Duane Allman


On this day in 1971, Duane Allman was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident at the age of 24. He made a huge impact for such a short career in my opinion. While reading the Lou Reed comments today, I wondered what Duane's sound would be like in the pitch perfect computerized Miley Cyrus packaged product music world we live in if he had survived. I guess I will have to dust off "Layla" this evening in his honor.

Raks, Yeah it's a good song. You can get it at Amazon on the album it originally appeared on, "Motel Shot" or on, "Best of". You can also get it as a duet by Patty Loveless and Dwight Yoakam on Patty's album,"Dreamin' My Dreams", which I haven't heard but sounds intriguing.
Warning!! I read some reviews of "Dreamin' My Dreams" and learned that in the name of "copyright protection" if you play it on your computer Sony installs a root kit that is really bad news. Don't go anywhere near this album!
This thread was serendipity because I had about given up on finding a new "Motel Shot" CD until I went on Amazon and found that a re-mastered version of "Motel Shot" had been released in June of 2013.
