Everybody in my hotel room absolutely loves this song!!!!





Someday a vicious knife fight will break out in that hotel room and we'll get stuck with the minibar tab.

This is an absolutely incredible song... and I must admit that I also love the Molly Hatchet cover version...

I saw Gregg Allman interviewed on TV not long ago. I was surprised at how inarticulate he was. I mean, we're talking about one of the great rock bands, and the guy can barely string two sentences together.

Man, has it been that many years since I sat listening to this on my Sears Silvertone stereo?

It's good to hear this again, but a little hard as it makes me think of my friend Barney, gone these many years, with whom I shared so many aventures in those days. RIP, brother.

It makes me feel like a hippy just listening to it.

I'm not an old white guy, but I love this song. Whatever comparisons are made, I don't care. I just love the Allman Brothers, and this is an amazing jam. I can close my eyes and be anywhere - driving down a long stretch of two-lane highway with no cars and only the sunrise in my eyes. I can be at the top of a mountain, with the clouds below me and the snow brushing my face. I can be on a sandy beach with white sand, sunshine, and the sound of a ukelele in the distance. I can be anywhere, doing anything. This song takes me to those places. The Allman Brothers' music always does that to me.

Okay - you drink your white chai tea or sniff your glue or whatever else you might do to get inspired. I listen to the music of RadioParadise, and it keeps me alive and motivates me and inspires me. I love RP.

Shutting up now.

Please, no glue. Ever.

Old white guys drink chai tea? I must have missed the email.

Know what you mean about the Allman Bros, though!

Peace!

The Allmans are the closest thing to jazz rock gets: just beautiful mood inducing music. Rock on, Duane and Dickie!!

Never, ever shut up. I love stumbling on your song comments.

it took me 30 years to figure it out, but this song is about Martin Luther King, Jr. and if it
isn't, it could be.


I don't know enough about the personal beliefs or politics of the Allmans, and this is a huge generalization, but I doubt a southern-fried rock band in the late 60s or early 70s would be writing about MLK. I could be wrong, but that would be an interesting discussion.
