Just another hard hit in a bad, bad, year.

Only one thing to do when that happens brother:

Sorry CPUd, I didn't see this in new posts. I'll ask for a merge.

You live in my head, brother. I just listened to that at 11 on the volume. More in remembrance to come. Asked for thread merge with CPUd's thread.

Greg just Greg......

 

[Danke]

You needed that that extra push over the cliff?

Merged.

Whoops my bad. I think it was Brian4Liberty that was at US Festival.

Yep.

Never saw Greg Allman or Skynyrd. Did see .38 Special and Blackfoot.

YA'LL?

Just a fitting "southern rock" song for one who has passed.

Pinto to a Dodge charger. Sorry you never saw The Allman Brothers or Skynard. No comparison.

On a positive note I can now buy all the albums I wouldn't....

Had 90% vinyl. Left 'em for safe keeping with a friend that wasn't able to keep them safe. I've moved beyond it, more than a decade ago. But, damn I liked my collection.

Both good ones. I've heard an interview with Dickie Bettes were he said he hated "Rambling Man" got so much airplay. Not that it was a bad song. Just that it was such a minor one on the whole. Dickie Bettes stepped up and filled in for Greg's brother Duane. Had he not the band would have splintered. But Greg's voice is the voice of the Allman Brothers.

Greg wasn't just a vocalist. He could hammer a Hammond or any piano...

Saw Skynyrd, missed the Allman Bro's.

Skynard once in the '80's. Allman's in the '90's. I was never a concert kinda guy. Both shows were great.

Saw Skynyrd in their early years, pretty good shit.
