Brother Duane Allman died 50-years ago today. That was a long time ago.
Bobby Whitlock has some interesting stories about him.
I may be a bit confused about one story, but I believe a shirt that Eric Clapton had given him was being worn at the time of the accident. Whether it was or not, apparently somebody close to him took the shirt, cut it up and sold it piece by piece.
I think I also heard that if he wore a helmet, he would have easily survived the wreck. Conflation certainly possible, I'll admit that.
