Answer:

Yeah, we did "Simple Man" in November of 2003 for a Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute album. There were a bunch of bands covering Skynyrd songs, but the last I heard it wasn't going to happen.

Tribute albums (or songs) to Lynyrd Skynyrd are not a new thing.

- Lynyrd Skynyrd: Lonesome Skynyrd Time Feat Larry Cordle & LST

- Under the Influence: Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd

- Sweet Home Alabama: Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd

- Pickin' on Lynyrd Skynyrd: A Tribute

- The Blues Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd

- Steel Guitar Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd

- Country Tribute to Lynyrd to Skynyrd

Shinedown recorded a version of "Simple Man". Many people don't like it, but I think it sounds wonderful. The lead singer from Shinedown has a fantastic voice and the song is done in a very simple and pure acoustic style. I got to hear this live last year at Riverfest in Wisconsin and thought the sound was phenomenal (of course this version wasn't acoustic).

There's my two cents!
