    I cry every time I watch it. I cry with sadness that he left us...and of happiness for having lived at the same time as Gregg Allman and being able to be a fan of his music! Thanks for everything, Brother Gregg!

      Sometimes you look around and realize life has caught up with you. I see it in Greg’s face. Always had a soft spot for him. Miss him and the band very much.

      71 for me too. A friend in summer camp turned me onto the band. Idlewild South that summer. I'd been playing bass for a year and my focus turned to Berry Oakley and learning the songs. I have an Allman Brothers tribute band, Idlewild West, here in the Bay Area.

      Hey Randy, when my father was sick and diagnosed with “Cancer” in 2016 I stumbled across “The Allman Brothers “ on the radio ….he died of Cancer in 2017. I have been listening to the Allman Brothers Band almost everyday! Gregg’s solo stuff especially “Laid Back” just connected with me. I have watched the “Dan Rather” interview with Gregg at least 50 times….when he got older and spoke about all his stories it just did something to
      My soul that I can relate and just block and lock this aweful smelling world out, and just find comfort in his music!
      God Bless Gregg!
      I have watched “Dickey Betts” interview with Dan quite a bit as well! Dickey is my 2nd most favorite member.
      My Uncles served in Vietnam and just like you…I am so grateful and proud of y’all! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    I don't know why, but "the older version of Gregg" makes me sad in a good way. His music steered/inspired me through the angst of a 70's teen, and still gets me through the rough patches of middle age. Thanks, Gregg.

    My God, has there really been any other singer who can bare his soul and pour it out with so much unbelievable passion and conviction than Brother Gregory Allman!
    To say he was graced with talent, to help him keep his demons at bay, is a grand understatement. The strength and power of this man's lyrical emotion travels beyond magnificent.
    This diamond, and Melissa, are his crowning achievements. So overwhelming sad when the news of his passing aired. This void can never be filled. For the love of all that is holy,
    this authentic legend will remain timeless because we have his music that he gave and left us with to enjoy, grieve and feel life. He rests forever with his beloved Brother Duane.
    God Bless The ABB

    The older Gregg is so mellow, and yes it makes one feel a certain amount of saddnest when you think about the young Gregg. I don't know but I get the feeling he was always very sweet and kind, but just dealing with a lot of inner demons. Especially after his brother died. I just love him so much. It brings tears to my eyes knowing how badly he just wanted to be loved. I will miss the man and his music.

      I think he realized the loss and hurt ,and used that motivation channeled through his music taking his bro for the ride with him. When idle, and not playing the demon came knocking to numb the pain glad he got to experience the last of his life clear minded ,and at peace .Rip brothers all beginning a new chapter together.

    I truly miss Gregg, that song is beautiful, and beautifully sung. I first heard “oncoming traffic” in my mid teens, and it’s just as meaningful now as it was then, thanks for all the lovely memories brother, and thank goodness for You Tube.

    Grew up with both of these people as icons. It’s such a beautiful song. What I love about this performance is seeing children and dogs playing all around them. What he’s pining for in song is there. He made it.

    This was filmed back on November 2, 2015... he was 67...and turned 68 on Dec 8, 2015... then a year later on 12/8/ 2016 would turn 69... then after New Years 2017... He knew that his health was declining... he already had a liver transplant a few years back, .and had Hep.C.. and was on Drs. medications... and had finished a book "My Cross to Bear" and did one last album "Southern Blood"....and was doing interviews... he knew his time was short... He ended up living with his last girlfriend of 5 years and married her in Feb. 2017....Shannon Williams 29 from Atlanta, Georgia she was the social media manager of Gregg Allman and Friends production co. He was 69. ..He would have turned 70... on 12/8/2017 if he had lived longer... He was very strong at the end and was tying up loose ends before he succumbed to the cancer in his second liver... He knew he was dying... but kept a good attitude at the end...

    The best interview ever (Kudo's to Dan's sensitivity) of this sweet soul..yes he had issues with deep grief that leads to self destruction but he's s talented and real. His singing of the blues goes straight to my heart.
