1. The Allmans were my 2nd concert

I think it was early 71, I was almost 14.

Duane died that fall.

2. Duane, even at his young age, was one of the all-time greats

I wish I had more music to know him by.

I posted this song because it fits the way I've been feeling lately. That chorus, I mean, just sums it up really nice. That's also a killer jam. It was recorded at the Fillmore, but I don't think it's the famous, live album version.

4. He was a guitar God!

How can someone so young be so freakin' amazing!!

9. Have you ever heard the Duane Allman Anthologies?

Mostly his session work (his solo on Boz Scaggs "Can You Loan Me A Dime" is breathtaking") and some ABB outakes. Great stuff and well worth a listen. But he owns IMHO, the Layla album out from under Clapton.

3. Ah, Southern-fried Prog Blues.

Something for everyone.

10. Not so much. n/t

5. Good Lord I feel like I'm dying...

Zappa did a nice straightforward cover of it, too...

6. relate.

I can.

7. I figured out the date.

The Allman brothers at the Eastown Theater in Detroit, February 27 1971. This was about a month before the Fillmore concerts.

Duane was by far the best guitarist I ever saw. And I saw Jeff Beck, Carlos Santana, Muddy Waters, Clapton, SRV, Pete Townshend, Buddy Guy, Keith Richards, Robbie Robertson and Robin Trower.

On edit: minor spelling error.

8. I appreciate that, Mendocino
