I want to Thank all of Lynyrd Skynyrd for the greatest new record put out by anyone in a long time!
This record has been played none stop since a picked it up.
The Band has never sounded better.
Yes, Like the rest of the world I love L.S. music! But this record is over the top. Johnny,Gary, Ricky, and the rest have pulled no punches. I have been waiting to hear a record that I could not put down and here it is!

Thank you for God and Guns! And I hope we have many more L.S. records! The world really does need them in these times!

Time to crank-up God an Guns again,

Awesome post! It's amazing how "addicitive" the CD is!!

Greetings all! I am brand new - first post. I am 51 years old, live in Cincinnati, Ohio. I saw the band twice before the plane crash, once since. Am listening to the new Cd as I write this. I found out about the new cd from reading a classic rock blog in which Mick Box (guitarist for Uriah Heep) was talking about how good the cd is. I have to admit that I haven't bought any of the band's music since the 70's until now. I will go back and buy the back catalogue of their stuff now that I know more about their music and them since those days. I also have to admit that I'm more drawn to their music now because of their political stance and how they feel about this country. I found on youtube their appearances on Hannity and the fact that they are headlining the 'Freedom Tour' which I will catch here in Cincy. As a retired veteran having served in two different branches of the military, I am very glad to see there is someone else in the business (besides Nugent) who stands up and stands for America! The new cd sounds great! . . . Cheers!

Trilok, I guess the question is.... Where've you been??

The band has been out there kickin' ass for all of us and never disappointing. Every show they give 100% energy...

I'm a "Second Generation" Skynyrd fan... First show, Worcester, Ma 1987 The Reunion Tour... Now nearing my 46th show coming this November in CT... Next one will be on the SImpleman Cruise 2010, and hopefully many more...

This album is GREAT!!!! It has a little bit of everything from rock, country etc... Focuses on God, Family, Frynds and Country... What more do you need??

It is good to see them push the envelope on this cd. Pretty much every song means something...

Lastly I have to say a BIG "THANK YOU" for your service to our country...
It's people like yourself that let us do and say what we want... Unlike some other countries...

I have followed skynyrd since they began, then ever since after the crash ,I did not know what I was going to think at first about a whole new 12 song cd,well I say you have done it skynyrd ,its just the greatest, I play it every day and sleep with my head phones on every night ,I can't get enough of it ,and thank god that I have tix for the Nov.6th concert in Evansville,IN show,can't wait to hear the songs live ,thanks skynyrd for putting more of your music out to us fans.

@Trilok: I want to agree with medwaysimpleman about "thanking you" for your service to our country! My Dad has always set the greatest example for me about taking the time to say "thank you" to ANYONE he sees in uniform. He will do this at a store, at a resturaunt, anywhere.
So......I am following my Dad's example by reaching out across this message board and saying "THANK YOU"!!

And thank you all for caring. Your words mean a lot to me. It was my pleasure and privilige to serve. I'm sure there are many on this board who served and I thank them all as well. Even if you didn't serve, I think everyone on this board is a good tax paying citizen and in doing so you are serving the country as well, so my thanks to all of you.

I just bought the CD yesterday and can't quit playing it either. It's AWESOME! Great songs that have so much meaning and a few that really touched me deeply, like "Storm"! "The sun is gonna shine and the rain won't fall, the storm is gonna pass." Wow - brought tears to my eyes, gave me some hope through these rough times. It's just a storm that will eventually pass". Absolutely love "Gifted Hands" too. They are all great songs!! Thank you Lynyrd Skynyrd!!! You are and have always been the BOMB!!! We love you and God bless you all!
