Gibbons also talks about the new ZZ Top album that has reportedly been in the works, his long relationship with Skynyrd and other plans that will keep him busy until the end of the year and beyond.  What are some of your earliest memories of Lynyrd Skynyrd?We really liked the compositional elements that they put together.
