Summary:
On this date, Bill Graham assembled a stellar roster of bands to participate in the filming of a television special called Welcome To The Fillmore East for broadcast on educational channels. Short sets were filmed by the Byrds, the Elvin Bishop Group, Sha-Na-Na, Van Morrison, and the Allman Brothers Band, as well as behind-the-scenes footage of Bill Graham and the Fillmore East staff at work.
The Allman Brothers performance is nothing short of spectacular and features the original lineup that included Duane Allman and Berry Oakley. Recorded six months prior to the legendary Live At Fillmore East double album set, this performance captures the Allman Brothers when they were a relatively new band, full of youthful passion and performing what would become classic original material when it was fresh and new.
Following Bill Graham's introduction, they kick things off with a tight performance of "Don't Keep Me Wonderin'," which features the band's friend, Tom Doucette, blowing harp over the group's trademark sound. Gregg's vocal is barely audible, but it's obvious the group is full of fire. "Dreams," which follows, slows things down a bit and the group establishes a relaxed groove that showcases their trademark sound, blending elements that would eventually come to define "Southern Rock."
They hit their stride on the next number, Dickey Betts' "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed." Here, the dual guitar attack of Allman and Betts is astounding. The two guitarists intertwine and synchronize in a manner nothing short of telepathic, creating a melting pot seasoned with elements of jazz, rock, country, and blues into a style utterly their own. The set ends with a ferocious take of "Whipping Post" that features outstanding melodic bass playing from Berry Oakley, with both Duane Allman and Dickey Betts soaring over the propulsive rhythm section. Shorter than the expansive versions that would develop in coming months, this is all the more fascinating for it, as they compress an incredible amount of energy into the time allotted.
Time constrictions and vocal microphone malfunctions aside, this is still a fascinating performance. This original lineup of the band was certainly one of the most innovative and captivating bands to ever play the Fillmore.

Most people just don"t realize what a masterpiece this performance is. It should be entered in the Library of Congress as pure American classic music. Footage of Duane playing live is rare and needs safekeeping for future generations.
@@1fatcat65 of it wasn't for the likes of Duane among other, Eddie would just be a wet shot on the sheet!
@@fredallen7493 Well considering Alex and Eddie were trained by their dad at the age of 3 means you speak bullshit! Do better!🤓
Gives me butterflies in my stomach the second I hear a lick of instruments.
@@1fatcat65 gotta keep in mind Duane was only 22 years old playing like that.
@@1fatcat65 If that's what your neighbor sounds like then what's the HoA fees like because goddamn
I remember seeing them in Cookville, TN in 1970. I sat on the floor at Duane's feet and watched every move he made. Inspired me for life.
Jaimoe. and Butch. were magical. together
Is only one Duane Allman and there will always be only one Duane Allman. RIP brother.
fuckin a
That solo breaks my heart every time. Even after all these years of hearing it, it still makes my eyes water.
My cousin married in New Orleans, I want to say in 1968 outside of City Park Stadium and the Allman Brothers were playing. They invited all the wedding memebrs to their concert. It was the first time I ever heard of them and have been a huge fan ever since. I was very lucky in life to see them 12 times.
RIP Dickey! Now there is only one left😢
Yes. We at least still have Jaimoe.
Thank God for 2/13/70 - 2/14/70 - 12/12/70 - 3/12/71 - 3/13/71 - 6/4/71 - 6/25/71 - 6/26/71 - 8/15/71 - 9/10/71 when I had the joy and privilege of seeing and hearing the great Duane Allman play live......................and I thought it was just the beginning.
You lucky bastard. (And I mean that in the kindest, yet most jealous way possible).
it WAS the beginning, and then the UNFAIRNESS of this existence took over AND WE WERE ROBBED
❤❤❤❤❤
Duanes solo is soo touching. He plays with so much feeling. This is the best version of Dreams I've heard. RiP Duane, Gregg, Barry, and Butchie 🙏🙏🙏
Listen to their version in San Francisco in 71! I think it is their best version. Duane soars
@@paulcudone4642share a link please!
