There is no bad Lynyrd Skynyrd August 7, 2007
chuck white (Lufkin, Tx)
This cd is just the second album recorded after the plane crash. It's the end of Artimus Pyle's drumming, & helps re-establish Lynyrd Skynyrd as the greatest Southern Rock band of all time. Some fans have to realize in order to go on new members have to be added. Johnny is not tryin to be his brother, just himself. This album is a really good one. Just put it on and listen to the music, it's pure Lynyrd Skynyrd. There will always be some songs that are better than others, it's that way with all bands, but you can hear the LS heart beating, and that's all it takes to know they are still rocking.
 Best Johnny Van Zant era Skynyrd album June 3, 2007
A. Koncelik (Islip Terrace, NY United States)
To alot of people Lynyrd Skynyrd died when on Oct 20, 1977 when it took the life Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines, Cassie Gaines, Dean Kilpatrick, Walter McCreary and William Gray. This is not the case and "The Last Rebel" proves that.
Johnny stepped up to the mic and fill his brother's shoes on vocals. Granted Johnny does not have the songwriting ability Ronnie did, but vocally there is no better fit. The lineup on this album, Johnny Van Zant - vocals, Gary Rossington - guitar, Ed King - guitar, Randall Hall- guitar, Billy Powell - piano, Leon Wilkeson - bass, Kurt Custer- drums, is one the BEST Skynyrd lineups post-crash.
This is the second album of new new material, Lynyrd Skynyrd 1991 being the first. This is by far the BEST collection of songs since Johnny took over singing. As one reviewer stated , this more on the country side. The songs are typical , blue collar Skynyrd songs that connect with just about anyone. This is a very underrated album in the whole Skynyrd catalog.
The songs on "The Last Rebel" sound like something that the original band could have recorded back in the 70's. They are fun, rockin' and tell a story. The songs will connect with the common man who want that small town values and morals to be a part of life.
You have typical Skynyrd songs that would fit with the original band - "Good Lovin's Hard To Find" , "Ouuta Hell In My Dodge" , and "Kiss Your Freedom Goodbye" . Songs that recall the ideals of the South - "South Of Heaven". "The Last Rebel" and "Born To Run" are some of the best ones on here. But my favorite is "Can't Take That Away" , which a lot of dumb people in this country want done like taking God out of things and doing away with the Pledge Of Allegiance.
 The BEST post-Ronnie album released by Skynyrd since '77 March 3, 2007
J. Owens (TEXAS,USA)
As a Good Texan and True Blue Southern Boy,my feelings toward this CD is that it's phenomenal. This is undoubtably their best release as the re-vamped Skynyrd. The Last Rebel and Born To Run will send chills up your spine,I promise. The first track,Good Lovin's Hard To Find, is the perfect opener.Followed by the ode to self respect and being hungry for life and never giving up,the song,One Thing. Can't take That Away is a simple,gospel influenced tune that speaks to so much truth. Best Things In Life is southern rocker that tells it like it is. Tracks 6,7 and 8 are the weakest tunes,but that is really nit-picking,based on the fact that the previous songs are so good.
The production on this album is VERY well done,brought to us by by Barry Beckett.
I usually don't spend this much time on reviews,but this CD deserves it's just due.
BUY THIS CD,if you are a Skynrd fan,or if you love the sounds of the SouthLands!
