"That band was at one time the best that America had to offer" .. So true
The Band
Yes and Lynyrd Skynyrd
And they're still the Best! .and I'm a Stones girl ....
Amen
Duane and Dickey - both such world-class players and creative geniuses. Both had guitar playing styles uniquely their own, and neither can be replicated.
I agree. It was just the Greg Allman band after they were gone
...I WROTE a reply, but it's YOUR loss, not mine...
Sadly, Dickey has just joined Duane in rock 'n roll heaven. May they both trade leads in peace!
Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks reached the high standard that Duane set. I miss seeing those two playing together on a regular basis.
Caught 13 shows with those guys. Great, great times.
I grew up listening to these guys, and will still be listening until my last day. Amazing band, the one and only ❤
I grew up in Florida. I remember seeing them in a bar in Pensacola in 1968..I’ve followed them for over 50 yrs now. I’ve had a good music career starting in 1970 and now own my on studio. I do believe that the double LP at Filmore is the best album ever recorded! Thanks to Warren and Derek that keeps this music going today!. We have a cover band out of here in Nashville that plays all the early Filmore songs and they are very good. As a lifelong musician The music has gone to shit.. the disco, all synth, bubble gum music and mostly all electronic crap that’s taken over the airwaves, I wish we were back in 1968…….. a great film about ABB!❤️❤️
Gregg lived behind me in Richmond Hill,GA. We used to see him riding his bike and driving his corvette around. Got to get a signed photo by him which I treasure. Nice guy but kept to himself when he was home. Loved seeing him out and about driving.
So glad my life begin with my dad playing Allman Brothers at filmore east album all the time. Huge influence on me as a guitarist who can’t shake my allman Brother style of songwriter and performing
Can never forget who you are. Who you are there you are. Be yourself always
I guess I was a LITTLE late to the Allmans.
I grew up in the 70's, but my bands were The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and The Who.
I discovered the Allman Brothers when Gregg made his comeback in the 80's with "I'm No Angel."
At the same time, I was now into Stevie Ray Vaughan and Clapton had just released "Journeyman."
So, I was basically listening to The Allmans, Stevie and Eric.
I've been listening to that genre ever since.
Just gotta have that soulful spirit sound to get me off.
Nothing like Duane and Dickey's sweet, beautiful sound with Gregg's powerful voice layered on top.
Then they pushed me into The Tedeschi Trucks band.
Best damn band in the business today.
Then they got me into Doyle Bramhall II. Doyle's got one of the best voices ever. Not to mention his great guitar work.
My buddy was a roadie for them in the 1990s so I got to go backstage and hang out with them a few times. DIckey was basically unapproachable at the time but the rest of them were cool. Thing is, Dickey is the one I idolize the most. I play PRS cause DIckey started playing them in the 1990s...
Dicky was probably a bit preoccupied with child support payments. I think he’s on marriage #6 now.
Despite the low opinion expressed in the documentary, Win Lose or Draw, in my opinion is one of their best. I love every track of that album.
Takes me back to my biker days! Long live Harleys and the Allman brothers!
Such an excellent portrayal of one of the greatest bands to come out of the 70s. Great job and thank you!
Very well done and thorough exploration of the parts of the ABB story that rarely have been talked about. I’m glad I found this.
David Gilmore and Duane Allman are the best slide guitar. I've been greatly blessed just to hear both of them. My lord the best music ever played. RIP GREG*DUANE Togather again
I've seen Allman Bros live, astonishing how different their live sound is, they can sort of be labeled a jam band, but they're much , much more , as the man said, they could play & hang with anyone musically...
I was shocked how many Dead Heads + hippie type folks were in attendance, anf actually following them around (Jerry Garcia has recently passed) but ALSO Blue Grass aficionados, Blues enthusiasts,
Etc., such a diverse crowd....
But of course, you had to factor in that a little band called Lynyrd Skynyrd had preceded the Allmans performance with one of their own, +(yep!) What a show!!
Thank you so much for this excellent history. I was a teenager from the early cream days and so much came back to me. This was a wonderful experience! Thanks so much.
A very well done video about a group of people who deserve every accolade they have received. I'm 65 and I will go to my grave wondering what could have been if Duane had not got on that bike that day.
I was the flower girl in the early 70s ... I swear my baby sitter Kathy married Greg Allman, and I've never been told otherwise! lol
Best American band to exist and you can’t convince me otherwise
Miss these guys.
Very impressive;, very well done, moving ending; t/y for it.
Signed,
A half century Allman Brothers Band fan. Bravo.
