Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks reached the high standard that Duane set. I miss seeing those two playing together on a regular basis.
Caught 13 shows with those guys. Great, great times.
Ain’t nobody better than the Allman Brothers.
Ever hear of johnny winter?
@@nakim55 yep. Great guitarist. Saw him live. Ain’t nobody better than the Allman Brothers.
Gov't Mule, has that Jam/Live play anything. All from the Grateful Dead, with the live jamming.
theres is no best, only your favorite.
@@nakim55 the guitarist they usurped the headline from at filmore east? 😉
"That band was at one time the best that America had to offer" .. So true
The Band
Yes and Lynyrd Skynyrd
And they're still the Best! .and I'm a Stones girl ....
Amen
I've only just found within the last year the Allman Brothers Band. My mind has subsequently been blown and pleased. These guys were masters of their artistry.
That’s wonderful. I’m 43 years old, and my earliest musical memories involve The Allman Brothers. I was literally raised on them. I have ex-girlfriends (plural) that have told me “the thing I remember most about you is listening to ‘Blue Sky’ and smoking a joint on a sunny afternoon…”. I actually consider that a point of pride, even though I no longer partake in any mind-altering substances. They just don’t make music like this anymore!
I live in Statesboro Ga. I know you know the song Staesboro blues. It was written and performed by a blues musician from statesboro. His name was blind willie mctell. The Allmans covered it. Great band. We play allmans all the time . Great to know one of the best bands in the world lived close.
@@aaronbickford8725 I'm 40. Thnx for sharing this
@@stargazer4625 awesome!!!! Thnx SG
It's a deep rabbit hole! Enjoy the the journey.
Im 63 years old and been playing guitar since 1972.At 12 years old I played my guitar listening to the Allman brothers band everyday after school, trying to learn there songs.They was my favorite band. ever, and my favorite band now at 63. I learned a lot of there songs and guitar riffs and solos.But I am still learning. I've spent most of my life studying and practicing the Allman brothers music and still dont have everything right, maybe I wasnt cut out to be a guitar player, but its been a lot of fun trying. Long live the Greatest band ever. There music will never be forgotten or die.
👍🎸😎
My favorite American Band also
Fact. Im same. I still not mastered them all. 🎸 🎸 🍄
I applaud you, and am jealous at the same time….
I bet you sound better than you give yourself credit.. Duane Allman and the great Dickey Betts will always be known as 2 of the best guitar player in the world.. Alan Collins one of the original guitar players of Lynyrd Skynyrd was one bad dude as well..alot of people may not know that but he could play his ass off..i bet you sound pretty good yourself..
Duane and Dickey - both such world-class players and creative geniuses. Both had guitar playing styles uniquely their own, and neither can be replicated.
I agree. It was just the Greg Allman band after they were gone
...I WROTE a reply, but it's YOUR loss, not mine...
Sadly, Dickey has just joined Duane in rock 'n roll heaven. May they both trade leads in peace!
One of the best bands to ever grace our world.
Tears, brother all I got. PURE&SALTY IN TEXAS
Rest easy Dickey! The road goes on forever.........
I grew up with this music, when Duane Croaked from his motorcycle accident I was a Teenager.
Greg grabbed the torch and came into his own as his other band mates did as well.
Duane was a true genius.
*Gregg and Berry
Dickey grabbed it more so
I am sure Duane wanted the group to go on without him.
There always was the Allman brothers but with Dickey Betts there was The Allman Brothers Band. Upon his death Duane became the best slide guitarist ever and still is on the that list but that is death for you. Similar to suddenly Robbie Robertson is suddenly alive while The Band existed without him and sang songs Robbie claimed he wrote but I don't believe it for a minute. Robbie never toured solo with an acoustic like all singer/songwriters do. His acting as though he were the conductor with a baton during the Last Waltz and accusing the others of being dead-end junkies that he cured is pure BS. I knew Rick Danko and he could play circles around Robbie and was not a junkie.
I was 11
I grew up listening to these guys, and will still be listening until my last day. Amazing band, the one and only ❤
Until today the Allman Brothers Band are still my favorite band of all times. I'm a music fan since ages and have seen and heard many gems throughout my time but no one can keep up with the ABB
In 1969, in St Petersburg, FL, my Band "Skunk Junction" opened for the Allman Bros. Band. We sat backstage before the show and passed around a couple of joints and shared road stories. That night was inspirational for me beyond anything before or since. They were SO good and SO tight, and SO seriously INTO what they were doing, that I took my own Music much more seriously from that night on. When Duane died, I felt like I had lost a personal friend. Then again, when Berry died. I KNEW that they would continue. That was not just what they did, it was WHO they WERE. I still feel a personal loss over Gregg and Butch.
