Dickey was a very angry drunk who was violent towards Gregg, Warren & especially the gentle giant, Alan Woody! Because of Betts slapping Woody, Warren & Allan left ABB!
Please read Gregory's autobiography, "Cross to Bear." He said that he had never considered having to run the band; he thought of himself as the Hammond-playing vocalist. He said that Dickey thought that he had to "run" the band, and that if he had thought he could start over, the first thing he would do was fire Dickey Betts. Yeah, I know it sounds bad; but READ GREGG'S BOOK ! !
@@DavidSmith-ss1cg My Cross To Bear is sitting on my nightstand right now & I’ve read it 4 times. I did not read where GA mentioned that he should’ve fired Dickey after Duane died. Please say the chapter & page number where that statement is in GA’s book? Thanks!
@@briggs13a it's all a matter of taste. Warren is actually better technically than Dickie. But Dickie may have better tone and feel. You'll never be right with this. You can't prove your point.
@MARKIEBANUNCE The Allman Brothers Band was an American rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1969[3] by brothers Duane Allman (founder, slide guitar and lead guitar) and Gregg Allman (vocals, keyboards, songwriting), as well as Dickey Betts (lead guitar, vocals, songwriting), Berry Oakley (bass), Butch Trucks (drums), and Jai Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson (drums). Subsequently, based in Macon, Georgia, they incorporated elements of blues, jazz and country music and their live shows featured jam band-style improvisation and instrumentals. So many bands started in Jacksonville too.

