Duane Allman

Duane Allman

Undoubtedly one of the greats, particularly when the Coricidin bottle went on the finger and he blasted into the slide stratosphere. His achievements in the studio (and not just on Layla) are unsurpassed, and you could make a fair case for him as the greatest session player of all time. Sceptics are pointed straight towards the 7CD Skydog set. Listen and marvel. Iconic     File under: No one else played like that!
