  • Whiskey Soaked and Hell Bound. Lynyrd Skynyrd and Southern Culture
    WHISKEY SOAKED AND HELL BOUND: LYNYRD SKYNYRD AND SOUTHERN CULTURE CECIL K. HUTSON lowa State University (Resumen) Aunque el grupo sureño Lynyrd Skynyrd alcanzó audiencia nacional por su especial modo de hacer rock del sur, en toda su carrera se aprecia una fuerte defensa de los valores tradionales de la cultura sureña. La bandera confederada en todas sus portadas, el orgullo regional, el agrarianismo rural, y la apología al macho sureño, todo ello proyectado en violencia y provocación, convirtieron al grupo en paradigma del conservadurismo del Viejo Sur. Unlike other hard rock groups, the legendary Southern rock and roll band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, did not emerge from the urban ghettos of such cities as London or New York, instead it came out of the rural South. This "rough and tough and plenty mean" Southern band utilized regional cultural traits to become one of the best hard rock bands that the South ever produced. In 1974 Melody Maker, a major rock and roll trades magazine, claimed that Lynyrd Skynyrd's "brand" of Southern rock music had swept across the Southern states. Band members and Southemers, Ronnie Van Zant, Alien Collins, Gary Rossington, Billy Powell, León Wilkeson, Artimus Pyle and Steve Gaines understood the mind-set of the young rural Southemers who listened to their music; thus they were able to speak for a generation of young Southern men. Lynyrd Skynyrd merits study as a major element of Southern popular culture because it had a significant influence on rock 'n' roll. In fact, the band has been labeled as "one of the most

  • City of Jacksonville, Florida
    WHEREAS: In 1964, a group of Jacksonville teenagers - Ronnie Van Zant, Bob Burns, Gary Rossington, Allen Collins and Larry Junstrom - formed a band they called My Backyard; and WHEREAS: After numerous local and regional gigs and a few different monikers, the group finally settled on the name Lynyrd Skynyrd, a mocking tribute to their former gym teacher at Robert E. Lee High School, Leonard Skinner; and WHEREAS: By 1973, the band had achieved national recognition following the release of its debut album, (pronounced 'leh-'nerd 'skin-'nerd), which featured the anthem "Free Bird"; and WHEREAS: Furthering its status as a pioneer of the Southern rock genre, Lynyrd Skynyrd's sophomore album, Second Helping (1974), included one of the band's biggest hits, "Sweet Home Alabama"; and WHEREAS: On October 20, 1977, tragedy struck when three band members died in an airplane crash, including founding member Van Zant. A decade-long hiatus followed; and WHEREAS: When Lynyrd Skynyrd announced a reunion tour in 1987, it included Van Zant's brother, Johnny, as lead singer, and five former members of the band, including one founding member, Rossington. The reunited group continued to make music, releasing nine more albums through 2012; and WHEREAS: On May 4, 2018, Lynyrd Skynyrd embarked on the "Last of the Street Survivors Farewell Tour." The band makes a last stop in its hometown, Jacksonville, on September 2. NOW, THEREFORE, I, LENNY CURRY, by virtue of the authority vested in me as mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, do hereby proclaim September 2, 2018 as LYNYRD SKYNYRD DAY in Jacksonville and recognize the band's historical and indelible impact upon our city, the Southern rock genre, and music as a whole.
