    Thanks to my family for giving me the confidence to follow my dreams. This is an incredible version and I dedicate it to everyone no longer with me on my journey but we know they’re still free birds waiting for us all to join them on their never ending journeys.

    All you younger generations out there, pay attention. THIS is how rock and roll is supposed to be done. No autotune, no fancy dance choreography, no lip sync. Just musicians getting on stage and doing what they do best, play music.

    Saw Lynard Skynard at Knebworth in 1976. The were so good that the audience booed the Rolling Stones when they came on because they started doing a 'Ok, lets just get this over with' performance.