A bond was formed that night that has never disappeared. I wish Dicky and Jaimoe all the best.
Respect to your comment. I saw them in 90 the first time when I was 20. Don't have words for the impact. They became the gold standard after that. You're So right !! ......So into what they were doing....
@@turkeeg7644 Yes, and that intensity still inspires my playing to this day. If you are interested, here is one of my songs on which I'm playing every instrument, recorded in '07. ua-cam.com/video/yj15dgNGHgA/v-deo.html
I met Duane, Greg and the rest of the band on a gig I did with them on the same bill with Chuck Berry who I played drums for in May of 1971 in Chapel Hill NC. I still hold the Allman Brothers in the highest regard and listen to their music these many years later having seen them play many gigs live with Duane back in the day.
@@scottmoyer1357 Cool. As much as I listen to them now, which is still a LOT, there is nothing like the energy of their live shows.
As do I...and I'm 73 years YOUNG ! !
...that's all...
Gregg lived behind me in Richmond Hill,GA. We used to see him riding his bike and driving his corvette around. Got to get a signed photo by him which I treasure. Nice guy but kept to himself when he was home. Loved seeing him out and about driving.
ABB was about the music. That's why we're still into them.
Absolutely one of my favorite bands.
Mine Toooo
Everytime I ride my Harley I think of Duane..and sometimes I Eat A Peach 🍑 ride on Rock on brothers. Life goes by like falling rain.
A very well done video about a group of people who deserve every accolade they have received. I'm 65 and I will go to my grave wondering what could have been if Duane had not got on that bike that day.
I was the flower girl in the early 70s ... I swear my baby sitter Kathy married Greg Allman, and I've never been told otherwise! lol
Dickey Betts is one of the most innovative and melodic guitarists ever . During Duane Allman time , Betts was the perfect foil and after Duane’s demise , he stepped up his act and came up with classic compositions like Blue sky, Rambling man and Jessica . He was a good singer and brought a country rock touch which added variety to the band sound in addition to the blues / soul of Gregg Allman. Chuck Lavel was phenomenal on keyboards
Allman Brothers Band are close to an orchestra, they are all so talented and tight it's mind boggling when you realize Duane is playing this and Dickey's playing something else and it sounds so great
Can never forget who you are. Who you are there you are. Be yourself always
So glad my life begin with my dad playing Allman Brothers at filmore east album all the time. Huge influence on me as a guitarist who can’t shake my allman Brother style of songwriter and performing
Takes me back to my biker days! Long live Harleys and the Allman brothers!
I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me but, I think think this documentary is short changing Dickey Betts. As a kid in the early 70s I can tell you that once Duane and Berry had died, that Dickey was the heart, soul, and glue that keep this band together. Had it not been for Dickey's effort then (and until the first breakup) this band would fallen apart very quickly and within a few years no one would have even remembered who they were. Dickey Betts is one of the most important musicians in the history of Rock and Roll. It's very hard to over estimate his importance.
I agree Barry
My buddy was a roadie for them in the 1990s so I got to go backstage and hang out with them a few times. DIckey was basically unapproachable at the time but the rest of them were cool. Thing is, Dickey is the one I idolize the most. I play PRS cause DIckey started playing them in the 1990s...
Dicky was probably a bit preoccupied with child support payments. I think he’s on marriage #6 now.
I grew up in Florida. I remember seeing them in a bar in Pensacola in 1968..I’ve followed them for over 50 yrs now. I’ve had a good music career starting in 1970 and now own my on studio. I do believe that the double LP at Filmore is the best album ever recorded! Thanks to Warren and Derek that keeps this music going today!. We have a cover band out of here in Nashville that plays all the early Filmore songs and they are very good. As a lifelong musician The music has gone to shit.. the disco, all synth, bubble gum music and mostly all electronic crap that’s taken over the airwaves, I wish we were back in 1968…….. a great film about ABB!❤️❤️
Duwane had a gift for music that’s what’s special he picked each member to put it together
I love ABB and they just so happened to play a huge part in birthing my favorite band lol. RIP Duane, Gregg, Berry, Butch, Lamar, Woody & anyone else i missed
At 16 i heard Fillmore for the very first time. As a beginning guitarist i now knew that tone and phrasing were something to perfect
the allmans bros story is one of survival and perseverance. few bands have a story like theirs.
