Duane Allman - B.B.King Medley
"In April '68 the Hour Glass with Duane and Gregg Allman, drove to Fame Recording Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where, without interference from slick LA producers, they could lay down blues tracks. They opened up as never before - fluid, raw-toned, and emotional. Hour Glass' "B.B.King Medley" (chosen to open An Anthology) contained the first prime examples of his expressive blues style. The unmistakable Allman Brothers touch had finally been captured on tape. The group took the demos to their West Coast manager, who said they were "terrible and useless."
