Interesting construction of this question.

Beauty of the Allman Brothers is their breadth and diversity so too hard to pick one... especially since Dickey ad Gregg are such different, distinct writers.

I will go with "Dreams" for my Gregg song.... "Blue Sky" for my Dickey... and AFE "Liz Reed" for instrumental glory.

Man, the whole thing was crazy.

One of the most fun things that happened actually was turning the guys onto the allman Brothers.

When we left Beijing on tour, hilarity consistently ensued... the craziest night was probably at a private club in Changsha, Hunan province.. we played three places in three nights.. one chain... this one was "private club for successful people." It was a Tuesday or weds night and I thought it would be slow, but the place was packed... it was a like a swiss ski chalet...all wood... people kept private bottles of wine and liquor there..

A couple of mobsters types in front were drinking bottles of cognac... and one of them loved us so much.. he came up onstage and gave me and lit a giant cuban cigar.. a Russian dancer brought me shots of vodka... the mobster's molls pulled me into their booth at the end of the night... and grabbed my legs and whispered in my ears, licking them... and all they wanted was to be introduced to my great bassist Zhang Yong.

And I have a bit of this on video and photo. You want to see?

Very, very well. I love that video and always have. Amazing job.

What kind of student? I have emt him and congratulated him... I forget where that was now... lots of shows and Allmans event blurring together.

Link is legit, people - click through and be amazed.

Just saw the reply... a raggedy verison of thos song captures the mobster lighting my cigar and the Russian bringing me a shot.. watch closely.
