Long-time ABB fan & huge Davis & Coltrane fan! Love hearing them talk about their influences, how other music impacted / influenced them, and how they honored it in their playing! That quote by Palmer about Duane’s play is spot on!

Thanks for your posts … Long Live ABB!

I just don’t know if we will ever heard another group of players with more talent and as diverse as this band.

Maybe in another genre but not in R&R. They were the true rebels that didn’t have any intention of going “corporate” as long as Duane was alive. Amazing.

They played for the love of the music! And we loved them for it!

fortunately there are a ton of bands who carry the ABB spirit. Just saw one such band—Tedeschi Trucks Band—last night in Chattanooga, actually.
