Blue Sky is like food for a starving soul. I could listen for hours and never get tired of it. So much talent. So terrible to lose Duane and Barry so young. So much goodness that we will never have. Eat a peach for peace!
Well said! I graduated from High Schoo in 77'. There were so many great bands in those times that we kinda took it for granted. Now that I watch these reactions I'm truly getting a sense of how blessed I've been growing up with all this classic music. Thank you!
Dickey Betts wrote and sang this great old song, he and the legendary Duane Allman on dual guitar solos. So much of their music served as the soundtrack to my youth 🎼
My brother went off to college near Macon, GA. In 1971. I was 13 and when he came home, it was the first time I heard the Allman Brothers Band, I was forever hooked on their music!
Big part of the soundtrack of my life! Being a southerner, the ABB was also a great source of pride for us! Blue Sky and Jessica ALWAYS put a smile on my face!!
I envy the drummer. He got to sit there keeping perfect beat and seeing and hearing all this greatness happening around him. I imagine him at the end of the song just throwing down his sticks and congratulating everyone.
"Blue Sky" is a masterpiece, just as you said. And you are spot on -- the 70's are the best decade of popular music. I was 13 when this song hit the radio waves. Blew us all away. The Allman Brothers Band is one that can truly be labeled as under-appreciated. They are loaded with hits.
Tee needs to react to Wilson Pickett's version of Hey Jude, Duane talked Wilson in to doing it over lunch, best cover ever and was recorded while the Beatles version was still #1
This is one of my favorites. I was a freshman in HS when I bought this album. Dude.... "Good ol Sunday morning bells are ringing everywhere, going to Carolina, won't be long till I'll be there...." Growing up in the rust belt, this song crushed me during dark winter days... I actually moved to Carolina.
My thoughts and feelings on first time hearing this? I'd heard about this song from friends who'd attended a show at stonybrook univ on Long Island, BUT I'd never heard it before Eat a Peach came out. As you know though,.Duane Allman, my favorite guitar player along with the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia, had died a little over a month after that stonybrook univ. show, so when EAP was released in 1972, finally getting a chance to hear Blue Sky and other songs on that album brought tears to my eyes and an additional ache to my heart. To this day, it still kind of does. The original lineup Allman brothers Band remains, along w/the Dead, one of two of my favorite bands. Can't even describe what a loss Duane's death was to the music loving world. It remains incalculable, but way beyond devastating. Loved your reaction video; god bless!!!
I saw them at Jacksonville State (Alabama) in 1969 when I was 19. I had never heard of them at the time. There were only about 100 people in the crowd and we were all crowded around the stage digging this new sound.
Thank You Tee. Awesome reaction video. Yes we did have the best of times in those late 60's/ 70's era. Our Music was our life and lives. Our attire was based on music. Black Concert T's and Bell Bottoms with blue Addias and a Du-rag. Rock and Roll all night was how we lived..
So TNT, I write this to you the day the guy who wrote this song, Dickey Betts, passed away. The Allman Brothers had two drummers and two guitar players both who played lead. They are both featured in the solo. The first part of the solo was played by Duane Allman and it is believed it was the last thing he recorded before dying of a motorcycle crash just a few weeks later. the second part was Dickey's. You can tell where they switch as there is a few bars of duet as there is at the close of Dickey's as they come back to the song. Dickey wrote the song about his Native American girlfriend/wife Sandy "Bluesky" Wabegijig. As for me I first heard it in 1972 at the age of 15 in tenth grade. I have always loved the song as it reminds me of a beautiful summer day. I a 67 now and I still can go back to the same place I first heard it and appreciate the beauty in the souls of these guys, now passed, who created it and a lot of other great stuff they created. I have found music in every decade that I have loved but you are correct the 70's had the best. It was at a time when the artists ruled the companies from 1966 through 1975 there was more experimentation and crossing of genres and people becoming virtuosic with their playing than you will find at any other time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
T sorry I missed the stream. Like Connie commented the Allman Brothers don’t disappoint. RIP Duane Allman died at the young age of 24. He was a phenomenal guitar. RIP Gregg Allman.
Got this album when it first came out (early 1972) whilst at college (Florida State). Reminds me of the summer quarters when there was one-quarter the student population on-campus; I could bike, run, play tennis or 3-on-3 basketball with friends BECAUSE NOBODY WAS AROUND! Throwing frisbee on Landis Green without fear of hitting anybody except my flingin' friends, running full-out in my healthier youth (was 20-y-o then, I'm 71 now). Could play music as loudly as I wanted because neighbors had gone home, sorority gals gone as well. But it was the peacefulness of the campus which usually was bustling when school was in. My own little kingdom, but it was MUSIC THAT WAS KING, not me -- I was just a happy vassal biking around and being the lord of all I could see.
