In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm paying tribute to Dickey Betts of The Allman Brothers Band, who passed away recently at the age of 80. His guitar work is well respected across the musical universe, and his memory and legacy will live on in the music that he created. RIP Dickey!

My mentally disabled wife is dealing with both of her parents in the hospital, both at the end of their times. My wife is far and beyond able to cope with this cycle of life that cannot be denied and she vents her anguish and frustrations to me every day. As I try my best to support and comfort her I wish that I could do more for her. Music has always been my coping tool through all of the hard times that life has presented to me and this particular song has been one of my favorite go-to's. It has uplifted me, supported me and carried me through many tough times and tonight I feel blessed to hear it once again. I was not looking for it, but Doug's episode brought it to me when I really needed it! Thank you Doug for helping out a soul in a way that I am betting you never intended to.

This isn't the first time Doug has first listened to a song that someone out there needed the most at that time. He did the same for me last week with another tribute honoring another musician who passed away by reacting to To Our Childrens Childrens Children. Just what I needed with what I've been going through. Its been my favorite Moody Blues album for a few years now.

Probably the most iconic southern rock song ever written. It was performed flawlessly live on this album. Dickey Betts was one of the world's greatest guitar players who was influenced by many jazz artists (by his own admission). You can certainly hear the jazz influence on this wonderful live recording (time and scale changes). The whole album is great but this song is a true masterpiece. A group of unbelievable talents at the top of their game. I bought this album when it came out in 1971 and literally wore it out. I have a number of copies on different media forms now and have listened to it thousands of times and it never gets old. I have also seen them live a number of times and their stage presence was amazing. Rest in peace Duane, Gregg, Berry, Dickey and Butch. There will never be another Allman Brothers Band but somewhere out there is a helluva jam session going on.

Yes, that’s Dicky taking the 1st guitar solo and Duane the 2nd. I once described the difference between Dicky’s playing (which I liked) and Duane’s playing (which, to this day, amazes me) to a friend as the difference between a bow & arrow (Dicky) and a rocket launcher (Duane). That said, it was how they played together and off of each other that made the magic. Thanks for playing this!❤

from the wiki article on this live performance in this performance, taken from the March 13, 1971 (first show) concert by the group,[12] Betts opens the piece with ethereal volume swells on his guitar, giving the aural impression of violins.[13][14] Slowly the first theme begins to emerge, Duane Allman's guitar joining Betts in a dual lead that variously doubles the melody,[15] provides a harmony line,[16] or provides counterpoint.[15] The tempo then picks up in the next section[14] to a Santana-like,[3] quasi-Latin beat, a strong second-theme melody driven by unison playing and harmonized guitars arising.[11] Betts next plays a solo[13][14] using the second theme as a starting-off point.[17] This leads into an organ solo from Gregg Allman, with the two guitars playing rhythm figures in the background. Throughout, percussionists Butch Trucks and Jai Johanny Johanson play in unison, laying what has been described as "a thick bed of ride-snare rhythm for the soloists to luxuriate upon."[18] Duane Allman then[14] starts quietly rephrasing the first theme, gradually building to a high-pitched climax, Berry Oakley's bass guitar playing a strong counterpoint against the band's trademark percussion. Allman cools into a reverie, then starts again, finding an even more furious peak.[17] Parts of this solo would draw comparison to John Coltrane and his sheets of sound,[17] other parts to Miles Davis' classic Kind of Blue album. Duane Allman biographer Randy Poe wrote that "[Allman]'s playing jazz in a rock context" reflected the emerging jazz fusion movement, only in reverse.[14] Allman himself told writer Robert Palmer at that time, "that kind of playing comes from Miles and Coltrane, and particularly Kind of Blue. I've listened to that album so many times that for the past couple of years, I haven't hardly listened to anything else."[14] Almost two decades later, Palmer would write of the Allmans, "that if the musicians hadn't quite scaled Coltrane-like heights, they had come as close as any rock band was likely to get."[19] Rolling Stone would say in 2002 that the composition's performance found the musicians "lock[ed] together ... with the grace and passion of the tightest jazz musicians,"[20] while in 2008, it said the trills, crawls, and sustain of the guitar work represented "the language of jazz charged with electric R&B futurism."[11] Following the Duane Allman solo the band drops off to a relatively brief but to-the-point percussion break by Trucks and Johanson reflecting Kind of Blue drummer Jimmy Cobb's work.[21] The full band then enters to recap the mid-tempo second theme, finishing the performance abruptly.[21] Several silent beats pass before the Fillmore audience erupts in riotous applause.[21]

