Sweet Home Alabama
"Sweet Home Alabama" was a major chart hit for a band whose previous singles had "lazily sauntered out into release with no particular intent". The hit led to two TV rock show offers, which the band turned down. In addition to the original appearance on "Second Helping", the song has appeared on numerous Lynyrd Skynyrd collections and live albums.
My Home's in Alabama (song)
The B-side to the MDJ Records release of "My Home's in Alabama" was "Why Lady Why," which was also recorded during the sessions for the band's independent release, The Alabama Band #3, and received additional production from Harold Shedd. The song later became a single from the "My Home's in Alabama" album — and the band's second No. 1 hit. Later pressings issued by RCA had "I Wanna Come Over" as the B-side.
