Centered on a sardonic take on record companies, this track is a fan favorite from Lynyrd Skynyrd’s album Second Helping, released in April 1974.

Its hard-edged guitar layered over a crawling bass and drums, paired with a melody that’s both aggressive and catchy, makes it a number that practically compels you to move and showcases the evolution of hard rock.

It’s also beloved by many rock fans as a staple for warming up the stage at live shows.

With its cranked, distorted guitar sound, this song is perfect for anyone who wants to experience the raw energy of a live performance and discover a different kind of appeal from more mainstream rock.
