And to think Billy wasn’t originally in the band. He was kinda hanging around and being a roadie and they heard him playing one night and one of them said maybe we need a piano player and Ronnie said we need that piano player. He is essential to that sound that is only lynyrd skynyrd and an unbelievable talent. I was lucky enough to meet him twice and those are in my top memories of my life.

I would argue that "Pronounced" holds up right up there at or near the top of the list as one of the classic rock era's greatest debut albums by any band of the era. Just look at the list of hits that Pronounced spawned that remained staples of the live set even after the band reformed and went on in 1987 after the plane crash. I Ain't The One, Gimme Three Steps, Things Goin' On, Simple Man, Tuesday's Gone, & Free Bird all debuted from Skynyrd's Freshman effort in the studio, which is incredible if you start thinking how often many of those songs are still being played to this very day on FM Radio stations across the country, around the clock. My description of Skynyrd has always been "the greatest redneck, from the wrong side of the tracks orchestra" that rock has ever produced.
