they sound like what we today call "progressive", and they were. New mix of different genre's and the members were ALL superb, just a perfect storm of talent. They always gave credit to who they learned from , were influenced by, etc. They grew up listening to old school Blues, R & B, Jazz, rock, country, etc. They sought it out - on record, inconcert, in person, etc. They are YOUNG here (I think Gregg was 20/21), and so talented cause they all started early with the music they loved.
@@anthonyantanaitis1720 I had a connection to the ABB, appreciate them so much. I think even more now when I think on how much better they are than 80% of what's considered good these days. And, I do like some music today. It had to be true talent then - no flash, no auto tune, etc. They are the real deal. I'm enjoying Gregg's autobiography as well.
"Live At The Fillmore East" is easily one of the best live albums ever. "One Way Out" is a true masterwork of Southern Blues-Rock. The way Duane and Dickie trade licks is phenomenal---unparalleled.
Without question. I left my parents home for good and drove across the country for two months in 1995. I spent 60 days with this album, Eat a Peach and Greatest Hits. When GA died 3 yrs ago, it was the first time I was personally crushed by a musicians’ passing. Not a live performance anywhere that equals it.
Right On Brother ! When I saw them, we were shocked that they were as tight as James Brown's band , and that skinny white boy sounded like an elder black singer.
The video, and audio were different. Just mashed together, to try their (the TH-cam editor) best, to make it look good. The Greg parts (vocals) were easier to edit. The editor had *no* idea when it came to Duane’s guitar. It was a different song, in some parts.
When the late, great Albert King sat in with them, he did a double take when Gregg started singing. He couldn’t believe that a voice with that much soul was coming out of a young , skinny , blonde white boy.
Stoney j I’m sure you’ve checked out some Albert King stuff, but in case you haven’t check this out. I love at the end when Mr. King says he done played his guitar out of tune! th-cam.com/video/-ZL2b4O3nz8/w-d-xo.html
This is the stuff we grew up on in the 70s. We knew it was great but we had no idea that it was going to be revisited by future generations and given the attention it deserves as some of the greatest music ever made.
Another vote for Midnight Rider & then all the rest 😉 You can't lose with The Allman Brothers.... especially live ! Oh yah.... he did do Midnight Rider thank you.... & I think he did Soulshine ? Then Melissa will definitely do ! !
I think it's from the performance, they just mixed the poor quality video with the recording of the songs they made for the album. Even whipping post was off.
Guys, I love Stormy Monday, but how can you choose. Elizabeth Reed is fantastic, Mountain Jam is surprising and creative, Whipping Post is, well Whippong Post.
the twin guitars and the twin drums, and a great bass player and Greg Allmans seriously fabulous voice, and his great b3 playing........truly phenominal, in the clouds
One of the best bands ever!! If you ever need a pick me up, listen to "Blue Sky", not many songs lift my spirits like that one. I've never known a song to make you feel like you are on a nice walk on a sunny day and it is not cheesy lol.
My son, now 17 and who just graduated high-school would not got to sleep at age 3 unless we got to "sway" to Blue Sky. It still touches me how close music made us. I would hold him, sway with his little blonde head on my shoulder till he dozed off in the solo. That little sucker is 6'2" -200 pounds now! Love that boy and that tune!
Mrs. Ward here. Man did I love these guys. My name is Melissa, so of course, as a young teen, every one named Melissa thought Gregg Allman was singing toyou. They just popped right into your soul, and stayed. One of the very best. Miss them a lot. Thank you for your reactions. Mrs. Melissa Ward.
If you’ll be my Dixie Chicken, I’ll be Your Tennessee Lamb!!! Saw Feat and Bonnie Raitt in Chapel Hill at Carmichael Auditorium (Pre-Dean Smith Center aka: The Dean Dome) in the late ‘70’s. Lowell George and Little Feat were GIANTS on the East Coast! Phenomenal Concert!!! ~ Time Loves A Hero❤️
Dude.. that's amazing old footage! There's not allot left out there with Duane, performing live, other than these Filmore clips..... Awesome brother!!! Awesome
Watch a documentary called Muscle Shoals. One of the best documentaries I have ever seen regarding where the music came from! I thought I knew a lot, I didn't. And that slide guitar player, Duane Allman was a big part of that.
