I got the key to the highway
Billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here running
Walking is most too slow

    Eric Clapton and Duane Allman jamming together. Doesn't get better than that. Period.

    A classic Tom Dowd quote below. Crom, I wish there were more than one D & D album.

    "Engineers,hit the Goddamn Tape Machine." The classic fade-in to playing already underway. A special thanks to 'Sam The Sham' who was playin' it in a nearby studio at the same time. The Boys liked it. Thank you also, 'Big Bill' Broonzy.

    @BlueOclock..I hosted a "Try to Remember the 60's" LSD Party recently. We tripped out to Purple Owsleys Acid in front of the TV Set one night with "The Ed O'Sullivan and Son Bar Show" playing on TBS and saw Musical Guests Hand Puppet Topo Gigio spin the Plates;Senor Wences was doing that still annoying mouth popping thingTiny Tim was on Ukelele while Miss Vicki & Ed sang...Mom always did like Ed best!

    Hmmmmm......I always thought it was Ed Sullivan that shouted "YEAH" at the 5:05 mark. At least that's what I was led to believe. I know he was a big fan of the band, and he even taught Eric how to play Freight Train on the acoustic guitar.
