SUPER RARE DEMO VERSION OF FREE BIRD

This is the original demo version of Free Bird.

Free Bird is a rock anthem by the American rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. Starting out as a slow piano ballad, it features gospel-flavored organ, chirping slide guitar, and an approximately four and a quarter minute long guitar solo in the form of an up-tempo guitar duel. It made the charts on numerous occasions in both the U.S. and UK but only reached #19 in the U.S. Billboard charts. The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1988 when it was mixed with Peter Frampton's "Baby, I Love Your Way" by the band Will to Power. The original version of the song was recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. The live version is also Lynyrd Skynyrd's longest song.
