From the minute he first heard them, producer Tom Dowd knew the Allman Brothers were the real deal. “I was in Macon on business when I passed the Capricorn studio. I heard this music coming out, and it was swinging. They were blues they were hard driving, they were everything, all in one. I said, ‘I have to record these guys. Send them to me in Miami as quickly as you can, they’re ready now. Just the way they are.’” 📷Twiggs
