I kind of question whether to say this or not, but it's almost like the Allman Brothers turned into an Allman Brothers tribute band.

To be able to take music and do something as profoundly original as what we did with the Allman Brothers, you've got to put some time into it.

I grew up in Georgia, so I grew up listening to the Allman Brothers.

The Allman Brothers 1969 to 1971... were all about... jumping off the cliff... Just taking music and being adventurous with it.

I have so many great memories of the Allman Brothers early days. It was an incredible time.

When we started the Allman Brothers Band, there was this great new technology that allowed us to get exposure: FM radio.

When we started Allman Brothers, Atlantic Records kept telling us there was no way it was going anywhere.

I was not a big Allman Brothers fan but I could relate to that because that is what the flavor of the day was at that time - at least it was like that for me.

With The Allman Brothers, we made two studio records that were OK, but the first really great album was the live one, 'At Fillmore East.' We were a live band, and it's one of the reasons we were able to stick around for 45 years.

I have the distinction of being the only member of the Allman Brothers who has never missed a single show. I have played every single show the Allman Brothers have ever played.
