knightni Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 http://www.cmt.com/news/country-music/1603...ead-at-56.jhtml Interesting to note: Lynyrd Skynyrd co-founder and guitarist Gary Rossington and drummer Artimus Pyle (who left the band in 1992) are now the only living members of the band's lineup who survived a 1977 plane crash that claimed the lives of lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines, vocalist Cassie Gaines and road manager Dean Kilpatrick. Guitarist Allen Collins died in 1990, and bassist Leon Wilkeson passed away in 2001. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
