Street Survivors: Rarities Edition

2010 stand-alone single disc release that contains all the bonus tracks featured on the second disc of the Deluxe Edition release of this album (ie: does NOT contain the original album, only the rarities associated with that release). Perfect for collectors who may have missed the double disc version or for those who are in search of all the great tracks that were initially exclusive to the Deluxe Edition. It took two tries for Lynyrd Skynyrd to get the album Street Survivors the way they wanted it, and until the release of the Deluxe Edition of that album, fans never heard the first version intact, only the officially released version recorded in Georgia. With the 'Rarities Edition', not only do fans get to hear the alternate version of the album recorded at Miami's Criteria Studio, they get the songs that fell by the wayside when the group decided to retool the entire album. These recordings are joined by selections from one of the very last live performances by the original band in Fresno, California, three months prior to the album being released and the airplane crash that felled members of the original group.