Tell that to Scooter.
@@MaTTheWish they lived past the addiction and litigation is my point
@@plasteredbastard good point..
The early days of The Allmans was a great time to be young. I have memories of them in Piedmont Park in Atlanta. I saw Duane just walking around, talking to people. No ego just one of us. RIP Duane, Berry, Butch and Greg you brought us so much joy!
Una de las mejores bandas de rock de todos los tiempos. Muchas Gracias por este homenaja a The Allman Brothers Band.
u said it brother
Dickey Betts is somehow extremely underrated
What?
Are you out of your mind?
Nobody who knows Betts underrated him.
I once saw him with Great Southern and the crowd went crazy.
Also must read the underrated nonsense referring to Pau Kossoff.
All the great guitar players appreciated Koss.
I recall exactly what intersection I was at when I heard about his death on the radio. I can’t recall what car I was driving but exactly where I was. The ‘Live’ album I was the first Allman Bros album I bought
I grew up also with the Allmans , they had a great affect on my growing up. Their music just went straight to my soul, I even moved to Daytona Beach in the 70s , there I was living by the beach, listening to Gregg and seeing him around town now and then. Still sentimental when I listen to them, that was some great music, and still is.
No one had used the term Southern Rock in 1969. Even though I was 21 in 1971 I hadn’t yet really found the Allman Bros, yet. Live at Filmore East album woke me up to their greatness. In Memory of Elizabeth Reed is still an all time favorite
Mine too. Great version at The Fillmore.
I remember I had a band in 1975 when I was living in Dakar, Senegal, with my brother. We picked "In Memory Of . . ." and had a show at the biggest auditorium in the city . . . they were blown away, but also perplexed. What was this half-white/half-African band doing playing this strange instrumental music?
And in 1972 or so I was listening to the Allmans 24/7 . . . god I feel old.
I was at that concert and it was fantastic. How fortunate I have been!
@@tundrawomansays694 You were at my concert??
Seen them in concert only 9 times. Not nearly enough!!
Never enough…
Despite the low opinion expressed in the documentary, Win Lose or Draw, in my opinion is one of their best. I love every track of that album.
David Gilmore and Duane Allman are the best slide guitar. I've been greatly blessed just to hear both of them. My lord the best music ever played. RIP GREG*DUANE Togather again
Duane and Dicks guitar sound a game changer , great lost ,hopefully Derek will continue the legacy of the sound of the Allman Bros. Band
Such an excellent portrayal of one of the greatest bands to come out of the 70s. Great job and thank you!
Tragic things and they held onto their dreams. I saw the Allman brothers years ago with Butch and Warren . I got to see Greg play Melissa it just blew Me away.
The Allman Brothers Band did NOT consider themselves “Southern Rock.” In fact, they disliked being labeled as that. Skynyrd, .38 Special, Molly Hatchet, Charlie Daniels Band, The Outlaws … those were “Southern Rock Bands.” The ABB was too diverse to be labeled as anything but what they were: The Allman Brothers Band.
Well said👍
Yes, absolute agreed.
I never called the ABB a southern rock band because I don' t like all these f..... Dixie redneck bands supported this bloody racist George Wallace.
Agreed. In a class all by themselves
Some of the others you mentioned didn't like the label "southern rock", either. Lynyrd Skynyrd just thought of themselves as a more "authentic" version of blues-based British rock because they were from the roots of what the Stones, Ten Years After, Fleetwood Mac, etc were imitating , and Molly Hatchet thought of themselves as competing with Judas Priest on a "Metal" level
@@impalaman9707 Maybe Skynyrd thought that, but they were wrong. They basically created the genre known as Southern Rock, and many followed. I’m not knocking them; I’m just sayin’. Putting them in any other bag would be folly.
As a boomer, was so into this band mid-70’s … but my gypsy life lost track of them … so thank you for this excellent documentary as I had no idea. Incredible story!
Im a huge Skynyrd fan and know they paved the way and tought ronnie the work ethic needed...480+shows from 73 to77 garys slide given to him by Dwayne ronnie always dedicated freebird to him
They’re my favorite bands!
I guess I was a LITTLE late to the Allmans.
I grew up in the 70's, but my bands were The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and The Who.
I discovered the Allman Brothers when Gregg made his comeback in the 80's with "I'm No Angel."
At the same time, I was now into Stevie Ray Vaughan and Clapton had just released "Journeyman."
So, I was basically listening to The Allmans, Stevie and Eric.
I've been listening to that genre ever since.
