A Good Comeback

This is the first album the band has released since the crash (as Lynyrd Skynyrd). We have on this album original guitarists Garry Rossington, Ed King, and Leon Wilkenson as well as keyboardist Billy Powell and drummer Artimus Pyle from the original Skynyrd, joined by Ronnie's brother Johnny Van Zant on lead vocals and Randall Hall filling in for Allen Collins. When you first listen to this album, if you're expecting Street Survivors or Second Helping, you may be slightly disappointed. But I think you can learn to like this album. It has some really good songs, along with a few average and a few not-so-good songs.

The hilights of this CD are: "Smokestack Lightning", "Pure & Simple", "Good Thing", "Money Man", & "Backstreet Crawler".

The rest are decent too. The only songs that I don't care for are "It's A Killer" and "I've Seen Enough".

Again, if you're expecting the original Skynyrd, you may be disappointed, but if you just sit back and listen to the CD, you will probably enjoy it. The musicians are still just as good on their instruments as they were before the plane crash, and Johnny does some great singing for us.

Love at first hearing

This album is not the best of Lynyrd Skynyrd. But it was their first album I bought in 1992 and in a month I was a proud owner of all previous Lynyrd Skynyrd album. And this was mission impossible in 1992 in Hungary. That's why this album one of my favourites. Thank you guys.

Great Skynyrd

1991 is Lynyrd Skynyrd's studio comeback album fourteen years after the crash, but there are a couple of not-so-great songs. But the good stuff includes the resolved " Keeping The Faith", the socially-conscious "I've Seen Enough" and "It's A Killer", the angry "Good Thing" and the statement-of-purpose ballad "End Of The Road." This great Skynyrd album is better than people think.
