The older I get the more I like the Allman Brothers band. When younger sometimes I needed something heavier although I liked & listened to them. Now it gets better every time I hear those songs.
Duane & Gregg will ALWAYS be the best. Duane the best guitarist and Gregg the best blues singer that ever lived. I know Momma A was so, so proud of her boys. I know I sure am! 🙏❤️🍄🎸
I was born in Atlanta and I am southern raised. I am proud to be a southerner and our southern heritage. The south has produced tons of great artists from Little Richard to Ray Charles, James Brown, Lynyrd Skynyrd and of course the Allman Brothers. I recently visited the Big House and took the tour and videoed it for my You Tube channel. I also took the walking tour through Macon and hit all of the spots where many of these great artists performed throughout their careers from their early days of being unknown to their days as well known acts. Gregg seemed like he was such a humble man. I wish I could have met him before he died. I also visited their graves for my video, in honor and respect to him, Duane and Butch and Berry. I plan on visiting the Big House again and taking my time without doing a video and reading much of the memorabilia there.
I went to the Big House in February 2024. Man if only the walls could talk. It was a spiritual experience. You have to go. I went to Rose Hill Cemetery to the gravesite. I’m glad I got to go and experience it.
I remember visiting the Big House Museum just a few months after Gregg's passing on to be with the Lord. It is an awe inspiring place and I recommend it highly to everyone who may have plans to pass through Macon, Bibb County, Georgia USA ...However, I am not sure of their safety protocals in light of the coronavirus epidemic. 8/8/2020 SRC
It's not that far, just over in Louisiana. I need to take my dad soon. My middle name is Duane because of his love for Duane, Gregg, & the Allman Brothers Band. And my favorite guitarist & band ever is Skydog & The Allman Brothers Band. So it would be an incredible trip. I think my dad would have to almost physically drag me away from Macon once there, though. To be that close to them, the Big House, FAME, etc...would be a dream. Unfortunately I could probably never leave where I'm at for long because my daughter and only child is buried here. She was almost 2 yrs old so I barely got any time with her at all.
A man walked up to me in Conyers GA and was asking me what kind of truck was I driving? It was a railroad spraying tank truck. I sed man you are Duane Allman and your band has always been my favorite but I was never able to see a live performance. “He sed no man Duane died many years ago but most ppl say, I’m Gregg but he died cpl yrs ago “ and he smiled...same tattoos, jewelry same demeanor as the guy in this interview. A ‘real gentleman’. I’m not sure what the purpose of this encounter was but I asked him “are you Gregg Allman or an angel sir” and he only smiled! Rest in PEACE GREGG ALLMAN...I hope to shake your hand again in heaven sir!

Gregory you were one hell of a beautiful man rest in peace
This is one of the best mini bio's on Gregg I've seen...RIP Gregg...love and miss you...
Brilliant man. R.I.P. Bear in mind that he was 21 when he wrote Whipping Post.
Wow didn't know that !
17 when he wrote his first song Melissa.
Duane & Gregg will ALWAYS be the best. Duane the best guitarist and Gregg the best blues singer that ever lived. I know Momma A was so, so proud of her boys.

Gregg Allman what a story and legend.
Will always be my favorite band.
Visiting the big house and their grave tomorrow. Thanks for the music brothers.
Amazing man and music. Miss you, Gregg. ❤️💔❤️❤️
Traveled to the Big House in March 2024 all the way from Maine.Worth every moment!!
Love Greg’s be music! Gone too soon!🥰
We miss you Gregg. Rest easy my friend.
3:31 - Kind of creepy that he's standing 20 feet in front of the exact place he's buried now...
RIP, Gregg...

Watching all these recent interviews and such it's not that long ago that he was doing well, it's too bad that he is gone now...
Duane and Gregg, my original two rock heroes way back when
Gregg Allman was one of the two greatest blues singers ever, the other being Muddy Waters.

Its worth the trip. You cant miss it.
ABB is my favorite band. RIP Gregg, Duane, Butch and Berry. I'm sixty-five. So weird that they're almost all gone now.
Big void in my life, Love those guys
Duane died 49 years ago today, the greatest guitar player ever, RIP Duane and Gregg
Duane Allman died on October 29, 1971 at age 24.
Best ever
went there this summer, SPIRITUAL AND AWESOME
I love you Gregg Allman!!! ♥️🙏🏻
He had just cashed his first royalty check
Such a great voice. Rip
I'm so glad he chose to stay a professional musician, but I have to admit, I would have LOVED to have him for my dentist!!!!
LOVE

That's really interesting. What about his voice? Was it the same as Gregg's voice here?
Nothing gritty about his voice, smooth like top shelf bourbon!
That was an awesome piece can you see that house? I'm 3 hrs away? Thanks for sharing!! :) 👍
