Lynyrd Skynyrd: Johnny Van-Zant (vocals); Ed King (acoustic & electric guitars, 12-string guitar, 6-string bass); Gary Rossington, Randall Hall (guitars); Billy Powell (piano, Hammond B-3, synthesizer); Leon Wilkeson (bass); Custer (drums, percussion); Dale Krantz-Rossington (background vocals). Recorded at Emerald Sound Studios and Javelina Studios, Nashville, Tennessee between July 13 and December 9, 1992. After nearly a decade apart, a reconstructed Lynyrd Skynyrd toured together in the late '80s, and became a full-time band again by the '90s--returning to the grind of recording and touring. The second studio album of the "Johnny Van Zant-era," 1993's THE LAST REBEL, was comparable to its predecessor two years earlier, 1991, since it didn't stray far from Skynyrd's classic '70s output: tough rockers with a country edge. While individual standouts would include such southern rock ditties as "Good Lovin's Hard to Find" and the title track, “THE LAST REBEL”, the latter which includes the incredible and very haunting masterpiece slide work of King.
