How lucky are we who grew up with the ABB, and now that we are on the homestretch of our time on earth, we have great artists like this to see us home?
i grew up with my dads radio playing all the great classic rock bands, and now im 20 with a legendary musician to see live myself so i dont have to feel bad about when i was born
I love the big picture of dicky in the background in my opinion one of the greatest guitar players and I think he's a little bit underrated but he made the Allman Brothers who they are
I knew Rich since I was about 16. He would come eat with us. We were also together, with other family members playing, on his, American Music Tour. This was so sentimental to me. His photo, with Wil preforming his Rambling Man, great hit, is so beautifully done, and spiritually moving. No one could ever preform it better, than my precious Wil. I LOVE YOU WILLIAM LEA APOSTOL. God bless you and the Billy Strings band members and crew. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@lloydthomas9793 oh I know. But “electric guitar effects” for an acoustic only get you so far. It’s amazing to see how he can replicate the intonation and feel that a les Paul would allow.
I often despair about how the music has gone, the good music. But then guys like this come along, and there are quite a few. Some are as good or better than those they cover. And, the originals are still out there too, on the memory of the internet, and in my archives. So the music is not dead, it's sleeping, and can be awakened, and even re-born.
It sucks that all the legends are passing away. Pretty soon all the classic rock bands will be gone. Seems like yesterday you could still see them all in concert.
Me and my fiance saw Billy strings in Philly I can't remember where but that young man puts on a great show and he can play the guitar like really play more than just acoustic that boy can jam RIP dickey and long live Billy
Its not just one guy. Get to know the band. Billy Strings - Lead Guitar & Vocals Royal Masat - Contrabass Billy Failing - Vocals, Banjo Alex Hargeaves - Fiddle Jarrod Walker - Mandolin, vocals
Anyone in NE Florida, gotta see someone, anyone at the St Augustine Amphitheatre, the AMP, at least once. Best place to see a band around. Billy Strings? Well, the best bands know all about the venue, they love playing there, it's fast becoming the East Coast's Red Rocks.
Totally agree, our fourth year in a row for Billy at the amp. I actually enjoy it more than RR in some ways. Best venue and staff anywhere on the east coast by far!
With the utmost respect for Dickey Betts: short version I bought Dickey a beer once in the 80’s which he politely refused saying “I’m on the wagon”. I’m the guy who bought Dickey the only beer he ever refused!
Video doesn't do it justice. I was there in person for this, and the crowd went absolutely apeshit. One of the best final encores of all times. RIP Dicky!

Well put sir.
I was thinking of something like that but Atari to smart phones. 🎉

That’s a big 10/4
Billy Strings is saving us! Rejoice brothers and sisters. Let’s tip a glass together and be grateful for life.
Hope for the future for sure!
pun intended?
Billy is a generational talent
Billy Strings paying tribute to Dicky Betts. The stars aligned and the Universe was in balance.
Allman brothers saved the Fox theater in Atlanta from being destroyed. God bless them boys.
Goddamn right, saints in that town. Lived there 14 years and they are beloved
Hot damn Billy Strings🤙
Great tribute to Dickey Betts, would have loved to have seen that live!❤
I was a 10 yo kid when I heard the Fillmore album….55 years later, still the best. Will miss dicky betts. People didn’t realize how great he was
I love the big picture of dicky in the background in my opinion one of the greatest guitar players and I think he's a little bit underrated but he made the Allman Brothers who they are
Dickie saved the Allman Brothers
had no idea he wrote their biggest hits and my favorites like Blue Sky and Jessica. tremendous musician
@@heavysmoke54yeah that’s why they kicked him out. Because he saved them. 🙄👎
I agree , Dicky was kind of looked over.
The Dickie-Warren era of ABB was my favorite
Wow, one days notice and they lay that down. RIP Dickie, many enjoyable roadtrips to your music!
Fantastic tribute for DB, in FLA no less!
Just AWESOME tribute to Dickey!
This is the fourth time I'm watching this.....nice tribute to Dickie Betts
Love Billy's playing.....
R.I.P. Mr Betts
This kid got Talent on Top of Talent 😊😊😊

Lord, this is absolutely beautiful.
Great music is Great music, forever and ever!
Some people are the channels
It is their very essence…
What a beautiful tribute and an awesome performance!!! Thank you Billy!! RIP Dickey❤
Thanks for keeping it classic. RIP Dickey.
Non-guitarists will not appreciate how hard it was to play those licks on an acoustic guitar.
I can’t believe he does that with an acoustic. 😊
Billy has lots of special effects pedals to work with.
@@lloydthomas9793 oh I know. But “electric guitar effects” for an acoustic only get you so far. It’s amazing to see how he can replicate the intonation and feel that a les Paul would allow.
@@ZacBLive It's just a distortion pedal.
@@brendanbullock9468 that’s incredibly ignorant and I think you’re trolling.
He may have dropped to 12s for this performance, but he usually uses 13s, which is crazy
Absolutely phenomenal. What a tribute.
A Great Tribute to Mr. Betts Here, Thank You, I lived on Highway 41 Before this song came out, Cousin Figel
Nice Jessica quotation 3:52
Had to go back and listen. But yep! Good ear!
Beautiful and great tribute to another wood and steel master.
It was incredibly beautiful! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy it again.
Never heard an acoustic sound SO much like an electric.
But that's Billy.
Wonderful rendition.
Effects pedals hah but it's def cool. I plug in my Taylor to some mild distortion here and there. The beauty of music 🤘
Holy hell this is so cool. My new favorite cover of a Dickie song! Rock on Billy!
Great job Billy I know dicky would appreciate that awesome job Great picking

Thanks for the professionalism you achieved in the making of this most excellent tribute.
Billy brings the talent and in superb taste.
Thanks bro. Absolutely phenomenal.✌️🇺🇲
Thanks brother!!!
Outstanding tribute!!!!!
Wow!! Blown away! I still have the original album. Wow.
I guess that's as good as it gets, now.
That's just fine with me. Thanks, Billy.
I’m sure Dickey would have appreciated this, Billy and company. A beautiful tribute from one brilliant artist to another. RIP Dickey
All my fav classic bands are gone mainly Pink Floyd & ABB. Glad I got to see them live 8X and Gregg Allman solo band twice.
Love it…thanks for sharing!
Thanks Billy!❤
Beautiful tribute and so well grooved out. Wow
Wow--love those riffs in the Strings Band style! Such great musicians. Thanks to whoever posted this.

That's respect
If that Billy Strings keeps practicing he'll be pretty darn good... 😉 Great cover on an accustic! 👍👍
BMFS!!! NOMORE TO BE SAID AND HIS BAND ..INF*****CREDIBLE!
start around 1:40 and watch the magic happen when billy flips that switch on his acoustic and makes it sound like a completely different guitar. wow.
Nice one Billy 🙏
Royal !!!!
And a slight thread or two of 'Jessica' in there for good measure
And the music lives on! Fuck.
Dickie would be psyched.
🕯️
Super
Nice little nod to “Jessica” at 3:50
I'd guess that was a blunt there at the end! 🚬
cant learn it, Gotta be born with it.
With the utmost respect for Dickey Betts: short version I bought Dickey a beer once in the 80’s which he politely refused saying “I’m on the wagon”.
I’m the guy who bought Dickey the only beer he ever refused!
Whew! Kid can Play!
Water is wet

Hell yeah. I was in the pit. Not a dry eye in the house.
How can you not love this dude. I love his covers the most I think shit is incredible
Somebody give this guy a Tele.😮
Damn it, my only problem here is that the sound quality is worse than the commercials that precede
