RIP Dickey Betts,who just passed away today at age 80. God bless for all the great music you gave the world. 🎸🕊️
I just heard also.
One of the all time greats.
He’s in Heaven jamming with Duane,Berry,and Gregg
@@thejasonadamecomedyshow7646And Butch.
Amen
The one thing all of us kids of the 70's can agree on is, our lives had one heck of a soundtrack.
You sure right about that . . . and that Blue Eyed Soul was hittin' on all four cylinders . . .
Call me old-But my generation had music that will never be matched!!!!! Now prove me wrong!!!!!
@@JamesEtheridge-fm5wc 60s and 80s was really good too but it was all downhill from there.
Good one......and so TRUE!
My 1st concert was in August 1974 to the Allman Brothers, Wet Willie, and Quick Sliver in Mobile, AL at Ladd Memorial Stadium. Great memories for a 16 year old. I have been an ABB fan ever since. RIP and long live all Southern Rock!
When I was in my 20s (I’m 74 now) I used to crank up the volume to the max on this tune before I went to work. RIP Dickie Betts!
Same here ..I'm 72..saw the Allman Brothers in 1973 at Watkins Glen festival...
I'm 74 and I just cranked it up now! :-)
Unfortunately I never had the pleasure of seeing them live :(
They are so very unrated they are the best.
I'm closing in on 66. I am also a long time fan. RIP DB.
There’s a really good jam session going on right now in heaven with Dickie, Duane and Greg! Thanks for your music rest in peace.
How do u know ?
And not forget Berry Oakley.
And Butch Trucks
I don’t think so scooter. I think when Greg died… Duane beat the ever living crap out of him for dropping a dime on his roadie to save his weasel rear end !
However… Duane & Dickie are rocking-on like never before…&…that’s for sure.
And every single original member of MOLLY HATCHET, who delivered the best ever tribute to ABB with their 1978 revision release of ‘Dreams I’ll Never See’ (from Dreams, by ABB)!! 🥹🦋❤️🎶❤️
"And when it's time for leavin', I'll hope you understand." RIP Dickey
Rest In Peace Dickey Thanks For All The Wonderful Songs!
Rip, Dickey Betts. You are a legend.
Rest in peace Ramblin Man! Great guitar player!
May all your skies be blue ones Dickey.
Lost a true legend today. RIP Mr. Dickie Betts, a phenomenal talent.
Blessed to have seen his brilliance on 3 different occasions.
I'll next forget Dec. 31, 1973 at the Cow Palace, in The City.
A new year I'll never forget. or relive.
Bless you Dickie. Bless all who read.
Why can't musicians write this kind of music anymore?
Billy Strings is worth checking out
What a Riff ! What a voice !! Pure Gold . RIP Dickey Betts, tell Garcia we all say High...rock on brothers & sisters
RIP Dickey. Thank you so much for the music!
R.I.P. Dickey. I’ll raise a glass later.🙏🇬🇧🥃🇺🇸
At 65 years old I have requested this is played at my funeral I hope my children comply. God bless the Allman brothers and dicky betts.
Man reading that nearly brought me to tears. I grew up hearing this song and I return to it when I start feeling old lol. My dad wishes for this song to be played at his funeral as well and as the oldest at 40 yrs I will comply. I hope your kids do the same. Other songs requested are Suppers Ready and Entangled by Genesis.
Mine is “ Jessica.”
RIP Dickey and thank you for the music 🎵🎶...it lives on !
Rest in peace Dickey Betts you did well.
wow what a huge loss to southern music lovers everyone loved the allman bros the southern bands are by far the best period
This music lives on in 2024! And is way better than todays stuff which you can’t even call music 🎶 rip Rambling Man🙏🏽🥹
Amazing artist. Real music by real musicians , not today's pop music garbage.
Signature Song
Of the Alman Brothers Band,,
Dickey Betts spoke with his guitar like all the greats, thanks for inspiring generations of Musicians! RIP 🙏 🪦
RIP Dickey Betts thanks for all the memories glad I got to see you guys play with Carlos Santana in Connecticut and in New York at some theater
Love this song...May he rest Easy
Agreed...Rest in Peace ...an absolute master...God bless Dickey Betts...he and the Allmans bridged a musical gap between my parents and me growing up in the 70s. I caught my dad secretly playing Jessica from Brothers and Sisters...he came from an earlier era..but conceded that these guys knew their music, and could play...thank you Mr Betts, and the rest of the band...
