today 4-21-24 is my 70th bday a cold rainy day here in Greensboro NC to continue mourning the passing of Dickey Betts 3 days ago.... i was 17yo when i saw the original lineup 7-31-1971in a carved out of a cornfield venue in North Baltimore OH just a couple weeks after release of Fillmore East.... so "when i think about the old days" it becomes very sad... DB you done good here on Earth and your 80 years here were a true blessing to your loving fans....
Buckey, 68 myself, North Georgia boy ... some deep sighs and a lot of nostalgia playing through 54 years of ABB.. even here with Johnny Carson, Greg, Warren, Dickey, and all were spot on beautiful... I was out of the country a lot during the Toler and Boyer years, didn't catch a lot of that era, but up through mid 70's and 90's on I respected all their line-ups .. never again anything like these guys, and close to home and heart.
Yes this sound mixing/ reinforcement and engineering is impeccable… those NBC technicians were great! The band sounds amazing …. Dickie and Warren were so tight in that lead break, then that harp behind the last verse… we tong see live music on television like that anymore… Oh baby, when the brass came in … what treat! Warren on slide and Doc Severinsen on trumpet… this is real music!
there is a song "great minds drink alike" they added a horn section after the fact and as you say even more amazing, that song came to my mind as i read your comment
@derekmoss7286 - Folks who don’t think different genres of music can’t blend together is a generalization. Rock musicians for example have been blending styles since day one. Off the top of my head: Clapton doing I Shot Tne Sheriff…Steely Dan…The Police…Red Hot Chii Peppers…Rage Against The Machine…
Dickeys' sound was so wonderful. The tone was warm and bold at the same time. If you only heard one note, you knew it was him playing. That is the mark of a true guitar god, to have your own sound. His death was a gutpunch to so many of us, but we are blessed to have seen him and hear him play and we can always visit him by putting on his records.
To all modern musicians on the radio, this is what talent looks like, i know you've never seen it before so take some notes though you may not know where to start. The last big band orchestra playing with arguably the best rock band. Priceless artistic talent never to be duplicated again. RIP to all, hope to here you guys again on the other side.
I got to see the Allman Brothers 3 times in Birmingham Alabama back in the early to mid 90's.Great shows and was a great time to be young and alive.Still hanging in there at 57 but I look back sometimes and miss the good ol days. 6-15-2024.
I am floored!!! Peel me up off my rug someone. If history is bound to repeat itself, how long do I have to wait for an occasion like this to come even close to a revelation? Today's music rots!!! Long Live Rock!
Saw this when it aired back in 90-91 oh man this is sooooo friggin good!!! It's sad that a lot of these great musicians are gone. Doc, Warren and Jaimoe are still here. Getting old sucks.
AMAZING!!! Dickey, Warren and Gregg’s killer voice!!! Followed up with Doc the Tonight Show band!?!? Are you kidding me!!! Absolute CLASSIC!!!! Great players!!
Many thanks to Johnny for featuring elite musicians playing the best live music ever; and very nice to see the group when they looked much younger and healthier. Awesome trumpet solo in the last song Doc!
You could see Mr. Carson loved the jam session and was proud of his boys keeping pace. That was the first time I’d seen horns with the AB’s, pretty tasty
Been an Allmans fan forever but I just can't believe how great they sounded here. As a musician myself, I know you have some good nights and bad nights....this must have been a great night for the Allman Brother Band.- and what a rare treat hearing them with Doc and the boys!!
I5 musicians at least when Doc's group joins the band for a live jam. What a treat! I'm glad the Tedeschi Trucks Band carries on this high level live performances.
unbelievable to get all the horns in there....goes to show what a genius songwriter Dickey was....jazz!!!!!!!! I'll bet Doc Severinson was seriously stoked to play along
This jam session should be in the Smithsonian institution in the music section. What a collaboration of different types and styles of musicians getting together to create something so beautiful. This is just priceless. I miss these days of the Carson show, I was a young buck then without a care in the world. Great video,thank you.
