Eric Clapton & Duane Allman - Jam 5

- Recorded Live at Criteria Studios, Miami, Florida, USA August 02, 1970.
A few uninspired days into the Layla sessions, Dowd, who was also producing for the Allmans for their album Idlewild South, invited Clapton to an Allman Brothers outdoor concert in Miami, where Clapton first heard Duane Allman play live. The Dominos were sneaked into the show with the help of Dowd and sat between the riser and fans below. At the concert, Dowd distinctly remembers:
"Duane was in the middle of a solo; he opens his eyes and looks down, does a dead stare, and stops playing. Dickey Betts is chugging along, see Duane's stopped playing, and figures he'd better cover, that Duane must've broken a string or something. Then Dickey looks down, sees Eric, and turns his back. That was how they first saw each other."
Formal introductions were made after the show. Eric invited the entire band to Criteria Studios for a jam. After the concert was over, they all came back to the studio and jammed until approximately 6:00 the next night, Dowd remembered. "They were trading licks. They were swapping guitars. They were talking shop and information and having a ball no holds barred, just admiration for each other's technique and facility. There was no control. We turned the tapes on and they went on for 15 to 18 hours like that. You just kept the machines rolling. I went through two or three sets of engineers. It was a wonderful experience."
Those jams can be found on the second CD of The Layla Sessions: 20th Anniversary Edition. After the all night jam Duane had hoped he would be able to sit in the studio as an observer while the Dominos recorded, but Eric would have none of that. According to Dowd, Clapton told him, "Get your guitar. We got to play." When Duane arrived at Criteria Studios on 28 August to play on "Tell the Truth", the sessions were lifted to a higher level.
After the jam sessions Clapton invited Allman to become the fifth and final member of the Dominos, but Allman demurred, remaining loyal to his own band.
After the recording of Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, the group undertook a drug-riddled and vice-prone US tour that didn't include Allman, who had returned to The Allman Brothers Band after the recording process. However, Allman did perform two shows with the group - at Curtis Hixon Hall, in Tampa, Florida, on December 1st 1970, and at the Onondaga County War Memorial in Syracuse, New York, the following night. - Hudba
One of the best guitar duos EVER! What a shame they only had a short time together, Duane brought out the best in Eric. They challenged each other, and you can hear it in the licks. I still miss you, Duane. Best slide in the world, all time!
I couldn't have said it better!
👍
You right man
What he said
Absolutely
I first saw Duane playing with Delaney and Bonnie at Carnegie Hall of all places.....Eric had just finished his tour with Delaney and Bonnie in England so I thought he'd be coming to the states next with them....got tickets thinking I'd see Eric Clapton with Delaney and Bonnie..... instead there was this guy with long blonde hair wailing his ass off and low and behold it was Duane Allman......that was the night I said to myself I want to play like that guy .....he was magical on that stage .... I was 17 in 1969..... I'm 70 now and still play....
Awesome! Duane had a way of elevating and inspiring the musicians he played with... czcams.com/video/USYcoIZUU8o/video.html
Remember Duane Allman, and Never forget Eric Clapton. Two of the worlds best.
Duane Allman, Eric Clapton, Bobby Whitlock,Carl Radel and Jim Gordon. You won’t find 5 better musicians than these guys. If beauty was a minute this would be an hour! Thanks for the memories fellows
For all they have done, I would give them a month. I hear you bro.
Livin in Tulsa...
@@williamrichards3707nope, it was Miami actually after a allman brothers concert... Duane invited the Derek and dominos to a all night jam recording session.
Clapton is playing so well here with the rhythm its unreal. I love how Duane just hangs low in the first half then takes us into outerspace
All time banger.
My neighbors said they enjoyed too
Mine called the police
How in the fuck 😳 can anyone not like this music??????‽???
My cousin in the next state called complaining it wasn't loud enough.