A moment of silence today for the great Dickey Betts. Thank you, Dickey. You'll be greatly missed, but always remembered. Rick on, and ramble on. We'll see you, and all of our brothers and sisters and other enlightened rogues somewhere down Highway 41. Rest in peace, Dickey.
Rock on, that is.
I was born on a pool table when this came out
Rest in Peace Dickey! 😢 🌼 🌸 🌻 🎸 this is a song I never ever tire of! Condolences to his family and friends 💐
My father's favorite song of all time. He just passed two days after Christmas 2019. Here's to you, Pops.
My dad passed away also. About to celebrate his 10 year anniversary next month. This was one of many songs he shared with me growing up. Amazing how these songs still make us feel close to them. God bless
What a amazing song.. 👍😍✌️🏵️☮️. Iam very very sorry that your father died 2 days after Christmas.. 😭😞😞. I which you a lot Power and peace and love.. 💪✌️❤️
@@xXnatalieroseXx iam also very sorry for you... Yeah some music and songs remains us on people which we loved and share time in the path. I whish you all the best🤗✌️🏵️
Leafing through RUclips, to send my 18 year old daughter a link to this great song, referencing highway 61m the blues and the Crossroads mythology. My wonderful daughter and me were doing the dishes after our family xmas supper, when she played me the Larkin Poe version of this great song (which isn't half bad) Now I'm sending her the link to this original. And came across your story. Sorry for your loss, mate. Music is balm for the soul. Love from the Netherlands.
@@xXnatalieroseXx Amen. Im very sorry for your loss❤️
RIP Dickey Betts . Thank you for your music and being a big part of one of the greatest bands during my generation. The Allman Brothers
Dicky you were an integral part of my 20s youth. RIP brother.
🎶And I was born in the backseat of a greyhound bus..Rolling down highway 41🎶..I've always loved that lyric for some reason.
You are my blue sky, Dickey. Then, now, forever.
1973 this song was at the top of the charts almost 50 years later still a phenomenal song
And will always be a phenomenal song......
I used to hear this song on the radio...loved it and still do
I remember 1973 and this great song ❤
Jaimoe and friends jammed it out at Peach last year. This year Taz is doing Bros and Sis with Trouble No More. Should be one for the books.
I am the son of a proud Black man and this is one of his favorite songs. Guess why.
So damn full of life, that's what the Allman Brothers Band were to me and are still.
They just don't make music like this anymore. Never again. These songs will be hits forever.
Rest In Peace Legendary Allman Brother Dickey Betts! You are gone but your spirit and music will live on Forever!
Yes God,a classic.Those days are slipping away with every sunset.
God Bless Dickey Betts ! The best example of A Southern Gentleman .
I'm a long haul driver 66 years old started doing this at 18 this music is what drives me saddle up let's roll
I live in Georgia and heard this song at a country pumpkin patch and now I'm here. I love it
I’m a Tennessean by birth but I’ve spent most my adult life in Middle Georgia. Love it!
I was 10 years old when I heard this song when it was released now 61 and still loving it thank you sweet Jesus and Greg Allman rest in peace ✌️✌️✌️ God bless you brother miss you
I remember when this was on the AM charts and listening on a cheap transistor radio.... nothing sounded better.
God bless Dickie and the Allman Brothers.
This is the true definition of country rock.
At the time it was just Rock. Country musicians didn't sound (or look) anything like this.
Things evolve. It became country rock without the song changing. The world changed around it.
Then things evolve further. Classic rock radio will still play it, and I'm glad they do. But if it came out brand new today, sounding exactly the same, I bet it would just be called Country without the rock.
This is southern rock no country in it .
@@larryreece1427 Hear! Hear! My sentiments EXACTLY Sir!
Southern Rock ,cannot be misunderstood for country rock ,maybe a little blues in it but not country, this crap they play on the country music stations today. ,is not country music ! I dont know what you call it .
@@larryreece1427 for real
I am 63 and still playing im bands. We are learning this song and I've got to say: If you love listening to this song, wait until you have to learn to play it! Wow, you really get a great appreciation of their composing skills. What a great song.
I can't play a comb or a humazoo or spoons. No talent whatsoever. 🤣
What are you even talking about, man?
Just learned how to accompany myself with chords on the piano with this song. Feels so good!
This song and band were before my time but thanks to having awesome parents and an older brother with great musical taste I was introduced to The Allman Brother's!!! Almost 2022 and this song is still an absolute classic and as epic as it was when it was released!!🤘🔥
one of my favorites
🎸💯
I think it was a crisp fall day in 1972 when I bought the"Brothers and Sisters"album.I was sitting in my house eating slim jims and drinking beer looking at the album cover and liner notes.I felt like I was on top of the world.Allman Brothers was to me probably the best American band.