Funny that you say that, I'm pretty certain that they lose a beat and a half or so coming back in from the drum break/gtr solo on this recording (sounds like Berry jumps the gun?), but they're so fast to recover and play through that you'd barely even notice without counting the whole time. That's really what shows me a band is tight as hell, when they miss a beat but no one notices because they cover it so well.
I’m jealous that reactors like yourself are able to discover and enjoy the music that our generation grew up on and took for granted! Love what you do keep up the good work!!!
This version was not on Live At Fillmore,the one you refer to They used this version from the night they closed down the iconic Fillmore, and. They played about 6 hours! This was used on the also great Eat A Peach..
The Allman Brother's Band was the baddest, best, band on this earth. Always kicking a$s, always bringing the house down with their music. Now? They've relocated to Heaven.
When Duane was alive I saw them 3x, once after. At that time there was no live band that could touch them...and I was at this concert. "Statesboro Blues" and "Don't Keep Me Wonderin' " (the live versions) should be next. RIP Duane, Greg, Butch, and Berry. Dickie Betts and Jamoe, may you live forever.
I saw them in College, when they just dropped their first album. They blew everyone away !!! After hearing them, I fell in love with the Band, and the South, and moved to Georgia forthwith. The Brothers Forever ❣️
My dad was in the Air Force in the mid 70s working at the base hospital. I don’t recall if it was a guy he knew from his side job at a local hospital or a civilian working at the hospital on base, but either way, the dude was Jaimoe’s cousin. He got my dad and a couple friends into the concert and they watched them perform from behind the stage. Unfortunately it was after Duane and Barry died, but still... I can’t imagine how awesome that must have been.
Reminds me of the old Benny Hill thing, where the guy is out on the ledge in his drawers, the woman greeting her husband early coming home ... ... he looks, and next to him there's a skeleton on the ledge in its drawers... 😂😂😂.
JAMAL!!!! I love you man, I really do. If I ever meet you I’m gonna buy you a beer...BUT...please stop reminding us old people how old we are. It makes my arthritis flare up. LOL 😂 Much love and respect brother, I really look forward to your videos. Keep em comin!
as a wise person once said, having Dickie Betts and Duane Allman in the same band just isn't playing fair...lol. something you MUST check out. it's a really old tune, called "Loan Me A Dime" and the version you need to check out is on here...it's Boz Scaggs and Duane Allman. it will change your life.
That music was indeed live at the Filmore East. However, the Allman Brothers did a number of shows and visual scenes may have been picked from various performances.
So, the lead guitarist,"Duane Allman" collaborated with Eric Clapton to create the greatest Love song ever written. "Layla" is a song that will make you listen. Clapton will give you permanent "Stank" face...
Brother, I'm a 60-year-old man from the south. I've heard these songs for most of my life. I want you to know, listening to them through a new set of years has made me realize just how great this music is. Sincerely enjoy the way you react while the song is being played. I hear it in a whole new way now. All I can say is, Thank you. ✌️ Tennessee
Groove and Blues = masterpiece. The hook gets you right away and now you've been baptized at the alter of Southern Rock. There is no time I have never not moved to any of this music and that includes right now.
"Somebody Loan Me a Dime", Duane Allman and Boz Scaggs, " I'll love you more than you'll ever know", Al Kooper !!! These songs just take my breath away. They are deep, and so full of soulful emotion..you will be transformed !!!
I remember when that was made...I couldn’t listen to guys enough. May all these dudes be in Heaven making music forever. They clearly had the Blessing of being truly Gift Music that were always setting trends. They had tragedy but the music they made never faded. God Bless each one of them.
When the album came out it was considered the best recording of a live performance. Simply the greatest southern rock band ever. Listen to Statsboro Blues
It's good to remember that the one guitarist Eric Clapton wanted to play in a supergroup with after his last supergroup, Cream, was finished was Duane Allman. For people who really know guitar, he is high up there in the all time best guitarists lists. So they formed Derek and the Dominoes, there was no Derek in the band, it was a combination of their first names; Duane and Eric. Even though Eric Clapton plays the solo riffs in Layla after Duane died, Eric has said that Duane played them on the studio album.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's Ronnie Van Zant dedicated their iconic song/anthem "Freebird" to the legendary Duane Allman on slide guitar. His brother Greg is the vocalist. R.I P
As a black woman I LOVE the Allman Brother and Gregg. Greggs voice is incredible and his talent is undeniable. I've got at least 45 or more of their songs in my apple library. I love them soooo much and miss Gregg. His book was incredible too! I've read it 3 times. Gregg,Duane,Berry and Butchie are gone, but they're greatly missed.
