reception
In August 1977, John Swenson compared Lynyrd Skynyrd in Rolling Stone Magazine : “ Donnie's persona is more innocent and hedonistic. He'll have to get past that if he wants to be more than a wan reflection of his brother. "(" Donnie is more innocent and hedonistic than his brother. He will have to overcome this if he wants to be more than a pale image of his brother ")