Just gotta have that soulful spirit sound to get me off.
Nothing like Duane and Dickey's sweet, beautiful sound with Gregg's powerful voice layered on top.
Then they pushed me into The Tedeschi Trucks band.
Best damn band in the business today.
Then they got me into Doyle Bramhall II. Doyle's got one of the best voices ever. Not to mention his great guitar work.
One of the best live bands I've ever seen. Aside from Filmore East, "First Set" and "Second Set" are still my two favorite live albums from the 1990s shows.
In the mid-80's I got to see the Gregg Allman Band and the Dickey Betts Band on the same bill at a club called Toad's Place in New Haven, CT. Of course, after both bands did there shows, they came together to do a few Allman Bros tunes that brought down the house. I don't remember much about the show beyond the basic contours, but I distinctly remember thinking how evolved Gregg's band sounded. He was not content to remain in the 70's, but had incorporated a more modern sound, all on a foundation of the classic Allman Bros. While there is much dissing of 80's music, there were many bands at the height of their creativity (including guitarists) such as early U2, Fripp and Adrian Belew, Rober Cray, Joe Jackson, Talking Heads, etc. I was looking for new sounds and musical directions and Gregg's band delivered for sure. Great musicians making timeless music.
On a side note, I didn't realize Derek Trucks was playing with the big boys at age 11. Wow, what a talent. Love his guitar playing...
Eat a Peach, Duane on slide, Fillmore Live, Rambling Man, Brothers and Sisters, some stunning tragedies, are number one influences in my musical days, my days, still. Yet reborn, and forward to Hitting the Note, and bliss returns for this man. Dickey Betts and Duane, remarkable, bliss, only Wood and Richards compete. The fabulous Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks, remarkable and bliss, and that slide to mesmerize. From start to finish I have done this journey, as with the Stones, and seminal influences in my guitars-but I do not cover, deciding long ago, that I will but stand back and pay my respects to masters I have no intention of trying to better. The fabulous drum of Butch Trucks is bliss. RIP Gregg, RIP Butch. You will be missed.
Part of the soundtrack to my movie called life. They've pulled me thru and made good time great. Can't thank them enough.🙏🏼🤙👊
I've seen Allman Bros live, astonishing how different their live sound is, they can sort of be labeled a jam band, but they're much , much more , as the man said, they could play & hang with anyone musically...
I was shocked how many Dead Heads + hippie type folks were in attendance, anf actually following them around (Jerry Garcia has recently passed) but ALSO Blue Grass aficionados, Blues enthusiasts,
Etc., such a diverse crowd....
But of course, you had to factor in that a little band called Lynyrd Skynyrd had preceded the Allmans performance with one of their own, +(yep!) What a show!!
Very well done and thorough exploration of the parts of the ABB story that rarely have been talked about. I’m glad I found this.
I remember those years so vividly, I lived on the Allman Brothers farm near Juliette Georgia with Dickey and Sandy and baby Jessica and papa Harold a year after Diane's wreck and I was at Berry Oakley's funeral in macon, very awesome and magical times.
Really? How was that time? I used to love them back in the 90s and in the 2000s every band I was in I made them play a Allman bro tune
@@shable1436 it was great, me and Dickey would leave the farm around 10 pm headed to Macon and Capricorn studio, they were laying down tracks for the brothers and sisters album, I would head over to Grants Lounge where a lot of bands would play, Marshall Tucker was playing there when Phil walden came and listened to them play and signed them to a contract with Capricorn, a lot of good music came through Macon in those years.
I saw them in 1972 in Las Cruces NM definitely the best jamming concert ever.
It's a shame that in nearly 2 hours this film couldn't find a single word to say about Jack Pearson, an absolute genius of a guitar player and the guy who actually replaced Dickey Betts before Derek Trucks.
For me, Jack is as the most close to tone as Duane was.
Best live album of all time.
Best American band to exist and you can’t convince me otherwise
Long time favorite along with Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker…. Way outstanding generators of the genre.
I was raised to understand the ABB was the best band of all time.
You were raised right. Cheers
Great documentary. Saw them many times beginning in the late 90's. Those shows turned everything I thought about music on it's head. They are by far my all time favorite group in the many forms they took on, and heavily influenced the way I play/ed. 🎸🎶🎼🎵🎸
I think that blue sky solo,might be my favorite ever.made me want to play guitar
I think O’teil Burbridge deserved at least an honorable mention here …I mean,he did play bass with them for 12 years and is arguably one of the best musicians on planet earth?
