Prompted by comments on this thread, I just now listened to “Free Bird” for the first time in my life, and I wasn’t impressed. I don’t understand why it’s considered “iconic,” or why it was even a hit. Cutting it down to about three minutes would have been an improvement.

Fiji,

Yeah, I never heard of it either, but I’m a Philistine who doesn’t know very much about music. I wish I had more time for artists, but I don’t.

Maybe try “Silver Bird” by Mark Lindsay, its about 3 minutes.

Let me guess. You’re not an Allman Brothers Band fan, either? Nor Marshall Tucker Band, or a few others I could name?

If you don’t get Southern jam bands, that’s OK.
