Message: [QUOTE="alexd, post: 4976589, member: 46"] Like a lot of kids, in the mid-late 1970's, l got into all forms of southern rock; Skynyrd, Outlaws, CDB, MTB, ARS, ZZ Top, .38 Special, Blackfoot, Hatchet.... The Allman Brths Band was a bit of a harder sell for me as I finally began to appreciate the blues that ran through their first two albums. But I first appreciated their country leanings, which came from Betts as he steered the band a bit more after Duane's death. I'm sad that I never got to see the ABB with Dickey, but only a bit later with his replacement, wunderkind Derek Trucks (That could be an entire long story in itself). Anyway, RIP Richard Betts. You can now jam again with your ol' band mates Duane, Gregg, Barry & Butch. [/QUOTE]
