#neworleansmusic The Allman Brothers Band performs "I Walk On Gilded Splinters" on December 3, 2011 at the Orpheum Theater in Boston, MA. Brought to you by Less Than Face Productions.
Thanks"LessThanFace Productions" for sharing all these Allman Brothers takes through RU-vid. For me, they are the best blues-rock band ever, and from the first period with Duane "skydog" Allman 68 - 71 up through the times, they have been composed of good songwriters and musicians - especially guitarists. Since Duane,s Tragic death in 71 when I was 18, I have been a collector of music, interviews, and documentary stuff, so thanks to Filmore East for arranging the concert where the double album was made because it was the hearing of it that started my interest.
Only the coolest of the cool know and love Dr. John's music. So excited to find my favorite band playing tribute to one of Dr. John's best songs. In all my days I never imagined this. Thank you for posting.
I Walk On Glided Splinters Southern Rock style.Derek and Warren are great on the slide. The Sky Dog is smiling from heaven. I also love Humble Pie's version on the Rockin the Fillmore Album.
Classic Bob Humble Pie's version will always be my favourite, if only because it was the first time I heard it, but the Allman Brothers can truly bring it.
Richard Herbert Agreed. Humble Pie Rockin the Fillmore is one of my all-time great live albums along with ABB live at the Fillmore East. Peace brother aka Classic Bob
Classic Bob: You are a rare bird that remembers Humble Pie's version. Timing out out at a mere 23 min. and 28 seconds, this was indeed an excersise in self indulgence, but it was also @ Fillmore East, so nobody cared. It was the 70's, the DECADE of self-indulgence. The Frampton/Marriott guitar tandem is at a peak on this one, complimented very well by the rhythm section of Ridley/Shirley. Of all the American rock songs in the world available for a British band to cover, I've always wondered why they chose this one.
Some people think they jive me But I know they must be crazy Don't see dey misfortune Guess, they just too lazy J'suis the Grand Zombie My yellow belt of choison Ain't afraid of no tom cat Fill my brains with poison Walk through the fire Fly through the smoke See my enemy At the end of dey rope Walk on pins and needles See what they can do Walk on gilded splinters With the king of the Zulu Kon kon, the kiddy kon kon Walk on gilded splinters Kon kon, the kiddy kon kon Walk on gilded splinters 'Ti Alberta Ti Alberta ('Ti Alberta) Roll outta my coffin Drink poison in my chalice Pride begins to fade And y'all feel my malice Put gris gris on your doorstep Soon you'll be in the gutter I can melt your heart like butter A-a-and I can make you stutter Kon kon, the kiddy kon kon Walk on gilded splinters Kon kon, the kiddy kon kon Walk on gilded splinters 'Ti Alberta
Peut-être la meilleure version de ce morceau, les solos de Derek et Warren sont stratosphériques. Seulement 47k vues... Et six connards pour mettre un pouce en bas, comprends pas.
dafunkfiend Duane Allman played on Johnny Jenkins version of this song. It is on Jenkin's album "TonTon Macoute" and "Duane Allman - an Anthology Volume II"
Jim Dorman Thanks for responding to my question, however, I already have that amazing album (Ton Ton Macoute) I was specifically after a recording of this track with Trucks playing.....I'll keep looking!
Y’all gotta STOP with this Southern Rock BULLSHIT now, Rock & Roll was born in and is THE SOUTH! You don’t ever hear anyone saying Northern or Yankee Rock do you? Damn.
