RIP Dickey Betts

Died of cancer. Also had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. One of the best guitarist. A founding member of the Allman Brothers Band and his band - Great Southern. You will be greatly missed.

It's sad to read almost every month now that a band member of rock groups from the 60's and 70's, my era, has died. Most all of them have lived rough lives back then..drugs and alcohol mostly. What's worse is reading that the last surviving member of a popular band has died...that generation is just gradually fading away. Today's kids just don't know what real rock and roll music is all about and when it all started.
Now its mostly electronic no few instruments.
RIP Dicky Betts
