"My Grass Is Blue" Premium Unisex T-Shirt (Lynyrd Skynyrd)
Regular price $34.99October 20, 1977. Lynyrd Skynyrd Released Street Survivors. Three Days Later, the Plane Went Down.
Look closely at the original album cover. Seven members of the band standing in front of flames. Fourth from the left, in a red-and-white tee: the words "My Grass Is Blue." Nobody planned for that shirt to mean anything. It was just what someone wore to the photo shoot.
Three days after Street Survivors hit record stores, a chartered Convair 300 ran out of fuel over Mississippi and crashed into a swamp. Ronnie Van Zant was killed. Steve Gaines was killed. Cassie Gaines was killed. The band's road manager and two crew members died with them. Others survived, some barely.
MCA pulled the original cover within days. The flames behind the band — already printed, already in stores — were too much. They replaced it with a plain black background. The original pressing became one of the most sought-after artifacts in rock history. People who had it didn't let go of it.
"My Grass Is Blue" is a detail only people who know the original cover recognize. It's on a shirt, worn by a member of a band standing in fire, three days before everything changed. This tee is for those people.
