This video got posted to a guitarist's discussion at work and I just got around to watching it. All I can say is: 8)
Thanks for the link Boogie. :D
Is he playing in open G? This would be a good song to learn. 8)

Wow that was awesome. Makes me regret not playing my acoustic much.
He doesn't get a lot of credit for it because he's mostly known as a singer/songwriter and keyboard/organ player (not to mention the fact that his brother was such an extraordinary guitarist) but Gregg Allman has always been a pretty decent acoustic guitar player in his own right. Cool video, and a good version of this song.
I understand he taught Duanne to play his first chords....
The studio version of Come and Go Blues is good, but this version blew me away.
Dan, yeah. It is open G: (DGDGBD)
I admit my ABB history is lacking. I always thought Greg was strictiy keyboard (organ, piano, etc), but he did the rythym on Mellissa at a show I went to in August.

I saw ABB in August as well & he played that tune.
