The Dickey Betts Band - Ramblin Man (Rockpalast 2008)

"Ramblin' Man" is a song by American rock band The Allman Brothers Band, released in September 1973 as the lead single from the group's fourth studio album, Brothers and Sisters (1973). Written by guitarist Dickey Betts, the song was inspired by a 1951 song of the same name by Hank Williams. It is considerably more inspired by country music than other Allman Brothers Band compositions, which made the group reluctant to record it. Guitarist Les Dudek provides guitar harmonies, and it was one of bassist Berry Oakley's last contributions to the band.

 "Ramblin' Man" was first created during songwriting sessions for Eat a Peach. An embryonic version, referring to a "ramblin' country man," can be heard on the bootleg The Gatlinburg Tapes, featuring the band jamming on an off-day in April 1971 in Gatlinburg, Tennessee.[1] Betts continued to work on the song for a year, but the lyrics came together in as little as twenty minutes. "I wrote "Ramblin' Man" in Berry Oakley's kitchen [at the Big House] at about four in the morning. Everyone had gone to bed but I was sitting up," said Betts in 2014.[2] Trucks noted that the band acknowledged it was a good song but were reluctant to record it, as it sounded too country for them.[3] New member and keyboardist Chuck Leavell enjoyed the song, noting, "It's definitely in the direction of country but that didn’t bother me in the least […] I think our attitude was, 'Let's take this thing and make it as great as we can.'"[2] The song was inspired by a 1951 song of the same name by Hank Williams.[4]

Otis Redding - live at Montery 1967 (Repost)

Otis Redding (September 9, 1941 – December 10, 1967) R.I.P.


In 1967 speelde Otis op het Monterey Pop Festival, en in hetzelfde jaar nam hij ook The dock of the bay op, maar hij overleed een jaar voordat het populair werd. Drie dagen na het opnemen van dit liedje kwam hij om bij een vliegtuigongeluk in Lake Madison, Wisconsin, samen met vier van de zes leden van zijn band The Bar-Kays. Mede-bandlid Ben Cauley overleefde het ongeluk en James Alexander zat in een ander vliegtuig. Het was de bedoeling om het gefloten gedeelte later te vervangen door tekst. Otis Redding heeft het uiteindelijke liedje nooit gehoord; ze waren het nog aan het afmixen toen hij overleed.

Gene Vincent - True Love (1955)

Vincent Eugene Craddock (February 11, 1935 – October 12, 1971), known as Gene Vincent, was an American musician who pioneered the styles of rock and roll and rockabilly. His 1956 top ten hit with his Blue Caps, "Be-Bop-A-Lula", is considered a significant early example of rockabilly. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