The best!!!😂❤
So damn good🎸🎸
All comments so heartfelt and on point. I follow the second gen and they honour their Dads and Uncles and other family connections. AB is a big part of my soul.
Duane playing slide was like listening to someone’s soul singing, without boundaries or inhibitions. He gave the electric guitar a human voice, a human soul.
Whether he was shrieking, or mourning, or announcing his youthful manhood with a kind of swaggering exuberance that was all his own, he sang to all of us thru that instrument, for the ages.
Duane clearly proving he was the best modern blues rock player ever.
ronnie van zant was no fool [apart from chartering aeroplanes] and he mentioned duane more than once at their concerts "play it for duane allman"
Since there aren't many videos with Duane in it, this is one of the better ones.
This, one way out, in the memory of Elizabeth Reed and Whipping Post are such incredible songs. It just says everything about how outrageously great they were.
I would add EVERY song they ever played! It just got better until ...
Live at the Fillmore East. What's better than that? Except to have been there!
@@woodstocker1969 I was there. The first night, orchestra, 16th row. When it was over, we walked out in morning daylight. The Fillmore East was the only venue in NY at first. I lived close by and went there all the time and luckily saw them there twice. Second time was the closing night. It was luck that I was in the right time, right place, right mind.
In 13 months after this concert, Duane would be gone and a year after that, Barry would be gone. Both crashed on their motorcycles within a mile of same spot of road and buried next to each other. Barry never had a day of peace, unable to get over Duane's death. After all these decades, it all still breaks my heart. They had only just begun. Their music got me thru my late teens, they showed me what real music was and were a direct influence on what I loved to listen to ever since. Each band member had top-shelf musicianship.
Now Gregg is buried with them. Was wonderful that after so many years, he got clean, kept on with his music and helped others. He was a very grateful sober man.
I've said this on other ABB post's but I got Clean and Sober in 1993 Listening repeatedly to this music. I Love it more now 30 years later than at any other time in My life. I remember as a young teen hearing Rambling Man for the first time. They left an indelible mark on Our Souls and we are so Grateful.
Berry
@@frereanaktom99 I believe Barry didnt die by accident. Alcohol, depression...
Can't believe it's been 50 years. Timeless. Absolutely timeless music. How fortunate are we!
IOne of my greatest trips on mushrooms was laying on my couch with my eyes closed to this song. I was front row watching this jam. My absolute favorite song of all time.
I encourage us all to take a moment to note that this was only 5 days after Jimi Hendrix's untimely death. His autopsy was performed on September 21st, and he was not buried until October 1st-- he wasn't even in the ground yet. So the death of Hendrix would have been a heavy and fresh reality in the hearts and minds of these fellow true musicians. There's that little extra dark depth to this beautiful performance-- you can feel it... Rest in peace to all the departed... We will all be together again soon enough...
Dreams I’ll never see...
you are correct.
Jeez. My bday is Sept 20. Wasn't born til 81 but still. Thanks for sharing that. Hard to believe '70 was just 11 years before I was born. 11 yrs ago was just 2010. Seems like yesterday.
@@waltbianchi4828 you know Dickey was asked what, song he thought they'd all be up there playing together...Duane, Berry, Ronnie, Steve Gaines, etc...and Dreams was his response. I believe that even more today with Gregg & Butch having joined them at this point 🙏❤️🎸🍄🍑✌️
All my older brothers were listening to this.pI was just a young pup but I got into the rock and roll
The sound coming out of Duane's guitar is beautiful.
I am not sure if anyone knew how this song would stand the test of time and still have such an impact on us 50 years later....I still get chills. This is history.
I saw these guys in 1969 at Troy State University in the gymnasium! Seems like we might have been sitting on the floor and you could almost reach out and touch them!! I get chills all over every time I hear that song! They were the best blues rock band ever!
Hauntingly beautiful! Nobody than or now ever played music like this!!!
