At that time our guest, his daughter Galadrielle Allman, was only two. She joins us today to present music from the lovingly curated set of Duane’s music. The music ranges from The Escorts –Duane’s first high school band - to numerous brilliant stints as a sideman at Muscle Shoals helping records by Wilson Picket, Aretha Franklin and others. Our conversation of course includes Derek and The Dominoes – Duane set a fire under Eric Clapton’s sessions for the band’s one-and-only album – and the Allman Brothers. Galadrielle Allman is also researching a biography of her father who she never got to know firsthand.
