I remember watching this on the ABC Friday night "Rock Concert". A better time in life....doobies fresh from Thailand, Red Mountain wine and and two boxes of Ritz crackers.
it doesn't get better than this. i feel sorry for the youth who will never grow up to good music..... they will endure a painful erosion of the ear drum from the likes of gaga and bieber. a sad state of affairs indeed
Good version! Check out version by Mike Brock - he absolutely lights up the leads (from his lap); even the Allman Brothers would have to sit back and smile...
Dickey Betts really does it on this! Duane Allman though was one of the Baddest guitar players of all time. That Bass player Berry Oakley was also one of the best.
This shouldn't be considered "southern" rock, but "transitional." This group is the epitome of a confluence of many styles that invaded into the transitional south from every direction whether that be Europe (Eric Clapton), or from Cuba (percussion). I'm sure looking back on it, everyone standing on the outside from Blues, to punk, to progressive rock, and beyond, just has to admit that this is what they wanted to acheive.
Bummer-terrible video quality. I remember watching this on "In Concert" on a Friday. One of my bands ALMOST got the album version of the guitar solo down-one slide gibson guitar, one gibson slightly muted. IT WAS AWESOME. too bad the guys quit before we performed it.
I must apologize. It appears Elmore James may have written the song. The original ABB release on "Eat a Peach" credits Sonny Boy (as do several other sources over the years) however, Elmo' recorded it first. Pretty good article on the song in Wikipedia, if anyone else is interested.

@RILEIGHJO I'm a youth, still grew up listening to Allman Bros. Gaga and Bieber won't last as long as Allman Bros. have and will! Life is good.

Made after Duane died but before Berry died. Before Dangerous Dan joined the band = only one guitar player = Dickey

This is the youngest that I've ever seen the boys actually perform. Although Dickie was about still 30 here.

This is actually one of the great compositions by Sonny Boy Williamson II, AKA Aleck "Rce" Miller. Amazing arrangement by ABB.
