Duane Allman
The founder and leader of the Allman Brothers Band were Howard Duane Allman, the band that allowed him to play along with his brother, Gregg Allman. Tragically, Duane died after a crash, essentially smashing his internal organs on his motorcycle. He was only 24 years of age. His expressive slide guitar playing and his improvisational ability on the instrument were well-known to him. The Allman Brothers’ album “Live at the Fillmore East” is often cited as one of the best live rock albums ever released.
