I lived this song... I was the guy who could field strip a broken keg tap blindfolded. Make the beer run at 1:30 am in my 71 Oldsmoboat. It was fun until it wasnt.
this is one of the best songs ever written. two of the best riffs ever(the intro and the one right when the chorus starts) two great solo great lyrics that are perfect for gregs singing. it does not get better than this.
Masterly the way Betts downshifts his brash solo into a melody which Haynes picks up and then accelerates into an awesome finish with both guitars wailing.
Collectively the Allman Brothers have had 4 of the finest guitarists ever in the band at one time or another. Duane Allman, Dickie Betts, Warren Haynes, and Derek Trucks. There's not many bands on earth that can strut that on their resume.
If you were lucky enuff to catch the ABB rebirth from '87-95 (w/ Dickey), you know it was RnR history! All ABB variations were magical. This era was only 2nd to Duane+Berry imho! Peace to All Brothers and Sisters
Had the pleasure of seeing these guys so many times late 80’s thru the 90’s! Those high school road trips, keg in the back, packed with friends….yup when I think about the ‘ol days sends a chill up my spine! Thanks boys for a great run!!
man this is the ONLY best live preforming band to walk this earth no pedals no extorstion fuzz box none of the crap just dicky tuned low amp up and nothing but soul flowing from those fingers love this man
I know this isn’t going to be popular but this is the best lineup ever and I’ve been a big fan from theirs from their start. Greggs voice was at his best and with Dickies picking and Warrens slide which has a smoother soulful sound than the Duane or Dereck. Love reflective songs like this.
This is a masterpiece. I've just started listening to the last Allman Brothers Band incarnation's albums, and this is completely stellar. It's on par with the greatest Southern Rock songs ever made.
You have to get the goose bump chills at the first break from 2:23 onward. Classic Allman Brothers song structure. Warren, and Dickey along with Gregs Voice is a force to be reckoned with!!
I am glad to say that I was able to see these awesome fellas play during this exact tour in 91 in Indianapolis, IN USA. I am still a fan but I wish they could get Dickie and Warren back up on stage!
"I try to do my best but the devil gets in my way" What else needs to be said other than Mr Betts was on top of his game on this night as well as the rest of the boys
Lord, it sends chills up and down my spine...yeah indeed this song does, fuck runs in a row here on my computer, wonder when the neighbors come iver...23rd time now or something ,fuck, so great!!!!!
everytime i hear one of their soultouching songs i lose a little bit of my heart and soul.......in each and every tear. and every time we lose one of you, each and every ABB fan feels the same as me.....we lost another member of our family.....
I have to agree with so many others saying this is the best version of this song. Every member of the band is absolutely on point. That hand over from Dickie to Warren's perfect slide section in the solos was a thing of beauty, Gregg's voice was so powerful, Woody's bass was amazing, Butch and Jai killed it. If I had time machine I would see this concert in person. I've got the DVD so I'll upload sometime for everyone to enjoy.
Was lucky to see them in Cumberland County Auditorium back in early seventies I was stationed in Ft Bragg NC no money. A roadie let me in back door, prob Red Dog. Changed my whole outlook on life. Duane was gone eight months later!
Love this record I bought it when it first came out it was like you know one of them Allman Brothers without the other brother's records and they did come on to the kitchen from Robert Johnson great record
Great slide players..,,, George Harrison, Warren Hayes, Derek Trucks,Bonnie Rait ,Duane Allman,Johnny Winter, Robert Johnson and Elmore James to name a few. Warren was perfect interacting the riffs with Dickie live just beautiful!

I Spent three great years in Augsburg and saw many Bands over there . The Germans aren't as enthusiastic as Americans are during live shows . It means in no way any disrespect that is just how most of them are . They are jamming in there own way . .. Long Live ABB!!!
blue eyed soul at its very best. He would have been even better had his brother not died.Something in Gregg died as well RIP you and skydog are together again
I saw two shows at the Orpheum in Boston with this lineup. Some of the stuff made it onto the live album, An Evening With The Allman Brothers. The album's cover picture is from the Orpheum. They were smokin' in your face shows. It was a great time to catch em.

