Lynyrd Skynyrd "Four Walls Of Raiford" My Opinion Story About This Song

In this video I respond to an email request about a statement I made in a previous video about Allen, Gary, Leon, and Billy "stomping" all over some music.

So I had great difficulty in gathering my thoughts on this story and how to approach it, but rather than write a lengthy email about it I decided to do an opinion video about it.

So please keep in mind what is said in this video is just my opinion and nothing else. And I am using a tripod this time to help improve the video.

If Ronnie Van Zant had wanted Allen, Gary, Leon and Billy to play on 4 Walls Of Raiford, I believe Ronnie would have called them at time of recording that song, but Ronnie did not call any of them. He called only Jeff Carlisi. Ronnie did NOT want Allen, Gary, Leon, and Billy on that song or he would have called them. So what Allen, Gary, Leon and Billy did was for themselves, not for Ronnie. They stomped all over Ronnie and Steve's music without their consent nearly 10 years after perishing in plane crash.

***CORRECTIONS: I said in video photo of Kevin Elson and Ronnie Van Zant was on a plane. I don't think it was a plane in looking at the curtains. Was it a tour bus? I am not sure right now. But I think I made an error calling it a plane.

And I made a second mistake simply not reading what the letter said. I said it was to Alex Coolie but it said Alex Hodges of Paragon Agency. A spur of the moment mistake of not reading the letter as I made this video. Ooooops!
