........42 years of my life I have listened to him and the Allman Brothers. Countless shows and actually got to met him to sign a concert promotion poster. There will never be another. I had bought tickets and airfare and hotel nights to see him on 06/14 and 06/15 in Savanah, Georgia this year and I live in New York and after those were cancelled I feared the worse would happen, and it has. He was one of the few that actually could sing  Sam Cooke's ; '' Change Is Gonne Come '' with true musical conviction.' That '' generation ''  and style of music has really come to a close. This is a huge loss.              
One of the best southern rock vocalists,that will be truly missed.

Rest in peace.


Kenny.

For anyone interested in how Greg got his start in the industry have a look at the Muscle Shoals documentary - its on youtube,  also a better copy on Netflix.
A great way to fill in two hours 
+1 on the Muscle Shoals documentary--world class.

Absolutely a great loss! "Time goes by like pouring rain"

RIP Greg. Thank you for making the sound track of this lifetime that much better. The Allman’s were just GREAT!

To all, can you imagine if you could bring someone back from 100, 200, 300, 1,000-years ago to listen to the music that we’ve all had the insane fortune to experience over the last 50+-years. Astonishing!
