    I’m on the back porch sipping on my col’beer and listening to YouTubeTV Music-

    I really like Warren Haynes of Government Mule—listening to a mix and you always end up with him and Gregg Allman.

    The reason I posted this is to say good music makes EVERYONE feel good!

    I remember when Greg's solo album "Laid Back" was first released...just like yesterday.....

    “All My Friends” is a cover of a song originally released by Southern country-rock band Cowboy in 1971. Cowboy were label mates of the Allman Brothers on Capricorn Records. Cowboy’s founders and writers Scott Boyer and Tommy Talton perform as session musicians on Laid Back.

    The song was written by Scott Boyer, who explained what it is about in a 2015 interview:
    We had to find someplace to live so we rented this old farmhouse outside this little town called Cochran, which was about 30 miles south of Macon. … A few months after we moved in some friends from Gainesville came up to see us, and maybe a month or so after them some people we knew from Tallahassee we knew came up to see us. After that some people Tommy knew from Orlando came up to see us. Then some people from Jacksonville came up to see us. And none of these people ever left. So pretty soon we had 50 hippies living in a three-bedroom farmhouse outside this little town. It was a very conservative little area. And the land lady came out after six months and knocked on the door and said, ‘What do you guys think you’re doing? None of my neighbors will talk to me. They’re all mad at me for renting you the house. You guys got to get out of here.’ And we moved into Macon proper and had to tell everyone else they had to go back to Orlando or Gainesville or wherever, and that was the basis for writing that song.

    From writer Scott Boyer in a 2015 interview:
    I wrote it in a dropbeat time-signature and recorded it with Cowboy that way. A few years later Gregg came up and said, ‘Duane always loved that song and I’d love to record it but you’ve got to let me record it in time because I’ll never figure out that seven-four stuff.’ And I said, ‘You can record it any time signature you want.’"

    That's Ramatam with Cactus and John Mayal of course at the Florida Gym.

    The two Ocala Jai-Alai concerts 8 days apart were fantastic! Check out the ticket stub #'s 155 and 313...not huge crowds.

    I was 19 years old.....

    Couldn’t disagree more - IMO, one of the worst, most annoying songs ever.
