  • Ths A&R recording was originally broadcast on WPLJ in '71. I remember my cousin playing this stuff on a horrible memorex cassette and there were many fadeouts. Got the full concert off the internet and it's incredible how it sounds. They close it out with "Hot Lanta" and it blows away the audience

  • Love it when Duane speaks!!!

  • Hehe.. most of the solo here is played by Dickey Betts... Duane turns in at 8:02.. which does not change anything. Duane is the greatest of all time :)

  • love it man, I listen to this song every night before I go on shift. It just gets better! It's all good man, everybody has their time and I believe it's all about the journey. When I listen to The Brothers, I remember the journey just a little bit better, like I can taste it! Glad to be here Bros

  • One of the greatest guitarists of all time.

  • THIS IS EDITED. GRRR im so pissed. Duane Allman did great (prehaps better) in the 8 minutes 47 seconds. No offense to the uploader.

  • @AimNFireProductions,

    None taken... the upload time limit was eleven seconds on youtube when I made this one.

    Point taken... I should reupload the unedited version. I did the same thing with "Only You Know and I Know" by Delaney and Bonnie with Duane. By the third version, I was able to upload the full eightween minute plus song.

  • When Duane is sliding soul serenade god that's just the most beautiful thing in the world.

  • ...Duane was a virtuoso.

  • Do any of you even play the guitar? Derek Trucks is NOT Duane Allman! WTF!!!

  • @ArturoFuente1 tell it like it is my friend.

  • Music is all feelings and emotions and Duane's playing is that. Heart felt and full of emotion pure and simple. This is such a great example of that. He just lost a friend and a fellow musician which he had great respect for and it can be heard in his playing.  Laughing, Anger, Crying and Mouring its all in there.

    AWESOME

  • duane's the best!

  • on my list of the greatest guitarist of all time Duane is number 1,Hendrix is two.

  • @12889414 but your list is shit. I agree Duane is an amazing guitarist

  • @illahham why do you have to be so hateful that just my opinion I know it doesn't matter, It's okay to disagree,sorry to offend you, who ever you say is the best I'am sure they are.

  • @12889414 I think there are a number of great guitarists. Duane being among the best of them. It's hard to say who the greatest was because they all brought something different to music.

  • @illahham I agree with that 100% thanks

  • @12889414 Hell ya brother! No one could catch Duane! NO ONE

  • @xXxDriftingCowboyxXx The first time I heard going down slow, I had to learn to play the guitar, it's like his guitar becomes him it comes to life and I love music listen to all kinds, and I've never have heard his tone or passion from anybody in my opinion. I don't won't to piss off any cry babies thats just my opinion I'm no musical genius or nothing.

  • Duane Allman{b11-20-46to 10=29-71} had alot of characteristics that would make anyone successful,A quick learner, great memory,bravery, great speech and articulation,physical strength,and good looks,but Duane A. had an incredible genious to his guitar playing.He also had lots of ambition and desire.He didn't seem to allow the public become his master,which is very admireable.Meaning he thought 4 himself and not what was popular but possibly false or imprecise.Duane was a real pure star!

  • Just awesome. Duane & Berry, y'all are sorely missed.

  • great music

  • One of the best jams

  • I'm sorry kids, but no one played with the same sound or skills as Duane. God must have needed him pretty bad to call him so soon. I'd give up my nuts to have him around today. Massive talent, glad to hear what I've been given.

  • @JasonHunt74 Man im so happy to hear that there are people who understand how detailed and deep duane was with his guitar playing... Ive listened to all the greats and Duane is light years ahead... well put friend

  • @JasonHunt74 why isn't there any good footage of him playing I would do anything to see him play one song up close just to see his fret work.

  • I've been looking for this incomparable piece of music...Thanks so much for posting it!

  • Thanks very much for this post. Jack_Blackmusic

  • Duane never died

  • Another good one!

  • YEEa Allman Brothers nice tribute to a GREAT

  • @cgf8 Duane is playing very good here. I well remember the original ABB. Also note that Dickey Betts is playing a big chunk of this in the middle and Duane and Dickey trade licks for awhile. Somehow when the original band was together, Dickey often got overlooked but actually he plays about as many solos as Duane did. And they way they played dual lead harmony was something new to bands back then. And the way Butch Trucks and Jaimoe, with completely different styles, fit together so nicely!!

