Red White & Blue (Live) [Digipack]

The Van Zant clan from Jacksonville, Florida has been called The First Family of Southern Rock. Over the years, the Van Zant familyâ€™s recordings have unquestionably impacted both fans and contemporaries alike on a worldwide level, among multiple generations. Brothers Johnny (Lynyrd Skynyrd) and Donnie (38 Special) joined together over twenty years ago to delve deep into the familyâ€™s country-tinged roots and formed Van Zant. The two were inspired by the fact that their late brother, Ronnie, the spiritual leader and original lead vocalist and chief songwriter for Lynyrd Skynyrd, had always wanted to do a country record. â€œLetâ€™s do it for him,â€ avowed the brothers. Red White & Blue (Live) is a recently unearthed live Van Zant show recorded on January 28, 2006 at Wild Adventures Theme Park in Valdosta, Georgia. It is the only concert recording in existence from the only tour by the brothers. From the exuberance on crowd-pleasers like â€œTakinâ€™ Up Spaceâ€ and â€œMy Kinda Countryâ€ to the heartfelt message of their big Country Singles chart hit â€œHelp Somebodyâ€ (which hit #7 in 2005) to the butt-kicking versions of 38 Specialâ€™s â€œWild Eyed Southern Boysâ€ and Lynyrd Skynyrdâ€™s â€œCall Me the Breezeâ€ and â€œSweet Home Alabama,â€ the Van Zant brothers are clearly firing proud and true on all cylinders. One of the most telling lines from the title track, â€œRed White & Blueâ€ â€” a song the Van Zants wrote but first appeared on Lynyrd Skynyrdâ€™s 2003 album, Vicious Cycle â€” is, â€œWeâ€™re trying to sing the truth to you.â€ That line alone encapsulates exactly why the Van Zants have always had such a deep connection with their audiences. The Van Zantsâ€™ significant contribution to southern rock, country and popular music across the board have created an unparalleled legacy. They may even be The First Family of American Music. It doesnâ€™t get any more Red White & Blue than that.