Exactly! They're in the dictionary next to the word "Badass"! It doesn't get any better. Dickey,Gregg RIP,Warren, and all the rest of ABB, and Doc's band is awesome too. Today's music doesn't hold a candle to this. These are professional musicians at the height of their craft. Pure geniuses right here.🎸🎶
Will Always Love Greg and Dickey. Just took my daughter to see All an Betts Band in Atlanta May 19 2024. She's out of her mind in love with all of their history and music.
You know you're talking rock royalty when Doc comes to Johnny and says, "hey, we gotta jam with these guys." The result is a win for every viewer of any age, any musical genre.
Give Warren Haynes credit too. He was a perfect fit to play with Dicky and provided a great deal of leadership that resulted in bringing Derek along. Thus, an extra two-plus decades of success. Don't believe it would have happened with anyone else but Haynes. Good stuff. Thanks for posting performances.
The Haynes/Betts duo is honestly one of the greatest in music history. Duane was a brilliant guitarist and had so much left to give the world musically, but died way too young. Warren Haynes is a brilliant guitarist in his own right and fit the Allman's style perfectly.
It is stunning how young Mr. Warren Haynes looks in this video. Seen him live many times, but not back this far, great collaboration with Doc Severnson and the Tonight Show Band. Lots of fun. RIP Gregg Allman, Allen Woody and Butch Trucks.
Every member of the Tonight Show band was an A list jazz musician in his own right. The Allman Brothers went toe to toe with them and the mutual respect was obvious. I would have loved to hear the after show jam sessions after these shows.
Great thing about the whole ABB run, they always shared the stages with so many great artist. Artists considered it a great honor to perform with one of the best damn bands on the planet.
I saw the Allmans on this tour......EPIC!!! I consider myself extremely blessed to have had the chance to see the Allman Brothers live. They will go down in music history as one of the original badass bands that introduced us all to, not only, southern rock and blues, but ultimately to the concept of "jamming". Every jam band owes a big "thanks" to the Allman Brothers.
Was going through a separation, heartbroken. Our salesman knew my 14yr old son was playing guitar. He said here's 2 tickets for you and your son . Meet me there. Front row center. Incredible concert.
Neither band was going to treat the collaboration with anything but the most respect and their absolute best effort. Gotta love real professionals! I know this level of professionalism is still out there, too bad we really don’t get the chance to see it in today’s TV market.
Warren and Dickey together were SOOOOOOOOOOOOO close to the magnificence of Duane and Dickey together. Gah, what an incredible group, augmented by Doc and his guys. Musical Valhalla.............
I saw the band in Central Park in NYC in 71. Duane had fun reverbing his sound off of the skyscrapers. I’ll never forget his smile. Perfect weather and an indelible memory
I clearly remember those times from the early 1990s. I thought how the guys still sounded so good, including Gregg's voice. I also remember thinking "someday, THESE will be the good old days". And here we are.
@michaelwills1926 OK, Junior. You don't have to educate me about "blue eyed soul." Referring to men as "boys" is never appropriate. Unfortunately, African Americans, of all people, refer to grown men as "white boys," yet would be highly offended if someone responded with, "I think that's also true with black boys."
The Brothers were the greatest show band in the history of R&R, imho, and Gregg Allman was the best white blues singer I ever heard. RIP Duane, Berry, Gregg, and Butch. You'll never be forgotten by those who saw and heard you.
This video is a classic performance in Rock 'n Roll history. Love the collaboration between the two bands with totally different musical styles, different genres, and different generations. Thank you Allman Brothers for taking a chance and surprising even the most diehard of fan. This shows the unifying power of music. All great musicians were present in the performance and we can all learn from this whatever walk of life we may come from.
I never tire of this video! And, with Johnny and Doc. Wonderful music you left for us to enjoy. ... thinkin' about the old days... Never to be forgotten.
