The free event is from 5 to 7 p.m. and includes a complimentary tour of the museum, which is in Tuscumbia at 617 U.S. 72 West. For the event, the Alabama Music Hall of Fame’s assembled a display of photos from Lynyrd Skynyrd’s early recording sessions at Sheffield’s Muscle Shoals Sound Studios. Of course the lyrics were also a response to Canadian folk-rocker Neil Young’s finger-pointing songs “Southern Man” and “Alabama.” “We didn’t like him cutting down Southern guys,” Rossington says in the Skynyrd doc.
Lynyrd Skynyrd performed at the Alabama Music Hall of Fame in 2001. Burroughs says she’s “been in touch with the band’s manager and hope to get them booked here for an event soon.” Alabama born guitarist known for his work with Brother Cane, Alice Cooper and Thin Lizzy now a member of Lynyrd Skynyrd
