Allman Brothers Band [1971] - Little Martha

"Little Martha" was the only Allman Brothers track written solely by Duane Allman. The track was recorded in October 1971, a few weeks before Duane Allman's death in a motorcycle accident. Allman had had a dream where Jimi Hendrix showed him the melody of the tune in a Holiday Inn motel bathroom, using the sink faucet as a guitar fretboard. Little Martha was Allman's ode to his girlfriend Dixie Meadows, who he had given the pet name Martha, because of the vintage clothing she sometimes wore. :cry:

played by Duane Allman & Dickey Betts - acoustic guitars

A landmark in Metal history, No Sleep 'til Hammersmith was the first live album by Motörhead. Released in June 1981, it peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart.

First ever gig I attended was on that tour, at Leeds Queens Hall

Not a bad first gig, to say the least!

They were the loudest band in the world, and there were no volume limits back then, so you can imagine...

EDIT
quite surprised this isn't in this thread - well, it is now