This appearance on the Tonight Show is a great example of "buried" treasure!!! Great performances not yet discovered!! Should have no less than a half million hits here on YOU TUBE...
Lynn claughton awful it sounds like absolute shit. I heard dicky wanted to play with Lawrence welk and guy Lombardo. This is absolute shit. You need to change your post
The producer of show was angry at dicky for fucking up the green room with beer and trash Johnny Carson’s son booked the allman brothers despite Johnny’s request he didn’t Sadly his son died a year later when he dropped acid and drove off a car off a cliff while taking pictures. Allen woody fell asleep in a heroin daze while rehearsing sadly
The best music you'll ever hear. Ultra good musicians playing really well for and with each other. Jazz, blues and rock, 100% original American music. Fusion.
Absolutely love this band, exceptional talent everyone. Saw them perform live at the Atlanta Pop Fest in Byron, Ga. If you want to experience the feeling of that good ole boy southern blues, jazz,rock fusion may I suggest you get a copy of Live At the Fillmore, Allman Bros. BAND! YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
I was at Atlanta 2nd in Byron also. 3 days of intense 105 degree heat. Thank God for the river. Did you see Hendrix ? Read my post my friend. You may have a flashback however. 😁
This was true late night entertainment. A comedic legend, one of the greatest rock bands in history along with the fabulous Tonight Show Orchestra. The current crop of late night "entertainers" are absolute crap compared to this . .
So cool seeing Doc Severson again. The man would hit these notes possibly above high C, and his eyeballs would look like they were ready to pop! This showing is a first for me, and I almost never missed Carson.
RIP Gregg, Johnny and Doc. These clips are smokin! Growing up in the 60's everyone watched the Ed Sullivan Show for great musical performances. When you were older you could stay up and watch Carson at 1130pm who had on the next generation of comedians plus some great music.
Incredible, and Gregg, yowza! Kudos to the sound people (and band), good mix. Warren's killin' it. As others have mentioned, no pitch correction, no computers, no bullshit.
Absolutely killin' it! I challenge anyone to name a group that played with more power, precision, and skill. RIP, Gregory. I never knew you but I always felt you were my brother.
One of the most UNDERRATED bands ever!!! Not the Allmans!!! Their greatness is solidified in music history. I'm talking Doc Severanson, Eddie Shaunessy and the Tonight Show Band!!!
The Allmans were never underrated. Everyone knew they were phenomenal and one of a kind. They set a musical precedent that can't be duplicated. There's always one comment about some musician being underrated in every post. 🙄
My comment, if you read it correctly, was implying The Tonight Show Band IS the underrated band... There's always one comment replying to something they misread.
Doesn't get any better Johnny and the Allman Brothers! Greg in his prime: Long, cool drink of water and simply a bad ass out-law with the voice of a blues god!!
Doc absolutely dug in deep for his solo on "Kind of Bird"; watch him reach for that high note. Dickey and Warren both matched as tight as ever, and cheers for the birthday boy today, Butch, for blasting away on the kit.
Hi Joe Smith, Just wanna tell u that the 1st time I got to sit right up in front of this Seven Turns show was in Chicago, in summer, outside...I was 36 then. Wow, what an experience to be right up in it..me and the ol man of mine were in heaven. This is a standout for this band. Thinking about it now, older and health in devline, I am still amazed as a yound girl These guys would look u in the eye, they were frienly and wanted to engage u. From that show forward, we saw them 7 ×. I got to be a known face to Gregg, who would always kindly put my purse and belongings up by him and once sent me a pain pill w/a Perrier for an obvious migraine. A sweetheart. Also, I met Warren and Allen Woody at 3a.m. outdide Buddy Guy's Legends when they came outta their bus after a Gov't Mule show. Only a few of us remained quiet on the sidewalk and out came all 3 of them to sign autographs and share a joint. That was the ABB mag cover w/them on it that was signed. It sits in a beautiful frame in my living room still. I didn't get to sit close to anybody til 1990. but started going to concerts in winter of 1965 at age if 9! That was the Hollies, again in Chicago. That folowing summer of 1965, The Beatles at 10 yrs old w/,my Dad who laughed his ass off at all the crazy screaming girls. I fell in love w/music at about 6 yrs old for no reason at all. It took me 27 yrs to sit up close...and got truly spoiled! I coulda had a nice retirement from all that $ spent on concerts. But Soooo glad I spent it. Those memories make my 66 yr old sick self feel better in my soul than any $ ever could. Keep the music alive Joe and spread it around . I find very few who give a damn about it. God bless, peace and love.
