    Definitely saddens me. I'm a huge Allman Brothers fan. :(

    Here's an appropriately southern silver dollar.

    One of the greats, will be missed. "Melissa" is regarded as one of the best songs ever by acoustic guitar players:

    Wow...that's sad. I listened to him a lot growing up.

    So many great ones are leaving. RIP.

    One of the greats.

  • WalkerfanWalkerfan Posts: 9,752 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Just wanted to add----I liked some of the stuff that he did in the late 1980s and early 1990s....particularly 'I'm No Angel' (1987) and 'End of the Line' (1991).

    'Ramblin' Man' (1973) was, of course, a classic favorite.

    He lived a free and easy, rebel lifestyle and made some GREAT music along the way.

    He will certainly be missed.

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    Went to go see the Zac Brown band last night and they did a great cover of the whipping post

    Phil Lesh & friends played Midnight Rider at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester Saturday night, the song with the "one more silver dollar" reference. You might recall Gregg having coins stolen from his home a number of years back.
