I don't miss Dickey going off on tangents and dragging songs down when he was too drunk to carry the tunes. I saw the Allman Brothers at Merriweater Post in the early 90s and Dickey couldn't be there because he was in jail for beating up his wife. I will miss songs like Blue Sky, Ramblin' Man, Seven Turns, Jessica on new albums. Hittin' the note proves to me that Dickey leaving the band was necessary, the music flows better now and the writing is great. I am a Dickey fan but I don't think he's comming back to the Allman Brothers and after hearing Hittin' the Note, I don't want him to. I'll buy his solo stuff and see him live though
