I'm really enjoying you guys enjoying ABB. And, yes, Gregg Allman has one of the very best voices in all of blues/rock. Please listen to him sing MELISSA - studio recording is just fine. You're nailin' it - thanks

[@byronmitchell3784]

ALLMAN BROTHERS, "MIDNIGHT RIDER". Keyboardist Greg Allman. Lead singer, and yes Greg, and Cher were maried in the 80's I believe. More "STATESBORO BLUES".. just wanted to mention Greg Allman passed away not all that long ago RIP.

[@mikefannon6994]

Love Statesboro Blues! Back in the beginning when Duane was alive that was always the opening song. I believe that last photo in the video was from the second Atlanta Pop Festival. They played first and last. 400,00 freaks there, including me - July 1970.

[@Thomas-aka-TomD]

Nice. Check a LIVE of them doing "Southbound". They are definitely rooted in the blues.... A lot to choose from... "One Way Out", "Not My Cross to Bear", "Dreams", "Ain't Wastin' Time No More", "Statesboro Blues"....just naming a few....

[@AirplayBeats]

Thanks for watching. I’m looking forward to hearing all these tunes!!

Greg Allman (Lead singer, keyboardist) was married to Cher for a number of years. Always thought it was an odd mix.

Yes Cher and Greg Allman were married in the 70's after she and Sonny Bono broke up 😊😊

Can’t say this is their banner song, but it got me down many miles; this was a soul sending river. Southern blue eyed soul, roots in black rural blues and church music. This will play at my funeral.

[@MrEdwinhardesty]

In the old West, the town Sheriff would put together a posse to hunt down a person who comitted a big crime like bank robbery, murder, etc. The only way to get away from them was to ride your horse all night long (the midnight rider) because the posse usually didn't travel at night and set up camp each night. So I believe this song is about an outlaw trying to get away.

[@dianesaienni5466]

Gregg Allman the singer and his brother Duane lead guitar. Unfortunately Duane died young but he was one of the greatest guitar players of his time. I've heard he played guitar on Eric Claptons song Layla.

Happy birthday to the late Butch Trucks! Born on May 11, 1947, in Jacksonville, Florida, Butch went on to become a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band. Together, he and fellow drummer Jaimoe melded their styles into one seamless sound that helped define Southern rock. According to the band website, guitarist Dickey Betts said the following about the lineup: "When Butch came along, he had that freight train, meat-and-potatoes kind of thing that set Jaimoe up perfectly. He had the power thing we needed."

[@toddfrymire6265]

[@waynemoon5359]

Awesome to see your enthusiasm for this great band. Duane and Greg grew up in Daytona but the band is considered to be from Georgia. Duane plays slide guitar and Dicky Betts also plays guitar. They have so many excellent songs that your about to groove to. Check out an instrumental called "Jessica". Also, Blue Sky, Southbound, One Way Out, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, Soulshine, and on and on. This is one of the bands that changed my life. I hope it does for you too. IMO the very best of the Southern Rock Bands. Followed closely by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Check out "I know a Little Bout it" from Lynyrd Skynyrd. You'll be impressed by the guitar work on that one.

This was 1970 Gregg Allman wrote it when he was 17

@@AirplayBeats Gregg (Singer/Keyboard) was a big time rock star in the 70s, and Cher was most well-known to middle America from the Sonny & Cher TV show that ran from the late 60s to early 70s. Marrying Gregg at the time was kind of like it would be if Lil Wayne married Taylor Swift. That would make some people have a meltdown.

Guys that is Cher they were married for a while. If you going into a group do a little research first before you play the songs. At least you should know who are the groups members. Then you can react to each song with some kind of context. And don’t stop the song at the beginning to comment let it play for a while. I know you never heard the Allman Brothers but you should know that they have two drummers. Did you ever hear of Google
