Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 Saw Dickey a few times with the Allman Brothers Band and he was a pretty incredible guitarist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felser Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 RIP, greatly enjoyed his guitar work, especially in tandem with Duane or with the spectacular Warren Haynes. Though I hated "Rambin' Man" the first time I heard it, let alone the 1,000 time!

I had the 45 though I was about 7 at the time and for a long time beyond all I knew of the Allmans was that song and Cher banging Gregg.

mjzee Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 RIP. Â The Fillmore album was simply great through and through. Â I was fortunate enough to see the original band in Central Park a few months before Duane's passing. Â At one point, I said to myself "Isn't that Donovan's There Is A Mountain"? Â Sure enough, when Eat A Peach came out, there it was as Mountain Jam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danasgoodstuff Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 Kind of an oddball example, but even more than the others Dickey wasn't one to be put in just one box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, wore mine out as a teenager, was (and still am) especially mesmerized by the perfect "Hot 'Lanta"/"In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" album side, and by the live "Whipping Post".