Grateful dead
I was with my father when I was 7 and the band playing was the Allman's. Spring of 71, I saw Duane LIVE and I've never recovered from the impact of the Blues and Slide Guitar. The only person in the game is Derek Trucks, just watch how everybody at Cross Roads crammed into see Derek and Susan Live
Derek Trucks
Underated is a understatement when it comes to Duane Allman….this song solidifies that!!!
I’ve listened to this masterpiece only yesterday for the first time.. how could I have missed this for so many years…!?!
This should be taught in the history books.. such a gem!
What amazes me is the fact that these guys are in their early 20s!
Wow
when they were in their thirties they became like a tribute band. Duane was the driving force and then Berry sadly got killed. all downhill since then. still, sad to hear of gregg's passing. great blues singer.
I got to see this line up of the Allman Brothers Band twice. Sure miss them
Check that bass groove ….Chills. RIP Duane, Berry, Butch and Gregg. Thank you for making my little life so much better. Peace brothers.
Man do I feel lucky that I can just watch this anytime I feel like it.
Exactly. We need to pray to & thank the youtube gods everyday that they stay as they are and never change.
That three note descending bass riff is absolute magic - so redolent of southern landscapes and history. A masterclass in what in effect is modern folk music, and these guys were absolute masters. Library of Congress citation should be a given; at least one surviving President was/is a great fan of these guys.
Who?
@@mellow5123 Carter.
Glad Dickie and Jaimoe are still with us.
Dickie Betts just died today
Listening to Duane is an experience of pure beauty and greatness. A superb player, one of the best guitarists ever.
YOU KNOW IT!
This band with this lineup is so near perfect it boggles my mind still.
It doesn't get any better than this. RIP Duane and Greg
It does - as good as this is and its awesome, Molly Hatchets version is killer.
I love this song.
Me too
The greatest American rock band ever.
and skynyrd
One of the greats (for me). They were for sure a Heaven sent band. ✨️💖💖💖✨️
Just remember kiddie's, If you are in a Band, and Dickie Betts is SECOND fiddle, You are in the presence of greatness....
no doubt!
As Duane did say, "I'm the famous guitar player, Dickie's the good one"
@@nickurban3831 Duane was the legend
@@nickurban3831 He said that because he respected his band members, not because Betts had anything on him. Please.
@@richardfolkman Actually, Dickie was a talented writer as well as a great player,.......and it was dickie who invited Duane to join the band in the first place.......
I absolutely love this song. Noticing Gregg's mic was too low was heartbreaking.
They had a technical glitch. This was supposed to have aired on PBS, but because of the mic issue on this (and the first sing of the set), it didn't.
I agree! Bad sound men!
@@steved.1556 not the sound men just equipment failing :P
I am heart broken 😞 This this is my favorite ABB song! 😢
Vocals come in on the last verse
One of the Best guitar solos ever made😊
It's amazing man.. two drummers in the band and Duane snaps and counts everybody in.. he was definitely the leader of a hell of a bunch of fine musicians..
Glad to have seen them about 8 times great stuff,god bless them all!!America #1
Damn, these guys had such a tightass rhythm section to back up these 2 amazing guitarists... Just such a tight, perfectly-played band as there ever was... classic...
Best band ever! No doubt. I'm 71 Still love I sae
Saw them at the Fillmore East. Still love listening to them. Forever the best
It really was a triple threat as Gregg sang like a man tortured on the rack and his organ playing was top flight. You had Duane and Dickie and while most critics believe Duane was the better, it was also said that these two shared a telepathic connection. Shalom
@@earlroyce7367 this band The Allman Brothers band they are phenomenal yeah Earl this particular song but I would define is bluesy Rock what do you think Earl
@@michaelbrickley2443 yeah Michael I totally agree with you that's what it sounds like like he's being tortured but it's bluesy Rock that's what it is I love it I love everything, brothers ever did they will always be remembered in the name of southern Rock 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵
There are many many great guitarists, but no one played like Duane, he is the most moving, soulful player I've ever laid ears on..Here's to Brother Duane "Skydog" Allman..
