Damn. This getting old sucks. It's like I'm hearing this constantly these days.

Dammit. His son Duane is carrying the torch and has his sound.

Every time I hear of a legend dying I think of Willie and Waylons duet, Heroes (1982). And they're right. One by one, and as they fall, soon they'll be no heroes at all.

Saw them at Jazz Fest many years ago. Great live band.
Jimmy Page just turned 80. He's got to be feeling it today.

Dickie was already recognized as a great guitarist when Duane died, but the fact he learned to play slide on the fly to take over Duane’s style and sound elevated him to another level.
Plus, he took on a bigger role in the band including writing songs.
There’s a story that he once got hungry while riding down the highway on his motorcycle, so he pulled into a field, slaughtered a cow, and cooked a steak over a fire.

Very sad... yes. But be grateful for all that music he gave us.

In memory of Elizabeth Reed... and Dickie Betts.

It's Dickey. Not Dicky, Dickie, or Da'Kee.

RIP
Never got to meet any of the band members but was friends with the original roadie & co writer of Midnight Rider Kim Payne who we just lost last year
I am certain there is a nice jam session happening

I just listened to an 18 minute version of Blue Sky with the sun roof open.

I’ve seen his son many times. It’s good, but not even close to Dickie.

He wrote Jessica, as well.
As an instrumental focused around the piano solo which was written by Chuck Leavell, I think it should be a co-credit.

I would believe it if it was their road manager Twiggs Lyndon. He was legit crazy speed addict.
