Description
Street Survivors is the fifth studio album by the Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd, released on October 17, 1977. The LP is the last Skynyrd album recorded by original members Ronnie Van Zant and Allen Collins, and is the sole Skynyrd studio recording by guitarist Steve Gaines. Three days after the album's release, the band's chartered airplane crashed en route to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, killing the pilot, co-pilot, the group's assistant road-manager and three band members (Van Zant, Gaines, and Gaines' older sister, backup singer Cassie Gaines), and severely injuring most who survived the crash.
The album was an instant success, achieving gold certification just 10 days after its release. It would later go double platinum (2 million copies sold). The album peaked at no. 5 on the US Billboard Top 200 chart (the band's highest-charting album), as did the singles "What's Your Name" and "That Smell," the former a top-20 hit on the singles chart.
The listing is a first pressing of Lynyrd Skynyrd's album "Street Survivors" released in 1977 by MCA Records. This 12" vinyl LP features Southern Rock music in stereo, with a black color and original cover. The album has a run time of 35:26 and is classified under the genres of Rock, Southern Rock, Rock 'n' Roll, and Blues. This 1970s era record is a valuable addition to any vinyl collection for fans of classic rock music.
