'Nuff said. Two brothers. One in the top three guitarists who walked this earth. The younger sibling with a voice, and roar, to make you want to hide under the table, not to mention his wonderful song writing ability. Unique brothers that have given us all so much pleasure through their musical ability.

I used to think he was similar but he's most likely more what Duane would have become. Warren is secretly more like Duane but obviously I love them all.

[@brianroyster7510]

@@johnpandolfino8663 I love the Allman's but since I was born in 71 I obviously didn't get the chance to see them at their best. But Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks were still incredible. Anyway, I have to ask why the disrespect for JM? The guy is an amazing guitarist. Not liking the attitude of the guy who had a meteoric rise on the back of a number of catchy pop tunes I can understand. But it should also be stated that the guy recognized it in himself, stepped out of the individual spotlight and joined Dead and Co. He has grown up and his playing has as well. The influence of Bob Weir, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmam is obvious. There is no reason to disrespect a talented guy. He wasn't posing when he wrote those pop tunes that made him ridiculous$ and got him an even more ridiculous amount of ass. I think he deserves a lot of respect for realizing that his musicianship could be better and completely changing course. It says a lot about his character and it should be acknowledged.

[@MmedicatedGoo]

@John why the hate for Mayer? He's a bluesman. Maybe not st duanes level, but who is? Anyone coming after duane could be considered as such but he's not a poser bud. BB king even will tell you that. I have respect and admiration for Any bluesman. Old or new. He's not a poser. He's proven that he is much more then that of his top pop 40 songs back in the early '00s. You, having seen the best, and being around the blues block, shouldn't knock bluesman but should instead, support them dude. There's not many left you know! And look at the garbage put out today by kids. Support the man don't knock him. We need more bluesman and rockers. We shouldn't put the few we have, down.

[@MmedicatedGoo]

Brian absolutely.

[@mmmatthewww]

I too was lucky enough to have been immediately captivated by the Allman Brothers sound in 1969. I was 14 years old and that music changed everything. Went to three Allman Brothers Band concerts in 70 & 71. Duane was always a mesmerizing guitarist live, as he was just bursting with energy and vibe and all that electricity and artistry came out in a sonic torrent. But, he could also bring it down to the most sublimely subtle and delicate levels too. The original Allman Brothers Band definitely captured lightening in a bottle, totally unique sound and an incredible assembly of musicians to deliver it.

[@gjohung]

I am a Korean who grew up in Okinawa, Japan, where US military base was ever present in the late 60 - early 70. Some of the local band played cover of Allman Brother's One Way Out. Local radio station for GI played "rock" music on Sunday Nights where I heard the excerpts from the Fillmore album. In 1971 I was 14 and I also started playing guitar. Allman Bros and Duane were big influence on me. I played Eat a Peach until it wore out. When they re-released EAP on CD the we were able to listen to the Mountain Jam in it's complete form without interruption. I also bought the Complete Fillmore CD with alternate mixes of live tracks presented on EAP. When I came to USA in 1975, it was my bucket list to see the Allman Brothers live. and I did (without Duane). Still most of the members were in tact. Thank you Warren for great in-depth video!

Just wanted to say thank you, I appreciate so much your taking the time to do this. Love Duane, he lived and breathed music. Remember when I got really into the ABB when I started listening my mom hears it jamming on the stereo and asks me what it was... she says "I like that!". For all of the nuance and complexity, their music connected with people. They were the real deal.

Obviously, you are not from middle Georgia but you have done your homework. Thank you so much for your hard work and bringing recognition to this musician. It is unfortunate that his life was ended so early. Can you imagine what he could have done if his life was doubled? What a loss. Thank you for your excellent video. Brian

To be fair... They invented a lot of that stuff FOR Hendrix lol. He GOT famous as a broke ASF musician like anyone else I do think Duane is the best too tho. At least, he's my personal favorite

[@BirdDawg-52]

I live just south of Macon GA and was a teenager during the time they were here recording. Sadly by the time I got to a Allman Brothers concert Duane was gone. The band is a LEGEND here and their memory is kept alive through an organization called GABBA(Georgia Allman Brothers Band Association). Capricorn Records has been restored and is called Mercer Music at Capricorn, and there is the Big House museum where the band stayed when they were here. Then there is H&H restaurant that was the bands favorite, you can still go there and get some Southern fried Soul Food. Four band members including Gregg and Duane are buried here at Rose Hill Cemetery. Gone but NEVER forgotten.