This was fantastic. The Allman Bros are a legacy and great unique music. Loved then for decades.
Beautiful documentary I enjoyed it so much, thank you!!
I still miss Duane ALLMAN! 🍑🍄❤️🎶
My all time super deluxe go to band!!! GBNF Duane, Gregg, Berry, Woody, Butch and Dan.
How sad, I really feel for his family and friends, fans and bikers. I've been lucky so far on my bikes but I totally understand how he would love riding bikes as it's addictive.
it’s aSad story that demonstrates the power of illegal drugs on how they can destroy the American Dream i’m nearly 60 years old and they will always remain of of my favorite bands of all times i agree that Dickey did a fabulous job of keeping the band going without Duane yet IMO Duane Allman was the true magic of the band
An amazing documentary
Great documentary. Love ABB.
la mejor banda de la historia
For whatever reason that I can't really understand, I guess, because I don't know them personally, because I think Gregg didn't have the self-esteem that I think he really should have.
When Duane first approached Gregg about singing lead, he didn't think he could pull it off.
Pull it off?! Now, damn man, Gregg is arguably the greatest blue-eyed soul-blues singer EVER.
I mean, yeah, Paul Rodgers is 'The Voice', but they're really different styles.
Paul is more straight ahead rock and roll. Gregg is perfectly suited for the Allmans and their swampier, blues, tinged soul sound.
Well, Gregg, he should have been the leader. The spiritual leader. But, folks that know him well, I guess they think he just didn't have the personality or leadership qualities.
I think Gregg was better and more talented than he gave himself credit for.
I mean, the dude sang and wrote most of their songs.
'Melissa' is one of the most gorgeous songs ever put on wax man.
And Dickey's playing behind it, I mean, you could almost cry at how pretty it is.
Yeah, I think these guys were better than they gave themselves credit for.
Fantastic presentation. Perfectly done.
I would see them in live oak Florida for almond fest with the Doobies Three day jam fest.most epic time! Derek trucks blew it up! Hell they all blew it up! What a blessing
duane, they broke the mold with him so to speak
Duane called the band Elightened Rogues.
Amazing and srv did make blues cool again but rory Gallagher too
Absolutely. ABB and SRV is my two all time fav.
My wife's name is Melissa, so yeah.
@@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery I named my daughter Jessica.
@@lesterpaul9657 I see a theme here lol. Oh man when I hear the song Melissa, I'm transported to the piano and on stage with them guysz their live performances of any song let alone all the ones I love, have such a transformative effect on me, I feel like I've been soul touched by their music 🎶 and although I've got alot figured out in this life I haven't quite figured out why God has shown me such a deep connection with thus music. I'm gonna listen to it till I die and if possible, I'll be listening to it while I die. God forbid on my Harley, or please God let me be on my Harley when I die, idk, ABB hands down the best rock and roll band, by far the best live, behind of course are these bands, led zeppelin, rush, etc etc
@@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery When I was around 13-14 the only US bands I ' ve listen to was CCR and ABB.
I was more into british rock and bluesrock bands and a bit later on I discovered the so called progressive rock bands like Yes, Gentle Giant, Genesis, Caravan etc.
I guess we could be lucky to have grown up with all this great music.
I watched the ESC on saturday because my wife likes to see it and I had to ask myself for god sake what happened to music.
That was ridiculous, annoying and soulless.
Never again😁
@@lesterpaul9657 I just turned 40. Thnx for sharing this story with me mate
ladies and gentlemen, Mr. RICHARD Betts
Great job on this documentary !!
My Dad played with these guys..
Allman bros ,along with a few other bands ,basically started the jam band movement...the showes around the time of the horde tour were awesome...summer of 01 was super fun
I've followed them from the beginning and love the Fillmore days. But it was Dickie who brought them the commercial success with Brothers and Sisters and made them rich - before the disco scene crashed this style of music. Warren and Derek brought back the fillmore sound and the band survived another 20 years playing fillmore tunes. The big disappointment for me , was them not having Dickey at that final show. Sure, his playing days were over , but to not show respect to founding member Dickey Betts , was shameful.
Great stuff thanks
I keep hearing this same refrain when speaking of the 1980s that "guitar heroes" were dead, and the almighty synthesizer took over---there were a few exceptions like 38 Special and REO Speedwagon--who didn't entirely compromise their sound and sell out to synth--but "guitar heroes" were not dead. they just became exclusive to the "heavy metal" realm. It was okay in the 80s to be a guitar hero--as long as you were playing "heavy metal"
Gregg couldn't carry it, BO was barely living. Betts was about the music. He took charge but leading an enterprise as difficult to manage as the biggest rock and roll band on earth? Only a few can do that. But Betts proved a lot and gave the band a second life.