@@hippopotamus6765 awesome my dad was THE HEAVY, "turn that mess down! you'll go deaf!" I am STILL listening and I am fine, yes because of my dad and now I'm old and I STILL MY MUSIC 🎶 LOUD!
Cool
I got turned on to this by an older brother after he came back from duty in Vietnam in 1971 while growing up in Cleveland, Ohio. After that, I was done with pop radio forever. Long live WMMS F.M.!
Are you kidding me? Freakin awesome...a trance is right...not many places in this entire universe like these 18 minutes.
I don't know how old this is but with my missus at work and me on 2 weeks off and a bottle of green ginger wine and a big pot of beef and vege stew bopping around the kitchen with my hair hanging down so to speak I am in heaven.
This is the kind of funky soul groove that Clapton would have found unachievable with Bruce and Baker in Cream
Nobody ever Quite like Duane Allman, Never Will Be!
Eric and Duane . . . the guitar gods . . .
Perfect. I still don't think most people know who we lost.
Like Tom Petty. Blackberry Smoke is carrying on 🌄. Miss Duane to. Adios 🐴
I’ve listened to this jam many times. Each time I’m amazed how they push and influence each other. One, if not the best guitar jam ever!!!!
The reason I picked up a guitar 38 years ago.
Also the Reason I put it Down..to listen to these two play beyond the instrument...to be able to plug my Consciousness into a recording like this...get urself a Good D.A.C and small Tube Headphone Amplifier a set of Quality Headphones...and be transported back in Time ...back to That Room and Just Listen like Thiefs...steal the moment...Time travel.. in the Best Possible Way...Dowd preserved it..Documented the Miracle of Creation..two masters playing off the Immense energy of The OTHER...IMORTAL TO THOSE WHO WANT TO ACCESS THIS TREASURE ❤❤❤❤❤😁😁😁😁
Tremendous! Any yet unheard Duane material is a treasure!
Even Eric.. listen to him with Leon Russel on some stuff that never came out.
Duane Jam about 8-9 minutes in is absolutely mind blowing !
The guy could generate powerful beautiful sound like no other !!!
Spent a day with Duane, Gregg and the others in early 71. Will never forget.
What I would give for that memory, lucky!
My Big brother turned me on to the almond brothers back in 76 .i was ten then, when I put Duane on My list of one of theee greatest guitar players in the world. I'm 54 now,and I to would give him some of my years.
Eric just threw out more licks in one jam than I've been able to learn in my whole life.
Oh boy then u gotta listen to In Memory of Elizabeth Reed by the Allman brothers at Fillmore East. Duane’s solo
That's why he is Eric Clapton and you and I are not.
This is music from heaven. One of the great guitar jams of all time - and very few people have heard it.
That's right I have never heard of them doing this play out jam so Dame wonderful 😊
What 50 years ago, they'll b rocking to this in the next century 🤩
The first few minutes of this jam are some of the best guitar play I've ever heard. So much passion, groove, feeling and soul!
There are times when you hit the bottom of the deepest barrel and not much can pull you out. This pulled me out and saved me.
Been there! Glad you're out too! ✌
God bless you
Oh yeah, baby oooh yeah!
Perhaps the two best guitarists born
It was called JAMMING!!!!!! This band will never be repeated PERIOD!!!!!! Lol Rock On!🏅
Thanks for that intro. Such a "not overproduced" array of organic soul and blues. I think that's part of why so many guitar players love Duane's sound. Although he was playing at a level of creme of the crop, he played from the heart. Sweet, so sweet.
Another hour of this would be just fine with me, sure miss the brothers
There's two qualities to Duane Allman that others didn't have. He was a dominant force and he was an emotional player. He made others better around him with a fortitude every second that pushed forward. Listen to interviews of the people who knew him. Also, understand he came into the Layla sessions and made that album. Derek was so down and out. I love Dickey Betts. But Dickey was pushed by Duane to be his best. Dickey wrote his best songs then. Listen to Betts solo on whipping post from Fillmore East. Its beautiful man. Emotional. Give credit to Dickey but Duane was there pushing him AND the whole band. He was a genuine leader.
