I know the Allmans are the most popular version, but the original recordings don't have the "hum" outro which I think is awesome.

Anybody have a favorite version of this song that is a must listen?

There is also a great version by the Radiators with Gregg Allman sitting in recorded at Tipitina's back in 2003. It also has the Bonerama guys sitting in on horns.

It can be found on the 2 CD "Earth vs. The Radiators--30th Anniversary"

See I'm the opposite. I like the first version. I feel like the Laid Back version sounds a little too "polished".

Either way, they're both great
