God why did you go and leave us with the innane crap that goes for music these days after having blessed us with such fine examples of music such as these dear departed former Allman Bothers?

[BritBluesClassRock]

Amen!

Been an Allman fan for years but several of these pictures were new to me. Nice.

In my humble opinion Fillmore is STILL the best live recording of a band I have ever heard

@kyledes91 Who is better duane or dickey>?

[kyledes91]

Duane said one time Dickey is as good as there is in the world and he'll be smokin tonight

There was an album released on Columbia records called "the first great festivals of the seventies" it was a 3 record set of cuts from Isle of Wight and the Atlanta pop festival... It had the Allman brothers on it performing "Statesboro blues" and was the best I ever heard them. It also had amongst others a blistering version of "Grand Junction" by Poco. If you ever see it BUY IT.... it was a great 3record set!

@unclexeres you said it bro !

I live in Phoenix where they have a music museum, and they have live performances sometimes. They should have an exhibit and live show of every performer playing the slide...it's an awesome sound.

@Electrica990 I noticed in 2000 Dickey still used the Strats but also would play a red Les Paul half the time which turned out to be Goldie. It sat in the Rock N Roll hall of fame for several years and turned an ugly green so Dickey painted it red. Dickey was kicked out of the ABB in 2000 & in 2001 began using special signiture Les Paul's made for him by Gibson. I think there are about 5 of them. A couple of Goldtops, a red one, a sun burst, a brown one and one which has some very dark brown.

@Electrica990 between late 1970 and 1974 with the last one being a sunburst with zebra pickups. He also got another SG for slide after Duane died then he got a real bright and pretty Les Paul sunburst for slide. In 1975 Dickey began using his famous Goldie Goldtop Les Paul which was his main guitar until 1994. I noticed between 1980 and 85 Dickey also would use an Ibenez electrick guitar. In 94 Betts switched to Paul Reed Smith then a red Gibson ES-335 & by 97 he used two Fender Strats thru 2000

@Electrica990 Yeah I'm an old f*** at 64 and saw the original band 67 times over a two year period. Duane Allman was the ONLY slide player in the band. That is Dickey Betts playing the first solo as a lead guitar.

When I first saw them Duane played a Les Paul Goldtop and Dickey had a Fender Strat. Then Duane got a brown looking Les Paul and Dickey had a Gibson SG. Dickey then gave the SG to Duane for a slide guitar and got a Les Paul himself. Dickey went through about four different Les Paul's
