RIP one of the greatest slides ever to run glass down strings. May he be free, peaceful and find joy….
I had the great fortune to see him play a few times. What a legend!

Been spinning lots all day in fare-thee-well….

Another loss of a great musician. Dickey held the band together after Duane's death.

There were the first live band when I was 16 or 17
Seen them and led zep in nyc square garden
think Duane was gone already not sure
this album has a singer guitarist forgot his name
but to me the best most memorable Album
The jams on this had my bald head bagging while
I worked in my home. just put me back decades
seen them many times walked out once in nyc uptown live show
They were two songs until I could recognize a song
most times they start with states borough blues
always will love that band

RIP. I saw the Allman Brothers Band 7 times with him. He was particularly incredible during the concert at Carnegie Hall a few weeks after Duane passed away in 1971