I’ve always, since day 1 of hearing ABB, loved the attitude and feeling I’ve gotten with their music. It’s a day and hey! Tomorrow will be another one. With solemn respect RIP Dickey Betts.
UNCLE~MR.DAVID LETTERMAN IS LIVING ROYALTY..IN MY OPINION.. THAT MAN BROUGHT SO MUCH JOY AND LAUGHTER IN MY LIFE.. SEEING SOME OF MY FAVORITE GUITARIST'S ON HIS SHOW IS PHENOMENAL..
@@julietate7806 God tells us in the Holy Word who goes to Heaven and who does not. From what I have read, Gregg was a much nicer guy than Duane, so maybe one of them made it.
The live version of Melissa blows my mind! Watching Dickie Betts playing the hell out of his guitar. There were 3 of them all on acoustic. Melissa has always been my favorite Allman Brothers song.
I was fourteen when he died...crushed. We lost a ton of great musicians in a few short years. One who rarely gets mentioned along with Duane, Jimi, Morrison and Janice is Jim Croce.
What a band and legacy. Dickie may have flamed out on booze at the end but it doesn’t diminish his legacy.this performance,tour and album were all fantastic
Gregg is one of my favorite singers and is THEE ABB voice, but love Dickey singing this song. Can't imagine anyone but Dickey singing Ramblin Man either.
cannot get any better than this , just leaving Bubba Cox ja, we just played this one...... 46 years on Rogersville rd, every friday night and maybe 'Picking Palace on N E Cape fear you guys know,
Man I saw them in 92 and was an immediate convert. It was a religious experience for me. I had been playing metal on guitar and drums since 81 and I dove head first into the Allmans after that. I was already a devoted Skynyrd head but this was something improvisational and fun. Exactly what I was looking for at the time and it still is.... Shaffer doing a good Leavell :)
I started listening to them in 1969 with the self-titled album. Had already known about Duane as a session guitarist. So much great music during that period.
@@gsoltis29 I was crushed when he died...same with Jim Croce, Hendrix, Jim Morrison, half Lynyrd Skynyrd, seemed to drop like flies for a while. Seemed like not long after those (though it was) Lennon was gone then SRV.
Rick McCargar yeah I don't think we realized how good the music scene was back then Some of the shit today makes me want to cry 😂 People paying good money to listen to a guy play his iPhone through a PA system 😂
Paul Parks Wow! That’s really sad. A bunch of guys with God given talent who wasted their lives being Heroin addicts, drunks with multiple broken marriages, fighting separation in the band they couldn’t even get along with each other. these guys are your religion these guys are who you admire??
Linda Cull You’re probably someone who reads the tabloids as if they are real news. You wish to focus on some of the problems these men had in life and not what they gave us. Your soul is ugly and pathetic. And from your high horse you wish to cast judgement upon Paul Parks and the members of the band with that statement? Does that make you feel good? I feel I have to put some things into perspective with your absent-minded statement. The ABB suffered tragedy like no other band in rock, save maybe Lynyrd Skynyrd. But in spite of the multiple deaths, they endured and continued to produce some of the greatest music of all time. Think about that. They had their personal issues yes, but who are you to judge?
@@lindacull3447 says the one that believes in a fictional book (bible) and the people who look down their noses at everyone else that isn't a Bible thumper, one of the most unethical, hypocritical group that have the nerve to point fingers and judge. Fucking priceless!!!
Remarkable band, that almost didn't survive the late seventies with the disco an punk rock. They reinvented themselves into somthing greater, to become one of the best bands ever.
This is about when I started listening to the ABB. Saw them first in 1998 I think. Went on to see them at least 9 more times. One of my biggest influences on guitar by far. I think I like a lot more of the jams they did with Derek, but I miss this particular line up a lot. A lot of energy.
DICKEY BETTS IS A VERY SPECIAL GUY! NOT ONLY CAN HE WRITE MUSIC,, HE CAN PLAY THE #%IT OUT OF A LES PAUL,, AND HE "SINGS" LIKE A SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN! AND, HE COULD HAVE HAD "HOLLYWOOD" IN HIS HANDS TOO,,, BECAUSE HE COULD HAVE PLAYED SOME BELIEVABLE WESTERNS, AS A COWBOY, OR COUNTRY GENT!!!
@@randybolt1021 He is part Native American, while his ex wife Sandy Bluesky and their daughter are fully. The daughter is Jessica, whom he wrote the instrumental about.
I saw them in San Diego on that tour in 1994. Had modest expectations, thinking they were washed up junkies. Not so, they seemed sober and played fantastic.
Late summer opf 1994. How long after that did the Band part ways with Dickie? I still can't believe that happened. Dickie and Warren together was almost as magical as Dickie and Duane.
That may be so in your opinion however this band is NOT the Allman Brothers. After October 29, 1971 everything was nothing more than a series of tribute band.
Damn, dude, that was a bit harsh; ABB certainly survived after Duane, I agree the 2 double live albums put ABB on the musical map for all time; but look up the live bits from the Tonight Show, they were transcendant
Jessica, No One To Run With, Wasted Words, Melissa, Les Bres in A Minor, Can't Lose What You Never Had, End of the Line, Kind of Bird, Ain't Waistin Time No More, High Cost of Low Living, Come & Go Blues, Desdemona, Back Where It All Begins, True Gravity, Ramblin Man, High Falls, Win Lose or Draw, Soulshine, Seven Turns, Southbound, Nobody Knows...all recorded after October 1971....a hell of a series of tribute band.
I love the Allman Brothers (I'm a first-generation fan), but Betts is reaping what he sowed, and he admits that his long-term behavior is what drove him out of the band.
I'd say Greg was fortunate that it was his band. W hen you think of long term behavior issues he is the king. Betts was an all time great and we all reap what he sowed. .
I get it. Betts was a phenomenal guitar player and songwriter. There's no debating that. It was *his* admission that his behavior drove him out of the band. Greg and Duane hand their own issues with drugs and alcohol, so there's that, but it was their band at the end of the day.
OK, so Paul is Paul, no problem. He's cool, and nerdy. And Dave was almost an actual hero to me. But c'mon, get Paulie outa there. Let these modern day genius artists bestow their brilliance upon us unimpeded please. Makes Paul look like a pretentious little wannabe prick and Dave complicit in the obscenity. It's like pretending to paint along side Monet, or one of them....wish we could go back in time.
Out of shape bass player and drooling keyboard player were on heroin and so was dickie. Band hardly in top form here due to heroin and other substance abuse
R.I.P. Mr. Betts. Thanks for the wonderful music:)
A true legendary American band. RIP, Mr. Betts and Mr.'s Allman.
Dickey Betts looks and sounds majestic here. I saw them on this tour. It blew my mind!
Same here,my 1st show of seeing them
..horde festival Columbus,oh.
This is one of my favorite songs by the off the second set album
I wanted to but never got to
Lots of great shows over the decades. RIP Dickey, Duane, Greg, Butch. Truly. Thank you ❤😂
Will always recognize that sweet beautiful Betts tone. RIP
Everyone hating on Mr. Betts…??? As if you “know” him. Undeniable talent. Just shut up and enjoy it.
R.I.P. Dickey!
✌💀👍🎸🎼🎵🎶🇺🇸🔥

rip dickey .Dickey is a top 10 greatest talent of blues rock music.
Warren is a far better guitarist than Dickey ever was.
Warren is great he is no Dickey
Why don't u all just stop. Music is not a competition as Dickie said. Say who is your favorite, not who is best. You can't prove who is better.

The brother's 94 tour was outstanding. Hats off to 07-01-1994 Raleigh, NC, the Definitive show of the tour. RIP Dickey.
Fantastic tour
SARATOGA PERFORMING ARTS CENTER 1994 & 2012
So we're thier shows in Atlanta and Macon in 1974. I saw them both.

They ALWAYS played better IN MACON....like they had something to prove

Brings me back to my college days in the 70's!
Love the Brothers!!♥️
Nobody better than these guys for soo many reasons.

They gave us so much beautiful music and memories ❤
there was never a better and more versatile American band than the ABB

Warren is the hardest working man in music

Freshman year in college 77' upstate NY, NOTHING better than the Allman Brothers!!
Great memories!!!
Went and visted Greg and Duane's graves in Macon. I'm 68. First time I cried in years. I hope there is a Heaven.....
There is a Heaven, but rock stars don't go there for the most part.