He pushed Clapton to be his best too. No "slow hand" with Duane around!
They played together for hours/days at a time when they met... sadly no one was there recording most of it.
Very well spoken friend
How did those 24 yr old kids get so good? My god !!!!!!! Sheer genius. What a pleasant surprise. I never knew these recordings even existed.
I know right? I knew people in high school who w/in a year of playing, became so good and could literally play anything. Amazing.Natural born musical geniuses=hard work=passion.
@@RShea-lp9wk one of the best guitarists (in this vein) I've ever heard was playing at an insane level in high school in nowhere Canada back in the early 90s. Had a passion for it and spent every waking minute practicing jamming and gigging. It's wild watching that level of talent blossom in front of your eyes.
When you upstage God, that's doing it right.
Being from India and never had the chance and opportunities to listen to these singersand musicians of the West, I really feel unfortunate. Even the present Indian generations know nothing about the great artists of the West. Musicwise India is finished.
WTF WTF WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was 13. And by the time I got truly listening, I was having kids and was rather precoccupied with them! Stumbling on this now! Insane talent and love in their groove!!!! Jumping for joy xxxxxxxxxx
Dwain hang in brother !!! Vinny
they could play 3 weeks like this and i would still be hypnotized.
This is one of humanities great treasures!.. What a great place to spend 15 minutes!
Eighteen minutes and twenty four seconds to be exact!
Duane is head and heels above
This is fabulous! Once again, the music saves me ❤ Times like these, this goodness lifts you right up. The road goes on forever. 💞
I met Miss Bonnie at a book signing in Nashville. She was just like I'd hoped. Open, loves to laugh, nice lady. It was Duane's daughter's (Gladrielle) book signing. Special day! 🍑✌Eat a peach for peace. 🍑✌
The energy, the musical brilliance, the inventiveness, the era, so far away now...the music remaining as the profound connection to a time long past...this jam is for me profound. Clapton and Allman, profound. The loss of Allman, profound. Clapton still around, all, it doesn't get much better than him. Dicky Bettes Great Southern inspires but this is more like the finest port wine, or the smoothest joint one could ever smoke. Jam 5 just gets me cooking overtime all the time. There is not much like this in the world today - a far different world than the road these guys went down. The loss of Allman at such a young age is made all the more poignant and important by listening to genius like this. How do people learn to play music like this? How can they dream ump these rhythms and sounds? So brilliant. So compelling. And Allman gone for so long.
2 of the GREATEST doing what they do. Music never dies.
It’s a shame music like this doesn’t exist anymore. Drinking beer,smoking pot,and just hanging out with friends is now considered a crime. These are the same people that make you do random drug testing at work and pay hundreds of dollars for Taylor Swift tickets.
My 2 favorite rock/blues guitarists ever!
Derek and domino's album changed my life as a 16 year old. Duane was so talented and looked like such a nice guy.that group was together, for sure. so sad Duane didn't get to live and grow to his potential. such a great loss.
+David Ward I put on my Sky Dog t-shirt and still crank it up.Often.
Ed Nowalk great album. My friends all had a house in the country side.crannked that album 24 7
+David Ward My favorite LP of all time, by far... And I'm 62, and into all kinds of music.. Also saw the Allman Bros. in DC about a month after the "Layla" sessions... Duane was on fire! The whole band had us all spell-bound
+George Gilkenson George I am warped with envy. I saw the ABB in England and sadly they were without Duane however it still was a marvellous gig. Regards mate.
The two most melodious guitarists jamming together. Heaven on earth!
