Hey classic rock fans, I need your help identifying a song again! :(

There's this really long instrumental song that's always on my classic rock station. It's a winding country/Southern rock-type jam with really slidey, twangy guitars and a cool melody. When I heard the Allman Brothers song "Ramblin' Man" I heard a similar sound so it might be them.

So, are there any long (about 7-8-min.) instrumental songs by the Allman Brothers Band that are usually played on radio stations?

"Jessica"?

That would be my guess.

Could it be Marshall Tucker Band's "Long Hard Ride"?

Allman Brothers - Blue Sky?

It's a Dickey Betts song like "Ramblin' Man". It is quite a long jam that's pretty Countryish.

EDIT: Oh, instrumental :(

I'm sure we can come up with it though.

Are you winning contests off of these answers? :)

"[QUOTE]Jessica"?

That would be my guess.[/QUOTE]

Most likely, if you ask me.

Most likely Jessica as Illmatic said, but maybe In Memory of Elizabeth Reed.

^"Jessica" is much more melodic and Countryish than "Elizabeth Reed", though. I doubt it's "Elizabeth Reed". :)

I'm just gonna step in here and tell you its "Jessica", especially if the main riff sounded familiar. A lot of people have heard, but don't know who did it or what the song is.

I missed that countryish part :thumb:

Hey, you missed instrumental :p

A quick sample from allmusic.com says it is indeed "Jessica" by the Allman Brothers Band. :thumb:

So, who wants to YSI that baby over to me?

Someone want to upload that whole album? I can't find it anywhere.

Someone upload [I]Brothers & Sisters[/I], please :(

I third that?

I dont know what Brothers and Sisters is. I guess an Allman Brothers Album.

Yea, it's like 'the Dickey Betts Allman Brothers album'.

Hmmm, so more countryish?

I don't know, I'll I know is that Dickey Betts gets a lot of credit for that album.

How would you describe The Allman Brothers Sound? Kinda like Skynyrd?

But bluesier.

No, more countryish, jamish, less thick blues distortionish, but ive only heard one album by the allmans and a greatest hits by skynyrd.

They both play Country Blues (In a way), but the Allman's are more serious about the two genres, while L.S. adds a lot more Rock.

If that makes sense.

Hmm, The Skynyrd I've heard isnt that bluesy, but then again I dont listen to them.

Not really bluesy, but they have that thick distortion, the allmans are cleaner..
I don't know how to expalin it that well

Skynyrd isn't bluesier, harder, rockier, not bluesier.

Ok thats what I thought.

Cool.

So how long have you guys been into classic rock?

I've only been into it for about a year now.

Um, I been listening to it for my whole life but started appreciating it about a year and a half or two years ago.

Got Led Zeppelin II and High Voltage on the same day.

[QUOTE=White_heat]So how long have you guys been into classic rock?

'bout two years ago. My sister played me The Beatles 1, and I liked it. Then I bought The Rolling Stones Forty Licks in September '03, and I was hooked. I loooove classic rock, especially The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Who, Eric Clapton, and the Velvet Underground.

I started out listening to Black sabbath about 2 years ago, then i slowly got into zeppelin, AC DC, ect... but I've been really really into it for a year.

Black Sabbath was a big part, I found Paranoid and Master of Reality on viynl just after my dad showed my how to work the record player.

I still really like them, its incredible how they make music that is truly dark, not just really distorted and fast.

I always liked the classic rock songs I had heard, but I didn't really start getting into it (or music in general) until about two years ago when the Zep DVD came out. My dad got it for his birthday, and I watched it and loved it.

And Sabbath kicka[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE]s.

Just over a year I'd say. BUt I've tried all genres of rock.

I grew up with it, but didn't start really listening to it on my own until about 2 years ago.

My dad used to play Zappa in the car on long road trips, and my mom would sing CSNY all the time.

I don't know why, but I could never really get into Sabbath.

I'm really grateful for that, but unfortunately I can't use .m4a. Do you have an mp3 or wav file instead?

I'll agree with you there. :)



/a little late, but Mark Knopfler also played on Jokerman ;)

I started off listening to classic rock about 4/5 years ago with AC/DC and progressed from there to Led Zeppelin, Cream and onto psychedelic rock and prog. rock and into some more avant-garde bands.

It kind of works that way. A person slowly gets into prog, and a lot of the time Led Zep starts them off.
