@dukenukem4lifeyo123 The only people that compare Duane Allman to Hendrix are you guys the Hendrix fans...Duane Allman was in class by himself and light years in every respect ahead of Hendrix. There is no way to compare the two artist's, they are vastly different.

If you have ever listened to this song in its entirety, it rocks along until Duane's solo. Then he kicks it up a notch. Listen to Berry Oakley and Duane feeding off each other. The segment starting at 3:27 has always been one of my favorites. Just can't say enough of his playing. Left us to soon.

@uhmfar clapton was number 2 on the RS list though, not duane, unfortunately. then again,they also had john lennon well ahead of robbie robertson, as well as robert johnson, so their credibility is sort of suspect.

@Skyman46 How can you say Duane is "light years in every respect ahead of Hendrix" and then say you can't compare the two? You just compared them. You either can or can't.

@MrMotthead69 I totally agree! This is the greatest live guitar solo in the history of R&R!

One of my favorite solos by Duane. I try to get the essence of it when I play it. It's hard. I've listened to over and over. I really want to get that sound too. It's amazing!

Those Rolling Stone lists are usually nonsense, but they probably did get the the first two spots right on that one. Jimi and Duane, Ali and Frazier, Magic and Bird - take your pick.

This is Duane Allman's solo from "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed", from the Live at Filmore East LP recorded in March 1971. It is an iconic solo from an iconic track from an iconic record. The song was written by Dicky Betts and was included on the ABB's second album, Idlewild South. LAFE was originally a two-disc album, and this was the second song on the side three (the second disc), preceded by "Hot 'Lanta." This is considered the definitive recording of the tune.
