Dicky Betts is the most underrated guitar player ever. Only Dicky could pick up a slide and learn Duane's parts in short time and do a damn good job at it and still cover his own parts. And he did this for quite a while too. ABB had two all time greats at guitar.

Many people think the Allman Brothers Band were from Macon, GA. They were not. They were founded and originated in Jacksonville, FL as were several 70's classic rock bands like Lynard Skynyrd who were also from Jacksonville. Two of Southern Rock’s architects, Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Allman Brothers Band were formed in Jacksonville, paving the way for other Southern Rock bands, including local bands .38 Special, Molly Hatchet, and JJ Grey & Mofro.

[@lizzie7223]

Thank you for the history lesson, much appreciated .

wow..this is the music I was raised and cut my teeth on. I wish Dickie the best. I would like to just go say hello to him some time and thank him for the music. He is aging and suffering memory loss. Can't stop the hands of time. Sadly we all live to die.

[@billiam8270]

I got to see them too -- Fillmore West opening for Buddy Guy and BB King. It was their first appearance on the West Coast, January 1970. They smoked of course. Betts and Allman -- in my opinion, the best guitar duo in rock history.

[@kisserSDMF]

They were great in this 'second peak' era of the early 90s. Glad I saw them many times then, not old enough in the early 70s.

[@chuckm4540]

Dickey was smoking hot during this time. My favorite iterations of the Allman Brothers are of course the classic original lineup, then this lineup with Warren Haynes and then the last iteration with Wayne and Derek Trucks. Good old Greg was the common denominator throughout.

[@stevepliszka7038]

dickie and warren were meant for each other cosmic energy

[@SouthernRocker]

Watching this, I got the sense that Dickey went to another level when playing with Warren. And who wouldn't be inspired, considering Warren's such an outstanding player also. He previously played in Great Southern with Dickey, so they had some history together. Of course, Dickey's a master guitarist in his own right, as he proves here. I think playing with Warren brought out the best in him, no doubt.

[@johnnorton5917]

yeah agree, once Dickey left Derek & Warren went too far. At least with Dickey there was some strain on the leash. Less is more after all.

Love Warren Hanes and Gov’t Muel. He makes the Allman Bros. sound like they did when Duane was alive. I’m 67 now; was 15 for my first Allman Bros show at Fillmore West in SF. Ticket was about $4.00 or less and we got a poster of upcoming shows.

[@hershysquirts187]

I completely agree with you.

[@Mike-og3xb]

they have "The Edge" at 38. what a joke.

[@SouthernRocker]

I agree, that is criminal!! For being the pioneers of the Southern Rock genre (Dicky hates the term) Dicky and The Allman Bros. Band in general have always been underrated. Even in their early years, they never received the amount of radio airplay that they deserved because their blues-rock sound was never the "flavor of the day". Sadly, most radio content is driven by record sales, ($$$) and not the quality of the music (add to that the list of "best guitarists", although it shouldn't be). Even today's classic rock stations seem to ignore them for the most part. You forget your roots (blues), and look what happens. We get the kind of emotionless crap that passes for popular music these days!

[@andrewptob]

Dickey is easily top 10 in my book.

[@daleg.9673]
