<h3 class="flir">Lynyrd Skynyrd &mdash; <a title="Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme Three Steps" href="http://www.rockband.com/songs/gimmethreesteps">&ldquo;Gimme Three Steps&rdquo;</a></h3>
<p><br /> <img class="postimage" src="/files/zine/lynyrd_skynyrd_thumbnail.jpg" border="0" alt="Lynyrd Skynyrd" title="Lynyrd Skynyrd" />Here&rsquo;s a classic track that got overlooked the first time around: It was on Lynyrd Skynyrd&rsquo;s 1973 debut album, where it got overshadowed by a little number called &ldquo;Free Bird.&rdquo; It didn&rsquo;t become known as a &ldquo;greatest hit&rdquo; until it appeared on Skynyrd&rsquo;s live album a few years later (along with &ldquo;Free Bird&rdquo; again, of course). Unlike a lot of Skynyrd tunes, &ldquo;Gimme Three Steps&rdquo; is actually pretty funny: Thanks to the barroom misadventures it describes, singer Ronnie Van Zant narrowly escapes getting the crap beat out of him in all three verses. Catchy, good-timey and Southern as hell, it&rsquo;s not a bad way to remember Van Zant&rsquo;s talent. For authenticity, bring in some extra guitar players, and grow beards.</p>
<h3 class="flir">The Black Crowes &mdash; <a title="The Black Crowes - Hard to Handle" href="http://www.rockband.com/songs/hardtohandle">&ldquo;Hard to Handle&rdquo;</a></h3>
<p><br /> The song that launched the Black Crowes&rsquo; career was one of the only non-original tunes they ever recorded. Southern soul great Otis Redding wrote the song and recorded it first&mdash;While Redding also had a sensitive side, this one was all about ex and swagger. Which made it a perfect cover tune for many artists over the years, and &ldquo;Hard to Handle&rdquo; was one of the few songs done by both Tom Jones and the Grateful Dead. The Crowes kept the funky groove from Redding&rsquo;s original and jacked up the guitars, mapping out the old-school Southern territory they&rsquo;d explore for years to come. Chris Robinson (whose voice is faithfully covered here) proved to be one of the few white guys who could sing &ldquo;Yes ah ram&rdquo; and get away with it.</p>
<h3 class="flir">Rush &mdash; <a title="Rush - Limelight" href="http://www.rockband.com/songs/limelight">&ldquo;Limelight&rdquo;</a></h3>
<p><br /> Sooner or later, every rock star writes a song about rock stardom. Rush&rsquo;s intrepid drummer/lyricist had a go with this number, which airs his mixed feelings on the subject. On one hand, he tells his fans that he doesn&rsquo;t want to hang out with them (&ldquo;I can&rsquo;t pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend&rdquo;), on the other he celebrates the larger spiritual bond between a band and its audience. These thoughts were wrapped in one of Rush&rsquo;s catchiest tunes, which helped make 1980&rsquo;s &ldquo;Moving Pictures&rdquo; their breakthrough album (originally, &ldquo;Limelight&rdquo; closed out the same album side that &ldquo;Tom Sawyer&rdquo; opened; and the two songs in between were no slouches either). &ldquo;Limelight&rdquo; also opened every show of Rush&rsquo;s most recent tour in summer 2007. Have fun mastering the nuances of our faithfully executed cover version: You think covering a Rush song is easy?</p>
