordings. Also, why Skynryd would be working on songs already recorded and officially released years before the stated 1976 date is beyond me. The last track is Skynyrd, a couple of notches down in sound quality.

Thanks Dave, for all you do...
Thanks Dave, being wanting this in lossless for ages. Merry Christmas. VC
Thanks, Dave. This stuff is great. A bit rough, but completely core.
Happy New Year! Any chance you can find the Skynyrd show from 1974 in Paris as it has a live version of an unreleased song called Road Fatigue on it. Cheers VC.
This one is for real. Ronnie probably wasn't there, that's why he can't be heard. Steve had just joined and the band was about to go on the road, that's why Allen's teaching him the parts. The voice saying "you got it" is Allen's, and the person singing softly in the background is Steve's sister, Cassie.
Any chance you could get your hands on San Francisco 03-07-76?
Awesome site! Love it!
Steve was being put through the paces for the Live album, Allen was the one in charge of showing him the specific sections and rhythms, Gaines did about three shows before doing the Live at the Fox concert.
