Lex's First Time Hearing Lynyrd Skynyrd 🎵 Free Bird Reaction
YouTube ^ | 2021 | Brad & Lex

Posted on 12/31/2025 5:10:43 AM PST by Bikkuri

A "Reaction Video" from a "reaction" couple, which are great (Bikkuri personal opinion, and one of my favorite couples)...

They have been one of my favorites to watch.. a different generation, whom no one would expect to even listen to our generation, nor type of music..

(I avoid 'U-Tube' as much as possible, but some things can't be avoided.)

Brad is always serious, inspecting the music, while Lex is is a bubbly, simple type of girl, or so you think. Lex can sometimes see something in the music that Brad misses.. and together, they are a great team, and they bring back music from when I was a kid, and put new perspectives on it.

This was my personal opinion (Bikkuri/Bikk), with no help, and I honestly hope that many other FReepers gain an interest in watching these vids from a younger perspective on the stuff we used to listen to.

It also lets us escape from the politics that sometimes separate us.

Younger FReepers may not understand the value of music, but just watching younger generations actually getting into it is very satisfying.. 😃

Lets get away from conflict for a day (thread), and enjoy our past, present, and hopefully, our future.

BTW, I believe I suggested a once a week thread for Reaction Vids a few months ago..
Never really got a ‘reaction’ to it... but I think it would be a good idea to lighten things up around here.

Maybe have one of us (any FReeper) to get it going.

A little off your topic but a little lynyrd skynyrd trivia most aren’t familiar with.

My wife’s dad was a recording engineer in Jacksonville fl. in THE 60s and 70s. He heard a band calling themselves “The One Percent” playing in a small bar and liked their sound so he proposed they come to his recording studio and lay down some tracks.

Six songs were recorded, one of those being none other than Freebird.

That band later changed their name to lynyrd skynyrd, was eventually picked up by recording giant MCA and the rest is as they say history.

No good without the Rebel flags, halter topped babes and cold beer.

Man, very interesting history there.. con you give us more info?

There is so much to learn in the music world.. (I actually met Selina when she was doing a quinceanera in a West Texas town.. she was about 15yo then)..

So many people here, and so much to share.

Lol. I’m not alone then. Sometimes I have to turn the phone volume down and sneak off for a bit to avoid my wife’s heavy sighs.

"to avoid my wife’s heavy sighs"


Of frustration, or of lack of attention? (Women are Macs, Men are PCs.. not the same programming).

Shade Tree records was my father in laws recording company.

Co-owned by Tom Markham.

Jim Sutton being my wife’s dad, he passed away in 2015 and my wife is now co-owner of Shade Tree records.

Keep in mind this was circa 1969/1970. Recording technology wasn’t what it is today and the band was relatively new so it’s not too polished.

You can hear the first Freebird recording here and if you drill down on the description you will see

Producer: Tom Markham
Producer: Jim Sutton
Composer Lyricist: Allen Collins
Composer Lyricist: Ronnie Van Zant
