Yes, I have some tracks from Hittin The Note - in fact that was the album that convinced me that the "new" Allmans are just as good as the old. Old Friend was a good choice - one of the best !

I also like the Stompin My Foot clip, SATCHMO. Very neat lyrics !
and talking of the North Mississippi Allstars, I wonder if anyone knows about this album ?



I think it`s the NMAs, but with Robert Randolph in the star spot, which sounds very promising. Has anyone heard it, or know where I can find it ?
Luckily the new Allmans were able to pick up someone like Derek Trucks. It's just crazy that his uncle is Butch Trucks. What are the chances that Butch would have a nephew as talented as Derek and that nephew would end up joining the band?

I love the flute playing on that album as well. They all are very talented musicians. Derek Trucks is just brilliant. His style is very jazzy.

I'm such a huge fan, I feel dumb for asking this. It's hard to tell which guitar is Duane or which is dickey sometimes. In songs like "blue sky" and "in memory of Elizabeth reed" is it all dickey on guitar since he wrote those songs? Or is Duane doing some of the lead playing?

That`s about the size of it!

Now it`s Warren Haynes on lead and Derek Trucks doing most of the slide work. Here they are playing the last track off of Hittin` The Note.



And for grins....Here is a live album y`all ought to check out!

So who's to say that betts wasn't as good or better than allman? If betts is doing all the guitar playing in songs like "bluebird" and "Elizabeth Reed", then Id say he's definitely really good.

Does anyone know if there's a ABB Fillmore east DVD? I can't seem to find one so I'm guessing there's not.

After watching some videos, Duane definitely did some soloing without a slide.

If your a Betts fan, you should check out Dickey Betts & Great Southern.

Default Allman Brothers Live ,Duane

I think anyone who got Duane Allman Anthology or know he plays .
Layla with Eric Clapton and a couple others on Derek and Dominos
Loan Me a Dime Boz Scaggs Duane and Boz playing wow no words
The beautiful Dobro on Please Be With Me by Cowboy
There are few men who influenced music the way Duane did ,I agree he went way past Progressive into Inventive
One of the few reasons to be glad you are a 60 yr old man is because I saw them and him
But we all use our own subjectivity to me Progressive moves a genre forward like the Beatles . Duane did it too his own way

Kind of off-topic, but anyone who enjoys the soaring guitars of a good Allman Bros jam would probably like this Jefferson Starship track:-



(Sometimes the music's a doorway...
If only we could keep this feeling...
Tonight....tonight... all night long...)


Gets me every time!