The best band that ever was
Amen to that!!!!!
For Sure

Please don't forget Dangerous Dan Toler.
dont forget JIMMY HERRING
Don't forget Jack Pearson
Jack Pearson is the Master of all of them.
+ Jack Pearson
ABB in rare form! Hear greggs voice? Sends chills up and down my spine!
❤
I agree..
Greg really sang with passion on this song.
Warren Hayns could tell..
He was grinning at one point of song
"When i think about the old days.....sends chills up an down my spine"... so true...
If you were lucky enuff to catch the ABB rebirth from '87-95 (w/ Dickey), you know it was RnR history! All ABB variations were magical. This era was only 2nd to Duane+Berry imho! Peace to All Brothers and Sisters
Dickey Betts chops and Warren Haynes slide, does not get any better than that folks !!!
Rene Mailloux completely Agree. This lineup is my fav, and this Band has had Amazing Musicians with Duane, Derek and Jackie Pearson was no slouch !!!!
If only we could have brought Duane back!!
Amen brother
I could listen to this every day, wait, I already do
Had the pleasure of seeing these guys so many times late 80’s thru the 90’s! Those high school road trips, keg in the back, packed with friends….yup when I think about the ‘ol days sends a chill up my spine! Thanks boys for a great run!!
Gregg is in peak form. Love this version!!!
Such an underrated tune. Monster riff.
Agreed on both counts. For me, one their modern anthems along with "Soulshine".
Jesus Christ. Just played this AGAIN-it's just MINDBLOWING. The Brothers at their very best
'Nuff said
One of their best songs. Too bad most folks have never heard it. RIP Greg Allman!
Terrell yea, no shit!
man this is the ONLY best live preforming band to walk this earth no pedals no extorstion fuzz box none of the crap just dicky tuned low amp up and nothing but soul flowing from those fingers love this man

Warren Haynes is a sick slide player and always was and always will be.
Greg is really beltin this one out ........ just kickin ass !!!!
Damn! Gregg was bad ass!

This lineup was kicking major ass back then! Best live rock act going then!
This is one Heavy, Powerful tune. One of the Allman Bros. Best. Great Vocals.
best version i ever heard...................
One of the best live tunes ever played !
What a voice! One of the best blues singers ever!!
Binging on allman brothers. Never too much. Another great song. Meticulously played.
This is a masterpiece. I've just started listening to the last Allman Brothers Band incarnation's albums, and this is completely stellar. It's on par with the greatest Southern Rock songs ever made.
Very powerful song, Story of My Life
The original great southern rock band !
Awesome song!!!!
This music would just wear me out listening to it. Very percussion driven and Gregg Allman sure had a lot of range.
amazing..one of the best songs I've ever heard
Awesome song. Love the Les Paul and Strat together. Such a sweet sound.
RIP Gregg - you will ever live in this song !!!!
Legends. All of them.
Dickey, Gregg, Warren. If we had Duane, it would be unexplainably great
Captain Allen Woody Barrage Specializing
THNK...U...MUCH..!!!!..!!!..😢
💥Wow first time i've seen this. Out fucking standing 💯
You have to get the goose bump chills at the first break from 2:23 onward. Classic Allman Brothers song structure. Warren, and Dickey along with Gregs Voice is a force to be reckoned with!!
Jesus that voice. So real. Riveting.
Best band ever and ever will be.
God I miss Gregg Allman What an influence he had on my life
What a duo, Betts with the Goldtop LP and Haynes with the Strat. What a band!
I am glad to say that I was able to see these awesome fellas play during this exact tour in 91 in Indianapolis, IN USA. I am still a fan but I wish they could get Dickie and Warren back up on stage!
Wasn't into ABB when they were so popular, but now they're my favorite group. Love me some southern rock!!
I have those fellings and I1ve been listening this tune for years!Too much underrated song!
spent last 3 hrs on that same RVZ and L S which brought me here to listen to warren who is where iti s at now -- rip L S
ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER......
Masterpiece!
This is the live sound that I love w/ABB. Absolutely jamming, and sounding at the very top of their game.
my kind of music, mann!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good God! Greg's voice holds that sublime pitch all the way through.
Wow!! They don't play 'em like that no more. Great stuff!
The ride-groove at the end reminds me of a runaway train. Love to hear Betts and Haynes trading guitar phrases. Great song!
Badass rockin tune
"I try to do my best but the devil gets in my way" What else needs to be said other than Mr Betts was on top of his game on this night as well as the rest of the boys
Wow.Had to be so hard,to carry on after Duane and Barry.Allman Brothers,forever.
RIP Gregg Allman, Allan Woody and Butch Trucks
Lord, it sends chills up and down my spine...yeah indeed this song does, fuck runs in a row here on my computer, wonder when the neighbors come iver...23rd time now or something ,fuck, so great!!!!!
Awesome is all I need to say!!
No words to describe this except out of this world!😊best version I have seen of this song. Thanks for posting
It truly is a GREAT song!!! Such a HUGE groove...
everytime i hear one of their soultouching songs i lose a little bit of my heart and soul.......in each and every tear. and every time we lose one of you, each and every ABB fan feels the same as me.....we lost another member of our family.....

