Derek and Warren. The six string duo for the Allman Brothers Band 2013.

Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes

As I am catching up my blog I already know this pair has announced a hiatus from the Allman Brothers Band after the 2014 tour. I think I understand why and I appreciate the need to slow down sometimes and try something different. I am sure it is a grind to try to run your own life, your own music gig, and be in a name-brand band. My hope is after everyone takes a break it all comes back together. This band has had a fabulous ride and they play the song list in a way few could duplicate. ‘Nuff said.

The Allman Brothers Band 2013.

Walk along the river, sweet lullaby, it just keeps on flowing,
It don’t worry ’bout where it’s going, no, no.
Don’t fly, mister blue bird, I’m just walking down the road,
Early morning sunshine tell me all I need to know

You’re my blue sky, you’re my sunny day.
Lord, you know it makes me high when you turn your love my way,
Turn your love my way, yeah.

Good old sunday morning, bells are ringing everywhere.
Goin to carolina, it won’t be long and I’ll be there
