    I'm in tears. I've been deaf for 8 years, and I longed to hear this again. It was my only wish. I've made a cochlear implant earlier this year and now I can, with some difficulty, actually hear it. thanks, science.

    Always loved the Allman Brothers. Loved to hear Gregg sing . I am 59 and seen Gregg Allman at Duke University in 1975 paid 4.00 for a ticket one of the best concerts I ever seen. Then seen him again in Cary NC in 2015 also seen them in 1974 at the August Jam in Charlotte Motor Speedway. Will always love to hear Gregg Allman sing.

      Lise Woodall we named our daughter Jessica for their song. She was really close to being a Melissa mainly because this is my favorite Allman Brothers song.
