Subject: RE: whats the most deadly boring ?
I don't think "Eat A Peach" is for me either. However, I did buy "Brothers and Sisters" when it came out and was rewarded with the classic instrumental "Jessica" and a likeable country song "Ramblin' Man". The Allman Brothers really were a breathtakingly homogenous band with a supreme level of musicianship. They also had a real history of various types of roots music. Unfortunately they were very poor songwriters for the most part. Some people would rather hear weak songs played by brilliant musicians. Others would rather hear great songs played by average musicians. On the whole, I would probably fit into the second category. Oddly enough, Chuck Leavell is now the Rolling Stones bandleader.