Your review was so on point. I grew up listening to the Allman Bros. Was my dad’s favorite band. Ramblin Man was played at his funeral so hearing other people hear them and appreciate them makes my heart ❤️ happy.
Your take on 70's music and what's missing in today's music alone garnered a sub. You're not wrong brother! As for this song. I always think three minute combined guitar solos from Duane and Dickey. The playing is as tasteful as you'll ever hear. It never gets old, even after 50 years of hearing it.
Love Allman Brothers. Live at Fillmore East is one of my favorite albums. The stuff before Dwane and Barry passed are the best. Spent lots of time drinking beers and smoking weed listening to them
this is an AWSOME thing you have done here. This song is so unique and has actually been on my mind for over a week now. I shared it with my son and daughter because they are my sunny day. I love all people and you know it makes me high when we all turn to love.
Dickey Betts, the singer and guitarist on this track, wrote this song about his native American girlfriend Sandy "Bluesky" Wabegijig... and this song was one of Duane Allman's last recorded tracks.
Where this song takes me . Summer Vacation in the Catskill mountains of N.Y. during the 70's where my teen years resided . Especially once we were older & ditched the resorts pool for the local & much more fun swimming hole 🙂
Best road trip and makes me want to appreciate my partner the sky and the land I'm driving through smell the freshly cut hay see the stars and sunrise and the rockies appear in the west. Great music to feed the soul
T i just read about Duane Allman before the Allman brothers he was a session musician this is who he played for Wilson Pickett, Clarence Carter, Aretha Franklin, King Curtis, John Hammond, Ronnie Hawkins, Boz Scaggs and Herbie Mann.
Shout out you for doing this. I love the blues of the Allman Brothers. "Whipping Post" is one of the best live rock songs ever. However, it is good to hear the country music from the Allman Brothers too. "Rambling Man" was a big hit by them on the radio back in the day with country music also.
Ramblin man got played to death. It got to where I changed the station when it came on. Better songs, Jessica, One Way Out, Soulshine, Statesborough Blues and many others.
@@dbegley990 Yes, the radio burned me out on several songs, like Free Bird and Sweet Home Alabama. Rambling Man was a big hit then, although I do not hear it on oldies much now. Glad it and Blue Sky get some play now too.
This is my favorite Allman Brothers song. Most people when they think of AB guitarists, they think of Duane Allman first and then maybe Warren Haynes or Derek Trucks. But Dickey Betts (when he was sober) was superb. This song was one of Duane Allman's last recorded performances with the band. Although Dickey wrote this song, he suggested Greg Allman sing it--but Duane talked DIckey into singing. p.s. Did you know this song was named for Dickey's wife, an American Indian named Bluesky?
I was 11 years old in 1973 sitting in my brother's car when he put this song on his 8 track cassette deck. I was spellbound by the song and the guitar solos and it started a lifetime interest in guitarists although I don't play one. The song is still just magic. I have listened to all the great guitarists and solos of the past 50 years and few move me as much as these do. Amazing. Both solos are just so melodic and well constructed building up to their peaks.
I heard this song for the first time when I was 18, back in 1993, and it's been my favorite song from that day. No song has ever brought so much feeling to me as this one.
Kinda narrow minded...you should check out the 20s and 30s .This and that time period produced classics ( no not classic radio but musically the shining eras of our short time as a nation ) .
The Allman brothers were fabulous. I saw them in 1969 in Sarasota. Then they rented a house in Venice FL on the Myakka River for rehearsing and they would play all night. There is no such thing as a bad Allman Brothers song. The music pulls you in, you think this song is for ME.
The 70s is by far the real music era. Loved all the all an bros. This album eat a peach is a tribute duane all man. He ran into a peach truck and was killed. Rip another legend.
To me personally, when you add up the smoothness, the playing, the melody, the improv, the ease of this - it could be the best guitar solo in history...lucky enough to see them in '76
I agree with you completely!!! I graduated high school in ‘73. The music was incredible! I’m grateful to have grown up with the music of that time! I was too young to make it to Woodstock, but I made it to Watkins Glen to see The Band, The Grateful Dead and The Allman Brothers, along with over 600,000 of my brothers and sisters. Memory of passing out as lightning was traveling horizontally across the sky in the pouring rain as the the Allman Brothers were finishing up playing Jessica.
And yes, I’ve seen them many times. Greg Allman even played at my high school when he was going through rehab in Buffalo. To say that was a surprise would be an understatement!
This song reminds me of riding down the road with my parents headed to the mountains in the Blue ridge hills of Virginia. With that country laid back sound.
