No love for ZZ Top?

they're Southern-rock, just because their biggest hits had synths make people forget people that their stuff up to that point and shortly after that were Southern-rock

as for the Allmans, i don't think they can be considered prog at all, sure they had 20-minute jam sessions, but the songs are mostly blues-based and not complex enough to be "prog" nor are they suites of many smaller songs, the long jam is one long song, really

i just got Eat a Peach and At Fillmore East

At Fillmore East seems to fulfill the promise that Duane was the John Coltrane of the blues, but I wished they remastered or doctored it some more, as the guitar tone is very harsh and brittle on that
