live at filmore, allman brothers ..what do y'all think of it ? one of their best jams i think, but who was this elizabeth reed ?
i have no idea but i love that one, cant get enough of it i also love whipping post and dont want you no more
I'm sure who is elezibeth reed is but, according to dickie betts the anme came from duane allamn fucking this chick in a graveyard and she was bent over elizabths headstone.
I love allman brothers, ive got a 33 min long Elizabeth version.... There are many other great solos Blue sky and high falls for example man these songs take me away !!!!
i haven't heard that one, but my favorite Allman Brothers song is either Whippin' Post or Jessica i knew the Allman Brothers were southern rock, but i didn't really think of them as psychedelic.
In their early days,living together in Macon Ga,band members would often go to a nearby cemetary to jam on acoustic guitars,write songs,etc.The song was named after a headstone near where they hung out. The thing about somebody screwing a girl on the headstone was a flippant joke made by Duane Allman in a radio interview.
dickey was sitting in a graveyard and seen the tombstone with her name on it.its written in the allman brothers greatest hits cd.
i was about to say...fucking a girl bent over a headstone...that's pretty crazy, man. great jam though. i saw the allmans/derek trucks band/oteil and the peacemakers sunday night. the allmans put on one of the best live shows.