Design Studio slash? hahahaha
This is damn good.. could have been better if they had Rory Gallagher too here
I've seen over a thousand band said both of them together where to the greatest of ever Helman brothers are awesome Eric Clapton still going on and if you were still here Duane Allman would be considered writing the greatest and they would probably still be together
Clapton may have had a 6th sense to lay down as much as humanly possible- Duane was a shooting star dazzling brilliant passing through our galaxy- Thank goodness we have these to remember their stunning collaboration
A great duo. Wish we had more! Classic 😊
would love to hear the whole 18 hours
Two of the greatest guitarists of our age, both at the height of their powers.
Pretty incredible. Wish I was there. I was around then, but never saw most of the greats live. I was in the Army for much of it, but did see Janis, Sly, Muddy Waters, the Dead, Paul Butterfield, the Stones, a few others. Records and tapes sufficed. This is a good reminder of those times. We needed the music to keep us going, still do.
Duane--I still cry for you. I'm 81 now. Wish I could have given you some of my years.
What a wonderful thing to say.
Gail Halldorson
10 months ago That was sweet Gail....keep rocking...
MORE HERE NOW!!!!! m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2955610564483120&id=100001026151518
Bless you Gail. No one is really gone as long as someone remembers them.
@@tenorsfan7492 oh yes!!
Slowhand and Skydog! A gift from heaven
He is was not slow!
Skydog, best ever
@@rickmark9625 that's Claptons bonafide nickname, SMH
@@8sec85gt Slow hand. But Clapton should be called Fast hand.
@@rickmark9625 he's getting his cleanest sound ever on that Strat .I had no idea this gem was here. only thing missing is Buddy Holly.
Superb jam, captured right there on the spot - yes, this is music history - and the pictures, posters and cover art here bring the era to life as well. The spirit of hope, soul, a generation on the move, the love of music is right there in these pictures - now reeking with nostalgia, even to those of us who were not even born yet in 1970. I love how relatively un-produced, un-fixed these photos look compared to the airbrushed, glossy pics of hip people in music and movies in the last decade.
Duane, absolute genius. What he could have done.
One of the classic jams ever recorded in my opinion.... Just Plain good music.
I had this on as I drove though the Keys about 15 years to a military assignment. Window open sunshine..
I got tuned in early 70's i'am 62 play guitar and love the Dominos! TY UTUBE
Gratefully these wonderful Musicians keep living on thru the Music they made--Enriching my heart mind and soul each time i hear them... RIP Duane & Gregg
I was 4 years old when Duane Allman passed. I've been listening to his music since bout high school and never heard this till recently. Gone but not forgotten and am thankful for this music he left, it's kinda like hes still here
I'm RonDog and I'm for real. I'm 66 years old and I love hearing a jam with Eric and his friends. Don't forget Duane Allman and Boz. I don't have a dime but I love the songs.
Love that slide,Great Jam by both Duane and Eric
We thought we were so innocent then. Life was different, but it got serious very soon. I had been in the Army when Clapton was playing with Duane Allman, wasn't aware of him until I bought Eat A Peach in 1972, when Duane was already dead. I suppose it was symbolic. At least we have the recordings. He was so great.
Clapton jammed with Duane and Clapton jammed with J..J Cale. I think Duane and J.J jamming together would have been sick. Thanks for uploading this.
Duane allman,,,,,my very first favorite guitarist at 5 years old,,,,,,still do the same
Creator Yahweh blessed us with the best music ever..keep Your soul on the mend and the road goes on FOREVER 😀🙌💜
Awesome, thanks. Never did see Duane play. He's beyond description.
Seen both play,amazing two of the best. MISS hearing Duane live!
Just..have..to..love..these..Marathon..JAM SESSIONS!! ✌️
Remember when we were young.... we shone like the sun.....
Some otherworldly licks here by two of the best guitarists in their prime.
Finally! Someone complimenting both players without a foolish who's better comment.
@@timhoovermusicman your quite right
@@rileymcintosh4852 Absolutely agree - this is not a competition. Respect for both.
Toying with musical genius. Magnificent music so well done.