Best line up ever for Allmans, forget it Derek even though you are very good
+frank maffa Agree!!!
agreed. woody, warren and dickey made up for gregg's drunkeness
derek's stage presence sucks
Absoallmanbroslutely
great southern rock will always ride free
Classics just keep gettin better n better!!! Rock on Brothers!
Was lucky to see them in Cumberland County Auditorium back in early seventies I was stationed in Ft Bragg NC no money. A roadie let me in back door, prob Red Dog. Changed my whole outlook on life. Duane was gone eight months later!
The Brothers were Mothers!
Absolutly one of the best recordings of this song ever. Amazing, brings back those old days. These guys still hold some of the best music ever!
It totally kicks ass
Kicks ass like no other. ABB and Skynyrd were completely different bands, but never was there a better band than those two - ever!
mr haynes, he played sooo fine on that slide, by tge way that strat rocked hard
So did Dickie's Les Paul
Love this record I bought it when it first came out it was like you know one of them Allman Brothers without the other brother's records and they did come on to the kitchen from Robert Johnson great record
Dickey, Warren and Gregg in ALL THEIR GLORY - kicking total ass. ABB and pre-crash Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote the book on kicking ass!
Great slide players..,,, George Harrison, Warren Hayes, Derek Trucks,Bonnie Rait ,Duane Allman,Johnny Winter, Robert Johnson and Elmore James to name a few. Warren was perfect interacting the riffs with Dickie live just beautiful!
They say everyone has one great song in them, the story of their life. This is Gregg's GREAT song...
beautiful!
great video great song thanks for sharing with us .
I love this song! I wish more people have heard it.
greg allman you are the best....
excellent tune
He was supposed to play with ZZ Top a few months back, but cancelled, for "health" reasons...... Snitches get Stitches.......
Samuel Luria health reason we're stage 4 liver cancer. Bet you feel like a real genius now! RIP the great Mr. Allman
My neighbors love this song
TRYIN TO DO MY BEST, BUT THE DEVIL GETS IN MY WAY
RIP TO THE GREATEST GREGG ALLMAN!!!
Love Dickey's chops around this time.
Ditto. Sure do miss that fool. He's really really out of it these days. Sad.
Samuel Luria - sad, really. He seems really bitter nowdays. Should have cleaned up :/
I was there in Köln, Germany in 1991 ! ! !
I'll comment when I pick my jaw off of the floor.
A Woody and Warren composition...the birth of Go'vt Mule.
One of their best songs, love this tune. Greg, you're one of the best in my book. The chemistry of this one really fits.
real raw sound --- best yet for old time ==== saw warren at xmas jam 08,09 unforgetable shows ---- it is all good---
Dickie starts it off with a monstrous solo then here comes Warren with that sweet angel slide gotta love it. Brings chills up and down my spine
This song speaks such fukn truth about addiction cuz I felt this way too many times

I'am German, I know some people who do not emphazise much, but they are in need of that music like bread and water
sheer poetry.
This band keeps getting better n better… what a tune.. Dicky Betts just a fantastic guitarist
my kind of music!
This is totally awesome!
I saw two shows at the Orpheum in Boston with this lineup. Some of the stuff made it onto the live album, An Evening With The Allman Brothers. The album's cover picture is from the Orpheum. They were smokin' in your face shows. It was a great time to catch em.
