Thread Name: Derek, Jeff, and the Dominoes?
Subject: RE: Derek, Jeff, and the Dominoes?
I think Ento has his Allmans mixed up. Gregg's the one that could aptly have been called "richcokeboy" at one point in his career. "Layla" was cut when the Allman Brothers Band was still relatively new on the scene. I don't think "rich" could have been an apt description of anyone in the ABB until after Duane died.

And I'm also jealous of Wesley having seen Duane with the Dominoes. I saw 'em in Jacksonville but without Duane. Someone in the audience called out "Where's Duane Allman?" and Clapton said he was on the road with his own band. It would have been great since Duane was a local hero, having lived in Jacksonville and played in a local band before the ABB came together.
