One thing I've noticed about watching Allman Brothers Band concert videos from various years: It doesn't matter if it's Duane & Dickey, or Dickey & Warren, or Dickey & Derek, or Derek & Warren -- you're going to hear some of the best rock guitar playing that you've ever heard.

@@Rational_Mind I think they were still amazing during the many years that Warren & Derek were the two guitarists, after Dickey's unfortunate departure. But I agree that we have to give a ton of credit to Dickey. He is an amazing guitarist, he provided needed leadership to the band, and he wrote some great songs -- including what is arguably the best rock instrumental ever (In Memory of Elizabeth Reed).

Warren is great here, he's smoking! But Dickey, my god, Dickey is the ultimate unsung guitar hero! How is he not one of the greatest guitar players ever? Oh, he is in my world.

He is one of the GREATEST.

This has to be one of their best versions of music 🎶 🎵 👌 😍 I ever heard of In memory of Elizabeth Reed. I still listen to the Allman Brothers in 2023.

Hey Dickey ..... R.I.P. ..... and thx for the many good Music - for us ....

This version blows me away, WOW! Dickey Betts is a incredible guitar 🎸 😍 👏 player. I agree with the idea of Dickey Betts , meaning it doesn't matter who he plays with, he's the best 😉! I can keep listening to this version over and over again without getting tired of listening to him play.

In Memory of Elizabeth Reed is fantastic the way it's played in this concert. Great guitar 🎸 work and the music stays with you. May Greg Allman RIP, but their music lives on even after 40yrs. This is one of the best guitar solos ever.

45+ years of Allmans in my head...they are the 8th wonder of the world /:-)

What band has 4 guitar players on list of top 100 ? You guessed it ABB! Best damn live band to walk the earth! Damn I miss them.

Dickey is probably the most under-rated guitarist ever. He lived in the shadow of the great Duane Allman, who admired him and his playing technique tremendously. Then Duane was gone and he must have felt somewhat abandoned by his untimely death but he still had the talent and the belief in the dream to step up and save the band from the immense tragedy they suffered, and did he ever! But he has been a cantankerous asshole at times and he's burned too many bridges, needless to say, along the way. I was glad to hear he made peace with Gregg before he died...

Not even the Beatles, who all things considered there can possibly be no arguement against.

I can't watch this before going to sleep(like right now) it makes my heart want to beat out of my chest it's so damn furious.

As times have gone on this gorgeous tune has evolved into something that is more extraordinary!!!

I never get tired of hearing this in any version. Such a powerful statement from an instrumental!! ABB was nothing short of being absolutely incredible . Woody was another incredible bassist, so melodic,yet powerful. They always have a great bassist.

I’m so grateful I saw this lineup many times in the 90s Absolutely amazing!!

R.I.P. Butch Truck. You will be missed.

Greatest instrumental song ever written by the one and only Dickie Betts! I’ve been listening to the Allman Brothers since 1970. Dickie Betts is the greatest, Skydog even said it “ I’m the famous guitar player but Dickie Betts is the real guitar player.” It takes talented musicians to jam like this. Warren Haynes definitely fits into that mode and I can’t say enough about Allen Woody driving that bass line! Skydog and Berry were smiling down on this performance!

Everyone in this band was/is a virtuoso in their own right which makes it such an incredible band. (Thank heavens for recordings or we wouldn't have all this gravy.)

One of the best guitar solos of Dickey's ever...never ceases to amaze.

Just beautiful man, just beautiful!

Five stars great playing from the whole band the early days of this formation it's still priceless. Thank you

RIP Greg...southern blues rock will never be the same. Thank you!!!

Hooo man,some jam this! Betts living it,Haynes,loving it ,(with some awesome fret), Trucks on point...serious music here.Roll over Beethoven.Can't beat this here wicked symphony .

This is Un-Freaking-believable. *Standing ovation*

Wow , broke a string and recovered right on Time , this could be right off the Vynal I first heard it off of . These guys study ... The are Real Musicians :) QC

The Allman Brothers are the reason I’ll be buying a 57 gold top reissue soon!

Oh I remember them from way back.Hey I was The first teenager to get thrown out of the house for refusing to get a haircut.1965.We all went on to form what we called crashpads at the time.A few of us sold weed some worked a part time some played guitar.We all chipped in to pay the rent and eat..What a great time.Pre Woodstock.Body painting.All of it.They called us hippies.lol..Anyway it was the Beatles that came along in 64 and changed everything including the way we dressed and thought.

Dear Lord How come I have lived so long and only just discovered The Allman Brothers Band? Ok So I'm English ...I found Warren Haynes a couple of years ago and Derek Trucks but this is just amazing. The whole band is incredible and so tight and together.

Notice how Dickey is playing rhythm behind Warren on his own song . So underrated it's silly how he doesn't get the credit he deserves except from true Allman fans who know he was as good as anyone you care to name.

This just strengthens my opinion, of both Dickey and the Bros! Duane and Dickey are the 2 best guitarists from the USotA, and The Allman brothers are the best band from the USotA

It doesn't get any better than this!

DB and Warren really tingle the spine in a way that Derek is not able to,

I disagree, love Warren to the max, but Derek kills this one.

I tend to agree. Ive seen Derek a few times. His playing suits his own band better

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL VIDEO... THE TITLE TO THIS VIDEO STATE'S IT ALL...

So soothing to watch this man play, his body bends with each bend of those magical strings!

God love the Allman Brothers Band....they have played the Sound track in my devious life

i believe this is Betts band from 91 it is Great Southern and it basically introduced a young Warren Haynes to the world who went on to play with the Alman Brothers .

I love them no matter who they play with how they play but especially if Warren is there

Saw these guys that year and others but there energy was absolutely off the charts in 91 unforgettable performance 3 straight hours drummers solo at the END never gonna see this again

Have you ever heard more soul? My goodness sure sounds like love to me. Gracious !

Unbelievable dickie Betts at his finest, Warren Hayes is rocking it to

Best American Band, and one of the best to ever take the stage.

Beautiful how Dickey Betts dives in at about 11:30 on a new guitar after he's broken a string!

I even like the Les Paul he had to pick after the string break more. P90's sound more aggressive and trebly, i like that

That was amazing. Glad to see that so many people get to witness this event.

I saw Dickie in Portland Oregon about 7 or 8 yrs ago, he blew Portland away! I was superbly impressed by his guitar work. Oh ya, he also broke a string when I saw him.... check out @11:12.

This song was so over the top musically it literally required two drummers to fully enhance all the nuances of it !!!
