It would of been killer to have seem pre-plane crash. LS is in my top 10 of favorite groups for their pre-crash work. I imagine they will replace him and keep hammering on though..........

PhilCastro Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Very sad news. I grew up with a Huge Lynyrd Skynyrd influence from my dad. He was a huge fan, and he especially loved Powell's work. He was a terrific pianist. His solo in Call Me The Breeze is most excellent its sad to see him go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
