  1. "Whipping Post" is a song by #TheAllmanBrothersBand. Written by #GreggAllman, the five-minute studio version first appeared on their 1969 debut album The Allman Brothers Band. The song was regularly played live and was the basis for much longer and more intense performances. This was captured in the Allman Brothers' 1971 #double live album #AtFillmoreEast, where a 22-minute, 40-second rendition of the song takes up the entire final side.

  5. Low Country Blues robinbannks.com/2026/01/18/475 #GreggAllman, #LowCountryBlues, #Music, #NowPlaying

    Low Country Blues was released on this day, January 18, 2011. It’s produced by the legendary T Bone Burnett and is a gorgeous album … one of my fav solo efforts from Gregg Allman.

  6. "Melissa" (sometimes called "Sweet Melissa") is a song by American rock band #theAllmanBrothersBand, released in August 1972 as the second single from the group's fourth album, #EatAPeach.

    The prompt is Idle
    The Allman Brothers Band, “Idlewild South” 1970

    The #AllmanBrothers' second album was reissued with their first eponymous album as the double album Beginnings after their bar-raising live album “At Fillmore East” and the popular success of “Eat a Peach.”

    I know what you’re thinking: #SouthernRock, rednecks with guitars, but while they arguably launched that genre, let’s remember their jazzy, dare I say, #JamBand side, and two drummers - TWO DRUMMERS - that drove songs like pile drivers, not to mention #GreggAllman's world-worn vocals and those two lead guitars. OK, the guitar thing became a southern rock cliche, but when you have musician's musician #DuaneAllman on slide, it’s a whole different animal.

    Tragedy and excess would reduce the band to a less adventurous shadow of its former self, but their first two albums are a gumbo of #BluesRock weight, instrumental finesse, southern soul, and inspiration.

    Tuesday’s Gone

    On this day 50 years ago Lynyrd Skynyrd released their debut album, ‘Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd’.

    “Train roll on, on down the line
    Won’t you please take me far away?
    Now I feel the wind blow outside my door
    Means I’m, I’m leaving my woman at home

    Tuesday’s gone with the wind
    My baby’s gone with the wind again”
