Lynyrd Skynyrd was the definitive Southern rock band, fusing the overdriven power of blues-rock
with a rebellious Southern image and a hard rock swagger.
Skynyrd never relied on the jazzy improvisations of the Allman Brothers.
Instead, they were a hard-living, hard-driving rock & roll band -- they may have jammed endlessly on-stage,
but their music remained firmly entrenched in blues, rock, and country

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
The Allman Brothers came first, but Lynyrd Skynyrd epitomized Southern rock.
The Allmans were exceptionally gifted musicians, as much bluesmen as rockers.
Skynyrd was nothing but rockers, and they were Southern rockers to the bone.
This didn't just mean that they were rednecks, but that they brought it all together -- the blues, country, garage rock,
Southern poetry -- in a way that sounded more like the South than even The Allmans.
And a large portion of that derives from their hard, lean edge, which was nowhere more apparent
than on their debut album, Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd. Produced by Al Kooper, there are few records
that sound this raw and uncompromising, especially records by debut bands.
Then again, few bands sound this confident and fully formed with their first record. Perhaps the record
is stronger because it's only eight songs, so there isn't a wasted moment, but that doesn't discount the sheer
strength of each song. It's the birth of a great band that birthed an entire genre with this album...(AllMusic)
