I was talking music with a few coworkers, and one guy said I bet nobody can guess my favorite song. I knew he was from South Carolina so I took a stab at it and said, Blue Sky. You should have seen the look of shock on his face.
Ditto. Live at Fillmore East.
For better or worse has been made famous or tainted by the Movie Goodfella's with a Pink Cadillac and Carbone frozen in a meat truck.
RIP Greg Allman, sound track of my youth, before walkmans's etc their songs ran through my head to keep my pace running in High School.
“No One To Run With” may have been the one song that best combined all of their defining sounds.
Growing up in Southern California- I wonder if Greg Allman knew the Allman Brothers made perfect surf music?
Effing click effing bait effing garbage.
I *HATE* sites that make you reload for every item. Some actually spread individual items over 3 or more clicks. It’s tiresome and greedy (ad revenue uber alles! To Hades with the readers).
I love “Melissa”. The adoration and love is evident from the first bar. That and Whipping Post are phenomenal both from a musical and melodic viewpoint. The lyrics of “post” are pretty heartfelt, too.
A little surprised Melissa didn’t show up here

Seems appropriate
First live concert for me was Frank Zappa and the Mothers at Tully Gym (Florida State campus.) Backup band the Allman Brothers. I was in 8th grade. Very eye opening!
Sorry. I thought I had it set up to show all of them. Must be some crap with pjmedia. They used to be pretty good.

Loved Hatchet! RIP Danny Joe Brown.
Zappa regularly played “Whipping Post” live.
I love “Stormy Monday”.....pure Greg.
No need for you to apologize for the foibles of that website. It was just a general temper tantrum/rant about clickbait. No harm, no foul.
RIP Greg. Hopefully you, Duane and Charles are entertaining the Lord.

Dickie got his act together, but it was hard. They probably saved his life.