Can you imagine what Jessica would’ve sounded like with Duane?? Man,what could’ve been…😢
Do you miss something in the song?
I love Duane but I don' t think he would play a better solo than Les Dudek did.
And on stage Betts and Dan Toler was a great combination.
Not a big Warren Haynes fan.
@@lesterpaul9657 I don’t think Les Dudek didn’t play a solo on Jessica,he played acoustic on it I believe
Duane would have taken it to the next level, and he would've done the same with "Les Brers In A Minor."
I just want to say---some of my favorite singers have also been fine organists: Gary Brooker from Procol Harum, Mark Stein from Vanilla Fudge, Steve Winwood from Spencer Davis/Traffic, Gregg Rolie from Santana--and another Gregg--Gregg Allman., who indeed---is the best white blues singer of all
I dunno who’s “best” but SRV comes to mind immediately. I’ve see them both in concert and IMO, it’d be a photo finish!
@@tundrawomansays694 Funny thing about SRV is that, like Eric Clapton, he never discovered he had a good blues voice until he was forced to become a singer. Most guitar players, I found, are like that
Great to hear but exstensive❤😊
Mentioning everyone that contributed to the band but leaving out Oteil is crazy.
Thank God i played for leon Russell instead of these ppl in the southern tours, because they make it like a cut yer bro event, when in reality, even studio musicians like me were appreciated and had long leashes, especially if the names loved you
The only thing equal to their genius is the other jam band hailing from the west coast, The Grateful Dead. And they shared the stage a few times in some very legendary shows. RFK 73, Watkins Glen, Fillmore East.
1:26:12 "if played a guitar solo you were not cool"????? What? Sorry I don't care who you are, Eddie Van Halen was kickin it! The Scorpions were kickin it! Iron Maiden was kickin it! Dokken was kickin it! Rat was Kickin it! Qzzy was Kickin it! Quiet Riot was Kickin it! 80's was nothin but guitar! Don't forget Stevie Ray Vaughn and Mark Knopfler. They were all cool. What are you talking about?????
I had no idea Stanley Tucci worked at Gibson.
Had Duane lived, one has to wonder whether Dickey wouldn't have done a country-inspired solo album as a side project, such that Bothers and Sisters would not have been done as an Allman project.
✌️😊♥️
No mention of Oteil?
I found that strange. The lineup with O'teil, Haynes ,Trucks was brilliant.
Great documentary, but they all seem to forget that in the 80's there was PLENTY of guitar music. It wasn't what the Brothers did, but to act like there were no "cool" guitar players in the 1980's seems to completely forget the entirety of LA scene and hard rock and metal guitar players of the day. Tons of the people that guitar players call guitar heroes came to prominence during the time everyone in this documentary seems to think didn't exist. I love what the Brothers did more than any of that stuff, but come on, the 80's were mostly about guitar.
Lynyrd Skynyrd was the best live band for me these cats was a close second
Both from Florida! Florida Rules!
I am inclined to agree ❤
"" The Second Coming ""
Was Original name before ABB...
Minute 43 comment Roadies maybe baggage handlers but they are dire for the band all the work they do especially for a jam band as large as the
ABB, makes life less stressful for the musicians.
When warren James come in?
Betcha Z.Z.Top listens to Allman Brothers Band.
Greg with a cold sounds like Joe Walsh . Great for a raw Joe Walsh Rocker but not Allman brothers track
They were not the standard bearers for Southern Rock. They hated the term Southern Rock. Gregg said that "Rock n Roll came form the South. Saying Southern Rock is as dumb as saying Rock Rock."
who cares what critics think about anything
i have a guitar pic of theirs
As great as this band is I've always liked skinnard better when I listen to the 2 of them in my mind they totally different musically they really sound nothing alike I don't know why people compare the 2
How dare they fire dicky after danune died he was holding the allman brothers band together that's how you repay him what scam bags whoever fired him I want the name
@bretthumphrey6821 That is not how it happened. Duane died in 1971. Dickey Betts wasn't fired until the year of 2000!!! Get your facts straight dude. 👍🏼
Dude, what did you do with your eyebrows, looks so punkish
They were incredible back then. Now they are not. They've become a bad cover band of themselves. Sorry
Major drugs.
You do the crime you do the time.... he should have not testified against his friend like that.