Duane said he was trying sound like Little Walters harmonica on the slide.
....."sunbeams shinning through his hair, bareknuckled have a care, well pick up your gear and gypsy roll on....roooolllll on"
Mark Garno I’m pretty sure it’s “appearing not to have a care”.
There was never a brother who so loved his own to take the hits to stay in the game to the brother skydog wanted. Talk about a left to fulfill a brothers love to the game.
I cannot comp what Gregg gave in years for a brother. This artist took a lot of hits to a huge wacked up loss to his own soul
RIP Dickey - Been a Huge Fan of the ABB since back in High School in the 70's. Live at the Fillmore Album was the Best Live Album Ever.
I used to have a Train Caboose in my Back Yard where we all Partied & Tripped out. Spent many hours listening to Live at the Fillmore Album. Thanks for all the Good Times. ABB Stole the show at Woodstock 2 back in "94". Say "Hi" to Duane & the Brothers for me. See you in the Next World..
Brother Duane, channeling the universe. God love him.
Yes brother and so much so...
🙏
That crying tone in Duane's guitar always makes me feel high. And Butch and Jaimo are hypnotic. Berry was a master of rhythm, creating his own atmosphere behind the lead instruments. So sorry Greg's mike was off. Listened to this on vinyl as a teenager when we couldn't know about the technical difficulties. There never was a better incarnation of this band. RIP Duane, Berry, Butch and Greg.
And, yeah, when Dickie is your rhythm guitarist, it really puts you on your game.
Greatest song ever written
How f'ing phenomenal were these guys. One of the greatest bands ever. Trend setters, unbelievable jammers, musicians, and people. It just gives me chills every time I see them as this. Love them and what they produced. Can't be replicated.
I could watch and listen to Duane play all day and night.
Listening to this in my bedroom with a joint in my mouth back in the early 70's were sure the happiest days of my life.
I was born In the wrong times.
those were really good days to be alive in America. musically speaking. not Nam, not the racism, but the music scene was awesome.
I hear ya Mick... They were such beautiful times and it will always be a huge part of that sliver of time in my life... I cant believe how fast it all goes by.
Hope you're doing well My Friend
@@srpdesigns i suppose we all had that special sliver that luckily we can't forget.
@@totc6196 No. don't ever think that man. We need you to keep this happening.
such concentration and soul put in by everyone RIP Duane, Greg, Berry, Butch and now Dickey Thanks for the fantastic music saw them many times at the Warehouse in New Orleans
Duane doesn’t play the guitar, he becomes the guitar
Most accurate statement Ive read all day
He slept with it
Mathew green overrated player. Sloppy as fuck. Derek trucks vastly superior as is Warren. Duane is most overrated guitar player in history. Average player. Never wrote a song or sang. Don’t buy hype Warren Haynes is the best
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 that's the opinion of a true idiot.
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 haynes sucks
Doesn't get any better than this. A true masterpiece.
I've never understood why fans...followers of ABB insist on going back and forth about who is better than whom. Does it really matter?!? None of this glorious music would exist in the form we all love without each and every one of the guys. Duane, Dickey...both guitar GODS. Why can't that be the one and only answer?!?
It is for most of us😊
My fav all time band!
Man, Jaimoe's rolls were so freakin' tight and clean.
That sound Duane makes from 6:05 to 6:40 is why he is an all time great...it's insane...it's like he is rising from the dead in a swamp ..I just wish the camera was on him during that.... unbelievable!
Two drummers as one...
Man to play the guitar like this so young god bless Duane
The best band ever
Amazing….and as a musician I’d like to point out something else that’s lost these days. The art of improvisation. These guys put themselves out there. They weren’t afraid to make mistakes. They weren’t afraid to not sound exactly like the record.
This is master class stuff folks…..
Yes those days are gone there is no one left?