Dwayne's guitar puts me in a trance we were robbed of one of the best
i liked JH but i loved duanes playing so much more, yea and the other guy playing he's not bad either lol
I feel the same way ,it takes you places like a journey
I don't think we were robbed, I think we were blessed for the time we had him.
@@CDwayneFerguson so true. And we are still blessed because of all his recordings. I had the honor of seeing the Allman Bros b4 Duane died. Awesome concert. So thankful for that memory!!!
it's just so profoundly novel. his boy is pretty good too.
9:05 Duane's slide comes in like a blazing fire. Amazing.
Gregory Tyska ...It doesn't get good until Skydog!
Sorry but Allmans slide sounds awfull, like Ronnie Woods!! I prefer Mick Taylor or Rory Gallagher!!!
Thomas Jensen please never, for your own safety, utter those words in Macon Ga
@@thomasjensen3214 Lol ! You're funny dude !
@@j.rollinsbrunson3671 yep, but I speak the truth!!!😁😉
Amazing Mind Blowing Sound! Thank You you made my night! So much Talent what a great Duo!
I'm under self isolation this helps keep me sane thank you
Thank god for tommy dowd hes the greatest guy of all time the most humble man i ever knew hes the man who got eric and duane together and put all that great music together for us to still be enjoying i miss tom so much
Those were the days my freinds, we thought will never end, but alas every good thing must have an end. But it leaves a very sweet residue and that clings to your heart.
It did not leave me
When your too busy listening to reply.
I wasn't even born yet back then and I love that sound and the music from back then
It’s called : memories
Well put!
I enjoy hearing Duane Allman jam with Eric Clapton SO much more than Jerry Garcia!
September 27, 1971 I drove to Dallas to see the Allman Brothers play at the State Fair Music Hall. Wrecked my car on the way and had to hitch hike to the show. That is a great sounding venue, a concert hall rather than an arena. Best live band I have ever seen live, and I've seen some great shows! I'll never forget the way they played and how Duane directed the whole show with subtle cues and his inspired guitar work. Waiting for a ride after the show I got to talking to a member of the "Children of God", a cult loosely based on Christianity. They tried to recruit me the whole time I was waiting to get a ride home. What a crazy night!
Glad you resisted the cult antics of the COG. They used to tell the girls to go out and find boys and have sex with them to bring them into the cult. They called it "flirty fishing." Interestingly, their cult leader was a Jewish guy named Moses David (I think he adopted that name, but I'm not certain). In 1976, I came to the place of faith in the Messiah, (Yeshua in Hebrew that literally translates "Salvation"). The Angel told his step father, "you shall call his name Yeshua (Salvation) for he will save his people from their sins," Matt. 1:21. I've been held by God's grace in the care of His Holy Spirit for almost 40 years. I am thankful daily for protecting me for false messiah's and religions that put people in bondage. The Truth, Messiah Jesus, will always set you free!.
Well said Steven Rowitt...
They snagged Danny Kirwan out of Fleetwood Mac. A shame!
sorry it wasn,t danny kirwin it was jerimy spencer Fleetwood mack slide player he still belongs
I remember "The Children of God." No disrespect to anybody - but if you let them "save you" you could always get a box of sandwiches or something to eat! Bumped into them at Mardi Gras, concerts, etc. when I was 15 to 19 years old. Back from 70 to 74.
I was at the Live in Tampa show. I have heard it was the only show with Duane. Don't know, but it was awesome. There was a long delay because Eric broke a string. Duane carried on jammin. This was the days before backup guitars.
When giants walked the land.
We stand on their shoulders. Go see TTB. You'll be glad you did. Or check out Samantha Fish.
Yeah- how long before Eric breaks a hip?
@@stefanschleps8758 saw her here .outstanding.
@@TharpaD Hasn't he been talking about retiring for some time now? Though I can't see him giving it up completely anytime soon.
@Louise X Tedeschi-Trucks, along with Warren Haynes and Joe Bonamassa still carry the torch. And then there are others like Jonny Lang, Samantha Fish, etc. The blues won't disappear anytime soon, thanks to them and others...
