Title: Lynyrd Skynyrd Post by: Sarge on January 29, 2009, 17:17:06 pm Looks like keyboardist Billy Powell passed (story in today's obituaries LA Times) at a too early age of a heart attack. A shame all the hardship this band has endured over the years. My faves: Call Me the Breeze and Sweet Home Alabama. RIP :(