6'5" - Another great Allman Bros song!! I think your getting the majesty of the ABB in their prime right here. Gotsa, gotsa do Elizabeth Reed real soon.
Love Allman Brothers. Statesboro Blues. The slide guitar player was Duane Allman, who was a good friend of Eric Clapton. If you want something amazing, check out Derek and the Dominoes performing Layla. You will love it.
Great to hear the band lives on, there truly was a breakthrough in rock music whenever they took the stage. Two drummers, two lead guitarists and great vocals. They were the favorites of Tom Dowd, distinguished recording engineer and Bill Graham, owner of Fillmore East, the legendary rock auditorium. They were musicians’ musicians whose live performances were as good or better than their studio work.
Dude, I am so glad that you have been introduced to the greatness that is the Alloman Brothers.BTW, this song was first done by blues legend Elmore James then later by Sonny Boy Williamson II. If you get a chace check out their vwersion of the Blind Willie McTell classsic "Statesboro Blues"While check both of thosew out see if you can find miss Rory Block's version of it.
This is THE version of THE song that made me want to play lead guitar. I dabbled with trying to play before that, but mostly simple radio rock stuff. This song opened up the possibilities for me. Dickey's first solo on this still gives me goosebumps. His playing is stellar, and the tone is hot enough to fry an egg on those pickups! They remain my favorite band. Try out Black Hearted Woman, album version.
You picked a great one for a reaction. They were one of my favorites. Really miss them. They didn't make any music that wasn't good. Love them,always appreciative ,of my generations music. Mrs. Melissa Ward here.
The Breeze was written by J. J. Cale. It was one of very few cover tunes Skynyrd ever recorded. I'm not sure one way or the other, but it may have been their only recorded and regularly-played cover. Not bustin' anyone's chops here about authorship, just trying to give credit where credit is due. I love Skynyrd's cover of Mr. Breeze. Never even heard Cale (or any other big-name artist) perform it, but I do know J. J. Cale wrote it.
@@BluesStringer1955 i saw JJ do that song in NYC with an Okie who had been telling me about him for a while! It was amazing and we went to see Traffic but I kept JJ a secret until we approached the venue. Ben was so thrilled RIP BTO jr
They say Lynyrd Skynyrd is the best self proclaimed Southern Rock band. Nope it’s the Brothers. Their drummers are the glue that keeps them on time. They never skip a note and they never missed a lyric. And Dickie Bettts makes love to that guitar. Greg ( keyboard vocals ) l never saw him smile. And Dwayne, can’t say enough. I use to see them ALL THE TIME. For less than ten bucks. I don’t know if you know this Greg was married to Cher go figure.
Hey Jamel... No way I'm missing a live Allman Brothers tune from the best live album ever ! 😎🎹 😆🎸 Great song but my favorite is...... Midnight Rider ! (Request #1) Request #2: Got another set of brothers playing a sweet azz funky tune ! Enough talent for 2 or 3 bands... this one is unbelievable 😉 Johnny and Edgar Winter - Tobacco Road ! 🎷😎 🎙 😆🎸 Posted by: EDGARWINTEREVEO ( Love the channel man.... all the best ) ✌😎
"Dreams" from their 1st album. Duane's slide improvisation from 1:40 to 4:40 is a journey; a wellspring of ideas flowing freely from mind and spirit into magic.
I don’t know what tickles me most. Hearing the great music from my youth or witnessing the sheer joy on your face.
Me too.
The Allman Brothers were the best. Without them, an entire genre of music may have never been.
they sound like what we today call "progressive", and they were. New mix of different genre's and the members were ALL superb, just a perfect storm of talent.

Agree 110%
Best musicians of all time
deborah lariscy you should check out Duane Allmans anthology albums. It shows how versatile he was at young age . He could truly play any style

No one better than Allman Brothers. Their 1971 album from Fillmore East is perfect. Absolutely perfect.
Eat A Peach was a great studio album.
Was great
I am blessed, I'm 65 years old & the music I grew up with, I wouldn't change it for nothing, Blessed!!
Freaking Duane
One of Dickies greatest solos listen to that sound gives me chills still after all these years...What a great band...