  • @boblackey1 I agree completely. Six different flavors creating an exceptional musical stew. As a guitarist, I listened to Duane and Dickey; but I was equally fascinated by the dual drummer chemistry. Listened over and over to cuts trying to understand who was playing what, and why.

  • @rlpete2 Original drummer Butch Trucks recently said today's version of the ABB has the best guitar playing of any lineup. Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes are technically better that Duane and Dickey and Dickey doesn't have the chops to play the stuff they are playing in the band now. He did give the original band the tumbs up for being the best at originality. But if Butch wants to talk chops, check out Gary Moore playing "the Stumble" or "red house" here on youtube. Better than today's ABB?

  • @boblackey1 Disagree. I've known Derek since he was 15 and he has a great, unmistakable sound, but Duane can do anything, and he is not stuck in minor tuning all the time. He can play anything on his guitar. Slide in regular tuning. And he has the gift of soul. Warren has good chops, but doesn't play behing the beat enough so sounds heavy metallish. Love him, Dickey and Jack Pearson, Dan Toler and all the others. But Duane finished two in Rolling Stones top 100. Guitar players agree.

  • @colorod0 Warren heavy metallish? no. not a bit. The man is groove to the bone.

    Duane was so young. I would have loved to hear what he would have turned into.

  • @thesego211 Well, not necessarily heavy metallish, but very soulful, like you said, but without a definitive sound, besides being a good blues/improv player. Carlos Santana says he can usually tell about 100 living guitar players by a couple notes or even one. Derek, Duane, Dickey are easily identifiable. Warren sounds great, but like alot of great players....not unique.

  • @colorod0 I swear you sound just like a schooled jazz musician. I come from eastman school territory and basically you know nothing. You get educated and then spout off crap like that. In that man's short lifetime, he put stuff together that no one that grew up through it will ever forget. Carlos santana covered a fleetwood mac song and became famous. Now he's an authority. Carlos is not unique, Boring is more like it.

  • @colorod0 he became one with his guitar, he was just unreal.

  • And Jimmy Herring. None are Duane. Derek is to Duane, not quite what SRV was to Hendrix.

  • @boblackey1 apples and oranges. Do a search on Joe Pass if you want to see chops. GM was a monster though.

  • @boblackey1 Please, I know Butch personally, and he's just trying to help the young guys by pumping up the hype. Chops are important, but soul is more, and in that category, Derek and Warren fall way short of Duane and Dickey.

  • @boblackey1 All of them are better than Dickey but your nuts to think anybody compares to Duane.

  • @12889414 Hmmm. I just read an interview with Butch Trucks & he said his nephew Derek Trucks can play circles around Duane Allman. And I hold that Gary Moore can play circles around Derek Trucks! I have yet to hear a guitar player who can touch Gary Moore.

  • Comment removed

  • @boblackey1 Derekcan't touch the soul Duane had.

  • @Required365 I agree with that Required365. Eric Johnson, to me, is as good as Gary Moore technically but he doesn't have the SOUL that Gary Moore had. Gary was like Duane Allman in that department except he had the technical chops of the best guitar players. But the "soul" is what really counts for an emotional experience to the listener.

  • @boblackey1 oh excuse me I didn't know what you read was the bible of guitarist , i also read in this same article larry the cable guy was better than gary moore so excuse me. sorry mr guitar genius.

  • @boblackey1 Trucks didn't say that. Trucks wouldn't say that. Both Moore and Derek are incredible guitarist but you're crazy to think either one is better than Duane. Duane put southern rock on the map and kick started the revolution all while doing it in the short 24 years he was on this planet. Come now, how dumb do you think we are?

  • @xXxDriftingCowboyxXx Derek Trucks didn't say that he could play circles around Duane Allman!! His UNCLE Butch Trucks said that! Butch Trucks who is a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band & one of their drummers said his nephew Derek Trucks can play CIRCLES around Duane Allman. I love Duane Allman's playing & Dickey Betts too. But Butch Trucks hates Dickey as a person & trashes him often in the press plus more than once has said todays ABB is the best ever.

  • @xXxDriftingCowboyxXx So I agreed with Butch Trucks (I follow Butch's blog) & whoever posted on YouTube that Derek was technically better than Duane. I said yes that may be true but "so what!" Gary Moore is technically better than Derek Trucks. I invited this guy to type in "Gary Moore Red House" and watch Gary play technically better than Derek or even Jimi Hendrix. But technically better is NOT BETTER!! to me. There are other things that make a player better too.

