Lynyrd Skynyrd's Second Helping

Then on Sunday night at 11pm, as we unwind from the busy holiday weekend, we bring you the WPDH Album of the Week: Lynyrd Skynrd- Second Helping.

Released in 1974, Second Helping is Lynyrd Skynyrd's second studio album. The album featured the band's biggest single, "Sweet Home Alabama", which reached number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in August of 1974. This was the first Lynyrd Skynyrd album to feature the band's trademark triple guitar attack. It was also the first to feature Leon Wilkison on bass and the last to feature Bob Burns on drums. The album reached number 12 on the Billboard album charts and was certified Gold in Sept. 1974, Platinum, and eventually double Platinum in 1997. Other favorites on the album include "Don't Ask Me No Questions", "The Ballad of Curtis Lowe", "The Needle and the Spoon", and "Call Me the Breeze". Listen all weekend long to the Home of Rock and Roll for 45 years in the Hudson Valley, 101.5 WPDH!
