    Live at the Fillmore East is an all time classic.

    Their music will certainly endure.

    A friend took it during Whipping Post 6-8-14 at Mountain Jam, in Hunter NY. Glad I got to see the last ABB show at The Beacon. I'm still more shocked on losing Butch this year, especially after getting to hang with Butch after a show less then a month before he was gone. We knew Gregg was not doing well the last two years. So, his passing wasn't a shocker.

    Butch is Derek's uncle, not his father. Warren and Dickey Betts got together in the late 80's and was part of Dickey's solo album. Then in 89 when the ABB reunited, Dickey got him in with the ABB. The rest is history.

    Even reading about Gregg being in Hospice care for some time now and knowing it was coming just doesn't make any less of a blow.  Damn.

    I stand corrected. I was surprised Dickey got thrown out for drug use because he didn't strike me as a druggie...at least not a major druggie.