Something i noticed early on... When both lead guitars were playing, it sounded as if both guitars were very slightly detuned from each other, slightly sharp or slightly flat. It gives the guitars a sort of "celesta" effect. It's easy to miss without headphones. This is an effect that is frequently used in theatre pipe organs.

The first concert I ever saw was the Allman Brothers Band in 1975. I was almost 12, and it was life changing. Duane and Berry were gone, but with the pick up of Chuck Leavell was something really cool. Watching Dickey and Chuck trade off solos and Gregg was amazing. When they played this tune, Chuck took the first solo on piano, then Gregg's solo, then Dickey took the final solo. And for the rest of his time in the band, Dickey always would take the solo slots that were once Duane's. A little side note, just four years after I saw the ABB in '75, my cousin Debbie gives birth to a baby boy and they name him Derek. And before his 20th birthday, Derek would be announced as the new guitarist for the band. That summer of '99 with Derek and Dickey was a very special one. Rest well Ranger. You've done a damn good job.

He sat in for three or four tunes during their second set. My dad and I headed over to Jacques Imo's for some late night eats after Gregg left the stage. He was then seated next to us, about ten or fifteen minutes later. My dad (about Gregg's age) spoke with him for a few minutes as we both were leaving.

And just roughly 2 1/2 years earlier ? Gregg was not known as a keyboard player, per se. He was brought into the band by his brother for his vocals. They bought Gregg a Hammond, put a large red bow on it, along with some beer & massive joints and told him. "Surprise, it's yours- we need you to learn this thing"..... An accomplished musician already, this was no problem for Gregg.... 🚬😎👍

Nice Jazz feel to this. A bit of a fusion approach for a rock band.🤔

We enjoyed a 3AM, 45 minute jam of "Elizabeth Reed" at the State Bridge venue in Colorado, about 12 years ago, with six guitarists 🎸... only a couple dozen of us (workers or guests) were still awake for it. Btw: Allmans were the last act at Watkins Glen: July 28, 1973. Yes, I was there...

I love the Am9 to start, played way up the neck. You get the bow effect commonly with volume swells

Thanks for doing this one, Doug! Duane Allman is on my Mount Rushmore of guitar influences and Dickey (this song in particular) is not far behind. I literally practiced with this album 2x a day for an entire summer in middle school to learn every single note and still remember most of it 20+ years later.

Warren and Derek Trucks, with Oteil on bass, was a powerhouse lineup for the last 15 yrs of the band! My favorite lineup since the originals.

FYI: When you play the shaker, the volume of the music drops back substantially. Also, though Jai Johanny Johanson (aka 'Jaimoe') is occasionally listed on percussion, he is actually on drums, playing a small jazz kit. He was the original drummer, though Butch Trucks was added to increase the robustness of the rhythm section. It did MUCH more than that, especially with the Berry Oakley's constantly prowling bass lines. Like Duane and Dickey, the rhythm section were also stars - they made this music move. A friend of mine called the Allman Brothers Band 'the Count Basie Band of rock 'n' roll', which is surely apt. 'Les Breres in A Minor' and 'Mountain Jam' (inspired by Donovan's 'First There is a Mountain') are two other great instrumentals, as is the band's interpretation of the Spencer Davis Group's 'Don't Want You No More', which opens the first album.

I just saw in the paper that P. D. Q. Bach died. Last member of the Bach family. I'd love to request a reaction to one of his works. His 5th symphony, Oedipus, Overture, and Fugue are all worthy starting points.

The long-awaited Warren Haynes Rick Beato interview has just dropped. Haynes, one of the great live players, has such great breadth of knowledge and humility Warren won't ever let you forget that BETTS was one of the greatest to ever strap on a Les Paul

Volume swells on the guitar in the beginning, very quickly hitting the note and rolling up the volume knob from 0.
