Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking the band's first studio effort since the tragic 1977 plane crash that claimed the lives of several original members, '1991' introduces Johnny Van Zant stepping in for his late brother, Ronnie. The recording successfully recaptured the group's signature triple-guitar attack and anthemic southern rock spirit, anchoring their transition into a renewed touring entity.
