The Allman brothers band ~ High falls

[808Tunahed]

From 1975's "Win, Lose, Or Draw", longest studio track they recorded at 14.28. Blows Me Away EVERYTIME! Named after a park in Macon, GA where they played as kids

[bigdaveonbass]

No one writes more majestic instrumentals than Dickey Betts. This song soars!

AWESOME

[naygeeyo]

Is this Chuck Leavell playing the ivories?

[emptypages1970]

Another stunning instrumental by the allmans! Makes todays music sound inept.

The allmans are relativly unknown in britain,although 'jessica' was used as the theme to a very successful tv show about driving called top gear.

fuckin' A

[OFFENDERRUEB]

JESUS HATED BALD PUSSY

[MrAbbfan]

I don't know if this is as good as Liz Reed but it is awful close!!!

[severalseasons]

This shows, among other things, the greatness of  Dickie Betts..The Allman Bros. are still very good, and Derek Trucks is fantastic, however, they are missing Dickie Betts....

[karlmoles65]

This song rivals Elizabeth Reed for greatness

[LanceHelmut]

an overlooked allman bros. gem

[211bill]

The Allman Brothers Band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995

[ageshero]

This song is pure cool. haha.

[karlmoles65]

This song very nearly rivals In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed

[skimmelgem]

A little history.... This song has always appeared to be about the State Park outside Macon,GA;but don't quote me on it ,because I dont really know.Maybe D.Betts had an experience there at some time??? It is still one of my favorites from the Allman Bros. collections!!!

[harryr3ful]

Betts sure could write some instrumentals

[ibseric]

Dickey was no Duane, but he'll likely admit that to this day. He kept the band alive and is a very innovative and influential guitarist in his own right. If Dickey doesn't step up after Duane and Berry die, it's pretty much over.

[SmokinStubs]

Wow, were you part of the band Francesco? What a Bold Thing.

[nuovestagioni]

@SmokinStubs Nooo! Maybe, I'm just a fan. Ciao

Francesco

[SmokinStubs]

@nuovestagioni - LOL, I was just being a buzzed up smart ass because of your banner. Otherwise its a killer video.

[karlmoles65]

The Allmans get it absolutely right. The music flows, just like the water over a high falls.

[Bopalena]

Purty, ain't it?

[BullCricket75]

even my dog loves this jam! no denying greatness ;)

[caryzia]

good pics too man...Thanks...

a real gem ~ masterpiece!

[slgordon3]

What an amazing song. I always loved seeing it live when Dicky was still with the band.

[Tranqlnatr]

One of my favorites.

[glasshammer52]

My fave AB song. And that's saying a lot. Thanks.

[napalmvoododaddy]

what !!! did i see that right ? "hieronomy" says the tempo is too fast !! hahahahahahaha ! wow ! un-be-fuckin-lievable !!! just un-be-fuckin-lievable man !!!!! hahahahaha ! !!

[renaissancewm2000]

I fell in love with this song 30 years ago, and it still gives me a rush <3

[nuovestagioni]

@renaissancewm2000 An important piece or a 'forgotten. Is a pleasure to listen to it again! Ciao!

Francesco

[renaissancewm2000]

@renaissancewm2000 I believe the other side was Sweet Mama, I also loved that song, but I can find only a cover..does anyone have it?

[renaissancewm2000]

@renaissancewm2000 I believe the other side was Sweet Mama, I also loved that song, but I can find only a cover..does anyone have it?

Also the song Nancy, written by Dickie Betts, I would love to hear.

[pectenhead]

@renaissancewm2000 Amen to that...one of my all-time favorites by ABB (or anyone)

[caryzia]

@renaissancewm2000  Oh Yeah.

[mottledbrain]

I went out and bought this album when it came out just for this one song.

The best they ever did in my opinion.

[nuovestagioni]

@mottledbrain You did a great thing! Ciao

Francesco

[bkrealtypro]

@mottledbrain I agree. There is nothing in this world better than peaking on an eighth seeing this 15 mins of bliss live. Nothing! Oh and I'm a big head so that's saying a lot.

[jkbiker1]

they are so tight on this song makes me wonder how meany times they played it to get here.

[hieronomy]

tempo is too fast

[dominos1579]

very nice!!

[2faatcaats]

Thank you for posting this souflul tune. Using the words from a previous poster, it does put me in a musical trance. ......aaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuu!!!!

I even had downloaded the version that was cut in half, as I really wanted it on my ipod. Now I can pass out listening to this, in a hammock, while a cool breeze floats thru the afternoon sun.

[nuovestagioni]

@2faatcaats Thank to you! Great music, yes yes! Ciao

Francesco -Italy-

[markinlc]

Musica Bellisima! Awesome! My favorite Allman Bros song- all 14 minutes of it. Thanks for Posting. After this listen to the Freddy Jones Band Daydream song (the extended version). You'll fall into a musical trance... Happy New Year 2011 from San Diego, California!

[nuovestagioni]

@markinlc Happy New Year to you!!! Ciao

Francesco - Italy

[2faatcaats]

@markinlc I feel the same way about this song. I went to ck out 'In a Daydream', and I recognized it from years ago. Thnx for reintroducing me to an old 'friend'. For me that song is a happy, feel-good song, while the Allman Bros' one is one to lay down and just let the music take you in.

[napalmvoododaddy]

i love this one. i do allman brothers covers. along with skynyrd and many others. but this one is special to me. it takes me to the days when i'd ride a cow 1000 ltd at 160 mph on the highways. this song, the never ending highway, and a girl always waiting for me.

[jlr41877]

Thanks ,,Much Thanks To Who Posted This ,,Thank You So Much !!!!

[nuovestagioni]

@jlr41877 I am happy to know that there are people like you who appreciate this kind of music! Ciao

Francesco

[kumar107]

Nice memories...

[ukkfayooyay]

My favorite Allman Brothers tune. Thank you.

[McQ109]

Southern rock ? you can't put spirit and feelings in a box

[McQ109]

Who need lyrics 

[tonfoi]

Best Betts composition !

[Skyman46]

Nicely done, thank you...I'm not sure Skynyrd and Uriah Heep belonged in the video sequence but okay. Such a soothing and serene piece of musical history by Dickey Betts and The Brothers.