I like the way you relate that memory, Joe. I just finished Gregory's autobiography. I feel sad, not just because he and so many are gone, but sad to remember the feeling of those early 70's yrs and how it felt. I was only a kid, with southern roots. Thankful these boys followed their passion to give us great memories, though. Truly a one and only sound.
It must have been 1973 because the album came out in summer of 1973.
They were truly the greatest.
You hear this music and you are transported to a simpler time, you think of balmy nights and open fields. No big city shit, not what the "glamorous" would call fun. Just simple and wholesome Southern Rock.
This record was released in August of 1973, so one year later perhaps 🙂
@@malcolmpalm I was close,I thought it was either 1972 or 1973.
Rest in peace, love, and music Dickie Betts.
Thank you so much for 55 years of your awesome guitar playing, singing and songwriting with the Allman Brothers Band.
Tonight in joyous tribute to you and your memorable and timeless career I will be singing "Ramblin' Man" live with Johnny Favorite Presents: You Front the Band at The Boardwalk nightclub in Orangevale, California, USA.
🧙♂️🪄🙌🎸🎤🎶💙🫂
Couldn't get over how much talent he had! Just amazing. Thank you for all your music! 👃
RIP Dickey Betts, rest in peace, brother.
In 2020 Bob Dylan included a wonderful tribute to Dickey Betts on the song Murder Most Foul, from the Rough and Rowdy Ways album; about the last half of the 17 minute song Dylan mentions some of the most beautiful music ever made and name checks many
brilliant people; he mentions BLUE SKY - I remember being so pleased that this beautiful piece of music was included amongst this song. It brought tears to my eyes, as it appeared during that never ending Covid lockdown; amongst fear, illness, and - remember stay 6 feet apart - and don’t attend funerals of loved ones - close the schools, learn from a computer at home instead of in person etc… Dickey Betts: thanks for many memories, along with your brothers, and solo albums, and southern beauty and grace. Hopefully a quick passage into heaven!! 🌅🌅🎆🎶✝️✝️
Dickey Betts had his signature on this song, Ramblin' man. Guitar is phenomenal. So long, my frie nd.❤
How this song is not among Rolling Stone’s Top 500 rock songs of all time is a travesty
I used to listen to this waiting on the pre k school bus in Tennessee I love my mom I was born in 1994
RIP Dickey...we'll miss you !!!
Some of the best guitar work ever by Dickie Betts
personally I prefer his solos on a lot of other tracks. here the rig gives to the guitar too high jarring tone...totally no basses in this sound. my tastes are the opposite...fat low sound and neck pick up.
Tell me you're clueless, without telling me you're clueless....
@@Asdrubale01 Imagine taking the piss out of one of the most iconic guitar tones in history ......
I believe he did this solo in ONE take! Amazing!
I a
A band apart..what an era to grow up in.
I had just purchased a used copy of the album “Dickey Betts And Great Southern” yesterday at Hole In The Wall Records in Valdosta, Georgia yesterday. It’s a very good place for records, CDs, and cassette tapes. I have been going there quite a few times. RIP Forrest Richard “Dickey” Betts and thanks for the incredible music and the sizzling Gibson Les Paul guitar. Nowadays he’s jamming with Gregg Allman, Duane Allman, Berry Oakley, Lamar Williams, and Butch Trucks.
R.I.P. to the man who was born on the backseat of a grayhound bus Gregorio Ayala Almond
That's how you do it! RIP Dickey Betts.
Why doesn't this song have at least two or three million views?
Probably my favorite Allman Brothers song. Like the vocals and the instrumentals.
Yes indeed, there is something special about Southern rock music...
Why not 3 billion? Absolute classic.
Remember when this Song came out, brings back some Great memories
People don’t like good music anymore
keep rockin' up there Dickey ! thanks for the music
I was born in 1998 and I love this classic 70’s song! This music makes me feel young! 😉
LOL, now that's funny, you are young. Enjoy it for the short time it lasts. I was 17 when this song came out. Seems like yesterday. Where does the time go?
@@mikebailey1226 I know right? Let’s enjoy this great music. 🎵
you missed a lot.We have had 2 timeline jumps since the good old days. The reality was left to be created by us more than them. Now it's reversed. RIP America
I was 6 feet away from Greg Allman on the piano at an outdoor concert in Mass '84. My youngest was born in '97 & siblings grew up listening to them. They can repeat the lyrics today.
It's being young that makes you feel young.
I feel like this song describes me perfectly: a ramblin' man.
