They're a great classic rock band that, unlike many others, survived the test of time. Don't get me wrong, there are 100s of bands that are better than Skynard but I agree that they don't get te recognition they deserve.
One thing I hate about them is that most of their fans my age (I'm 19) say they love Skynard, but can't list three songs that don't come on the radio (i.e., Sweet Home, Freebird, Give Me Three Steps, and What's that Smell)
If you haven't heard All I Can Do is Write About It, Curtis Lowe, Coming Home, Call me the Breeze, Four Walls of Raiford (spelling?), or Simple Kind of Man you need to download them.

PS: Next person that calls them racist kick them in the nuts - Van Zant said in an interview that you don't have to be black to be a nigger, and he often refered to himself as "a nigger"
