I feel the same. He was one of the best in my personal Guitar World. He made 80 years - I don't know if I can reach this. So R.I.P. Mister Dickey Betts!
I won't harsh on Dickey Betts, however, he is underrated because he just plays. Sometimes that happens when a instrumentalist is really good; he goes on automatic. I've seen the Allman Brother's perform LIVE many times, and though his performance is technically good, he has underwhelmed the audience.
I was stationed outside of Macon in Oct 71 when Duane died in the motorcycle wreck. A really dark day when the news came out in that whole area. Was topic of discussion in small groups, bars, clubs etc. But the guys went on later to celebrate his legacy.
I am 68 and the Allman Brothers were always my favorite. I have seen alot of bands live over the years but only one ever gave me goosebumps watching them and that is Dickie Betts playing this song back in the day.
RIP to the man behind the guitar and under the hat. What a legend. Have a great journey in your new life. Thanks for sharing your your life in music with the world
I agree. We had the best music. And concerts were so inexpensive. Just guys up there on stage performing. Not the big expensive productions you have now a days. The best of times.
@Gary Corson it's 10 pm in the laurel highlands of PA. I'm listening because we babyboomers (68 yrs) had the very best music 🎶 and these tunes evoke memories of some of the best times in my life. 🌹
@@CMG423 funny I just got done listening to this song on my bike not 20 minutes ago Came home & saw your comment….I usually listen at least twice a week…Reminds me I’m still alive✌️👉
Wow. Like many. My Dad loves this and due to time difference, shares a birthday with Jessica Betts, Dickey's daughter. It's the most joyous piece of music.
I almost think his playing pushed this lineup into the tightest ABB incarnation. They were on a whole nuther level and I think he’s got a lot to do with that.
@@jackminor2320 David Goldflies.... apparently Allman didn't like him., so he was out pretty quickly. The Toler brothers on guitar and drums also helped make this version of the band a great lineup.
I thought he was awesome! Gregg didn’t like him though- Between Tom producing and all of us playing together, everything went pretty smoothly. The only thing I didn’t like about recording that album was David Goldflies, the new bass player. His playing wasn’t in the toilet, but it wasn’t very good either. The guy must have thought he was getting paid by the note, the way he would play those banjo notes on the bass. My Cross To Bear Gregg Allman
This song is an instant happiness drug. One of the most soaring rock guitar melodies ever written, and that incredible piano solo on the album by the great Chuck Leavell was made up on the spot.
@pauljordan4452 yes I know. It was just a play on impact to Top Gear with Jessica. Sometimes it's just great to enjoy the hyperbole. It wasn't meant to be literal
I was at American U when eat a peach came out- as I walked dowm=n the Dorm Hall it was playing in half the rooms. I SEE HIS ANMAZING talent, but this song was just too much pickin, hill billy- I bet he did not use a les Paul in studio?? I was into the beginning of GRIN, where nothiong NILS played got old. Still to=day, I love their "Moon Tears " sound. I now have to research who wrote Alman's gorgeous ballads!! But make it clear This is NOT rock, the same way way the Eagles were not.
When the Allman Brothers formed, they had 2 lead guitars, 2 drummers, and 2 guys playing keyboards. People said, "What the hell?" But now they just say, "Damn!" They broke the mold.
10/10. that bass sound is sadly not picked up well. I imagine 4 10's just pointed directly at him on stage feeling the bass. Plus that guitar is known for it's low end. I hope they had some massive subs at the live show.
Damn, I have listened to this song 100s of times since it was released in the early 70s. I never get tired of it and this live version sounds is a PERFECT rendition of the original recording! The Allman Brothers were a brilliant band! I never get tired of listening to their music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Several years ago, the Nordstroms in Redondo Beach CA had someone playing a grand piano on the first floor -- added a bit class, I suppose. I went there one day and the pianist was playing Jessica -- switching the lead guitar riffs, and the piano solo and the bass -- all on the grand piano! It was the most wonderful musical moment I had ever seen! Brilliant! When he finished, I was the only one to applaud him. Everyone else was busy browsing for shirts and earrings and shoes.... idiots.
Yes, people aren't aware of went into that piece of music. Same thing for me up in the Colo mountains. Blessing for those who catch such rarity really!
If you get a chance check out the Allman's Bros playing Blue Sky at SUNY Sunnybrook 1971. DIckey and Duane play with more emotion in thay version than seems humanly possible. It's on RUclips, cheers
Saw this live on ABC In Concert, November '72. Moved from Long Island to New Orleans in '73, and played the hairy hits. Found the station's copy of the broadcast tape to be played simultaneously with ABC TV, and made a cassette copy, which I still have. Talk about Knock Me Out...This, with Whipping Post and One Way Out...Holy jeez, guys, YOU WERE THE TOP!!❤😊😊
