Remembering Twiggs Lyndon

As a young man growing up in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, having no conscious knowledge of a Southern Blues Band, “The Allman Brothers Band”, a Capricorn Records act managed by the president of the company, Phil Walden, from Macon, Georgia, I was about to embark on a journey through time and people I otherwise never would have met leaving me with many fond memories and thanks for having lived a life in that era place and time. This is my story! My first recollection of Duane Allman came too late to appreciate his musical career while he was still alive, it took his untimely death (October 29th, 1971). Twiggs Lyndon was Duane Allman’s most devoted advocate, also the first Road Manager of the Allman Brothers Band.
