Another year comes and goes and the World loses great talented people. Hear is part one to some of them that left a impression on me at some time during my life…
Singer/Songwriter Tom Petty
Guitarist J. Geils
Gregg Allman and Butch Trucks from the original Allman Brothers Band
Comedian Jerry Lewis
The Original Batman Adam West
The original rhythm guitarist for Y+T Joey Alves
Guitarist Dave Hlubek and bassist Banner Thomas from the first Molly Hatchet lineup
Dick Gautier “Hymie” from the TV show Get Smart
Gomer Pyle Jim Nabors (miss him singing before the Indy 500)
Walter Becker from Steely Dan
Forgotten Rock Classics 
No one gets out of here alive.

How fortunate we are to have video of Duane playing.

When I saw that video it was necessary to tie it in to Gregg and Butch

That such a list demands multiple parts is a trenchant reminder of our collective, not just creative, mortality.
Death cut a swath through jazz-rock legends this year. Wonder, will they be featured?
(That’s my favourite Allman Brother epic, btw.)

Going through the list I did see the jazz-rock legends that has passed but my knowledge of them is very minimal so I will have to leave them to the experts like you. As I told Jim there was no way I could not use that version of “Whipping Post” as Gregg and Butch have now joined Duane in the after life.
