The guitar solo in Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" is primarily played by Allen Collins, who also co-wrote the song with Ronnie Van Zant. While Collins handles the main solo, Gary Rossington plays the slide guitar part in the first half and contributes to the rhythm guitar. #lynyrdskynyrd #fans #love #band #guitar #piano #drums #music #concert #rock #reelsfypシ #Amazing | Lynyrd Skynyrd Fans

In Memoriam: Guitarist Gary Rossington was the last founding member of 2006 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees Lynyrd Skynyrd. Rossington provided the rhythm and smoother, soaring slide guitar sounds of the band's powerful three-guitar line-up. His iconic solo on “Free Bird" is one of rock & roll’s most recognizable — and pervades popular culture. rockfa.me/LYNYRDSKYNYRD | Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