The Allman Brothers Band did NOT consider themselves “Southern Rock.” In fact, they disliked being labeled as that. Skynyrd, .38 Special, Molly Hatchet, Charlie Daniels Band, The Outlaws … those were “Southern Rock Bands.” The ABB was too diverse to be labeled as anything but what they were: The Allman Brothers Band.
Well said👍
Yes, absolute agreed.
I never called the ABB a southern rock band because I don' t like all these f..... Dixie redneck bands supported this bloody racist George Wallace.
Agreed. In a class all by themselves
Some of the others you mentioned didn't like the label "southern rock", either. Lynyrd Skynyrd just thought of themselves as a more "authentic" version of blues-based British rock because they were from the roots of what the Stones, Ten Years After, Fleetwood Mac, etc were imitating , and Molly Hatchet thought of themselves as competing with Judas Priest on a "Metal" level
@@impalaman9707 Maybe Skynyrd thought that, but they were wrong. They basically created the genre known as Southern Rock, and many followed. I’m not knocking them; I’m just sayin’. Putting them in any other bag would be folly.
I've only just found within the last year the Allman Brothers Band. My mind has subsequently been blown and pleased. These guys were masters of their artistry.
That’s wonderful. I’m 43 years old, and my earliest musical memories involve The Allman Brothers. I was literally raised on them. I have ex-girlfriends (plural) that have told me “the thing I remember most about you is listening to ‘Blue Sky’ and smoking a joint on a sunny afternoon…”. I actually consider that a point of pride, even though I no longer partake in any mind-altering substances. They just don’t make music like this anymore!
I live in Statesboro Ga. I know you know the song Staesboro blues. It was written and performed by a blues musician from statesboro. His name was blind willie mctell. The Allmans covered it. Great band. We play allmans all the time . Great to know one of the best bands in the world lived close.
@@abick8725 I'm 40. Thnx for sharing this
@@stargazer4625 awesome!!!! Thnx SG
It's a deep rabbit hole! Enjoy the the journey.
Ain’t nobody better than the Allman Brothers.
Ever hear of johnny winter?
@@nakim55 yep. Great guitarist. Saw him live. Ain’t nobody better than the Allman Brothers.
Gov't Mule, has that Jam/Live play anything. All from the Grateful Dead, with the live jamming.
theres is no best, only your favorite.
@@nakim55 the guitarist they usurped the headline from at filmore east? 😉
I grew up with this music, when Duane Croaked from his motorcycle accident I was a Teenager.
Greg grabbed the torch and came into his own as his other band mates did as well.
Duane was a true genius.
*Gregg and Berry
Dickey grabbed it more so
I am sure Duane wanted the group to go on without him.
There always was the Allman brothers but with Dickey Betts there was The Allman Brothers Band. Upon his death Duane became the best slide guitarist ever and still is on the that list but that is death for you. Similar to suddenly Robbie Robertson is suddenly alive while The Band existed without him and sang songs Robbie claimed he wrote but I don't believe it for a minute. Robbie never toured solo with an acoustic like all singer/songwriters do. His acting as though he were the conductor with a baton during the Last Waltz and accusing the others of being dead-end junkies that he cured is pure BS. I knew Rick Danko and he could play circles around Robbie and was not a junkie.
I was 11
Dickey Betts is one of the most innovative and melodic guitarists ever . During Duane Allman time , Betts was the perfect foil and after Duane’s demise , he stepped up his act and came up with classic compositions like Blue sky, Rambling man and Jessica . He was a good singer and brought a country rock touch which added variety to the band sound in addition to the blues / soul of Gregg Allman. Chuck Lavel was phenomenal on keyboards
Absolutely one of my favorite bands.
Mine Toooo
Everytime I ride my Harley I think of Duane..and sometimes I Eat A Peach 🍑 ride on Rock on brothers. Life goes by like falling rain.
One of the best bands to ever grace our world.
Tears, brother all I got. PURE&SALTY IN TEXAS
In 1969, in St Petersburg, FL, my Band "Skunk Junction" opened for the Allman Bros. Band. We sat backstage before the show and passed around a couple of joints and shared road stories. That night was inspirational for me beyond anything before or since. They were SO good and SO tight, and SO seriously INTO what they were doing, that I took my own Music much more seriously from that night on. When Duane died, I felt like I had lost a personal friend. Then again, when Berry died. I KNEW that they would continue. That was not just what they did, it was WHO they WERE. I still feel a personal loss over Gregg and Butch.
A bond was formed that night that has never disappeared. I wish Dicky and Jaimoe all the best.
Respect to your comment. I saw them in 90 the first time when I was 20. Don't have words for the impact. They became the gold standard after that. You're So right !! ......So into what they were doing....
