No One to Run with on Both poles.  

eta..these are songs written and sung by Dickey Betts, except for the above, which was written by Betts but sung by Greg Allman.

Back where it all begins for me.  In Memory, Blue Sky, Ramblin Man, Jessica are absolute classics.

I’ve seen them live over 30 times. Back in the day I would see them 3 or 4 times in their annual NYC Beacon Theater run. Set was always different too.

Went with Jessica as I said in the other thread.  Ramblin Man was || close though.  Forgot about Blue Sky, need to give that a listen.  :cheers:

I think Blue Sky is Betts signature song and Betts only. Once he left the band I don’t think they played Blue Sky ever again.

It was written for Betts first wife I think, so I could see them not playing that one

In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. 
 

I believe it was written in a graveyard. Dickey got the name from a tombstone there.
