The music added to the above video was probably played at the Jacksonville colleseum. Alan Facemier is the then manager of The Second Coming and The Load. Duane Allman was jamming with us along with Jaimoe on that night. Alan Facemier is the voice telling the hippies that there is going to be a be in.

As for the person who commented that couldn't we just see Gregg, Gregg was not even in town yet to be in the early jams. Duane was still trying to get him there. Gregg is not in the above video.

@rpprice49 Thanks Richard :) Hope you are well :) Yes , that's Betts playing the lick on the vid above from you guy's tapes - in Hindsight I wish I'd have left the video silent - it's created a fair amount of confusion ..... Have a good one and thanks for all your input with all this stuff Dave

I have an audio tape from that era. Reese is on organ, Berry was not the bass player. They played "Don't Want You No More". The announcer mentions an upcoming Forrest Inn event. From the context, I believe the tape was from somewhere other than the Forrest Inn. Did Second Coming and guests play at the Cedar Hills Armory?

Hello, I am the bass player in this 1969 video at the Forrest Inn in Jacksonville, fla. There is no audio in existence. The music you hear is the 1rst version of THE SECOND COMING when Dickey and Berry were still in that band before the ABB was ever formed. Dickey is playing lead on Don't Want You No More. It is from a live recording two mics in front of the band in fla. It is not an ABB band rehearsal. It is a live gig This song was redone when the Abb band did form and made . I was there

WAT??? just a clip ?where i can find this full audio ?

[baudster]

This clip is definitely from the Forrest Inn. If you were ever there in those days, you'll instantly recognize it. The brevity of the clip sure leaves you thi

rsting for more, but what a treasure that it even exists!

[rpprice49]

The players on the music on this video are, Dickey Betts, Berry Oakley, John Meeks(deceased), Reese Wynans, and Dale Betts if you could hear the whole thing.

[danogzilla]

holy shit was he nailing it. the only two other people playing in '69 that i can think of who could hit that lick that hard and sharp were john mcglaughlin and george benson.

To borrow my favorite quote about Duane.....That skinny lizard sure can play!
