    Artimus gets into his love for his fans, the new Ronnie Van Zant and Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute album, including a new version of Free Bird with Dolly Parton taking over the vocals and a very special guest on guitar. He shares a great story about mending fences and an emotional goodbye to a long-time friend,  plus the drummers he thinks are best, and the guitarist he rates number one.
