fryer Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Greg Allman wrote and performed this song, but who made it popular, a long time ago ? The version I am looking for has a nice, but simple, bass line. I can't get it out of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerdragon Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 There have been lots of versions of the song. Stephen stills version is a good one with a prominent bass line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezzaboy Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Yep, The Allmans did it and Gregg Allman also did it on his solo album, Laid back. It is a bit mellower on the solo album. Jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGit Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 The Paul Davison Rocksteady version is brilliant, hypnotic stuff. Perfect rhythm guitar and that rolling bassline is a classic.
