[uptowntreeefort]

Thx for the great tune...quick Q though: are ya certain that the correct date is posted for this one? I have the exact version on ABB's Wipe The Windows, Check The Oil, Dollar Gas live compilation, and think it may credit this tune to a different gig. Gotta dig it outta the attic and solve this one haha. Stay cool.

im 54 yrs old and this stil makes me cry

As the first note hits from a classic ABB song, you can just feel the blues dripping off it like molasses and honey dripping of a warm and tasty biscuit just out of the oven. Yum.

@TheEvilflea

[Treddick88]

The most underrated band of all time! The allman bros. should be a subject in school lol

[Toraboramusic]

Just Sheer beauty in every note...

[petekt215]

Phenomenal!

[gimmeshelter1969]

Had me a time machine I'd immediately set it to 12-31-72 New Orleans and put it into an endless loop...

[wichitarick]

When they ask me why? my hair is long and still tap my toe ! this will be my answer!As I pick myself yet another time by the boot straps I need a reminder and this time this one is it! as WE raise our children ,raise them well and yes THEY will know ! PEACE Rick Wichita Ks. Via western slope Rocky Mts.

This was New Years Eve 1972. It is Betts on slide. Brothers played many News Years Eve concerts at A Warehouse in NOLA. Duane played at the 1971 concert. It's my poster shown with this video from the 1972 concert. Vince Vance & Valients also played (a local NOLA 50s act; like Sha-Na-Na). There is a State of Tennessee sticker on the poster from gas stations that I collected while heading to Smoky Mountains with then girlfriend, now wife 37 yrs. We'd stop for gas in states and pick 'em up.

One of my most favorite concerts from what I can remember lol. Is there anymore of this concert out there? I do remember that we ran R.E.O. Speedwagon off the stage.

[proveyourlove2me]

@diver53lgc ~ Sounds like when I saw the Rolling Stones and Santana..Iggy Pop got boo'd off the stage.

The first live show for me was the Allman Bros., front and center.

[gumbyonacid]

[hershysquirts187]

this shit still blows my mind

[hershysquirts187]

now this is what i'm talking about.

[Treddick88]

Fucking amazing. It doesn't get any better than this live version of this song!

[LuvSilly]

My grieving song for the loss of my father. It still picks me up.

[murphstrings]

if you dig this, search for the out of print vinyl MAR Y SOL festival, double album. theres a live version of this song on there, same time period. lots of other good tunes too, including ELP, nitzinger, cactus, etc.

[allmansrvvegas]

No its Dec. 31,1972.

[nyrangers1954]

this is friday dec 31 1971....not 1972..

berry on bass

[StreeTRacR008]

Amazing, never thought I'd hear an early live version of this gem

[CTiger1207]

who is playing slide on this? It sounds like Duane but he died a year before this....

[botbagel]

@CTiger1207 Now that's a ? friend....Off the cuff, I'm going to say Dickie Betts, but I could be wrong....

[bluesguy0524]

That's Dickey on slide, believe it or not.

[MOSKII58]

@CTiger1207 it's def Dickey, if you have the eat a peach lp this tune 1st appears on it and the credits say Dicky Betts Slide guitar i believe its his 1st tune playing slide

1st new tune after Duane's passing...Gregg had said it seemed like Dickey learned to play almost instantaneously from when they lost Duane.

[FelixAtrox]

Excellent!