I would put Letterman in the same category. He is a huge music fan and his appreciation for the songwriting genius of Warren Zevon was on full display when he devoted an entire show in tribute.
@Big Bill O'Reilly Hmmmm..... your name is Bill O'Reilly and I'm the Trumptard? On that note, back to listening to good music for me. I will leave you to your ill-informed trolling. Ciao.
Don't be sad that the good old days are gone... Be glad that you got to live in them..
I am glad for your comment...because I do often get sad about the past being gone. Your words reminded me of lyrics to an Eagles song.....If I never see the good old days shining' in the sun
I'll be doing' fine and then some
Thanks for this comment.
Problem with the good old days is that they are past
Great reminder, just finished a book about the ABB, such incredible talent and the price they paid!
I am glad to have lived them and really glad that I can put my headphones on and watch this very loud any time I want to.
No auto tune,samples,computers or backing tapes .Real music from one of Americas best bands ever
Two. Two of America's best bands ever.

My God, Gregg's voice was just amazing.
What a time in music history..and Carson...No one will ever compare...Grateful I was part of all this!!
He said the 70s but they started the 60s but their paydays were early 70s when all members were alive .
A really young Warren Hayes.
Rest in musical peace dickey Betts.
Miss you ❤.
Warren HAYNEs
@John-vp8tj great interview just released w/Rick Beato and Warren

God bless you
Allman Bros Double D Dickey & Duane, Arguably Two of Greatest Guitarist in One Band,
Johnny was the best host for music. He really loved musicians.
Yes this sound mixing/ reinforcement and engineering is impeccable… those NBC technicians were great! The band sounds amazing ….

Yea! He was a drummer.
How about Wolfman Jack and The Midnight Special
@@jamesmcghee3440 I believe the bands roadies would have set up their equipment and been doing the mixing for them.
When you can seamlessly add a horn section to your band and it sounds even more amazing, you're doing it right.
there is a song "great minds drink alike" they added a horn section after the fact and as you say even more amazing, that song came to my mind as i read your comment
Hey kids, this is MUSIC. Real musicians, real talent. Off the charts stuff here.
For all the folks that think genres of music can't blend together...
Well said sir. About sums it up.

But not to forget Duane Allman, a guitar genius in his own right...and him and Dicley Betts together...? Music heaven!
Dickey is just so cool! He and Warren really made an awesome 2 guitar attack!
Nothing like a LesPaul
Best show ever!
Even without Duane's genius and brilliance, this was still one of the funkiest hard-rocking bands ever.
Totally ! and the Band from the South crushed it up North! They love the Allman Brothers.
OMG!!! Where can you see this talent on the left leaning talk shows? Thank God for Johnny Carson!!!
To all modern musicians on the radio, this is what talent looks like, i know you've never seen it before so take some notes though you may not know where to start.

That was seriously really cool. I've never seen that before, RIP Dickey Betts, one of the greatest ever!
A M A Z I N G !!! Can hardly believe this was on the Johnny Carson show.
Pretty sure I watched this live as a 13 year old
I am floored!!! Peel me up off my rug someone. If history is bound to repeat itself, how long do I have to wait for an occasion like this to come even close to a revelation? Today's music rots!!! Long Live Rock!
