The late great Duane Allman, probably one of the best blues guitarists, largely forgotten now because he was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident in the early 70's but was along with his brother Greg (also now dead) part of the original Allman brothers band.

I never got into the Allman Bros - or better still, they never got into me :):)....but don't ask me why, I've never , to date, found out !! Could be that I was into something heavier like Lynyrd Skynyrd in that period !:)
 
The Allmans and Skynyrd are from the same neck of the woods and share some of their musical roots. Greg Allman (who later married Cher) is a brilliant singer with a Unique voice and the twin lead guitar set up is kinda unique as well except for maybe the UK's Wishbone ash. Live recordings of Duane are rare because of his untimely death but here is him doing the Whipping Post.


...and here is a (later) full concert with Dicky Betts, another brilliant guitarist.

Ronnie van Zandt alone eats off the Allman's Bros heads ....in MY rockbook that is :):)
