I had the pleasure of playing with Gregg in 1992 at 3 Cheers in Ormond Beach. In those days very few people had cell phones but the place was absolutely packed before we even went onstage. We knew he was coming but nobody else did. What a memory!
The Allman brothers Intrusmentically especially was off the charts. I think the Allman Brothers was the BEST Rock n Roll Band of all times. Every song was a hit. They will forever be in my heart and soul of music icons.
gregg allman is a true rock n roll champion and he was well loved at my place often blasting out the speakers ! gone but not forgotten = mr la noir = the midnight rider !
I truly loved this man. Dan Rather had done the best interview with everything laid out. He was very humble and just wanted a simple life. When Dan asked him when the time came what song would he like played at his memorial service. He laughed and said, “the next one”. The next one was the last album he did. Listening to it once was heartbreaking. Some day I hope to be able to listen to it again without eyes of waterfalls. RIP Gregg. 🦋🦋🦋
'Ramblin' Man'? Greg was the 'Midnight Rider' NOT the 'Ramblin' Man'. Richard Betts IS the 'Ramblin' Man' - he wrote it and he sang it. Midnight Rider was Gregg's signature song from The Allman Brother days and his solo career.
Ive seen the Allmans play up close. Greg played his organ with his back to the crowd at the corner of the stage. Dickie Betts stood center to play. I read later that he suffered stage fright and realized that was the only way he could perform. I love him so. His legacy is with us
Since i was 14, some 52 years. Yes it is difficult indeed to imagine a life without Duane or Gregg around anymore. A personal and musical lonliness for sure. May they rest until we meet again.❤
I would see him a lot, his mom lived about a block from me in Daytona Beach Shores, he would cruise around with the T-tops off his white trans am and his bleached blonde hair blowing in the wind. Saw him and his band play the famous Wreck Bar in Daytona, down on Main street, were most of the 70's southern rock bands played. Once he had his daughter with him, when she was young, seemed like a sweet kid, what happened? Never really liked their music, but they were good at what they do, can still see him slamming his Hammond and Chastity climbing on him and his organ.😎
Most ppl who are alcoholics R. It's part of the disease that keeps them drunk & miserable... Fortunate 4 him & us he tackled that Demon years ago or he would've died long ago... GENETICS like Diabetes comes down thru the generations. U either get or don't. If ya do ya gotta learn how to live without it.
@@KENTUCKY-MAMA He wasn't a tortured soul because he drank. Their Dad was murdered and then he lost Skydog Furthermore if alcoholism is a disease than why does he Lord say "NO DRUNKARD will enter the gates of Heaven". Gregory was completely clean and sober since 1995
Men that have been married to Cher don't seem to last very long. Boy...Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker, Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels...all the influential musicians from my youth are slowly going. Even though CCR is no longer, I hope John Fogerty can hang in there a little longer.
God Bless his kids & his Wife Shannon Williams, the ppl that really suffer from the pain of his loss. We as fans, we miss him dearly but have his music so he will always b with us. Does Cher think she’s still married to all her ex husband’s, just so she can b seen going to the funerals & make them about her. They had said they wanted it small & no fan fair……….that’s all she brings with her.
@Linda Graham..that was over 40 yrs ago. Respect his wife & move on. I’m not sure all his ex wives & mother’s showed up ……would have been a bit crowded don’t u think.
