Despite its title,
Freebird: The Movie does not contain a series of variations on the title song (granted, only four versions of "Freebird" could have fit on a standard-play compact disc). Instead, it captures a number of highlights from the soundtrack of Freebird: The Movie, a documentary about
Lynyrd Skynyrd's final tour. In addition to a dynamite version of "Freebird," the album contains a number of rare
Skynyrd live cuts, including the first released live takes of "What's Your Name" and "That Smell." For dedicated fans, it's a live memento worth seeking out and cherishing.
