Jesse 'Ed' Davis / Leon Russel / The Allman Brothers Band
The Doobie Brothers / Eagles

Jesse 'Ed' Davis / Jesse Davis 1970 
ファーストアルバム。ゲストにクラプトン、レオン・ラッセルなどを従えて(これだけでも彼の実力が解る)独特のウネる野太いギターとヘタクソだけど味のある声。気分良いねぇ。ジャケットの絵は彼のおじいさん(インディアン)が描いた絵。

Jesse 'Ed' Davis / Ululu 1972 
セカンドアルバム。ファーストの明るさはちょっと消えつつあるが、レイドバックしる。My Captainの「Captain」とは彼が最初にいたバンドのリーダー、タジ・マハールの事。

Leon Russell / Leon Russell 1970 
彼がピアニストという事で敬遠していたが、とんでもない間違えだった。このサポートメンバーで解る通り、カッコ悪い訳が無い。声が最高!! あまりの感動に同じものを2枚、オレに買わせた超名盤。

The Allman Brothers Band / Brothers & Sisters 1973 
デュアン・オールマン、ベリー・オークレーが死んじゃった後に出来たアルバムですが、楽曲が全部良い。2人の居ない穴を感じさせないアルバム。

4. Jelly Jelly Allman
5. Southbound Betts

The Allman Brothers Band / The Allman Brothers Band 1969
オールマンのデビューアルバム。その前にアワ・グラスとしてアルバムも出してたり、セッションミュージシャンとして活動しているので、新人とは言えないな。デュアンのスライドギターが冴える!ツインドラムもカッコ良い!!

Duane Allman / Anthology 1972
デュアン・オールマンの残したプレイの数々が聴ける追悼アルバム。一戦で活躍した期間は短いのに、蒼々たる顔ぶれと演奏している。才能のある人達は才能のある人を選ぶ。スライドギターのオンパレード。堪能してくれ。
