Sad thing about Dickey, he must have really messed things up to get canned from the ABB...I know, his drinkin', but can you imagine the Stones w/out Keef? I'm still pissed Mick Taylor quit--they haven't been the same since, and neither have the Allmans since they fired Dickey...and I don't care how good Derek is, they lost their soul when they got rid of Dickey--good luck to him and all the best!

I love Derek & Warren and I think they are GREAT players, but I rather see them in there own bands (Gov't Mule & Derek Trucks Band)..........The ABB without Dickey just has no heart & soul to me!!!!!!!

[markcorley]

And piss on Rolling Stone.

[sccouple2427]

You got that right.......To put Dickey Betts at #56 (I think) was just Ludacris.......I stopped by subscribtion after that issue........and I though Duane Allman should have been #1 hand down

[gittahfiend]

@sccouple2427 no man,Hendrix at no.1 was CORRECT

[sccouple2427]

@gittahfiend.............You know what they say about opinions........"everyone has one"............I'll take Duane Allman ANYDAY over Hendrix!!!!!!!!

[CoreyRobertson2]

One of the best of all-time; this man melded blues, jazz, southern rock, and country into one kickass style

[HendrixClaptonSRV]

dont forget even better. IN Memory Of Elizabeth Reed, Les Brers In A Minor, and High Falls. some of the allman brothers most beautiful instrumentals.

unfortunately, dickey betts is a huge crackhead and it shows in his stage presence. his son, who is very talented and could also be great, is even worse off than daddy and is usually in the middle of a 3 day bender... not sure how he even makes it to his shows.

dickey is the best

[geetarnut]

Yes,, Bett's was more than half of what made the Allman brothers famous! Without him, Ramblin man, which was a number one hit for many many weeks, and made the Allman brothers a national success! Yes,, Betts should not have been treated the way he was by the band, regardless of his personal flaws! Gregg had his,, and they of course didn't or couldn't throw him out, I hope one day soon, they can make peace and have a reunion! That would be a sell-out concert tour, for certain!

why aren't these old time codgers permanently r-e-t-i-r-e-d.......fishing, relaxing, sipping whiskey at home where they belong ? Who are the audience members that keep yelling "whoooo",,,are they codgers too ?

[georgerism]

duane got killed as the greatest slide guitatariat ever BUT straight guitar playing dickey was better

[impala327]

Lots of comments here say that this is out of tune but, I tend to think this is more like Buddy Guy. Microtonal bends. Plus, I dig the crap out of his go for it attitude on this. This isn't "safe" blues

[Django5198]

one of the best guitar vids ever!!!
