Allen Collins’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Allen Collins was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
Guitarist and one of the founding members of Lynyrd Skynyrd who wrote much of the music released by the band.
He loved cars and his favorite activity Saturday nights was to go down to the Jacksonville Raceway.
The plane crash that killed three of his Lynyrd Skynyrd bandmates also left Collins seriously injured.
He married his wife Kathy Johns in 1970; the bandmates in attendance kept their long hair under wigs to not frighten her parents.
In their early days, his group used to open for Pete Townshend and The Who.