Thank you for the wonderful Music Dickey. God Speed Sir...... 'On to your next Chapter....
Dude, I freaking love the bassline. It trully makes up this song's personality.
It moves around place to place, and every place it goes is a bit different. Just like how a ramblin' man lives, right?
Berry Oakley one of the best, lost too soon ☮️
That´s the job of a real good bassit.
So low in the mix though
Hey!....what makes the song is the amazing lead guitar , not the bass....lol
I remember when they played this in Nashville and sang "leaving out of Nashville TN" the crowd went wild. This happened several times. The ABB biggest hit.
RIP Dickey Betts. ✝️
If you can’t or won’t enjoy this song I don’t think there’s much help for you. Sooo good!
Thank you for the gift you left us, brother. Hope to jam with you someday in the blue sky.
My childhood! I remember it playing and my parents dancing singing and enjoyibg life!❤I'm so sorry for the loss of your parents. I lost mine in 88 and 91 a huge part of our hearts, yet, everytime we gesr a song, memories flood our hearts and soul and we remember the love and joy! I have every Carol King, James Traylor, Carly Simon, memorized as I'd listen on our long wooden console stereo with my Mom for hours as we moved about our day!
Cheers!x
This was in "The Exorcist" movie. I am a lifelong Motown fan, but love this one.
One of the best guitar solos of all time.
RIP, DB. Thanks for all the hot licks.💔
50 countries and 40 years later and I still love this song.
You’re a rambling man for sure. I hope to follow suit
The first fifty years of childhood are always the hardest
lol
I shall definitely be quoting that, though with me it's 73 years. Great song, great group, great times.
I'll have to remember that one. Good call...
No cell phones....no FB...just land lines and ya call up some friends for the Friday nite party. Bell bottoms, brew and good times. 70s was great time to be a teenager!
For the life of me I can't find any songs that sound similar to this one.
He epitomized the best of the South. Not racist, not living in the past... just a man who appreciated family, community, friends and embraced love and wrote and played amazing music.
Ya, god bless southern!
Just a man that loved some good coke too. Lol
They were a good group of guys I miss those who are no longer with us.
@WarPaint 47 How's junior high these days, buddy?
TRUMP!!!
One of my all time favourite songs, it always lifts me up.
Mine to and. Granpa Joe
I was privileged in the late 60s to attend an open air concert on the Cambridge, MA. commons and got Duane Allmans autograph.
My two favorite uncles dead in 2007 and 2008 just 4 months apart. When I was 19 goddamn I miss them. We used to go fishing and listen to classical rock like this during that time. Bobby and Billy you two will be missed.
When Barry Oakley died so soon after Duane Allman, Everyone assumed that The Allman Brothers Band was history. But with "Ramblin' Man", Dicky Betts more than proved that he could step up to the plate!
I was in basic training for USAF and the local radio stations were reporting that Gregg had died. I defied orders and called my friends in Knoxville and found out it was Berry still a great loss. If they caught me making that phone call i would had to start basic training all over.
My grandparents used to listen to this all the time. I can thank them for introducing me to this timeless classic. RIP Nana
Ramblin' off to heaven.
I love music artists that incorporated societal paradigms and economical, being a counter culture ideaolog to try to honestly exist whether you have money or not
RIP Dickey Betts, he was a fantastic guitar player he's up there jamming with Duane , Berry, and Gregg
Great travel song...much thanks to the band!
I not from the south but God knows they had their share of the all-time greats. Makes me love the diversity of this great land of ours. I can hear this music all day...
Not your fucking Country! :P
Southern Rock at its finest!
Try Jessica. Pure Genius on Guitar 🎸.
Thanks for the memories DB. You will always be with us in spirit. I came here for the solo. Rambling Man is not one of my favorite songs, but the guitar work is flawless.
Rest in Peace Dickey!! Go let your Soul Shine.
ONE OF THE BEST GUITAR RIDES OF THAT ERA.....
I've had this Song on my mind. I had to hear it
Southern blues/rock is one of my favourite genres if not my favourite. I will always love allman brothers music forever
Me too
Currently on tour with FOREIGNER. Have been to 15 states and another country since last month. This song hits right now! This is the life for me. Every day an adventure, every day, someone and something new! Ramblin man here!
Classic to cruise roads to
Monumentale epoca di una band Grandiosa A.B.B...
immer wieder schön
I was 11 years old when my family would go to North Carolina for summer vacations. This song seemed to always find its way on the radio going down highway 95 over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. What a memory. Glad to have known all the wonderful vacations with the Allman Brothers Band. Thank You
