Ran into Greg in Macon, Ga at a convenient store off exit 6. Amazingly, no one else was there except for a couple of Huddle House customers. Greg was filling his Harley and was saying he needed to ride with me as a joke because I bought a 12 pack. I walked over to the pump and shook his hand. I never acknowledged that he was a superstar and after a couple of laughs we went separate ways. Just a humble and kind man that was larger than life who felt like a friend to everyone.

Was fortunate enough to see Gregg Allman and Friends at the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach around 1999-2000.

You are completely right with what you said, I was just thinking out loud I guess about the great singers I've been blessed to hear in my lifetime. Sorry if it came out as a diss to your comment. Was just carrying on the conversation. Much peace to you bro, you have great taste in music.. 👏👏

This was on my birthday and the Corvette I bought is 1987 also. A great year and so sad we lost Redd Foxx and Gregg Allman.

I'm glad I saw Greg when I did.

Redd looked at Gregg’s cigar like he was getting passed a joint. 😆

It could easily have been a cigar with a nicotine/weed mix, i'm sure it's been done

Two gravel-voiced legends. Red could've probably done a nice rendition himself, "Though I might steal your Cadillac, I'll bring you back a Rolls."

Thanks for posting that , big Gregg Allman fan ,nice to see him again and Redd to .

Fantastic 😅 I've given my Allman brothers music to my nephew and niece! They luv it in a few

many thanks don giller, priceless is this capture of true icons.

Man oh man, Redd Foxx was hilarious in this like minute and a half appearance.

Scott C Greg so classic

Just from reading the title I can't even imagine Gregg Allman and Redd Foxx on the same program.

I could listen to that voice every day. 😍

Felt bad for Sid, a silly mistake (we all make 'em) immortalized in this clip. Sid is a monster talent.

What a true class-act! Greg stepping aside and turning limelight over to (walk-on promoter) Redd Foxx ..with dignity and grace.

@@oldpanamacitybeach It was obviously planned. Paul knew to launch into the S&S theme; and Gregg's attitude was like, "there you are!" I know Gregg wasn't especially shy, but with the Allmans it was always about the jam, so I can't see him caring about a little chat. When you're jamming, you hang loose, and Redd Foxx could hang loose, so it was cool. On the other hand, you'd never catch a guest with a cigar nowadays....

I think Gregg was quite shy and hated interviews. He was probably very happy to have Redd take over. I wonder how they knew each other?

Larry Hinze ha. Your the prick..

Southern gent, massive talent. I am ever thankful for recordings and videos to relish over and over. You were quoted as saying " l am a famous guitar player in the band, but l am not the best" referring to Dickie Bett. Dickie Betts, and now Dickie's son. Big love and beautiful music makes my heart keep beating and my lips keep smiling.

The boys as proved the have always worth their salt. Never gets old.......NEVER

It's fun to watch Paul's reaction as they start, he's smiling and nodding with the intro, then Gregg starts in the right key, Paul looks at Gregg's hands, then at Sid as Sid corrects and Paul kind of shakes his head at Sid and kind of sighs at the audience - all in the space of 5 seconds. Fabulous correction and performance! Thanks for the upload.
