"Skynyrd's First And...Last" was an album containing 1971 and 1972 collections by the rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. It is considered by most fans as an essential album, as the tracks are not available on the other studio albums, apart from later compilation albums. In 1998, it was renamed to Skynyrd's First: The Complete Muscle Shoals Album and included eight additional tracks, six of which were previously unrleased prior to the re-issue.
