  • Why must you all keep criticizing this video? I have not said that it was Duane doing this picking. Like I said to one individual, "I could have put a picture of Jesus or Elvis with this tune, but it does not mean that they played it". It is the internet people... get over it!!

      My father was in a coma for 3 days before he died. I happened to be there at the senior home that day (April 2000). Somehow I knew he was going, so I just said a prayer to Jesus to take him. Seconds later he quit breathing. I felt a kind of warmth go through me. I think this was my Dad's spirit telling me it's ok son. Anyway that was almost 22 years ago. When I read comments like yours I know you felt the same thing I did. Thanks.

    I have always loved Duane Allman's beautiful music. Today is the 1st time I've heard him do 'Amazing Grace'. I've cried all the way thru it. This will bring you to your knees. It will be the last song played at my funeral, before they put me in the ground. The most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard.

    Amazing grace
    how sweet the sound
    That saved a wretch like me
    I once was lost
    but now am found
    Was blind but now I see
    'Twas grace that taught
    my heart to fear
    And grace my fears relieved
    How precious did
    that grace appear
    The hour I first believed
    Through many dangers
    toils and snares
    I have already come
    'Tis grace hath brought me
    safe thus far
    And grace will lead me home.
    The Lord has
    promised good to me,
    His Word my hope secures
    He will my shield
    and portion be
    As long as life endures.
    Yes,when this heart
    and flesh shall fail
    And mortal life shall cease
    I shall possess within the vail
    A life of joy and peace
    The earth shall soon
    dissolve like snow
    The sun forbear to shine
    But God, Who
    called me here below
    Will be forever mine
    When we've been there
    ten thousand years
    Bright shining as the sun
    We've no less days
    to sing God's praise
    Than when we'd first begun

    Just beautiful! My favorite guitarist Skydog playing my mother's favorite religious song. She requested to have this song played at her funeral. She passed in 2014 and it was played as she requested. I don't believe she ever heard Skydog playing it, but would have loved it. God bless them both, RIP.

      Allman brother's Live at Fillmore East. By the way Derrick is D. Trucks....Tedeschi Trucks band. Sorry but i think you are the only one who stated it wasn't his song. Yes it was not him playing an John Newton wrote tbe lyrics 1779 an i don't think he minds at all. I am just an old drummer from Arkansas who got to see ABB mlnus one. Duane had died the year before. They were great but you could feel their sadness. RIP Brother Duane "Skydog" Allman. Aint but one way out!!

    God will always be good to those that accept him into their life's, No questions! I visited the Gravesites yesterday 01/08/2022 of Duane, Gregg, Berry and Butch. I sat down on the steps there and just reminisced of my childhood while I listened to "Dreams" playing on my phone. This song is another small example of Duane's talent that was given to him from our Lord Jesus Christ, son of God. Today, I pray for you, to let him speak to you with only your ears. Your life will forever be changed, mine did. Before I left, I strolled over to visited Elizabeth Reed gravesite. What a great Lady and song.
    RIP to all you boys that I got the chance to reminisce with yesterday. I left there and drove a couple of minutes over to H&H Soul food restaurant where Mama Louise used to feed those young musician boys and had me the BEST lunch. All the time I sat there and ate, I couldn't stop looking at all the memorabilia on the walls wondering what a time that all had while being blessed in that building. Amen!

    All Duane wanted to do was play guitar and hang out with musicians, "the cats", as he called them (liner booklet, Anthology of Duane Allman) He was / is an undisputed master guitarist of the "Classic Rock" era, one of my favorites. Now, this gospel piece sounds like a dobro, probably not a steel guitar. The excellent artist playing this number is in the style of Josh Graves, Mike Auldridge, or Jerry Douglas. See them doing "Fireball" on UA-cam. Also see Jerry at his best with Jay Unger playing Big Scioty.