First saw them at Watkins Glen’73 love these boys for all my life…..Rock never dies!
I saw this in 1990 when it was on, enjoy it while you can because this level of talent and musicianship wont ever happen again.
I never say this, but...."true dat!"
Tu m'étonnes mon pote.. incroyable Allman brothers band!
Well, then there were Derek and Warren's renditions .
I have to disagree…there’s some good musicians out there that’s picked up where they left off and warren Haynes is still kickin it.
You got that right Seen them 6 times Nobody today comes close
Saw this when it aired back in 90-91 oh man this is sooooo friggin good!!! It's sad that a lot of these great musicians are gone. Doc, Warren and Jaimoe are still here. Getting old sucks.
AMAZING!!! Dickey, Warren and Gregg’s killer voice!!! Followed up with Doc the Tonight Show band!?!? Are you kidding me!!! Absolute CLASSIC!!!! Great players!!
Amazing Artist if you're willing!
man I miss Johnny Carson show
Me too friend.
Many thanks to Johnny for featuring elite musicians playing the best live music ever; and very nice to see the group when they looked much younger and healthier. Awesome trumpet solo in the last song Doc!
This will never happen again. Pure artistry and love for the music.
That's no shit! Music today is just plain crap! Now get off my lawn!😜
You could see Mr. Carson loved the jam session and was proud of his boys keeping pace. That was the first time I’d seen horns with the AB’s, pretty tasty
Keeping pace? Doc Sevrenson and his band are arguably the best band in the world, any genre, at this time
Been an Allmans fan forever but I just can't believe how great they sounded here. As a musician myself, I know you have some good nights and bad nights....this must have been a great night for the Allman Brother Band.- and what a rare treat hearing them with Doc and the boys!!
No comparisons between the Allman Brothers Band and the Tonight Show Orchestra.
Two great musical greats...we win.
And condoléances, Dicky Betts.

WOW, so tight!!! Dickey was at his prime, 20 years after Duane's passing. Love their sound then and now. God Love rock and roll!!!
All of that talent, on one stage!! Love it 😍
One of the greatest live performances of all time✌🏾👍🏾
This jam session should be in the Smithsonian institution in the music section. What a collaboration of different types and styles of musicians getting together to create something so beautiful. This is just priceless. I miss these days of the Carson show, I was a young buck then without a care in the world. Great video,thank you.
Yes it should! Two of the best bands ever!
BADASS

Today's music doesn't hold a candle to this. These are professional musicians at the height of their craft. Pure geniuses right here.🎸🎶
I agree
Wasn't a jam
Any rock music containing quality brass is superb!
Love the horns
Will Always Love Greg and Dickey. Just took my daughter to see All an Betts Band in Atlanta May 19 2024.
She's out of her mind in love with all of their history and music.
Wow! Music was music back then, what talent!
Warren Haynes and Allen Woody gave the Allman Bros. the boost they needed for a comeback...
Absolutely!
They sure did! I saw them around '93 then got into Gov't Mule. Both bands were insanely great back then. The Allmans kind of lost it without Dickey.
The Allman Brothers were original, cool dudes. I am glad that I saw them twice in concert. Boy, could they jam.
You know you're talking rock royalty when Doc comes to Johnny and says, "hey, we gotta jam with these guys." The result is a win for every viewer of any age, any musical genre.
How have i missed this extraordinary video all these years?!!!!!!! Hilarious the Allmans playing with the suit and tie guys!!

@@jerrygarcia2138 Also a very excellent duo.
Yes that was some tasty slide
He flat out brought the Allman's back to life.
Great horn charts undoubtedly written by Doc, they sound great.
I suspect Tommy did the charts. He was the primary arranger.
Late Night TV when it was worth staying up for . This is 17:10 of Pure Allman Brothers Bliss .
It is stunning how young Mr. Warren Haynes looks in this video. Seen him live many times, but not back this far, great collaboration with Doc Severnson and the Tonight Show Band. Lots of fun. RIP Gregg Allman, Allen Woody and Butch Trucks.