[@arthurias7693]

Duane is in my top 5 for sure, he was just unbelievably good. There's a live version of the Allman Brothers playing Blue Sky, live at Stony brook 1971, and his solo on there is just incredible, one of the absolute best I've ever heard. If you've never heard this version, I highly recommend giving it a listen, it's on youtube

The first thing I done after getting high speed internet was to look up "live Duane Allman"...which took me to a Fillmore show. I had spent MANY hours of my life falling in love with Duane's playing without ever "seeing" him play. Needless to say I was mesmerized. Then I searched for live Blue Sky...which took me to the Stony Brook show you are referring too. Duane TEARS IT UP!!! (and Dicky was not too shabby). Although it doesn't have video it completely blew me away. So I truly understand your comment and totally agree!

[@arthurias7693]

@@dmilstone5709 I'm in the same boat, I've scoured the internet in search of every concert and interview of his I could find. That solo just has everything in it; the tremolo, the notes he picked, switching from major to minor, and incredible feel.

Duane was an actual miracle to the world, and we're incredibly fortunate to have known his soul through his sounds...thank you and RIP always.

Thank you for putting this online.

[@DavidSmith-ss1cg]

It's nice to hear you speaking about Duane's guitar playing - I and most people will agree. But his humanity, and his personality, is what made him great - and revered by his contemporaries; especially those who he played with, like Eric Clapton, and the R&B Stars he did session work for. Duane liked playing guitar best of all, and he was always "on" when he played. And his enthusiasm was contagious, making working with him a pleasure. He was like a cheerleader for the Allman Brothers, while they were playing, and he invited the audience to join in(listen to him exhort the crowd to join in, "Aw, put your hands together..." during the short drum break in "Trouble No More," from the Fillmore East album), which made them hugely popular - it was widely known that an Allman Brothers show would be a great party. My Southern guitar-playing contemporaries who had seen him play live in clubs remembered that most of all.

I was always conscious somehow of the non-commercialized feel of Duane's music. It's not that it's not polished enough, but that it has all the little intricacies and nuances that convey human emotion on a very basic level.

[@michaeldavidfigures9842]

The album Layla was very much an Eric Clapton project, and I love Eric don't get me wrong. He's an extremely competent guitarist and a very introspective songwriter. The choice of Bell Bottom Blues as the album's "call to worship" so to speak, after its brief introduction I Looked Away, is really quite brilliant and sets the stage well for the rest of the album. But when Duane comes into the studio during the recording of Nobody Loves You, and you get hit by some of the greatest slide blues guitar licks ever committed to tape, it's not hard to tell how Duane's energy begins steering the album in a new direction and that's when the album becomes next level. Duane's slide is like the lightning in a thunderstorm here striking the ground at all the right times, and when we reach Layla, he pours the gas on the fire. His slide solo denouement is guitar genius. It is a shame that Duane's name isn't mentioned in connection to the song Layla as often as it should be, but understandable since he is no longer with us to accept the credit. One of the greatest albums ever recorded made even greater by Duane's appearance on it.

Duane was the truest free spirit there was.

[@Producelikeapro]

Yes! Indeed

[@LarryGreenMusic]

I was lucky enough to see the Allman Brothers live at Winterland in San Francisco at the time that "Live at Fillmore East" came out. They were incredible! At that time I was looking to put a new band together that combined the melodies of the Grateful Dead with the rhythm and precision of Santana and here it was!

[@scottmoyer1357]

I am a huge Allman Brothers fan having played on the same bill with them backing up Chuck Berry on drums on May 1st 1971 just 2 months after they recorded Live at Fillmore East. I saw about a dozen concerts with Duane at the helm and will never forget the power of their live performances. It was like music magic happening on stage with the band taking the music to places few could ever dream of reaching. They called it "Hitting the High Note." Their music changed my life so many musically esoteric ways. Much Gratitude!!

Thanks Warren excellent choice!!! I got to see the ABB with Duane at the Overton Park Bandshell in Memphis when I was a teenager and they were were Fantastic Live at that show. O ne thing I noticed was that Duane and Dickie had modded their 4-12 Marshall speaker cabs with silver dome speakers,EVs I believe I read in an interview. This would give a clearer tone. I once ran into Dickie Betts at a JCs a Nashville jazz club where we enjoyed soft drinks and hearing Nashvilles Great Fusion guitarist Stan Lassiter. He has a clip on YT playing both guitar parts at the same time of a AB song. I was in a band with Allan Woody who also playing bass with the ABB and Gov. Mule. It was an enjoyable experience. I know he was against hard drugs for himself. Well, Great choice again mate!!!

Duane is the rare breed who is universally lauded and simultaneously criminally underrated.

Thanks for sharing Josh!

What a fantastic video you created. Hats off to you. Duane was special and surely one of the best.

