And that is the magic of fine songwriting combined with inspired musicianship.
Skynyrd's version and the delighted reception it got at Knebworth can be found on YouTube.
Don't want to get too off thread here but another great songwriter who has had tons of folks cover his tunes is Willis Allen Ramsey. He reminds me of JJ Cale in that respect. Strangly almost all the tunes were on one record he did in 1972 while borrowing Leon Russell's studio.
stonesrule and mr_dja I think you'all would really dig this guy. The tunes Satin Sheets and Northeast Texas Women are particularly sweet with the later being one fine example of jug music at it's best. I can just imagine Skynyrd turning one of his tunes into their own classic. peace
