Dangerous Dan Toler was a gem. RIP to all the ABB band members who have left us.

Can you imagine being Toler and Betts jamming together like butter....smooth, Fun!!

Dangerous Dan's guitar playing is fantastic. His lead guitar playing on One Way Out from this show is tremendous. 🎸

John M: Dickie Betts - such a fantastic technical guitarist. But with so much feeling that is unmistakable. And great licks and superb timing. Plus his singing! It's hard to believe he was eventually fired, this iconic Brother who carried the group after Duane died. ABB would not have a top 10 hit with Ramblin Man. Not to mention Blue Sky, Liz Reed, High Falls, Southbound . . . What a freakin tragedy! And though Great Southern lasted some 10 years, it never equaled his success with ABB.

I saw them in 76 aft the Bayfront Center I remember that one I was preg with my first child.sober lol this band made me pick up a guitar in 1972 first Isong learned was Sweet Melissa. Still play it today. With many others. . 68 to 72 killer music. I couldn't stand it any longer. Got me a guitar and have not put it down since last time counted I know 146 songs. I'm sure I left some out. Soooo much killer. Music I would say 68 ,to 95 we're my best years in music. Those times can never be repeated.

[@ronaldpetrin5823]

AB just keep on coming such a respite in mindful delight.

[@f3uibeghardt522]

I cannot believe that they played Pat Metheny's "San Lorenzo" over the PA when the band took their encore break. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised, since they were into all sorts of jazz (and Jai was a jazz drummer), but I did a double take when I heard that. Probably the most beautiful tune I've ever heard. I wonder whose idea that was.

[@tonykirby4245]

[@RussellGalloway-k7c]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@darwincrabtree6580]

historic music I will allways consider ABB the greatest Southern Rock band of all time and Dicky as one of the most talanted and underrated guitarist of his time. With that said however, in my humble opnion, they just never got the spine tingling sound back on Whipping Post and Dreams that they had with Duane and Dickey together. I think Gregg even eluded to that in an interview. This is not to say ABB went on to create historic music that has and will stand the test of time. At 62, revisiting the old ABB has sparked the passion in me to pick up my guitar and bluers harp and get back at it.

[@MrBaseball2490]

Dickys the best…

[@newmoon54]

You're partly right about losing that magic when it comes to the loss of the leader, Duane,, but that's how it is with everything that's artistically intended to touch our emotions/senses! But like most things in life, they're sort of ~Seasonal~ and we have to grow and adapt to differences how or what they may be! This is life my friend!!!! God bless!!!

[@jaykay6387]

No artist or band can keep the "urgency and fire" of youth alive forever, it's simply impossible. Even if Duane had lived, they would not have sounded the same in 1980 as they did in 1971, which was their absolute apex. And IMO that was the best that any band ever was playing that particular style of blues rock, it was transcendent.

[@allanbriggs9007]

Just a little note. The Allman Bros was not a Southern rock band and Duane indicated he disliked that label. They were essentially a blues based rock band. I accept that Dickey would sometimes move in that direction.

[@XxMO3xX]

I've probably watched this 20 times in its entirety so far this month. Talk about an overall great performance by everyone. Great show!

Well...aside from megahit #2 Ramblin' Man, not really. Then they had to eventually kick Betts out and show-cased the duo of Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks - Amazing! They had success on the Mainstream Rock Charts in the 90s forward. Saw Dickey Betts Band solo - they were great!

[@realledbetter5015]

Lucky you. I didn’t get to see The Allman Brothers live until 1992 (twice), & 1994. By 1980 I had already seen Black Sabbath, Yes, Jethro Tull, Kansas, & Rush. It took me 12 years to catch on. Once I did they became one of my all time favorites. When Gov’t Mule formed, I’d catch them live whenever I could. Then after Dickey was fired I would see him & Great Southern live whenever they played annually from 2006-2014! Dickey is such an amazing guitarist, song writer & musician!!!

[@jamescantrell1916]

I probably shouldn't bring this up because hey we all have a past but I think Greg was wired. watch his mouth movements and moving his Jaws. But let me tell you everyday 60% of the music I listen to probably is Gregg Allman I just wish I would have had the opportunity to have met him I think he was kind of guy that wouldn't matter what Walk of Life you came from if he liked you he would befriend you

First heard the Allman Brothers in the late 60s/early 70's Ramblin Man. Got to see them numerous times, one time in Lenox MA in 1981, got there of Friday afternoon with three friends in my 69 Mustang, we just left from class in high school and headed to Lenox. There was an open field where everyone Parked. For three nights we slept in the field in or on my car. More friends from my hometown showed up with food.....Mind candy was a constant and when Sunday afternoon came around at 3 PM Eddie money played for three hours as the back up band and then the Allman Brothers came on around 6 pm and played until midnight, best I ever saw them, just like this. we got pulled over by the police on the way home, empty beers all over the back seat floor, the cops looked at my friend chuck and said "You look like you had a rough weekend" gave me a 25 dollar ticket for speeding and sent us on our way. Those were the days. God Bless Greg Allman, may he rest in peace and he is with his brother now

@Cash Watkins I have to admit this time, he was not ready for the strength of whatever he took that night. Plus, I believe he had Belushi back stage and those two together = trouble. I have watched each video separately too. Betts pretty much hold it together. A year later to the day, they played the Capitol again...with pretty much the same results. It is the least of the best...from a true blue fan. This is great for historic reasons, though. He was only human after all...he even looks uncomfortable....