[@Producelikeapro]

[@leddygee1896]

Every being in the known Universe understands what music is, no matter what form it may take. It's the only language everyone understands...

[@Producelikeapro]

Very well said!

[@izzyoss773]

World lost so many great musicians RIP to all. Duane was one of the kind greatest of all.

[@tripwillie2]

Thanks Warren,for another incredible history lesson about a pure musician !

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much!

[@caryrodda]

Thanks for yet another excellent video! There are lots of awesome players out there, but few who could make a guitar literally sing like Duane Allman. I spent many hours listening to "At Fillmore East" again and again with sheer joy.

[@HitTheRoadMusicStudio]

Wow, love this Episode, thank you! My favorites are for Sure Jeff Beck, Link Wray, Hendrix, Jimmy Page, EVH, Dimebag Darrell, Brian Setzer, lately Cory Wong and Mark Lettieri (Awesome together on the Fearless Flyers), Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Matthias AI Eklund, Paco De Lucia, Django Reinhardt and many .. many more!

[@SandrineVoxServices]

Wonderful list, is Derek Trucks included in the "many more"? ;)

[@kenhouser9256]

Stunning guitar player, untouchable. Tragic to loose him so soon.

[@roylatekajxam]

His version of Goin Down Slow is a masterpiece!

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks for sharing

[@aday1637]

In honor I went out and got myself a set of JBL speakers to listen in the truest way I could, right in my living room. The magic sound was enjoyed by all who came by and took the time to partake of the giving these guys could do. In the early 70's this music was unique and golden. None of us will ever forget the sound. "You got to run to keep from hiding"

[@christiaandemarezoyens4720]

This was a very well presented biography of the incomparable Duane Allman by Clive Owen!

[@Producelikeapro]

Clive Owen? Haha that’s a new one! I’ll add it to the list of look alikes! Haha 74 now! Glad you enjoyed the biography

I was attending UC Riverside in the late sixties.I had just finished a morning class and was walking to my car with a friend when I heard some amazing sounds coming from the quad in the middle of the campus. We looked at each other and knew we had to find out who that was. It was the Allman Brothers Band. I had heard Clapton, Beck, Hendrix, Page, and Peter Green all live, but I was blown away by the sounds coming out of Duane's guitar - like nothing I'd ever heard. We were mesmerized by his slide for the next half hour or so and then drove straight to Licorice Pizza and found their first album. To this day they are my favorite band and Duane is at the top of my list of all-time great guitarists. I still think his solos on Elizabeth Reed from Live at Fillmore East are the most beautiful I've ever heard.

[@mr.k905]

Duane changed my world for sure! Great video! Thanks!

[@alanmatthew5713]

What really makes the music of the Allman Brothers so great is the SPACE they use between the notes. Their music is not that easy to play. You either get it dead on or it's dead OFF. Your timing really has to be right on the beat big time.

[@davidnassur7202]

great Video Warren! I knew the name but not the early history, you've given me another rabbit hole to, jump down!

[@cottontop7253]

I won't say how I found your channel but glad I did. That was a good piece on Duane Allman. Having grown up in the southeast I was fortunate to be able to see the brothers countless times in the early seventies. When you're young, you think things and people will last forever. I ripped an MP4 from Dimples and made it my ring tone many years ago. Once a kid heard it and just smiled and simply said Dimples.... And the road goes on forever.

[@ipuya]

Thank you for another eye opening fun and educational video. I kept stopping the video to go listen to tracks that you mentioned and by the end i had a bunch of new entries in my playlists 😊

[@mikikomurdoch5985]

@Produce Like A Pro, thank you for this excellent and moving tribute! I even cried at the end. While Gregg Allman was a genius to write all the great tunes for the Allman Brothers, Duane embodied the essence of their music to stand out, shine, talk to your soul, and take you to dreamy places you've never been before, like his fantastic solo on 'I Am Yours.'

[@scottstreet5796]

The HourGlass clip was just long enough for me to identify as "So Much Love" by Gerry Goffin and Carole King. I recognized it because it was also the last track on the first album by another (along with the Allmans) of my favorites, the original lineup Blood, Sweat & Tears. The thought of how much was lost with Duane's early death is painful.

[@scotttaylor4195]

Awesome bio on Duane. When the Fillmore East album came out I had just graduated from high school. I was hooked then and still regard it as my favorite album. Again, Great job. I knew a lot of the start but also learned some new info from your article. Thanks for doing it.

[@richardraybould6928]

Thanks so much for this tribute. Duanne was truly a genius, without a doubt one of the very best and ABB one of the best bands ever committed to vinyl. Had the pleasure of crossing the pond to watch them in 2012. Wow!. Oh, that brings me to Derek Trucks.
