Damn, 2017 about as friendly as 2016 to celebs. My favorite Allman Bros. song is Jessica, never pass it up when it comes on.
Seems like they made the 5 minute song feel like 3, at least that's how I remember them. They had some classics that will never go out of style.
Yesterday my wife and I were on our way home from the gym and we had some 80's station playing and some goofy song came on that was #1 back in the day and we both joked about how some music doesn't stand the test of time and we wonder how we ever liked it to start with. Allman Bros. still sounds as good to me today as it did 20 years ago.

If you want to get bang for your buck, select the 34 minute Mountain Jam if you see Eat a Peach in a bar jukebox. Not a bad song on that entire album. Greg Allman was just 25 years old when that masterpiece was released and 21 or 22 when he wrote Whipping Post.
Yes, The 80s songs don't hold up like the 70s. For instance, who could ever forget Afternoon Delight?
I like Gov't Mule's Live... With a Little Help from Our Friends (Trucks and Haynes project) I think good music stands the test of time. Disco was 70's so we should pump the breaks on the decade battle. Aside from Vietnam, '69/'70 might be the pinnacle of Humanity. The cars, the music, the grass and the BUSH! Good times!
Here, ya horn dawg!
I spent the 70's listening to Southern Rock, The Stones & Boz Scaggs.

It's good, but my vote is for "Waiting for Columbus" by Little Feat.