Somewhere on RUclips there's video of Warren playing with David Allen Coe and he looks so young (early/mid 80s perhaps?). Warren is incredible, cheers
R.I.P. Dickey Betts too.

Where's the WOW button when you need it? This is GREAT!
Wow! Absolute old school magic! 🤠
Thank you Allman Brothers for Being a Big part of my Life,,,,,
The jazz jam was absolutely amazing proving once again how amazing both the ABB and the Severinson orchestra were ....glad i was alive to see it!
Priceless. Ought to be in the Smithsonion.

This was true late night entertainment. A comedic legend, one of the greatest rock bands in history along with the fabulous Tonight Show Orchestra. The current crop of late night "entertainers" are absolute crap compared to this . .
Classic performances I just love the Allman Brothers.
Bless their hearts for doing this !! I'm sure The Tonight Show band was very honored to play with the best ❤
Incredible, the brothers and the tonight band absolutely rocked it. I miss those days!
That tribute to Byrd was breathtaking! Where’s the WOW button!
So cool seeing Doc Severson again. The man would hit these notes possibly above high C, and his eyeballs would look like they were ready to pop! This showing is a first for me, and I almost never missed Carson.
Having seen every act in the business, and being a drummer on the side, Johnny Carson knew great music, and he loved the Brothers.
Charlie Jervi: Johnny Carson was also a drummer.
Very true. My husband is a drummer of 40years. Said A,Bros were one of his top 3favs.Drums forever.Chicago
@@janetmobilia8078 y'all know who co-wrote the tonight show theme? Paul Anka w/J Carson
@@RichardMcLamore really eh? That's awesome. Cheers
Great collection from Johnny's show.
RIP Brother Dickey, one of a kind player, songwriter, singer, innovator.
RIP Gregg, Johnny and Doc. These clips are smokin! Growing up in the 60's everyone watched the Ed Sullivan Show for great musical performances. When you were older you could stay up and watch Carson at 1130pm who had on the next generation of comedians plus some great music.
It's hard to explain to someone who wasn't thee, it was an amazing era that will never be duplicated.
He loved Chuck berry and bb king,had them on many times
I think Doc is still kicking
@@larrycornwell4626 He is still around...in his 90s, getting close to 100!
Incredible, and Gregg, yowza! Kudos to the sound people (and band), good mix.
Warren's killin' it. As others have mentioned, no pitch correction, no computers, no bullshit.
Absolutely killin' it! I challenge anyone to name a group that played with more power, precision, and skill. RIP, Gregory. I never knew you but I always felt you were my brother.

Tower of Power, early Chicago, were powerhouse bands. Allman’s were great but for me, when Dickey got kicked out, the live shows suffered.
true, trucks bores me to tears. just saw him & Susan. I left after 5 songs. monumental boredom
One of the most UNDERRATED bands ever!!! Not the Allmans!!! Their greatness is solidified in music history. I'm talking Doc Severanson, Eddie Shaunessy and the Tonight Show Band!!!
The Allmans were never underrated. Everyone knew they were phenomenal and one of a kind. They set a musical precedent that can't be duplicated. There's always one comment about some musician being underrated in every post. 🙄
My comment, if you read it correctly, was implying The Tonight Show Band IS the underrated band... There's always one comment replying to something they misread.
agree. Most people think of Doc as a Carson sideshow; however, he and the band were fantastic musicians.
Johnny was loving it !!
That's great !
Gregg sounds great here..and
.. the band so tight..thank you
Two of the best American guitarists. Great comeback album.
Doc backed by that true Hammond sound. Cannot be duplicated.......This IS as good as it gets.....
What a pleasure to see good musicians.
When the Tonight Show band joined in, that was possibly the most talent ever assembled on a Carson stage. Wow!
Wow! Just Wow!
1990,1991 is so much overlooked.
