I just can't figure out what the reason is for me.

Dickey Betts leaves us with an example of a brilliant lifetime of music making. We are all better for it!

Warren fits perfectly with the band.

This song has always brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes happy ones others sad. Today is both. Dickie has been a hero of mine for a very very long time. Rest in peace you amazing man.

Dickey is now the Ramblin Man in the Blue Sky. RIP, sir.

RIP, Dickey Betts.

Any band with two great drummers is A-OK with me

Dickey sure made the cowboy hat, jeans & boots look Great! ❤🎉

Blue Sky’s all around Dickey, thanks for the music - you’ll be missed. R.I.P.🤍🤍🤍

Perhaps we can all take solace in that Dickey, Duane, Gregg, Berry, & Butch are all jamming together again, upstairs. Bless them all for the music & memories they gave us.

I used to sing this to my young son when he was dying. He miraculously survived and it still brings tears to my eyes to hear it. Thank you Dickie.

RIP Dickey.. Thank You 💙

Goodbye Dickie. We love you.

They're not just a band,they're a Southern Tradition.🇺🇸

Godspeed Dickey Betts!

Dickey Betts never stood in Duane's shadow because Duane realized how great Dickey is. Any Allman Brothers fan knows that the lineup with Dickey is always better.

Dickey is great but they certainly were a better band with both Dickey and Duane on guitar and with Gregg singing. Dickey was not Duane's replacement they were both Great and better together than apart.

That's some guitar playing right there!

Man can Warren belt out the harmonies! Love it!

i love the phrasing of dickey betts. i never heard guitarist had this melodious licks.

One of my favorite Dickey Betts Songs loved this version of the ABB. Dickey wrote this song about his time with his ex wife Sandy Bluesky who was Naitive American. He changed some of the wording to make it more appealing to more people. He sang about the Blue Sky rather than a woman he loved. But he new and most diehards know it was about his ex wife. Regardless of that its a beautiful song with Dickey's tone and the meshing of the twin guitars together.

What a guitar player.Dicky is on a class of his own.

As soon as I heard, let’s find his music, born in 1962 , during the 70s, Allman Brothers band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Pure Prairie League, Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker, etc. southern country, believe it or not I saw a lot of these bands down on Cape Cod, Massachusetts at the Cape Cod Colosseum. Rest in peace, dickey Betts ❤ we are all better people today for you in our lives.

These guys forged a place in history that can never be changed. I grew up listening to these songs .....and 5 decades later we cant get enough of the purity and soulfulness of the greatest band in America......The Allman Brothers Band.

Always loved this lineup. Greg, Dicky, Butch and company with Warren and late great Allan Woody.

Thank you Dickie, your music will never be forgotten.

Just a Great Southern Rock Band !!!! Hands Down The BEST !!!!

Years ago Dickey played my hometown with his solo band, and I got to interview him. Wonderful, charming, soft-spoken - I'll never forget it!

This is what music is supposed to sound like. Raw talent. Long may you run.

What a jam! Doesn't get much better than this...

Dickey Betts, Greag and Duane were the best together. I can't imagine life without DIckey Betts writing Blue Sky and all the songs Greg wrote.. Just like Lennon/McCartney

One of my favorite band allmam brothers

This is a prime tone recording of BlueSky.

For many years, I connected the Allman Brothers Band to just one song, Midnight Rider, and thought "what's the big deal with this band?" Long story, but I was eventually exposed to the studio recording of Blue Sky. It was a transformative experience - pure magic. And it is still magic every time I hear it. After that, I made a point of listening to more Allman Brothers, and then I understood what the big deal was with this band.

Dickey is now reunited with his Brothers. There's a helluva jam going on in heaven today.

Great Version. Warren amazing slide player and Dickey was at his best during this period....

You are correct my friend Warren can hang with any one when it comes to the slide. Mr Betts is a guitar god . If you think of a true rock star ,that would be Mr.Betts

The 2nd best line up besides the original!! Peace of mind in these troubling times.

Spirit turned us on to replace Duane with Warren.. Wow can't even amalgamation of trying to fill those Shoe's! What a Fanatic job He did for the Allman Brothers Band.. I Thank Spirit and Warren .. The Show must go on!! Even Dusty Hill told ZZ Top to keep on playing. Thank you for this Awesome video

Blue Sky ......No other song sings the South like it.....

From watching these videos, they never play this, or just about anything else, the same way twice, on purpose, I am sure, but they are always great. They always leave me shaking my head, in wonder.

Duane started the band and was definitely the driving force but after he died Dickie kept it going and was a damn good song writer. If it weren't for him I would have never gotten the chance to see The Allman Brothers. It really tears me up to watch him struggle today. Incredible musician

Sorry I never saw Dwayne. Before my time. As it was for many of you. I did have the pleasure of seeing this version of the ABB and I can say this was the best besides for the original. Dickey was special.

Doesn't matter what we think. Dicky is a natural and one of the greatest. God i wish I could play like him.

Dickey is one of the greatest rhythm players ever. No doubt about it. His rhythm playing is really what makes his solos so great because even they themselves are extremely rhythmic as well. Dickey is one of the few players that could play a 3 minute solo that you can hum every note to for years to come. So melodic it's insane.
