Hey long timer Skynyrd fan. Saw them three times in 1976 1977. I want to write a book about Allen Collins-greatest raw guitarist that I have ever seen. Can you help me out?
Give me three steps does not smoke cat scratch fever. Give me three steps is one of the most boring Lynyrd Skynyrd songs I've ever heard and I am a big fan of Lynyrd Skynyrd but it is a highly predictable song with a boring bass line. But that's just my opinion.
Uncle Ted wrote CSF coming out in 77 Give me 3 steps came out in 73. Steve Vest has inhaled to much Swamp Gas. Saw Ted same time outside of Lauderdale. Did jump off his amps,wore his loincloth and fired his arrows across stage into bales of hay. Oh,and the big hit was Journey to the Center of Your Mind and Ted played the s*it out of that 6 string!
And Who is Jimi’s favorite guitar player?? He toured with him before his own band formed. Rev. Billy F.Gibbons of ZZ Top. Lead guitar player for “the moving sidewalk” before ZZ.It’s here on Y/T just search Jimi’s favorite guitar player. Billy is asked the question if he knew he was Jimi’s favorite and he says like the gentlemen he is”Yes I’ve heard that. We were very good friends”.
If I knew Ronnie I would have liked him according to what Steve is saying. The word is out he was a mean drunk. So are a lot of us. "Don't Be Drinking When Your Mad". Thanks Steve. Your are very articulate......
I love you my brother but Ted Nugent is straight Rock and you would compare Ted Nugent to Johnny Van Zant in a better example. and another thing is is I have ultimate respect for the Van zandt family and as a Yankee I think that the Confederacy needs to back off because you're causing lack of unity based on a principal you will fight to the death over but yet you will bow down when it comes to hemp and let your families go to jail so it's not about who's tough or who's better at this point because just like Ford Chevy Dodge they're all good. again no offense my brother but the best flags are the Gadsden flag and the straight up American flag and I appreciate you the best and wish you and your family and friends all the goodness 🇺🇲🌀💥🍍💜
Really wish you would take this down about Bob. I gigged with Bob for 20 years on Atlanta. Show Bob some respect and dignity and quit making crap like this..n
Written by the polarizing Nugent in 1977, the song was released on May 13 of that year. It boasts a rambunctious, even party-like electric guitar riff, which is what helped make the recording famous. Nugent comes in sounding like a stadium rock band singer in the style of AC/DC. His voice hypnotizes and the guitar riffs do, too. But beyond the musicality, the song, of course, is about sex-the cat being a thinly veiled concept for a woman and the fever being lust. As Nugent plays shrieking guitar leads, he sings: I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand They know they gettin’ it from me They know just where to go When they need their lovin’ man They know I do it for free
Something ain't right here. Amboy Dukes broke up in 1971. Cat Scratch Fever was written in early 1976 and released in May 1977. So how did the Amboy Dukes play Cat Scratch Fever in 1970 when the song did not exist until 1977?
Don’t take no genius to understand what Mr Van Zant was like as a human being. Just listen to his story’s sung with the music. Since I was a kid I’ve known what Skynyrd was about. This gentleman and his storied facts, are pure folk tale gold.