  • absolutely fantastic, thanks for posting!

  • I was at that the Shaffer Music Festival show. Total knock out, the Allman Brothers were a favorite band for years. i wept when both Duane and Berry died. I still miss them... they live on in their recordings and I'm so glad you posted this selection. Thank you.

  • this is it.

  • I'm so glad i like  real , beatufil music

  • God this is amazing. It just doesnt get any better than the allman brothers.

  • @austinabernethy456 jimi hendrix...na just kidding I hate hendrix.

  • @Skyman46 hahah yeah i agree. he's decent just way too overrated. never a big fan of him.

  • This song still gives me goosebumps

  • duane allman plys so beautifully...this is coming form a 16 year old dude

  • @dlm9293 your taste is much better than your spelling... this is coming from a 26 year old dude. ;-)

  • @TheBrowndawg well im 17 now so im a bit better with both

  • @dlm9293 man whats it matter if its coming from a "16 year old dude", or a 61 year old dude?? no offense to you man, i just get tired of hearin that. theres alot of young people (myself included) who listen to great music, theres no reason to say "here i am! i love this music!" do you want to be a fetus and love the allman brothers?

  • @HendrixClaptonSRV it doesn't matter at all...i know i'm not the only kid who likes good music im just a bit proud im not of the kids listening to waka flocka flame or roscoe dash and all that other stupid shit. but honestly theres no reason to call me out on it, buddy.

  • @dlm9293 look man, im not one to post negative comments towards anyone, really. im glad we both enjoy this stuff, i jus get tired of seein that comment a top of so many videos, along with the beiber comments and things ilke that. you now where im comin from, so it aint personal or nothin.

  • @HendrixClaptonSRV well alright then. =)

  • @dlm9293 - Duane Allman died on October 29 1971 about 60 days after this recording - So what makes you think anyone on this recording is 16 years OLD ? Duane was 24 - in August of 1971 < not 16 , please explain your comment ? or make needed corrections to your statement ?

  • @rentatrip1 i was 16 when i posted this...i was noting my age listening to this...i know duane allman was not 16 when this was recorded...im not stupid you just misunderstood my statement

  • @dlm9293 I love the fact a 16 year old kid was smart enough to know how great he was, I have a 14 month old grandaughter who will set in my lap and listen to him and you can see in her eye's that this is something special.

  • @dlm9293 He was 24 when this was recorded...

  • @dlm9293 He was 16 when this was recorded.HUH, I had the honor of watching Doyal Bramhall coming up from about that age. It's amazing to see a true prodigy come up.

  • @wc4dblues,

    Duane was 24...

  • @wc4dblues I am pretty sure he was referring to his own age

  • @z32j10h I think you're right, But none the less what I said of Doyall is true. Duane was really young when he passed, I'm not sure of his age?

  • @wc4dblues 24

  • @dlm9293 WHO GIVES A DAMN HOW OLD YOU ARE? Duane was barely 5 years older than you when this was recorded, so you're his target audience anyways. Doesn't matter that you're listening to it X amount of years later. You are not superior to anyone else because you were raised on "classic rock" or found the ABB through Youtube. And the more I've gotten older (yes, I am not too much older than you), the more I realize that as great as Duane was, Derek [Trucks] might be the best player of all-time.

  • @theatlantisrise well sorry to affend you man. i was just pointing it out, figured most people listening to good music are alot older than me. you're right age doesnt matter, but thats really no reason to be rude, because 1) you know nothing about me and 2) it kinda makes you sound like a dick. I never said i was better than anyone, i merely stated a fact, so you bitching at me for it is kind of uncessesary, dont you think? and as for derek, i think he's duane reincarnated.

  • @dlm9293 you tell him dude there is nothing wrong with you, why can't everyone just be nice.

  • I have a new favorite song, Duane is awesome. Thanks for putting this up. Saw the ABB April 23 in Macon and they are still awesome, just think if Duane was still here.

  • hey, i take your advice about this. It´s awesome, really good, in fact, i´ve heard Allman a few times, now i´m gonna listen to him.

    About the Fuzz, i still think that a Single coil sounds better with it, but this is impressive

    thanks

    bye

  • Been looking for this tribute. Very nice, RIP King & Duane.