@@turkeeg7644 Yes, and that intensity still inspires my playing to this day. If you are interested, here is one of my songs on which I'm playing every instrument, recorded in '07. ruclips.net/video/yj15dgNGHgA/видео.html
I met Duane, Greg and the rest of the band on a gig I did with them on the same bill with Chuck Berry who I played drums for in May of 1971 in Chapel Hill NC. I still hold the Allman Brothers in the highest regard and listen to their music these many years later having seen them play many gigs live with Duane back in the day.
@@scottmoyer1357 Cool. As much as I listen to them now, which is still a LOT, there is nothing like the energy of their live shows.
As do I...and I'm 73 years YOUNG ! !
...that's all...
Im 63 years old and been playing guitar since 1972.At 12 years old I played my guitar listening to the Allman brothers band everyday after school, trying to learn there songs.They was my favorite band. ever, and my favorite band now at 63. I learned a lot of there songs and guitar riffs and solos.But I am still learning. I've spent most of my life studying and practicing the Allman brothers music and still dont have everything right, maybe I wasnt cut out to be a guitar player, but its been a lot of fun trying. Long live the Greatest band ever. There music will never be forgotten or die.
👍🎸😎
My favorite American Band also
Fact. Im same. I still not mastered them all. 🎸 🎸 🍄
I applaud you, and am jealous at the same time….
I bet you sound better than you give yourself credit.. Duane Allman and the great Dickey Betts will always be known as 2 of the best guitar player in the world.. Alan Collins one of the original guitar players of Lynyrd Skynyrd was one bad dude as well..alot of people may not know that but he could play his ass off..i bet you sound pretty good yourself..
Rest easy Dickey! The road goes on forever.........
Dickey Betts is somehow extremely underrated
What?
Are you out of your mind?
Nobody who knows Betts underrated him.
I once saw him with Great Southern and the crowd went crazy.
Also must read the underrated nonsense referring to Pau Kossoff.
All the great guitar players appreciated Koss.
Allman Brothers Band are close to an orchestra, they are all so talented and tight it's mind boggling when you realize Duane is playing this and Dickey's playing something else and it sounds so great
Una de las mejores bandas de rock de todos los tiempos. Muchas Gracias por este homenaja a The Allman Brothers Band.
u said it brother
Until today the Allman Brothers Band are still my favorite band of all times. I'm a music fan since ages and have seen and heard many gems throughout my time but no one can keep up with the ABB
ABB was about the music. That's why we're still into them.
Sorry kids, but there is no Allman Brothers Band without Dickey Betts.
Seen them in concert only 9 times. Not nearly enough!!
Never enough…
I recall exactly what intersection I was at when I heard about his death on the radio. I can’t recall what car I was driving but exactly where I was. The ‘Live’ album I was the first Allman Bros album I bought
I grew up also with the Allmans , they had a great affect on my growing up. Their music just went straight to my soul, I even moved to Daytona Beach in the 70s , there I was living by the beach, listening to Gregg and seeing him around town now and then. Still sentimental when I listen to them, that was some great music, and still is.
Duane Allman played on Layla by Eric Clapton
Duwane had a gift for music that’s what’s special he picked each member to put it together
At 16 i heard Fillmore for the very first time. As a beginning guitarist i now knew that tone and phrasing were something to perfect
the allmans bros story is one of survival and perseverance. few bands have a story like theirs.
Tell that to Scooter.
@@MaTTheWish they lived past the addiction and litigation is my point
@@ustheserfs good point..
I seem to be at odds with most people when in comes to Win Lose Or Draw. I happen to think it`s a great album. One mentioned High Falls in this documentary as a high point of the album, and I agree. But I seem to be alone in thinking that Just Another Love Song, and Louisiana Lou And Three Card Monty John are great songs. In my opinion they are the two most underrated songs in the history of the Allman Brothers.
I think O’teil Burbridge deserved at least an honorable mention here …I mean,he did play bass with them for 12 years and is arguably one of the best musicians on planet earth?
I would include " Day's of Future Past" by the Moody Blues released in 1967 as an early rock concept album. Thanks for your high quality videos
Greg and Stevie Ray would have made some good records together just singing and playing the Blues. The sound of Greg's voice and Stevie's guitar sound would have been killer.
They played on the same Shows in 87' so I'm sure Stevie & Gregg would've Jammed. Stevie saw ABB with Duane in 71' 2 weeks later Duane had the accident 😳
I would call them a rock band. There were so many great ones in the 70s