The live version of Melissa blows my mind! Watching Dickie Betts playing the hell out of his guitar. There were 3 of them all on acoustic. Melissa has always been my favorite Allman Brothers song.
I’m 42 and just now discovering how amazing they are!
Same. Well it's been a few years for me but....always regret I definitely had time to see Gregg live and missed it.......
Was 7 when Duane died. Woke up some time later to Ramblin Man. Will always love these guys.
I was too. Little tow headed pony riding farm girl from south Georgia. ABB has always been here. Its part of our DNA like red clay and Blue Skies.
I was fourteen when he died...crushed. We lost a ton of great musicians in a few short years. One who rarely gets mentioned along with Duane, Jimi, Morrison and Janice is Jim Croce.
I was 7 also.....
Warren Haynes got great fucking tone!
Alan Woody was my best friend when I lived in Nashville. RIP, Alan.
Blessed are we to have had this national treasure of a band. RIP to the brothers that left us way too soon. Warren now holding down the fort.
You forgot about Brother Jaimoe!
What a band,super talented people. This is just glorious music,absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the video.
I have total love and respect and prayers for the Allman Brothers Band!
What a band and legacy. Dickie may have flamed out on booze at the end but it doesn’t diminish his legacy.this performance,tour and album were all fantastic
Sure miss these boy's.....the reason I play guitar today....
Great shortened version of this great song.
Awesome performance there!
Gregg is one of my favorite singers and is THEE ABB voice, but love Dickey singing this song. Can't imagine anyone but Dickey singing Ramblin Man either.
One of my favorite later song by the Brothers. Would usually stretch out to 15 mins in the live setting.
Dickey and Greg ...dont get any better !!!÷
Love this song
I was blessed to see The Allman Brothers 7 or 8 times. I saw Gregg Allman and friends 4 times. I miss those days.
Badass song by a badass band

Jam on. 🕉 🌟
OUTSTANDING!
I can dig it.
'94 or so, commuting across the GGB.
On the way one morning, KFOG plays "No One Left To Run With".
I had to pull off 19th.

Always a fan. I was told back in the day they might play in excess of three hours in concert? My thrill is seeing Dickie playing a PRS
I saw them once do a 4 hour show
Remarkable band, that almost didn't survive the late seventies with the disco an punk rock. They reinvented themselves into somthing greater, to become one of the best bands ever.
When Gregg and Butch passed a little part of me died inside also...All my band mates felt the same.
And Warren still remains. Thank goodness for that.
love you so much

Yesssssirerreerrrrr
Brilliant
magic

sh*t ....30 yrs ago....sounding like yesterday..

DICKIE BETTS!!!
BEST F-CKING BAND EVER! EVER!!!
👍
Paul Schaffer is LUCKY to be playing here!
Sorry to report Dickey passed today.
At the end the bust into Jessica.
Only 3 drummers? Slackers
Title of this tune, anyone ?
Back where it all begins
Do these bands on letterman really want paul scheafer playing with them?
Ever heard of an intro. sounds like the grateful Dead but with cheesy lyrics
That Les Paul sounded better than the PRS . Why ? Dk
I sure hope this sounded better live, because the mix is really bad.
Mustache Dickey plays and sings better... I'm just saying
dicky betts was like Waylon Jennings did things his way except Waylon was the boss in the almon brothers they were the boss too bad
This group of musicians reminds us of The Allman Brothers, however it is not The Allman Brothers
October 29 1971 Disrespectful horseshit.
Much preferred the Warren + Derek + Oteil era, honestly. I understand the nostalgia, however.
I love the Allman Brothers (I'm a first-generation fan), but Betts is reaping what he sowed, and he admits that his long-term behavior is what drove him out of the band.
I've noticed its ALWAYS the UA-cam channels with no content themselves that are most critical of others. Be careful you don't reap what you sow.
I'd say Greg was fortunate that it was his band. W hen you think of long term behavior issues he is the king. Betts was an all time great and we all reap what he sowed. .
People mellow when they get older
I get it. Betts was a phenomenal guitar player and songwriter. There's no debating that. It was *his* admission that his behavior drove him out of the band. Greg and Duane hand their own issues with drugs and alcohol, so there's that, but it was their band at the end of the day.
Meh…. Never heard this song
OK, so Paul is Paul, no problem. He's cool, and nerdy. And Dave was almost an actual hero to me. But c'mon, get Paulie outa there. Let these modern day genius artists bestow their brilliance upon us unimpeded please. Makes Paul look like a pretentious little wannabe prick and Dave complicit in the obscenity.

You talk shit you know nothing about
You remind of a line from the late great Sam Kenison -Rockers against drugs?? That’s like Christians against Christ!
Sorry I can not appreciate dicky bets voice..very ordinary…just stick to his guitar playing and let Gregg do ALL the singing. No soul.
