Slash, Wynonna Judd, and other country music stars play Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute medley (video)

At Sunday's Country Music Television (CMT) Music Awards, musicians Slash, Wynonna Judd, LeaAnn Rimes, ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons, and Bad Company's Paul Rodgers honored the 50th anniversary of Lynyrd Skynyrd's classic 1973 debut album with a rousing medley of "Simple Man" and "Sweet Home Alabama." The performance also paid tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd's Gary Rossington— the last original member of the group—who died last month.
