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