@@lindagraham3346 There wasn't any substance between them. Her love is a narcissistic type of love and he wasn't one to be ordered around. Oil and water.
@@patriciagonzales2148 She was the mother of his oldest son. She'd have not got near the place if not welcome We should respect a family's grief. Making comments that hurt others is sad.
The Allman boys were honestly the epitome of Blue-Eyed Soul. James Brown " Mr. Dynamite" Had only one tape in his Learjet 23, It WAS his favorite ! The Allman Brothers Live. He hired the band's co-founder and keyboardist Mike Lawler to tour South and Central America Coliseum "Extravaganzas" . While traveling from Nashville to Augusta to rehearse for the Concerts he said. "Mike you need to go get fitted for the uniforms we will use, and go to J.B. Whites in Augusta and get a wardrobe for casual traveling and press conferences. On my account. These clothes you got look like a Bum! Mike was dressed in uber-expensive denim creations by Mr. Alamo, a gifted cult leader that could turn a denim jacket into a $25.000.00 collectible! Mike just smiled! and said he would comply! Joined with the musical director Hollie Ferris, They blew the audience away!
Wow people! Gregory is remembered for so many things. But not being the Rambling Man. That would fit Dickey better. Since he wrote the song and sang it.
If Cher goes to funerals for all her husbands , boyfriends, lovers and ex’s she will be busy every day the rest of her life . She was a busy woman and bedded everyone and anyone . Needs to retire
Why praise God a fictional character in a book that promotes slavery incest mass genocide and paedophilia that`s what your God condoned the imaginary sky daddy.
Mir gefällt Cher's Coolness - aber ihre Ehemänner sollte sie sich etwas sorgfältiger auswählen u. nicht mit Junkies umherziehen , das schadet ihrem Ruf !
Guarantee the last thought was Duane got out of 50 yrs of this fake ship. Musicians only want to play not talk or interview or have celebs show up and be fake.
Mr Allman was clean (everything including cigarettes) from 1995 on, after his embarrassing presentation during the R&R HoF induction ceremony, till his death except for one pain pill relapse after major surgery. He finished well, don't you think ? Liver x-plant was much later than '95. Damned ol' cancer came back...
Gregg was not a "Ramblin' Man". That song was written and sung by former ABB member Dickey Betts. The band didn't perform it after Betts was fired in 2000. Really Sloppy research.
I had the pleasure of playing with Gregg in 1992 at 3 Cheers in Ormond Beach. In those days very few people had cell phones but the place was absolutely packed before we even went onstage. We knew he was coming but nobody else did. What a memory!
So sad his life style caught up with him. Quiting in the 90s likely gave him several decades more. Beautiful man. So gifted....RIP
That's a great memory indeed! You're so lucky to have it, and thanks for sharing it with all of us! Peace
Extraordinary musician who remains sorely missed, RIP Mr. Allman.
The best musician of all time in my book. RIP Gregg and thanks for giving us tons of great songs to listen to forever.
R.I.P. and God Bless your family and friends. You’ll never be forgotten.
Greg became a humble man. I respect that.
R.I.P. Brother, God bless you and your family. Your music will live on. We will never forget you...
Greg Allman was a wise man and looking at himself was able to trust God For all he needed in the end to Overcome all.
Rip Christian brother
Donna - That's good to know.
Thank you, Gregg your music is still alive with your songs . You Duane are still singing , to a different quire. Your songs live on today ♥️♥️
Huge fan of the Allman brothers, especially, Gregg. RIP
Ur thinking of Duane Allman
God. you're so missed Gregg! i hope you're picking & grinning with Dwayne 💔

