Best Allman Brothers' record... "Eat a Peach".

At least Derek, Duane, and Vaylor are chips off the old block.

Very sad news. The tremendous percussion of ABB's music has been too often overlooked.

Goodbye Butch

Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain

The week before, they all seemed the same

With the help of God and true friends, I've come to realize

I still have two strong legs, and even wings to fly

So I, ain't a-wastin time no more

'Cause time goes by like hurricanes,

and faster things

"Brothers & Sisters" was an early purchase for me.

"'I've a hunger for dreams I'll never see" my favorite rock bottom line "guarranteed to bring you right down" and "Dreams" is my favorite ABB tune. Percussion is very prominent, too.

I've got quite a bit of ABB in my playlist The haunting sound of Dreams is one of my favorites...

Little Martha always puts a smile on my face too. (the song)

I love the Tedeschi -Trucks band. They performed at Jazz and Heritage last year and nailed it. Derek is good.

Allman Bros. are one of my favorite all time bands. Hard to pick just one song. They have so many. Iw ill say my favorite album is At Filmore East.

Live at the Beacon 3-20-2009 find it on the ABB website. 3rd set with Eric Clapton, but also a moving "Melissa".

Ruled a suicide. Shot himself in the head in front of his wife.

So sad and disappointing.