I could just sit here and listen to that on repeat for the rest of the day and never get tired of it. Dickey and Greg could pull off that rockstar look to a tee. RIP Dickey, among guitar players, we knew that you were the greatest.
unqualifiably beautiful. stunning. back when musicians were the real thing. i noticed the crowd keeping time with the music. everyone had a great time, i think.
Dicky Betts is one of the greatest of all times. I saw them four times , including at Watkins Glen. Best live band ever. A recording pales by comparison. They play as one. Unbelievable timing. Wonderful memories.
Damn. Who was here and had you heard this song before? I’ve been listening to Allman Brothers forever. It’s only been later in life that one can *fully* appreciate the talent here. Insane.
All have their opinions. There are many great guitar instrumentals out there, and I will give them their due, but this is something else. Takes you on a hot ride and brings you home, like nothing else. The piano segment is most important to this , also. Kudos to the bassist, too.
I've gotta say that I completely agree. It's not my favorite song, it isn't even my favorite instrumental. To be fair, is actually "pretty far" from being "the best" classic rock piece ever. BUT. BUT. BUT. It most definitely is something else. This piece really is in a league of its own.
It don't get any better than this. Real musician playing their heart and soul out. This was and will always be the best jam band of all time. Duane Allman was a genuine musucal genius, 2 drums, 2 guitars, keyboards, bass guitar
And then the soulfull voice of Greg Allman and the country voice of Dickey. Great song writers, great musicians. Made all the other greats at the time stand up a listen, Clapton, Page, Beck, Hendrix, Terry Kath who tends to get over looked by most( Chicago fame ) was Inspired by Duane Allman. What we lost when the 3 great guitar players Allman, Hendrix and Kath died at such young ages. But what was left by these 3 greats will always be recaptured everytime someone hears them for the first time. Betts will be there some day. Saw him couple years back he still has the groove.
It's clear that he was the fan favorite in the band at this point. Just listen to the crowd when he starts and finishes that solo...he was a bona fide guitar hero
I bought this record, (the album "Brothers and Sisters"), with some money my Dad gave me for my 17th Birthday when it came out. He knew I'd pick my own present better than a parent and I rushed down to the record shop in Dublin. A mere 49 years ago! First time I've seen it live ... amazing, but a pity Duane wasn't alive then. That would have been something. I didn't realise that Jessica was Dickey Betts' young daughter until I read this. That must be her photo ... aged about six ... on the cover of the LP ... which I still have, of course. Some years later, the BBC picked this song as the title music for their motor enthusiasts show "Top Gear", which lives on in 2022 ... as does Jessica!
The best live performance... in the world... Some say each of them has three equally long legs... and they are allergic to air... All we know is, they are the Allman Brothers... Sometimes their live music, is almost frightening...
The first time I saw the boys was at Red Rocks with a couple of buddies back in the late 80s. We dropped some cid and I tell ya we took off. The original Allmans were AMAZING!!
RIP Dickey Betts 😢, allein durch diesen Song und sein Gitarrenspiel schon unsterblich. Zusammen mit dem bereits 1971 verstorbenen Duane Allman das beste Gitarrenduo in einer Band überhaupt. Nebenbei hat die Band auch den Southern Rock erfunden.
Das sehe ich genauso. Einer der besten aus meiner Sicht ist nun gestorben, wurde aber 80 Jahre alt. Da weiß ich noch nicht, ob mir das gelingt. Wir haben aber eines gemeinsam: Ich trage meine Gibson auch eher etwas höher, also Gurt kürzer... Jetzt müsste man noch so spielen können 😉😆🙃
I watch this in wonder. 2 drummers, a congo player, 2 bitchen guitars, great bass player, organ and piano. It's the freaking Allman Brothers! Everyone in the crowd is grooving, but I'm not sure how many realized what a special and amazing concert this was!
Was in the car listening to Allman Bros on the CD player. Came home and dialed them up on you tube and just stumbled on to this and realized I was at that show. I was at UF from 1980 to 84 and saw them at the band shell. WOW!!!

What??? I had no idea he was sick. Oh, man. That's a blow. What a legend.
@@incarnateTheGreat What a legend - YES!
He reminds me of Jerry Garcia..happy clean sound !
Richard Dickey Betts the most criminally underrated blues rock guitarist. He melted that whole crowds faces with that solo.
No, Ray. He's simply the most melodic guitarist. Notice he's using two fingers of his left hand, in homage to Django Reinhardt.
Just remember it's a dual guitar play
Can't remember the other dude

Right here with you, brother. Hope you made it ok.
I'm 74 and have grown up with the best music there could be and Allman Brothers was always my favorite

Dickey and everybody ever in that great band set the bar high. TY Mr Betts for sharing your gift. One of the best ever. Godspeed.

Top (Gear) comment. Deserves a thumbs up
