QUOTE (Jesse @ Oct 9 2008, 08:05 AM)  I read this somewhere, about the song Sweet Home Alabama! At the end guitar line you can hear ronnie (the singer) say: my doughnuts Goddammn! (I'm sorry, but that's what he said) Because before they started recording, he bought him doughnuts but he was trapped inside the singing booth laying on the vocals when the band ate his doughnuts! Fact #2 The solo is played in the wrong key! They play it in G! While the song's in D. The guitarist said he wouldn't change it because he recieved all notes of the solo in his dream:P this is a great post. I am going to listen to it now, interesting on both accounts. edit: You are correct, he does that on the solo, it gives it an effect, like dropping down a "step" to the vocals when the solo ends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huLklsj_5HI and yes, now we know what he said at the end of his singing, obviously he thought they would just cut it out, but they left it in for kicks I guess.

There is another interpratation here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Home_Alabama_(song)
"Following the two "woo's" (Leon's the first, Ed's the second) at the start of the piano solo, Van Zant can be heard ad-libbing "My, Montgomery's got the answer." The duplicate "my" was produced by Kooper turning off one of the two vocal takes." But to me it sounds like doughnuts. -------------------- Schecter C1 Hellraiser EMG 81/85, replaced with JB/Jazz (SH4/SH2n) w. coilsplit Schecter Revenger HB-105, replaced with EMG 81/85 Stratocaster Deluxe Players Noiseless Ibanez 2550z Blackstar HT5H, Blackheart BH5H w.

I read that, I don't see where wikipedia references what he says at the end of the song. Sure sounds like doughnuts to me. QUOTE (Stevie·Ray·Vaughn @ Oct 9 2008, 02:51 PM) I'm not sure I understand where he says my doughnuts goddamn? right after he finishes singing, it is the last thing he says. edit: Ok, I see what you are saying BW, after the two Woo's. That is the spot they are talking about, the disputed statement. edit2: I found a supporting reference to the doughnut interpretation..... According to Q magazine Ronnie Van Zant treated himself to a box of doughnuts before the session. While he was recording his vocal in the booth, the band began to eat them in the control room. He couldn't do anything because he was trapped singing the song. At the end you can hear him saying, very angrily, "My doughnuts! Goddamn!"

But I think it only means it gives a lydian sound instead of dorian