Yup master class stuff never to be repeated.sadly
Yeah, it's all pretty cut and dried these days. You can thank the endless quest for digital perfection, auto tune, beat detective, Cutting and pasting without playing the song all the way through. If you do that long enough, the next generation won't have the faintest idea how to improvise. Most people are used to being micromanaged and told what to do from womb to tomb anyway.
......I think real jamming and improvisation would scare most people nowadays.
@@jpalberthoward9 that shit sounds sterile! Thank god they recorded some real improvisional music before it’s gone forever! Yup exactly what is happening to this great music
@@mjwolosz9224 to my ears, it's ridiculous, monotonous robot noise. It never changes tempo, there are no breaks, no key changes no bridges, no solos, no instruments except for the same digital keyboard presets on every song (?) What do you call this stuff anyway? And the same canned beat on all of it.
Now, take "we can work it out" from the Beatles. It has 3 different time signatures and a key change within a 3&1/2 minute song. Within that short time span, it takes you on a little musical journey, and back home again like a good composition should do. If they heard this drivel that passes for music today,
I think Duane and the boys would probably either laugh or throw up.
pure brilliance and passion. RIP Duane , Berry, Butch and Gregg
... Lamar, Woody, Dan...
When my cat was ill he would lay on my bed & I would lay with him & play dreams on repeat on my phone. He's better now but still loves to lay & listen to his favourite song. Love Duane to bits.
"lie" on the bed.
How could I have forgotten how much I LOVED this band in the day? I had all the albums but stuff like this is magical compared to what we had then and oh so very welcomed
I NEVER GOT TIRED OF ABB I LISTEN TO THEM EVERY DAY ! SOME OF MY FRIENDS THINK I'M CRAZY .
That brother was in a zone all by himself. Masterpiece.
I got to see this live for my 13th birthday. I had no idea what my Aunt took me to see and left a changed human being.
Bless her heart.
Oh wow!!!!! Best Aunt!
I'm sure you left changed... Who wouldn't??
What an Aunt!
Wow. She loved you to bits.
You were blessed You have a wonderful aunt ❤️
One of the best phycadelic jams of all times! Is it blues,jazz,rock? It is simply the genius of The Allman Brothers!! RIP brother Greggg,
It’s a healthy mix of Blues, Southern Rock, and Psychedelic Rock
@@briantaylor2.023 and waltz. Their songs in 3/4 time are steeped deeply in southern culture. Dreams takes me to a grand ballroom of Beau's and Belle's. Just fantastic.
found myself wishing this song would never end.
If you go listen to 9/19 from Stonybrook they played 2 songs for the second set. Dreams and Elizabeth Reed. I was directly under Duane for both songs.
This is so beautiful. To die so young was such a terrible tragedy. He took so much with him. R.I.P. Duane and Greg and so many other incredible musicians.
I am grateful that we have these videos so available. Watching Duane play is amazing. I know the video was filmed in 1970, but when a guitarist is playing a solo, I would focus on the guitar - the entire guitar - where Duane is creating the amazing magic.
Cameramen and video editors to this day rarely have a clue about how to focus on the soloist. Diane is ripping and they show Dickey. Very irritating .
I agree with you but watching Duane's full perspective he looks just like an angel.
Cameraman sucks
The '71 Filmore show puts this song to shame, best live version ever
Fuck what a great time. Such a great band. They just clicked as a group.
I can listen to this on repeat. No one speaks though they’re guitar like this.
Man! We miss you, Allman Brothers. Rest in Peace, fellas. This world wouldn't be what is is had there not been ABB.
THANK YOU. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Dickey, Butch, Barry, Duane, Gregg, Jaimo, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks and everyone else who made up ABB over the years. Thank you.
Amen brother!
Duane Allman was sent from the heavens to play the guitar and inspire others to play and/or appreciate music.
Keep. Duane. Alive!!!
