What a terrible day. Stevie Gaines had just joined the band after being introduced to them by Cassie. Street Survivors is such a great album. You can tell Ronnie thought a lot of Stevie by including his songs on the album and letting him share lead vocals.

The band kind of lost their way for about a year after Ed King left. They fell into a funk and weren’t happy with their sound, song writing, or live performances.

Steve Gaines reinvigorated the band when he joined. He changed the whole dynamic of the band, and they were set up for years of superstardom.

Just realized 1977 was a tragic year for musicians. 8/16/1977 - Elvis Presley dies 10/20/1977 - Lynyrd Skynyrd's plane crash
