Allman Betts Band - Blue Sky (Pro Shot)

Duane & Johnny are really locked in... damn fine playing imo...

Yep. Nice playing. Johnny is channeling Duane Allman a lot here. Here several oblivious Duane licks right from Duane's solo on Blue Sky on Eat A Peach.
I've seen this band 3 times and Johnny at those shows did the last half of his solo with a slide.

I agree,Johnny is really good. Has the whole ABB vibe down when playing those tunes. Great tone also! Duane add some tasty licks going on. Fine playing by both.
Everyone has a plan, till you get punched in the face,

One of the best songs Dickey ever wrote and it, like Warren's Soulshine, came AFTER Brothers and Sisters and Laid Back. Indeed the band did have some good original songs later in its existence.

Thanks to all for posting these great tunes. I could listen to each one all day.
Back in the day, the combination of Dickey and Dan on guitar and Dan's brother on drums was really outstanding in my opinion. It's to sad we lost both of those brothers so early.
The Allman Betts Band seems to channel some of that sound and their live show is just impressive.