One of Duanes best slide solos, too.
Listening to music with you is like listening to music with a good friend, man.
I agree!
That’s what we’re doing!
I agree !!! love ya man!
ain't my cross to bear introduced me to the blues
"Live At The Fillmore East" is easily one of the best live albums ever. "One Way Out" is a true masterwork of Southern Blues-Rock. The way Duane and Dickie trade licks is phenomenal---unparalleled.

yep, easily. 4 hours straight not a single flub and just killing
it just doesn't get any better than this
Your reaction is no different than ours was back when we first heard them.
And 50 years later, we still have that same reaction!
This was my first introduction song to the Allman Brothers. I was hooked.
And I was only 10 years old at the time!
@@pmar27 I was 10 when brothers and sisters came out, I was hooked from that point on...
Right On Brother ! When I saw them, we were shocked that they were as tight as James Brown's band , and that skinny white boy sounded like an elder black singer.
Yes, we do! We are stunned all over again- Thanks for sharing.
If I could go back in time and see one concert, this would be the one.
Was there for this show
You got it!!
I saw them in 1970, my first concert. Wow....
👍👍👍✌️
Same! And I was in college in CA at the time and didn’t know about this show!
I am 70 years old. I like the way you let the music play and give Reese briefly defined information so we can listen to the music
The 1970s are easily the GOAT of decades for music, both here in America and across the Atlantic. We were spoiled.
no dubbed sound - the filmore east is widely consideredthe best recorded live album of all time - no overdubs nothing but true genuine sound
Tom Dowd at the controls.
He thought they had dubbed it because the crowd was not clapping on time when he said "clap your hands". They were probably pretty stoned anyway.
The video, and audio were different. Just mashed together, to try their (the TH-cam editor) best, to make it look good.
The Greg parts (vocals) were easier to edit. The editor had *no* idea when it came to Duane’s guitar. It was a different song, in some parts.
"In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" What an amazing JAM!
I love that phucken song
And 'Hot 'Lanta'.
Greatest song ever.
Inspiring.
My favorite part of this song is the "call and response" soloing between Dickey Betts and Duane Allman! Gives me chills every time.
Just came to say the same thing, GOOSEBUMPS BABY!!
When the late, great Albert King sat in with them, he did a double take when Gregg started singing. He couldn’t believe that a voice with that much soul was coming out of a young , skinny , blonde white boy.

Greg was the best white blues singer ever period
Aretha Franklin had a similar response when she heard Duane Allman play at a recording session in Muscle Shoals Alabama.
@@alborrelli1604 His guitar solo at the end of Wilson Pickett’s version of “Hey Jude” is amazing.
Soulful voice
This is the stuff we grew up on in the 70s. We knew it was great but we had no idea that it was going to be revisited by future generations and given the attention it deserves as some of the greatest music ever made.
The Allman Brothers: When one drummer isn't enough, you get yourself a second!
Youbetcha the outlaws did it too!
And another percussionist
Plus a conga!
And 2 key boards, and two kick ass guitars, surprised they didnt throw another bass in the mix LOL
And make sure he's a brother for good measure!
“ Ain’t Wastin Time No More” “ Melissa “ “ Blue Sky” “ Midnight Rider” “ Southbound”
I second Melissa listen to it all day that Greg died
Jamel did react to Midnight Rider 😎
Soulshine!
Another vote for Midnight Rider & then all the rest 😉
You can't lose with The Allman Brothers.... especially live !
Oh yah.... he did do Midnight Rider thank you....
& I think he did Soulshine ?
Then Melissa will definitely do ! !
Isn't southbound Marshall Tucker? Which is fabulous btw
This was a very special time in rock history. We were actually united! Every time I hear this band it makes me smile!
The video isn’t the actual performance. There was no dubbing or anything. Pure talent. Pure ass talent.
I think it's from the performance, they just mixed the poor quality video with the recording of the songs they made for the album. Even whipping post was off.
Mind you... this is LIVE! No auto tune.... nothing phony..pure glorious talent!
Crazy they were all in their early 20's at the time. Old souls and a sound that was way ahead of the time. Instant classic.
Rolling Stone called this album the greatest live recording of all time some years ago... Try out "Stormy Monday" from this same album.
