Alan, one simple question. Why do I never get tired of listening to this band?

It's nice hearing you say that given everything that has happened to Dickey.

Here is something I was shocked to read in Galladrielle's book. She talks to Joe Dan Petty who picked up Duane at the airport when he came home from playing with Derek and the Dominos. Joe said Duane told him "I'll tell you one thing, Clapton's got nothing on Dickey Betts." Now, I'm not into the guitarist scorecard thing. I love both Eric and Dickey's playing. But I thought that was a beautiful tribute to Dickey. Someone who doesn't get enough credit (especially in those ridiculous Rolling Stone Best Guitarist of All Time lists) for being the great guitar player that he is.

Not to take anything away from your book which I loved, but Galadrielle's was fantastic. I think the difference is that your book is band centric while Galadrielle's was Duane centric. I very much enjoyed the level of detail that she went to in writing that book.

What do you think of an Allman Brothers Channel on Sirius/XM?