Grew up when all these songs were new. Amazing time. This album was dedicated to Duane, one of the brothers who was killed in a motorcycle accident. Another video you have to check out from them is Seven Turns on the Highway. Watch Dickey Betts switch between acoustic guitar and do some lead work. Amazing times, amazing band!
The song pulls you in. Everything they did pulls you in. I saw them in 1969 in Sarasota Florida. I was 14. Never heard of them before. The opener "don't want you no more" it's not my cross to bear" and I was stunned at how good they were. I seen Elvis, Zeppelin, Bowie, the only other band that was as good was Steely Dan. But the Allman Brothers rented a house on the Myakka River and rehearsed out of it and would play all night long.
WORD!!!! my man!!!!! For me this song reminds me of fishing in the summertime! Also memories of me trying to learn the solos(on vinyl, putting the needle back a million times!) I did get it!!! :)
Back in high school my brother bought the 8-track tape of this album & played it. I heard it through the wall but this song got my attention. I asked him who it was & bought the album.
Could possibly be the most happiest song ever next to ELO's Mr Blue sky it's really close. Seriously happy vibrations . Try Melissa from that album, will not disappoint.
I had an old Chevy Camaro RS Convertible. The morning i got the car, i remember specifically this song as the first song i heard on the radio in that car on the Lodge freeway in Detroit. Fun car, great car.
One of the last songs Duane Allman played on from this album before his accident. They played it a few times live, but he didn't live to see the release of Eat a peach album
I was in 10th grade in 1970 when I first discovered the Allman Brothers. To this day I never get sick of hearing Dickie Betts playing those beautiful notes. Greg Allman is quoted as saying "That Clapton fella's pretty good but he ain't no Dickie Betts"
Blue Sky is like food for a starving soul. I could listen for hours and never get tired of it. So much talent. So terrible to lose Duane and Barry so young. So much goodness that we will never have. Eat a peach for peace!
Betts masterpiece. Duane with the first lead and Betts with the second. No matter what my state of mind this song always makes me happy.
Do you think Duane is playing slide or finger style ?
@@DARKSIDEOFURANUS finger style
Allman Bros never disappoint...best live shows ever!
Jack Daniels took hold of me at the Fox Theater during David Allen Coe opening for them and I don't remember the rest🤪
@@karenrogers7494 The Fox is one of my favorite places...it's so beautiful!
Yup! Saw them in the early 90s, and they played for almost three hours.
FACTS
Well said! I graduated from High Schoo in 77'. There were so many great bands in those times that we kinda took it for granted.
Now that I watch these reactions I'm truly getting a sense of how blessed I've been growing up with all this classic music. Thank you!
Sometimes I can't believe the bounty we had - all in real time !!!
I gradusated in 78...Grew up on Southern rock while learning guitar
Dickey Betts wrote and sang this great old song, he and the legendary Duane Allman on dual guitar solos. So much of their music served as the soundtrack to my youth 🎼
The great Duane Allmans last great guitar solos...we lost him shortly before it's release..he and Dickey Betts together on this..masterpiece
I remember buying this album and playing it on my parents console stereo in the living room. My mom loved this song, brings back some great memories.
The 60s and 70s exemplified freedom of expression musically
My brother went off to college near Macon, GA. In 1971. I was 13 and when he came home, it was the first time I heard the Allman Brothers Band, I was forever hooked on their music!
Southern rock...heaven....the foundations built by Black American country, r&b and blues artists made this magic possible.
Big part of the soundtrack of my life! Being a southerner, the ABB was also a great source of pride for us! Blue Sky and Jessica ALWAYS put a smile on my face!!
I envy the drummer. He got to sit there keeping perfect beat and seeing and hearing all this greatness happening around him. I imagine him at the end of the song just throwing down his sticks and congratulating everyone.
DrummerS. Two of 'em.
"Blue Sky" is a masterpiece, just as you said.
And you are spot on -- the 70's are the best decade of popular music.
I was 13 when this song hit the radio waves.
Blew us all away. The Allman Brothers Band is one that can truly be labeled as under-appreciated. They are loaded with hits.
Born in 1960 I was a child/teen in the 70s...these gems swirled around us. We were in the sauce all the time.
Without a doubt, the 70s had so much great iconic music. It was playing on one radio station to the next and great concerts to go along with it!
and concerts were so cheap !!
Statesboro Blues , Whipping Post, Not my Cross to Bear , Soulshine , all
Featuring the Greg Allmans Blues vocals along with incredible guitarist
Tee needs to react to Wilson Pickett's version of Hey Jude, Duane talked Wilson in to doing it over lunch, best cover ever and was recorded while the Beatles version was still #1
It's one of my VERY VERY favorite songs ever.
Your right it is a master piece I was 13 in 1973 and this record started it all and reminds of those daysthankyou