Best Allman Brothers song imo
@@michaelfite5273 Yes, Stormy Monday is the best song on the best live album ever!
Guys, I love Stormy Monday, but how can you choose. Elizabeth Reed is fantastic, Mountain Jam is surprising and creative, Whipping Post is, well Whippong Post.
That REAL MUSIC is over 50 years old... and can still make you get up and boogie. 😉 Dickey Betts can really play a 🎸

I named my daughter Jessica ...it was a toss up between that and Melissa .
Southern rock pulled the focus off Brit invasion rock, which quite frankly was ruling FM airways. These guys and others brought it home.
It's sad that no one makes music like this as much anymore. It was a special time for music creation.

It's not actually video of Duane playing that. Just a fan made video
Those clips of Duane in the tank top playing the goldtop were from Love Valley NC, not the Fillmore.
Watch a documentary called Muscle Shoals. One of the best documentaries I have ever seen regarding where the music came from! I thought I knew a lot, I didn't. And that slide guitar player, Duane Allman was a big part of that.
Muscle Shoals is great. just want to say there is a lot more...(southern rock/blues)
Never can sit still listening to Allman Bros!!! Ever since I was 14 yrs old! Always got up and danced to them!!!
This band was so tight, they never missed a beat. Just a shame Duane left so young. Regardless one of the best bands ever.
Funny that you say that, I'm pretty certain that they lose a beat and a half or so coming back in from the drum break/gtr solo on this recording (sounds like Berry jumps the gun?), but they're so fast to recover and play through that you'd barely even notice without counting the whole time.

I think the most amazing part about them is you really think about it that they're just a bunch of boys. A bunch of incredibly talented boys
I can't wait to see you do their song "Ain't wastin' time no more" and then you say your usual "alright we ain't gonna waste no more time". 😆
Steve Trowbridge clever 😆
My thought exactly!
That song always pops into my mind when he says that.
It's like were hearing it for the first time through him, right?
Everything by the Allman Bro's is Atomic Fire. Statesboro Blues, Southbound, Ain't Wastin' Time No More, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Jessica.......
Greatest southern rock band of all time. To Gregg and Duane, long may you run.
When the album came out it was considered the best recording of a live performance. Simply the greatest southern rock band ever. Listen to Statsboro Blues
Live at Fillmore East, a must listen the whole way through.
How about the Allman Brothers “Statesboro Blues”
Blind Willie McTell.
That's the one -- my favourite of all their great songs
SB & In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, my 2 favorite Allman Brothers tunes.
Boz Scaggs and Duane Allman - Loan Me a Dime 🔥🔥🔥
It's good to remember that the one guitarist Eric Clapton wanted to play in a supergroup with after his last supergroup, Cream, was finished was Duane Allman. For people who really know guitar, he is high up there in the all time best guitarists lists. So they formed Derek and the Dominoes, there was no Derek in the band, it was a combination of their first names; Duane and Eric. Even though Eric Clapton plays the solo riffs in Layla after Duane died, Eric has said that Duane played them on the studio album.
Nonsense. They debuted as Derek and the Dominoes weeks before they met Duane. And Clapton wanted anything but a supergroup after Blind Faith.
Dickey Betts is right there with him.
He was one of Duane's favorite guitarists.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's Ronnie Van Zant dedicated their iconic song/anthem "Freebird" to the legendary Duane Allman on slide guitar. His brother Greg is the vocalist. R.I P
Eat a Peach album was for Duane Allman who was on a motorcycle and was hit and killed by a peach truck. RIP Duane
What a band!Stones and Allman Brothers will be my go to sounds till they lay my body down!
As a black woman I LOVE the Allman Brother and Gregg. Greggs voice is incredible and his talent is undeniable. I've got at least 45 or more of their songs in my apple library. I love them soooo much and miss Gregg. His book was incredible too! I've read it 3 times. Gregg,Duane,Berry and Butchie are gone, but they're greatly missed.
Jamel - thanks for the selection! The ABB was great at building emotion through their music. And you can't beat the blues.
6'5" - Another great Allman Bros song!! I think your getting the majesty of the ABB in their prime right here. Gotsa, gotsa do Elizabeth Reed real soon.
