Obviously we can no longer be friends.

I wouldn't mind being any of those cats.

I'm going to take up the organ soon so that I can pretend I'm Gregg when nobody is watching.

Pretty cool animation, but the editing makes me want to just hear any one of those versions of Statesboro Blues.

You should learn organ. Get a real Hammond and a Leslie and go to town. Here's a tip Hammond M3 can be had for $300 or less and are real tonewheel organs. Many call them the Mini B. I paid $50 for mine. The Leslie will be expensive, but WHAT A SOUND!

Very nice, but the ending is tear inducing. fuckfuckfuck Here and gone. *sigh*

Thanks for the tip, brother. I've been wanting to branch out and learn something a bit more useful to a blues ensemble than just the bass. Honestly I'm not a great bassist. I'm an in the pocket type player and I think I could do more with an organ. Either way it's worth it if only I can pretend I'm Gregg or Booker T for awhile. Especially if I can get oneof those M3's for a steal.
As for the Leslie, I'll stick a woofer on a hamster wheel if I have to.

That was actually pretty cool.

Both Duane and Berry. It's funny I've heard Statesboro Blues from the Fillmore East hundreds of times probably, and I am still hearing things in it that amaze me.

I am currently reading Gregg's memoirs and the chapter on Duane's death and Berry Oakley a year later is heart breaking.
It's quite a good read. I recommend it.

What can I say? I'm a geek boy for the Allman Bros.

Booker played an M3 on Green onions. The Motion Sound stuff is sometime cheaper than a Leslie. There was also a Fender Leslie type speaker. I believe Stevie Ray used on on stage.

I love every time I get to play Hammond on something. The instrument itself is so inspiring. I've got a guy I hire sometimes who grew up playing in church, and if I ever have the time for practicing, I'm going to take lessons from him.

"If you can't make it baby
Your sister Lucille says she wanna go
And I sure wanna' taker her."

After Duane died they were never the same.

Watch some YouTube clips of Derek Trucks with them and you might change your mind.

 

[spacekowboy]

Evidently there is a bunch of you fuckers that I can no longer be friends with.

A-holes.

 

[pointless]

like better bands, you bastard.

 

[pink]

I have kicked you to the curb.

Try Hole or Garbage or Alice In Chains or Foo Fighters or STP or shit I can't think of any more.



We are finished.

 

[lovecraft68]

They have a lot of energy, they were very animated in the video....

Sighs.

My company builds displays for Sonos and their guy gave me a couple of their speakers.

These guys sound fucking amazing through that system.

I love the Allman Brothers. The brother who died at a young age had a daughter who lives in Berkley. I think I read that she ended up with the rights to much of their music. It was an interesting story.
