Classic rock

Duane was in a class by himself, believe me. And the combination of him and Dicky was other-worldly. The band was an absolute enigma back then.

There are a number of musicians who I wonder how they would have grown if they lived. Plenty who live become stagnate (Eric Clapton for eg imho) but Duane seemed like he would have grown a lot. Among other things, he was really into Miles Davis and John Coltrane. Hendrix is another I think was growing. That last album The Cry of Love really showed some beautiful new development I think....maybe we need a new thread on "Great Musicians Who Grow Old and Keep Playing For Better or Worse" ;)

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
