The legacy of Lynyrd Skynyrd, 40 years after plane crash tragedy

Wendy GellerSenior Editor, Yahoo Entertainment

It’s hard to believe that four decades have passed since one of rock’s best-known tragedies occurred. On Oct. 20, 1977, a chartered Convair CV-240 plane carrying Lynyrd Skynyrd — in the midst of a headlining tour and having released their fifth album, Street Survivors, three days prior — crashed in a Gillsburg, Miss., swamp after running out of fuel.

The toll was dire. Three band members (Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines, and backup singer Cassie Gaines, Steve’s older sister) perished; the others were all severely injured. Drummer Artimus Pyle, one of the few survivors able to walk, staggered out for help and was allegedly shot at by an alarmed farmer. Record label MCA scrambled to replace Skynyrd’s Street Survivors album cover, which eerily forecast the accident by depicting the band members engulfed in flames.

For Ellie Greenwich, who co-wrote some of the most enduring songs of the 1960s, including but not limited to . .

. . . and, who discovered and co-produced the early records of . . .


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyLY7i4kMYI

didn’t come into the business to be known; I came into the business to write songs. My
peers in the industry knew who I was. My songs were hits, I was making some good money,
I was doing what I loved to do. I didn’t care if the public knew who I was or not.

---Ellie Greenwich.

She was the greatest melody writer of all time.---Brian Wilson.

The one time Ellie Greenwich sought attention for what she did, during her hitmaking
years, she got aboard a New York subway and saw and hear a group of kids singing
"Chapel of Love" for about 20 minutes. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore. She smiled
and told them, "Excuse me, but I wrote that song." The kids cracked up and one of them
hollered, "Sure you did, Blondie." They quit laughing when Greenwich showed them her
driver's license and suggested they look at the record label when they got home.

RIP George Young, guitarist/songwriter/co-founder of the Easybeats, later co-producer
of a little band his two kid brothers created---AC/DC.

I wouldn't trade this, the all-time TGIF rock and roll song, for AC/DC's entire
obnoxious catalog . . .


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ9BCrFgRvs

. . . but there was way more to the Easybeats than just their lone hit to cross the oceans
and hit big in America:
