Skynyrd’s First and…Last was the original name of the posthumous compilation album first released in 1978 by the rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. The original 1978 version of the album is now out of print. In 1998, it was repackaged, renamed and re-released as Skynyrd’s First: The Complete Muscle Shoals Album, being expanded to include eight additional tracks – four of which were previously unreleased and four which would be re-recorded for (Pronounced ‘Lĕh-‘nérd ‘Skin-‘nérd). As the renamed title suggests, the album was recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama. Originally intended to be their debut album it was shelved, making (Pronounced ‘Lĕh-‘nérd ‘Skin-‘nérd) their actual debut. The album was certified Gold on 9/8/78[clarification needed] and Platinum on 11/10/78[clarification needed] by the RIAA.
The albums contains early band recordings from 1971 and 1972. Many of the tracks are exclusive to these albums, being either otherwise unreleased, or original versions of songs later re-recorded for other studio albums. However, a few of these early tracks were later released on compilation albums, such as Lynyrd Skynyrd Box Set and the German-based Repertoire Records release Old Time Greats in 1997.
