DESCRIPTION:
Now, he tells the unflinching story of his life, laying bare the unvarnished truth about his wild ride that has spanned across the years. Bringing to life the carefree early days of the Allman Brothers Band, Gregg holds nothing back - from run-ins with the law to meeting girls on the road, from jamming at the Fillmore East to experimenting with drugs. Capturing the Allman Brothers' ongoing, triumphant resurgence as well as his own recent fight against hepatitis C, Gregg presents a story as honest as it is fascinating, providing a glimpse inside one of the most beloved and notorious bands in the history of rock music and demonstrating how, through it all, the road goes on forever.. The story begins simply: with Gregg and his older brother, Duane, growing up in the South, raising hell with their guitars, and drifting from one band to another.

This is an honest and raw account of a man's life in music highly recommended Abby This is a very honest and raw account of Gregory's life in the music world as well as family and friends. His honesty is refreshing. He recently passed away, and as he was before my time I didn't realize how talented he was as well as very good looking. Listen to his song " Melissa" on you tube. It's beautiful. He has 4 children in the music business carrying on his voice and legacy. Michae