Man The Brothers came to Dayton, Ohio in September of ‘71. I actually watched these boys play their asses off…..My life changed that night….as long as we have these vids they at their prime will live on! Thanks so much for sharin’ this great show!
Shit they are my favorite band still. 68 in April
Saw the gregg Allman band when he was all f up. Cher!? Haha
Best time ever. Marshall Tucker was there?!
Losing Duane and Jimi was a major loss for the rock world.
This music is timeless and hits home. I could not imagine being part of this type of magic at such a young age. These men…this group….was meant to be.
RIP Mr. Betts!!!!
Duane's playing at 3:17 is just pure soul coming out through his guitar. So beautiful.
@James,
I felt it... as though something deep inside my pelvis needs to be released.
Did he switch to slide because I thought I was hearing a violin
Berry Oakley’s tone. Never mentioned. As a bassist myself, I’ll stack his warm low end up against anyone..
I'll mention Berry's tone! It's what takes you into dreamland!
He takes tone and turns it into timbre...much harder to do in the low register (-;]
Totally agree. Berry sadly never gets mentioned when there's talk of all time greatest classic rock bassists. He's way up there with the best of them
you betcha
keep on truckin' ... i guess, to keep the vein going
The 3/4 time signature and tempo of Dreams is such a fantastic treat. A Southern rock Waltz.
Amen to that. If you haven't already heard it, see if you can find John Coltrane's version of "My Favorite Things" it's also a triplet 3/4 time feel, and Coltrane takes a very ordinary show tune from "The Sound of Music" and transforms it into something that Rogers and Hammerstein would never have dreamed of in a million years. If you play it, and then listen to "in Memory of Elizabeth Reed" back to back, you'll be pleasantly surprised. You might notice a whole other level of Allman Brother genius. The boys definitely had large ears and well tuned radar.
This song hit me in the core years ago ...I came home and started playing it ..my guitar friend said “That’s Dreams”..I said let’s do it ...and I have loved that song forevermore..❤️
How many bands sound better live than a recording studio? The real deal ABB. Thanks for all the memories bro's and still get choked up listening 50 years later...look after one another up there, blessings.
Beautiful music from a legendary band. 👍
These 6 young men were creating a part of American culture and history . Arguably , the Allman Brothers Band
were the start of a whole new type of music . American art and a new way of looking at The Blues and the
South's, African , American heritage . Rock and Roll had its roots in the South , and ABB made it pure .
Anyone that argues with that has a problem. lol NO ONE ever approached (this style of music) The ABB at their best in this period.
I'd call this blues-jazz fusion. Their own unique style. Incomparable.
Link Wray, a Native American, started the Power Chord for the likes of Pete Townsend and Jim Hendrix; a parallel movement.
One thing I rarely see amongst the comments is the observation that this was a time of fertile cross pollination between many genres. Folk, electric, country, jazz, soul were being blended by Miles, Sly, Jimi, the Byrds after Gram joined were progenitors of what became country rock. The late 60’s were a volatile magical time and the early 70’s extended it. These guys got back together and began their long stand of shows at the Beacon and night after night, they were like Duke Ellingtons band, playing the repertoire just a little different, sometimes a lot different in the solos and order of who played first. Seeing this footage just reminds me of how much we lost after Duane rode into the sunset. Shalom
Just the other night I was watching this band's take on "Whipping Post," in particular Betts' eastern-influenced solo and it brought to mind how this was a time of amazing cross pollination in music.
@@reddove108 one thing Duane was listening to and I’m sure the others, was Miles Davis Kind of Blue. You’re certainly on point with your comment. The late 60’s and early 70’s saw the birth of country rock, jazz fusion, funk and rock and soul….an amazing time to be alive if you had adventurous tastes/ears. Prog also came out and was great to a point and then became over bearing in self import and ego
@@michaelbrickley2443 I can see that with Duane. For Betts I was hearing traces of East/West" with Bloomfield and Bishop fronting Butterfield. Also towards the end where Betts is waving his palm over the pickuos, which I read as a jazz-like attempt to create new kinds of sounds.