He was such a great musician
Thank you for your wonderful music
You still make my SOUL SHINE😘 MUCH GRATITUDE FOR YOU AND YOUR MUSIC😘😘😘😘REST WITH THE ANGELS😊😊
Always had a crush on him since 1974. I remember when he showed up on PEOPLE Mag with Cher I flipped

Ramblin Man is a song written by Dickie Betts.
Out of all his children Elijah and Island resemble him the most and then Michael.
What about Devon he`s the spitting image.
Greg allman one of the badesst best musicians of all time
She wasn't a single mother - she was a widowed mother. She was married to their father, who was the sole father of her two children.
To me it is the same thing widowed or not. It is documented her husband died when the boys were young. The father was murdered I believe
HUGE Brothers fan, aren't ya? Dickey wrote Ramblin' Midnight Rider would have been a better choice
Elijah Blue is 15 seconds into the video.
Gregg is not the Ramblin Man. That is a Dickey Betts' song.
Gregory Allman is the" Midnight Rider" ;)

Gone too soon, what a legend !!
Finally Gregg has met again "Brother Duane"
RIP brothers we love yous❤😇
Ramblin' Man wasn't even Gregg Allman's song, it was Dicky Betts
Whatever. Can you not find something positive to say Jeezzz
Ramblin Man was a Dickey Betts song, but I sure do miss the Allman Brothers Band. Gregg was a great musician.
Followed Allman's B. B. History .,....RIP GA.
The Midnight Rider
Long may you run brother Gregg!!
It was Gregg's funeral. Dickey Betts is the Rambling Man.

I'm pretty sure Elijah is the man in black with sunglasses coming down the steps behind Cher at :15.
@@Stonesygirl I think you are right. Thank you!
Rip Gregg Allman
It is shocking.☹☹🙏🙏🙏🙏. RIP.

If Cher goes to funerals for all her husbands , boyfriends, lovers and ex’s she will be busy every day the rest of her life . She was a busy woman and bedded everyone and anyone . Needs to retire
How would you know that?
Oh SHUT UP.....for real...🙄😴😂
@@NightCalls001 thank you!
@@vickitrotter7947 Cher needs to go away ....she is old news and full of plastic and Botox .....it is a shame as she was pretty
Jealous much? 🐝
He had a successful liver transplant, he had gotten Hep C from dirty tattoo needle. He supposedly was on the right track for a healthy life.
Not the rambling man He’s the midnight Rider
RIP Gregg
very good ...mmmmmmmmmkkkk
Finally at peace praise God.
Why praise God a fictional character in a book that promotes slavery incest mass genocide and paedophilia that`s what your God condoned the imaginary sky daddy.
Rest In Peace..
He could not stand Cher!! Noticed his son was not allowed to even come to funeral!!! Cher you old hag!!! RIP GREG!!!💜
Elijah attended the funeral you putz.
Bucolic Frolic
In this instance, Charles made more sense than either of them. 🙄😘
Too bad a computer has been chosen for this video......
IKR
Click bait!
Headline is misleading. Story ok, but still... Come on man... Just be straight up in saying that this is history, not Their relationship!
Cher looks like Michael Jackson. All the surgery
Rambling man? Get your facts straight dude
Mir gefällt Cher's Coolness - aber ihre Ehemänner sollte sie sich etwas sorgfältiger auswählen u. nicht mit Junkies umherziehen , das schadet ihrem Ruf !
She buried two already?
Guarantee the last thought was Duane got out of 50 yrs of this fake ship. Musicians only want to play not talk or interview or have celebs show up and be fake.
I blame drugs
Jazzy An Kazzy Krazzee Heartache - finally at peace praise God.
Where the hell was Elijah Blue ?????? Cher made an 'appearance' yet couldn't convince her sons to attend ?
dale smith Check again thought he was behind her on the stairs.
dale smith Elijah Blue was there. The red haired guy who sat next to her. all of Greggs kids were there.
Donna L Romero .15 seconds into video is EB
Laurie Guirguis .11 seconds into video. the guy on the hillside with the orange t shirt is Dickey, who momentarily took off his cowboy hat
Steve Nourse do you know how many kids he has I always thought he had 5 but last night I read he has 7 .
Too young.
Abused donated liver. Ungrateful.

He was definitely clean by then. He wanted to live. I could see it in his eyes and i could hear it within the band. Gregg loved music so much!
Dicky betts wrote and sung "rambling man"
Gregg was not a "Ramblin' Man". That song was written and sung by former ABB member Dickey Betts. The band didn't perform it after Betts was fired in 2000. Really Sloppy research.
Greg was the "MIDNIGHT RIDER" , not the ramblin man, that was Dickie Betts.
'Rambling Man' is Dicky Betts (author & singer of that tune)