"Laid Back" is my favorite album of all time...I was lucky to play his tribute concert at BB KIng's NYC with the musician children of some ABB members and a bunch of special guest after he passed...and did some numbers from the record...it's a sonically great album as well as all the obvious stuff(song writing/musicianship etc)....a must own album.
This was fantastic. The Allman Bros are a legacy and great unique music. Loved then for decades.
Great interview. I love how Jeff just laid out the Tower on West End thought process.
Thats truth in craft.
Stating how to stay current with trends when the entire session world says never look back. How do you not look at today? Without looking back at least as long as the time to record and release a record...
Much respect!
Duane Allman played on Layla by Eric Clapton
Very impressive;, very well done, moving ending; t/y for it.
Signed,
A half century Allman Brothers Band fan. Bravo.
Thank you so much for this excellent history. I was a teenager from the early cream days and so much came back to me. This was a wonderful experience! Thanks so much.
I still miss Duane ALLMAN! 🍑🍄❤️🎶
LET THE WORLD 🌎 MUSIC 🎶PLAY ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND FOREVER 🎤🎸🎤🎹🎤🎸🎤🎸🎤🥁🎤🥁 Thank you for sharing your music🎶Brother Frankie Romero GOD BLESS 🇺🇸🌎✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍👊👊👊
I would call them a rock band. There were so many great ones in the 70s
Beautiful documentary I enjoyed it so much, thank you!!
win, lose or draw holds up pretty well, listening to it out of the context of the year of its release.Especially High falls, but also the title track, can't lose what you never had & nevertheless are still great tracks.
Great Documentary of the greatest band ever formed. Thanks. gotta go play some guitar now.😎🍄
Fantastic presentation. Perfectly done.
ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND GENIUSZ GENIUSZ GENIUSZ nad GENIUSZAMI KOSMOS KOCHANI na zawsze dziękuję BOGU za wszystko dziękuję BARDZO
That moment Derek stepped in❤
Miss these guys.
The first half of the lead guitar in blue sky is Dwayne, then harmony from both, then Dickie plays yhe second half 🎸🎶🎸
My all time super deluxe go to band!!! GBNF Duane, Gregg, Berry, Woody, Butch and Dan.
Great documentary. Love ABB.
An amazing documentary
kudos to Amplified. most channel skip the lousy albums. Reach for the sky, but then Brothers of the Road. Its funny being reminded of those songs that we tried to give a chance to
I would include " Day's of Future Past" by the Moody Blues released in 1967 as an early rock concept album. Thanks for your high quality videos
Great stuff thanks
Great job on this documentary !!
la mejor banda de la historia
I seem to be at odds with most people when in comes to Win Lose Or Draw. I happen to think it`s a great album. One mentioned High Falls in this documentary as a high point of the album, and I agree. But I seem to be alone in thinking that Just Another Love Song, and Louisiana Lou And Three Card Monty John are great songs. In my opinion they are the two most underrated songs in the history of the Allman Brothers.
How sad, I really feel for his family and friends, fans and bikers. I've been lucky so far on my bikes but I totally understand how he would love riding bikes as it's addictive.
Just lost Dickey. Rode the bus in 91 with my bassist Mondo, lost track of you brother
I know I’m stubborn and nearsighted, the band died when Duane died. The music they interpreted and performed during the three nights at Fillmore East was that good.
I would see them in live oak Florida for almond fest with the Doobies Three day jam fest.most epic time! Derek trucks blew it up! Hell they all blew it up! What a blessing
Saw Allman Brothers at Gilmore West.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤❤
I'm Luthier and "forced" to like All music that I hear, but the Allman Bros. are still the peak of the played music !!
With the passing of Dickey Betts, this leaves only drummer Jai Johanny ("Jaimoe") Johanson among the founding members of this wonderful band.
If ANYBODY deserved to be in an updated Allman Bros, it was Warren Haynes. He is also the real deal.
Dickey had a major alcohol problem for decades.
And crack
duane, they broke the mold with him so to speak
Great sounding band,,,but definitely DOPE heads,
it’s aSad story that demonstrates the power of illegal drugs on how they can destroy the American Dream i’m nearly 60 years old and they will always remain of of my favorite bands of all times i agree that Dickey did a fabulous job of keeping the band going without Duane yet IMO Duane Allman was the true magic of the band
Nobody will ever beat the Allman brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd!!! If you think differently you didn't grow up in the 60s and 70s!!!!
Love them both ❤
🙏RIP DUANE AND GREG🙏