I was too young to see Duane but lucky to see Gregg twice and Dickey once. Sone of that playing can really hit home.
@@reddove108 everybody worth their salt was mixing influences. Listen to Santana on the first three albums, and then listen to Caravanserai.
I really think Hendrix’ Electric Ladyland started the jazz fusion in rock
One of the Best. We miss all of you Guys So Very Much!
His sunburst les paul was gorgeous
How cool is it to see Duane & Berry in action!
If you've listened to this and don't think this one of the best all time song and performances........your asleep my friend.
Joe W.
Ever thought about what was going on inside his head?
Or you just simply have different musical taste
I can tell you exactly: The music. And nothing else. It filled him.
yep
yep
And I was 5 years and 1 day old for Fillmore East...Born, bred and raised on this music---Blessed...Thank You, Daddy! Thank you and God Bless ABB...especially Duane, Gregg and Butch...Jamming in Heaven for sure with Daddy!
As I was also born in 1964 / my father played this stuff and I love it !!!
During Duane’s best slide work, the camera is zooming in on betts’ head... what a missed opportunity to capture an important moment
Nobody knew back then what would happen. That 50 yrs later people would be trying to find anything Duane-related that they could. No one imagined people would study Duane's playing like a book in an attempt to emulate the best there ever was and ever will be.
I mean, they knew Duane was great back then. Dickey, too. But they really had no idea. Duane probably did. He was destined to be great and he knew it according to the rest of The Brothers.
yes...is infamouse...really...ignorant
At least they weren't zoomed in on the drummer like usual. Or bass
But yeah... Idiots with cameras
Duane: *Plays greatest solo ever*
Cameraman: Let me film everything *except* Duane’s hands...
Use your ears boi
Beautiful music!
Rest In Peace to the Brothers there music will live on for years to come
You get 'em Skydog!!! Nobody has EVER topped your unique style (and slide, omg) and talent!!!. Your music has kept me (almost) sane for over 40 years!!!
Same here! I truly wonder how different our world would be, if Duane had lived to a ripe old age...
No prettier guitar ever played than Duane Allman!
Dickey and Duane are jamming in rock & roll heaven, the music and legend lives on
Duane's solo in this song is amazinggg!!!!
As Duane turns to Gregg and says, "Look little brother", History in the books.
as much of an impact that duane and dickey's twin lead guitar stuff had on the sound of their music, the absolute powerhouse freight train that was butch and jaimoe had every bit as much an impact on the sound of this band. There aren't very many drummers who you could identify with no other musical context, but you can instantly identify this drum section as butch and jaimoe without any doubt. The ABB simply would not be what it was without those two back there laying a rock solid foundation on every tune. That sound they had was incredible even just by itself, but paired with the rest of the top notch musicians in that band it became even more alive and powerful. There has not ever been a drumming duo quite like those two.
Mickey hart had an instantly known style.
@@BlindVeganRescue lmao what style is that? These days you’d can’t even hear Mickey in the mix (of course, he does play with a handful of uncooked spaghetti in each hand as drum sticks, which probably plays a part in how quiet he is now lol) to be able to discern a style 😂. He just bangs around on a bunch of bongos and djembes and stuff seemingly with no real rhyme or reason nowadays lol
@@STSGuitar16 you're a nut job.
You're right, I was thinking they play like a couple of jazz drummers back there with this song. Finessed it.
@@1viridis I also recommend checking out Bill Kreutzman’s drumming in the Grateful Dead from 1972. He had a totally unique and jazzy style that is every bit as cool as Butch and Jaimoe, imo. Billy is right up there with Butch and Jaimoe for sure.
This is the ABB and Duane at his best. No one comes close to Skydog's sound....my favorite guitar player of all time. I was a very small child when he passed, but always loved his playing after hearing it. Gone too soon, RIP Skydog...Gregg, Berry and Butch too.
This reminds me of the devotional Sufi music that came out of Pakistan.
