I’ve never understood how the Allman Brothers’ first two albums were not considered top notch! They are my favorite Allman Brothers albums.

First time I heard Live at Filmore East I was hooked. The best live album in any genre ever released. Flawless

Sept 1 1971 I saw ABB in San Diego it was one of Duane's last shows Ill' never forget during his "Elizabeth Reed" solo he stood at the edge of the stage right foot cocked sideways eyes closed it was the most magical mystical musical moment of my life. Exactly 4 weeks to the day later he was gone. Incredible Joy abject sorrow

For those of you wondering, the doctors terrible mistake was their failure to build a time machine to go into the future to retrieve medical knowledge and instruments that could be transported back to 1971 to be used to save Duane's life. I guess.

This video made my heart ache 💔. I saw the original Allman Brothers at college, and they just blew me away. I moved South to Georgia to sing in a friends band a year after that. When we played a show in Macon, we ate at the best and most for our meager money, soul food restaurant one day. Someone put Midnight Rider on the jukebox, and some laughter and noise made us turn around to see the Brothers enjoying their lunch, and excited to hear their song playing. <br>The story of their rise to fame and the terrible fate of three of their members is almost gothic in nature. <br>Long live Southern Bands, and long live The Allman Brothers music ❣️ 🥲

I heard the Allman Brothers for the first time in early 1971 and have been listening to them ever since. I went on to practice medicine for 40 years, principally in emergency rooms. I have to say that this notion that doctors who were about to operate on someone who was involved in a violent high speed motorcycle accident and who had suffered two respiratory arrests in the ambulance would have never promised anyone that they could save someone from such a pessimistic scenerio. Death is always a possibility during any major surgery, even if it is for a nose job. This is a story that is so preposterously unlikely we can reject it as bitter fantasy. Still it is true, Duane was an extremely gifted guitarist.

Midnight Rider is one of the greatest songs ever written.

I just turned 65 yesterday. The full impact of how short 24 years of life is is beyond tragic, especially when Duane was living his very best life. 🎉❤

My daddy named me after Duane. Couldn't be prouder than to share middle names with the greatest guitar player that ever lived and the reason why I play today. My first guitar was also a Silvertone, because of Duane.

Duane was a consummate musician who was not just a virtuoso but also a natural leader. He made everything he played that much better. RIP Duane 🙏
