[@robertdillon9989]

David Compton : nah; opinions, I prefer Warren’s style on the strings, which is way more classic Allman Bros. From a 40 yr. guitarists point of reference to the loose non precise flying improvised style of Derek that is more that of a slide guitar master... they both are very different, but get the sound out there in their own ways, and we , I guess, are entitled to our opinions, I’ve seen Warren play Pink Floyd better than Gilmore... he can play anything, consumate master... Duane is the best Slide player alive, but not the best at all the other variations of guitar, he’ll be the first to tell you !

Tonight, tears of fear, potential loss and yes joy roll down my face as i watch & listen to this. My uncle, is in the ICU in critical codition from Covid19. He is my beloved friend, music mentor and family. Growing up i airways what to him about music. When i'd brag that i'd seen the ABB he would remind me he saw them 5 times w Duane. Two of the three times ive had heart surgery in Seattle id play this song going into surgery. While i know he cant hear this right now I'm playing this as loud as i can in defiance, in sadness, in anger, most mostly in love. I love you dearly, Neal.

All true! Notice also how Warren uses pick and a finger strum so neatly and rhythmic

[@billmonteith8576]

All things change, I remember Dicky Betts AND Duane, nothing is as good as the original but, this iteration is as good as any other. The fact they're keeping alive a style of music, the open jam ala Grateful Dead, is a testament to the free flowing life we all enjoyed then. You want to hate on something, hate on the prepackaged, processed and sampled crap that's passing for music today. It takes little to no real talent to steal riffs, toss them together and call it music. Just one old man's opinion.

why not just enjoy it for what it is? Why this constant trolling/hating? These two guys are carrying the torch for great playing, composing, collaborating and all you have to offer is "it ain't as good as...." In fact this IS the Allman Brothers Band, get used to it. They may not be the same without Dickey true, but they are pretty damn great too.

[@bobcardenaz9034]

+bullguit I agree with you 100% Warren and Derek are great players in their own right. Derek is a young legend IMO This is some kick ass guitar playing!

[@stubhead]

I think it's fairly legitimate to say that Derek Trucks can never BE Duane Allman as well as Duane Allman could, Eric Gales BE Hendrix and all that. There was a highwater mark for originality set by the originals that can never be met, because somebody else will always be playing SOMEBODY ELSE'S songs. Personally, I think it's a compliment on the part of younger musicians to treat the Allman Brothers, Hendrix, and Grateful Dead songs as "new standards" in the same way you'd treat "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" or "Born Under a Bad Sign" as standards - you don't HAVE to wait for people to die, do you? Some great musicians just DON'T write very well, and I'd rather hear them play the best songs they can find than try to force themselves to rewrite the same things over and over. Derek & Warren were members of the BEST ABB cover band I'd ever heard. But "Jessica" misses Chuck....

[@tdw57]

[@willfoy3275]

Been a fan of them since my late teens. Saw Derek Trucks when he was about 12 or 14 @ Under the Street in Durham NC when it was still open in approx 1991. Got his pick and told him I’d join him of stage someday...because he was already that frigging good and I foresaw myself playing blues rock on large stages someday. My musical goals have changed over the years, but I’m grateful that I’ve be privy to watching the ABB’s legacy grow and expand. These guys are a treasure.

[@scundoalex]

I have the pleasure of making music with really good musicians. I consider myself blessed. We were raised on this music. I'm playing southern rock, jam, classic, R&B and blues with a group of guys I've known for 30+ years. All fantastic players who play from the heart. We all have day jobs to pay the bills but on weekends the 6 of us go out and play songs like this from The Allman's and so much more. This music will continue because real music lovers will keep it alive. All the sampled, processed, auto-tuned horse shit we hear today is so incredibly fake. There are always exceptions of course but the majority is dreck and it's here and gone in the blink of an eye. Songs like Jessica are timeless for a reason. We've lost so many artists from this beautiful era of music. Just from The Brothers alone -> Gregg, Duane, Berry, Butch, Lamar, Dan, David and "Woody". RIP

[@klmullins65]

Got that right, I was lucky to have seen them many times but the best were seeing them in 1970 with the original line up. First was at RFK Stadium in DC then at American University. Those were the best days of the Allman Brothers , hungry to play well & that they did.

shizzlenoits Gregg isn't the only original member. Butch and Jaimoe are originals. Derek is part of the family, nephew to Butch Trucks. They're not just glorifying the past. These are *amazing musicians* giving us fans the gift of their music.

Dickey calls it an Allman Tribute Band....

[@catmom1322]

Derek Trucks rocks!

[@thundergod1298]

Colleen Meegan Derek IMO is a bit overrated. He plays Slide OK but can't touch what Duane did in his short career. Conversely think Warren is underrated. He has a very soulful voice and has stage presence besides being a brilliant guitarist. These guys say they won't play together again but only time will tell....

[@cammieksandi]

Thundergod129 I've never heard Derek and Warren claim they won't play together again. ? Dickey will be playing with Derek and Susan very soon in their show. And everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It's a shame you're not more aware of Derek's talent. I'm a huge Duane fan and I'm also a huge Derek fan. I definitely know that you could never touch either one of those fine soul's talents, so opinions can be overrated as well.

[@thundergod1298]

c. k. sandi What I heard was that they wouldn't play together as The Allman Bros. In fact they recently did their last show. But we all know that money has coaxed many out of retirement. As far as Derek, well it really IS a matter of opinion. He was blessed to be born into such an iconic band but there will never be anything as awesome as Dickey and Skydog playing those double leads. And opinions can't be over or underrated but again that also is a matter of opinion I guess....

This is my favorite song.....by the original band.

They ain't Dickey and Dwayne, but they ain't bad. In my opinion, Jessica is the best sounding guitar, plus other instruments, piece I have heard in my 63 years and these boys did a pretty good job. I liked it, ok.

[@carriehawks9415]

still for me Mountain Jam is the best instrumental

Yo Bill,, I was at that Festival. No stolen riffs there.. big man has paid his dues. It was one of my all time favorite Jams. The Mule ..Amazing as always. Im old too. But the Music is never tooooo Loud