One of my favorite songs ever! The DJ in my head plays this all the time when I'm on the back of the motorcycle
It's april 2024 and RIP to our Brother Dickie Betts. The road goes on forever. 💕💕💕💕🎸🎸🎸🎸
Love Allman Brothers. Statesboro Blues. The slide guitar player was Duane Allman, who was a good friend of Eric Clapton. If you want something amazing, check out Derek and the Dominoes performing Layla. You will love it.
Ha, we still are groovin to this music
brotha! 😆
You still need to do
"Midnight Rider"!
Great to hear the band lives on, there truly was a breakthrough in rock music whenever they took the stage. Two drummers, two lead guitarists and great vocals. They were the favorites of Tom Dowd, distinguished recording engineer and Bill Graham, owner of Fillmore East, the legendary rock auditorium. They were musicians’ musicians whose live performances were as good or better than their studio work.
Mr. Jamel luv ur reaction to ABB, those of us in the south been doing this for 50 years.ENJOY some southern blues/rock!!
Dude, I am so glad that you have been introduced to the greatness that is the Alloman Brothers.BTW, this song was first done by blues legend Elmore James then later by Sonny Boy Williamson II. If you get a chace check out their vwersion of the Blind Willie McTell classsic "Statesboro Blues"While check both of thosew out see if you can find miss Rory Block's version of it.
This was obviously a video of clips put together as opposed to actual footage of this show.
This is the good stuff, tho, man. So awesome.
True
Gregg Allman one of the best rock and roll singers EVER
Ronnie van Zant was better but both great. Greg Allman was mentored by his brother.
This is THE version of THE song that made me want to play lead guitar. I dabbled with trying to play before that, but mostly simple radio rock stuff. This song opened up the possibilities for me. Dickey's first solo on this still gives me goosebumps. His playing is stellar, and the tone is hot enough to fry an egg on those pickups! They remain my favorite band. Try out Black Hearted Woman, album version.
You picked a great one for a reaction. They were one of my favorites. Really miss them. They didn't make any music that wasn't good. Love them,always appreciative ,of my generations music. Mrs. Melissa Ward here.
Greatest live recording ever.
A good one is In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. I have several of their albums on vinyl.
Ain’t my cross to bear! Such a great song!
You should dive into more of this genre with Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Call Me The Breeze” live from the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1975!
Nah. "T For Texas," live at Knebworth 1976.
"Don't let that flag hit the ground."
@Nathan Brown @Joe Day both are just awesome!!!
Definitely
The Breeze was written by J. J. Cale. It was one of very few cover tunes Skynyrd ever recorded. I'm not sure one way or the other, but it may have been their only recorded and regularly-played cover.
Not bustin' anyone's chops here about authorship, just trying to give credit where credit is due. I love Skynyrd's cover of Mr. Breeze. Never even heard Cale (or any other big-name artist) perform it, but I do know J. J. Cale wrote it.
@@BluesStringer1955 i saw JJ do that song in NYC with an Okie who had been telling me about him for a while! It was amazing and we went to see Traffic but I kept JJ a secret until we approached the venue. Ben was so thrilled RIP BTO jr
Wow... never heard of these Brothers in my life...thanks Brother for bringing me here. I'm in ore of their talents
They say Lynyrd Skynyrd is the best self proclaimed Southern Rock band. Nope it’s the Brothers. Their drummers are the glue that keeps them on time. They never skip a note and they never missed a lyric. And Dickie Bettts makes love to that guitar. Greg ( keyboard vocals ) l never saw him smile. And Dwayne, can’t say enough. I use to see them ALL THE TIME. For less than ten bucks. I don’t know if you know this Greg was married to Cher go figure.
All of Eat A Peach...but you know what..." PONY BOY " is still one of my favorites.
Hey Jamel... No way I'm missing a live Allman Brothers tune from the best live album ever ! 😎🎹 😆🎸
Great song but my favorite is......
Midnight Rider ! (Request #1)
Request #2:
Got another set of brothers playing a sweet azz funky tune !
Enough talent for 2 or 3 bands... this one is unbelievable 😉
Johnny and Edgar Winter -
Tobacco Road ! 🎷😎 🎙 😆🎸

"Dreams" from their 1st album.
Duane's slide improvisation from 1:40 to 4:40 is a journey; a wellspring of ideas flowing freely from mind and spirit into magic.
You are a healer. This has absolutely made my day. We all need this.
Great. Without exception.
You should listen to Richie Havens: 'Freedom' at Woodstock. Legendary man.
YES!!