Beautiful song, brightens my day whenever I here it. 70's music is awesome, I grew up then and the bar was high in all genre's.
Countless times this song has pulled me thru thick & thin times. Partied & play golf with Dickey many off times! RIP brother! Will surely be missed
I saw them at Jacksonville State (Alabama) in 1969 when I was 19. I had never heard of them at the time. There were only about 100 people in the crowd and we were all crowded around the stage digging this new sound.

I grew up with this music - and after 50 years, it still plays like the early days. It is the best anti-depressant you can find
You are 100% correct! No other decade did it like the 70’s! The music of that decade will never be matched!
Do more research .

You are 💯….70’s music is definitely the best.
It was a definitive time, with experimenting musical genre's and excellent music. So influential.
These are the guys who said 'were going to jam like the band we never got to see' ...in the 70s!!!
Where this song takes me . Summer Vacation in the Catskill mountains of N.Y. during the 70's where my teen years resided . Especially once we were older & ditched the resorts pool for the local & much more fun swimming hole 🙂

This song indeed has been in my life for many years. I know it like the back of my hand and most road trips have to have this playing.
I'm so lucky to have heard this music when it was brand new -- waiting for it on the radio!
Our generation's music won't be duplicated and nothing is as good.
I smoked my first joint to the Allman Bros.

Music changed during that time. New sounds, blended genre's and new talent. Just changed music, broadened what Music was. TY
This song changed everything for me
Just a feel-good song has always made me feel better for 40+ years.
This song reminds me of riding down the road with my parents headed to the mountains in the Blue ridge hills of Virginia. With that country laid back sound.
I've been playing along with this great old song for 50 years.
"Lord you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way... turn your my love your way."

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS

Ha so glad I could bring this into your life, fam. ❤️
What can you say..just awesome 😊❤
what a great tune from Dickey Betts who is still one of the greatest guitar pickers IMO!
Can't go wrong with the Allman Brothers. You're right about the 70's having the best music, but the 60's had some great music too.
Bought this album when it came out when I was in high school.
Loved it all but this is still my favorite track.
Yes, a masterpiece... this solo just takes you away...
Doesn't get any better on a Sunday morning listening to this song.
Back when you went to a concert and it was about the music, not the fluff
Back in high school my brother bought the 8-track tape of this album & played it. I heard it through the wall but this song got my attention. I asked him who it was & bought the album.
This was in the air in those days; everywhere. You got high just from breathing the air back then.
Could possibly be the most happiest song ever next to ELO's Mr Blue sky it's really close. Seriously happy vibrations . Try Melissa from that album, will not disappoint.
I had an old Chevy Camaro RS Convertible. The morning i got the car, i remember specifically this song as the first song i heard on the radio in that car on the Lodge freeway in Detroit. Fun car, great car.
Fun car great song. Had to be 75 or 76.
This was one of my coming of age favorites. Took the time to learn every note of the guitar solo when I was 15. Thanks.
One of the last songs Duane Allman played on from this album before his accident. They played it a few times live, but he didn't live to see the release of Eat a peach album
Brings back high-school memories 😅😊
This was one fine song. Gotta agree with one of the other viewers, this is food for the soul
The music today has no spirit; this is why this music touches all of us.
Love me some Allman Brothers. However for me 1967- 1972 were the best years.
Top level song. So perfect.
Your comments nailed it
I was in 10th grade in 1970 when I first discovered the Allman Brothers. To this day I never get sick of hearing Dickie Betts playing those beautiful notes. Greg Allman is quoted as saying "That Clapton fella's pretty good but he ain't no Dickie Betts"
Dreams is my favorite from the Allman Brothers. Thanks for the great video!
I agree! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
(You have fantastic perspective. You look young, and it's great to interpret that you appreciating an era, and a musical generation, gone.)
Yes a masterpiece indeed.
Best rock...swing jazz had a ton of masterpieces .
CANT GO WRONG WITH THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND
