Originally issued on MCA in 1975, Nuthin' Fancy is the third album from Southern rock legends Lynyrd Skynyrd and follow-up to name-making releases 1973's Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd and 1974's Second Helping. Again enlisting the production skills of the great Al Kooper who discovered the band and worked on their first two offerings, Nuthin' Fancy was Lynyrd Skynyrd's first to break into the Top 10, peaking at No. 9 and subsequently going Platinum. Boasting a harder hitting sound than its predecessors and some of Ronnie Van Zant's finest songwriting on classics like "Satuday Night Special," "On The Hunt" and ""Whiskey Rock-A-Roller," Lynyrd Skynyrd doesn't necessarily try to reinvent the wheel here, but they do immortalize their well earned reputation as a true rock band of the highest order, Southern or otherwise!
"Second Helping brought Lynyrd Skynyrd mass success and for the follow-up they offered Nuthin' Fancy. It was a self-deprecating title for a record that may have offered more of the same, at least on the surface, but was still nearly peerless as a Southern rock record. The biggest difference with this record is that the band, through touring, has become heavier and harder, fitting right in with the heavy album rock bands of the mid-'70s. The second notable difference is that Ronnie Van Zant may have been pressed for material, since there are several songs here that are just good generic rockers. But he and Skynyrd prove that what makes a great band great is how they treat generic material, and Skynyrd makes the whole of Nuthin' Fancy feel every bit as convincing as their first two records..." - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music