This is insanely good....
Lawdy. I have to partied to some really great musicians when I was in college. The Allman brothers and Dicky Betts were the just ONE of the musical groups of theirs and my time. I was young and in college. Got my head bad back then and just rocked with some like minded ppl. Baby Boomer‼️
the best jam session around
Duane Skydog
The best of the best. I miss you and your brother a lot. See y’all soon
It was,Is , and always will be!!!!! Their Music Lives On.
18 minutes of Duane Jamming in the studio.BRAVO...
Duane was best.I grew up listening to his work.
Thanks for posting this. I love stuff like this. Just a bunch of great musicians jammin' out, playing music just because they love it.
Un dueto sin par, sin duda... Duane era fenomenal, en esta grabación tanto Eric como él se lucen con lo mejor que hallaban en sus guitarras...
A good ol' fashioned "let's put a healthy buzz on and jam for a while" tune.
Ya midnight, ya know something is up at the 7 minute mark. Let's do a couple lines Eric. 8 minutes whoa!!! 9 minutes Duanne blows the roof off of the studio. And who says you can't play better when high HaHa.
@@joesmok4567:
The problem is that drugs might help for a while but when they consume you, you begin to think you can't play without them and even when you play sloppy you think it still sounds good.
@@midnightrider7648 Ya I agree. Look at all the great musicians that went over the top. Peter Green is a great example of what you are talking about. Even Keith Richards realize this and put a end to it. I'm cool to that.
@@joesmok4567:
I'm the last person to lecture.... but drugs are so seductive. It happens to more than guitarists, however it is euphoric then your quality of life begins to diminish. Shaking hands with the devil.
Great jam..thanks. Duane's tone just screams out.
OMG! This is so cool! Who cares who is playing what part, it's just fantastic listenung to them all jam! So much talent!
Duane is just the best! So superb!
I recently watched two films on Amazon Prime - the 1st about the beginnings of the ABB, focused on Duane and the 2and film was how the band carried on without him. Both were excellent for any ABB fan.
Also, just yesterday I watched a CZcams video of the ABB with EC at his Crossroads 2013 festival where Warren Haynes, Derrick Trucks and Eric Clapton got ir on with "why does love got to be so sad" Damn, if Derrick isn't the reincarnation of Duane!
Truly sad I never got to the Filmore East back in 71 ...just a little tyke still in middle school and barely listening to anything remotely what I consider worthwhile music.
Currently on a Duane Allman bender. I want to hear everything he ever did
Don't miss Duane playing Blue Sky live: czcams.com/video/fLw7P_LATOQ/video.html
Gone but not forgotten, this jam sums up my life as I remember it....IT''S ALL GOOD...Still Groovin' ..... The Fatman
My favorite LP. Kept me company -for days- August in Italy, as hubby had to do work. Top 5 if stranded on Island. My favorite Rec. Studio 'cause Criteria gave birth to "Layla". The vocals on Layla make me cry 'cause they are so full of pain and longing. A masterpiece, for sure...
Play it loud and play it proud.
My favorite LP of all time, by far... And I'm 62, and into all kinds of music.. Also saw the Allman Bros. in DC about a month after the "Layla" sessions... Duane was on fire! The whole band had us all spell-bound!
I am 67 & still loving this music. Rock on George & live long & happy!!!
I am 50 and discovering it now...im sure i listened to this music on the radio when I was younger...because that was all there was at that time...the radio took me all over the country. it was great.
Karen mikasko , I hope you really enjoy this kind of music & pass it on , rock on and live long..
I listen to alot of different music, but keep coming back to the 70's for some reason.
Jeff H , I am the same age and think we were lucky to have grown up with so much wonderful music. I still enjoy the music I listened to as a teenager.
Nice collaboration effort. Both legends, both vintage cool tunes.
Great jam to roll some buds to. Love ya Duane!
best guitar buddys ever
A Real JAM session!!
