Lynyrd Skynrd:   not too fancy
By Bob Merzotan
•Nuthtn' Fancy* ts Lynyrd
Skyurd's newest shot and it's not
all too hod. hat something rust
seems to be missing sad that's
what keeps tkls from being a
superior album.
ProheMy the missing element
is growth or better yet lonova-
ttnai There waa a definite im
proeomont im mediate ty recognizable Iwtween their first (•Pronounced 'Leh- nerd'Skin-"nerd")
and second LP's (•Second Hasping") . . . from a sow ennui
ragged to a fairly polished sound
which readily lent Itself to tts
preeent Southern "get-'em-ln-
the-guts" rock trademark
However. "Nutkln' Fancy*
sounds more like tTirend Helping* part two. The musical snd
nemes sre pretty much
the aame . . . keeping s good
thing going is s good Woo bat
even Hetirv Ford finally realized
the   value in a change of color.
l.vnvrd Skynrd haa everything

musicians, adequate vocalists,
good writing cspaMHttes sad
most of all they ve got teste. They
have the knack for keeping things
within the lounds of reason by
not overwhelming us with the
usual too-long solos, protoottoas
Ivrtcs ami hyped-up glitter
Images . . . taste
However, thetr (hopefully
short-term) innovative stagnation hss kept them from progressing as room felt they would,
so some: butts and

things started to go wrong, we
blamed everyhody but ourselves
The lesson wss, *1f you're not

Well. Bob Soger Is back for
another attempt this time ss a
solo artist with the 'Beautiful
Loeer" release. TMs record
should sat the coaras Soger has
sought Its rnostly mellow, si-
most moroseful music tinged with
Seger looking to other days sod
times gone by, especially on ths
title tuas snd •Momma." Among
the softer moments srs s couple
of rockers which give Mm s
rhsnce to really shine vocslly
Seger is bsckod on tats album
primarily by the Muscle Shoals
Rhythm Section tn sddltion to
accompanying Mmaelf on piano

snd clean snd ths total mood
