Lynyrd Skynyrd-Second Helping (MCA) 1974
1. "Sweet Home Alabama" (4:42)
2. "I Need You" (6:54)
3. "Don't Ask Me No Questions" (3:24)
4. "Workin' for MCA" (4:46)
5. "Ballad of Curtis Loew" (4:45)
6. "Swamp Music" (3:29)
7. "Needle and the Spoon" (3:52)
8. "Call Me the Breeze" (5:23)
This was actually their second cd, but it is also their finest. "Second Helping" is full of great southern rock jams like "Working for MCA, " "Call Me the Breeze, " "Swamp Music," "Don't Ask Me No Questions, " and "Ballad of Curtis Loew." That's not even counting the chart topping "Sweet Home Alabama." Waited forever to find a copy of this used. Finally found one for $4.99.
Lynyrd Skynyrd-Twenty (CMC) 1997
1. "We Ain't Much Different" (3:44)
2. "Bring It On" (4:56)
3. "Voodoo Lake" (4:37)
4. "Home Is Where the Heart Is" (5:26)
5. "Travelin' Man" (4:05)
6. "Talked Myself Right into It" (3:25)
7. "Never Too Late" (5:18)
8. "O.R.R." (4:16)
9. "Blame It on a Sad Song" (5:35)
10. "Berneice" (4:01)
11. "None of Us Are Free" (5:21)
12. "How Soon We Forget" (4:50)
Album number twenty for a band who has been to hell and back. For "Twenty" the group added two new members ex-Blackfoot Ricky Medlocke and former Outlaw Hughie Thomasson making the group a virtual Southern rock supergroup. I suppose some people feel this is a bad thing, but to be quite honest, I think "Twenty" is a good listen. Perhaps it will not gain them many new fans, but old fans should be satisfied as the disc is full of Southern rock and roll.
