My Dad was the drummer for "Two Guns-Balls Out" a band signed in 1979 by Capricorn Records with the Allman Brothers. Check out their music on youtube if you love classic southern rock n roll!
I have always loved this song. i love the original version by johnson but man this version by the allman brothers is very soul gripping. what a powerful song. i also like the version by delaney and bonnie with duane allman playing his amazing slide guitar. thank god for the blues and the allman brothers band
Fantastic cd, all the members are super talented. I too am really happy to hear about greg having a sucessful surgery. I must say, that if you have lots of money, a transplant is almost always available, but if you don't have money and need a transplant, its' all about a waiting list, which for a working class guy means death.Its' urgently important to donate any life saving organs. Huichol53.......
man im guna spend everyday of my life to learn as much of this music as possible. it hits you way down in the pitt of your stomach like nothing else ive ever felt
Red Dog gave me my first drum stick when I was seven. I was a littile kid in Alexander 4 elementry school, and a kid in my class, his dad was a roadie for the band. Great video!
@jeepndesert You think acknowledging the band is BS? What's your hurry, you got someplace to go? Maybe one day you notice one of these guys playing with someone else and you listen just a bit closer. How else are you going to get educated? On the other hand maybe you're 11 and it hasn't started to sink in yet. That's ok - still no hurry.
Cloudnine9136 I'm Scottish American mixed with Irish Catholic....I also own all the real old delta blues, ever heard John Hammond? How about Johnny winter, Mean town Blues or be careful with a fool? Also try Swing Low by rocco de luca live at Starbucks. He's smokin on slide guitar...Huichol53.......
@bonscott01 Make that 7.....I dunno how anyone can dislike this song whether from the Allman Brothers or from Robert Johnson....both versions are awesome!!
This is my all time favorite song. I love Robert Johnson... And I love the Allman Brothers Band Even more... Where can I purchase this song? It's not on iTunes! WTF? I used to have it on CD and wore it out... This song has gotten me through high and low...
Congratulations Greg Allman on successful liver transplant...
hasis20 just upped a version from a studio album. Check it out under video responses. It has details of recording year and of course title of the album.
Thanks a million bro... This is the best version, and my favorite song of all time. Thank you for the gift IViewMusic, it's a true treasure that penetrated my soul as a musician, a music lover and as a person. I've had a REAL tough time finding it... or the album. Had the original 1991 Cd and wore it out. I can't find a place to purchase it. Any suggestions???
Thanks! It's one of very few uploads from me and I very much enjoy the very positive feedback it receives. Although I can't claim credit for what we see and hear in this video, it's nice to know that there are so many good people who appreciate this music as much as I do.
I'm not American, I'm Scottish, but all I can say is these 'Southerners' as My64Firebird put it, did a brilliant job. I own the 'Robert Johnson: King of the Delta Blues Singers' collection of songs and regarding this performance, I think The Allman Brothers Band did extremely well. Its different from the original, but its every bit as pure.
Appreciate it, although them southeners did 'country-ize' this ol' blues tune. Check out the Johnny Winter version (not on YT) which is on his Live Bootleg Series Vol I.
Robert Johnson is a delta bluesman...as in Mississippi delta. You can't go no further without a boat. Blues was born is Miss. delta. That's raw country juke joint whiskey by the half pint down south son...yeah I'm down to check out the Johnny Winter version too. Peace.
A+ Robert J cover by one of the greatest bands ever. And guys, don't take this digginestdogg dude seriously.. lol I think he's lost some of his marbles.
lol yea he is a retard, i quote " Butterlfiield: naw, no soul and his popularity shows it; " what the hell has popularity to do with it? by that logic The jonas brothers are better than the allman brothers....lol BULLSHIT!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Greg:sure does, Rory: yes indeed--played and sang it, SRV: nope--played blues well--didn't have blues voice though; Clapton: sucks both playin and singin em, Green: never heard of him; Butterlfiield: naw, no soul and his popularity shows it;
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What about "Clapton sucks" was unclear? It's my opinion and I am not alone. He's a poster child for RIAA scams. He was/is a previous generation's Britney Spears--mediocre talent marketed with big money.. He's a jack of all trades--master of none. Sure, by luck he had a few good ones early with Cream. Even a blind hog finds an acorn now and then. He's bland and soulless for the most part. But the RIAA and label backed him--so he must be great right?
Well yes, Clapton is really just marketed blues. Probably better left just called classic rock. I do like him though especially his voice(on songs like Wonderful Tonight which certainly isnt blues)
I have most all of SRV's CD's and was a huge fan of his, actually he is my favorite guitarist...he still cannot sing the blues like Allman, not even close.
to anyone that don,t know gregg is the larry bird of soul .. might be your man i don,t know ring a bell? and solo my personal fav i was kinda ruff i,m no angel .
Well, it was. That's where I got it. This is from the DVD "The Allman Brothers Band - Woodstock and New York" and this song is from the acoustic part recorded in N.Y. in 1990. The DVD is published by Woodstock Tape & Video Corp.
G*d damn they rock. At least recording technology came before so us youngin's can hear what good, real music can sound like. thank you Robert Johnson and my hats off to the boys. r.i.p. duane, one of the baddest slide players in the last 100 years (in my opinion)
Just buy the cd seven turns
