[@CharlesWinters-ie3jy]

Vince played with Pure Prairie League in the late seventies. Not really a country band and they had some big hits. He always hung around Albert Lee who became a country star. Albert played with guys like Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. You hang with those guys you better be able to play a guitar. You want to hear real guitar playing watch Albert Lee play country boy. I believe he was guitarist of the year six times.

Greg had his issues like most of us did in the 70's. But he was a righteous guy. He came into my shop one day and was looking at a nice leather jacket we had at "Comes the Sun" in Buckhead Ga. When I saw him , I began to look around for Duane, who was my guitar god. Duane was not with him on that day but Greg wanted that jacket. I told Greg I'd give him the jacket at my cost (50 % off ) if he would wear it on his next album cover. I never thought about it again until I looked on the back of the live at Filmore album and sure enough he had it on. He was overshadowed by Duane and Dickey for many years but had immense talent that the world realized eventually .

On his way out he wrote this song in his head when he arrived he told Greg about it and they sat down tweaked it and put it to music. His name is on the sheet music as co writer with Gregg. He has the gold record in his house,he is mentioned several times in Greg's book He's pictured on the back cover of the Live at Filmore East album wit the other roadies.

that's truly a great performance. And I must disagree, Vince Gill isn't under-rated...he's more than proved himself in a wealth of venues and groups as a tremendous singer, guitar player and mandolin player going back to the PPL days, his Emmylou days, and before that. His accomplishments are ( and have been) well documented. RIP Gregg...you'll always be remembered.

Zac is a PRO!! He's very careful not to upstage Gregg's vocals by over-singing his parts, and instead chooses to shadow Gregg's beautiful voice in perfect step. That's the sign of true respect and a fine human being.

👏 Performance from a ‘Baby Boomer’ who grew up listening to the original version of this 🌟 song! I’m 70ish now but still ❤ and listen to ALL genres of music and think THIS is a 👍 very well done ‘group effort’ of a great song from the past when done by the ABB’s (late) Gregg Allman . * I don’t much care for the real ‘country’ sounding music in general (like most of Jonny Cash), but I’ve recently been listening to a LOT of Zac Brown and Chris Stapleton (for a couple examples) that don’t strike me as being in that category, even though they’re considered as such.