Saw Allmans, 3rd on the bill, behind headliner Savoy Brown, winter 70...71.
Real musical talent. Gregg sounds great. Johnny really enjoyed them. Doc Severinsen is an amazing trumpeter.
Doesn't get any better Johnny and the Allman Brothers! Greg in his prime: Long, cool drink of water and simply a bad ass out-law with the voice of a blues god!!
you nailed it!!! incredible voice and performance by all
gregg was one heck of a singer!
"Long cool drink of water"?? Lol
Perfect description !
@@fflubadubb not really. You have strange taste.
Doc absolutely dug in deep for his solo on "Kind of Bird"; watch him reach for that high note. Dickey and Warren both matched as tight as ever, and cheers for the birthday boy today, Butch, for blasting away on the kit.
Warren Haynes tearing it up! Haynes and Betts, what a duo!
As far as ever "replacing" Duane you couldn't do much better than Warren..he is a legend in his own right.
@@jamesmack3314 plays in Gov't Mule now.
Knew that.....
Hi Joe Smith, Just wanna tell u that the 1st time I got to sit right up in front of this Seven Turns show was in Chicago, in summer, outside...I was 36 then. Wow, what an experience to be right up in it..me and the ol man of mine were in heaven. This is a standout for this band. Thinking about it now, older and health in devline, I am still amazed as a yound girl
These guys would look u in the eye, they were frienly and wanted to engage u. From that show forward, we saw them 7 ×. I got to be a known face to Gregg, who would always kindly put my purse and belongings up by him and once sent me a pain pill w/a Perrier for an obvious migraine. A sweetheart. Also, I met Warren and Allen Woody at 3a.m. outdide Buddy Guy's Legends when they came outta their bus after a Gov't Mule show. Only a few of us remained quiet on the sidewalk and out came all 3 of them to sign autographs and share a joint. That was the ABB mag cover w/them on it that was signed. It sits in a beautiful frame in my living room still. I didn't get to sit close to anybody til 1990. but started going to concerts in winter of 1965 at age if 9! That was the Hollies, again in Chicago. That folowing summer of 1965, The Beatles at 10 yrs old w/,my Dad who laughed his ass off at all the crazy screaming girls.
I fell in love w/music at about 6 yrs old for no reason at all. It took me 27 yrs to sit up close...and got truly spoiled! I coulda had a nice retirement from all that $ spent on concerts. But Soooo glad I spent it.
Those memories make my 66 yr old sick self feel better in my soul than any $ ever could.
Keep the music alive Joe and spread it around . I find very few who give a damn about it. God bless, peace and love.
You Betts your ass they were!
says a lot for the allman bros playing w one of the great horn sections great performance and great musicianship from both sides. spectacular !
Paul Bissonnette yup
I headed up to 11, Am I dual zone speakers rocking out
I just got goosebumps after that finished.
What a fabulous band.
Rest in musical peace all that have passed 🙏.
PURE LIVE
TALENT 🎉.
I MISS IT.
I miss you Gregg. Every day in every way. So thankful for the 7 shows I was lucky enough to see. Thanks boys.
Perfection. Absolutely the best.
Great Band on the Best stage. They dont make rock n roll or talk show hosts like that anymore. RIP
@Big Bill O'Reilly You just had to spoil this great video with politics? Sheesh.
I would put Letterman in the same category. He is a huge music fan and his appreciation for the songwriting genius of Warren Zevon was on full display when he devoted an entire show in tribute.
@Big Bill O'Reilly Hmmmm..... your name is Bill O'Reilly and I'm the Trumptard? On that note, back to listening to good music for me. I will leave you to your ill-informed trolling. Ciao.

@Big Bill O'Reilly There are NO great talk show hosts now. Please stay off the meth if you're going to be commenting in public forums.
Wow! Thanks for posting this! I've never seen it before.
Was at Fillmore East for the live recording of Whipping Post in 1971. Grateful to have experienced so much great music.
