Since this thread long jumped the shark...

I just thought I'd share the fact that the lead guitarist of Strawberry Alarm Clock (Ed King) later joined Leonard Skynyrd in 1972 first as a bass player and then one of the lead guitarists for a couple of years until leaving a year or so before the infamous plane crash which disbanded the original group.

I happened to get to know Ed King growing up from, of all places, church (true story!).

I was a little young for Skynyrds prime but at least got to see their first reunion tour from back stage both stops when they came into the Capital Centre in Washington, DC.
