But what a tragic waste if you master your craft to win the world, but in the end you lose your soul.

He was a drummer/timpanist and played for bands like Jefferson Airplanes, and the Grateful Dead. His mentors were Buddy Rich, Louie Bellson, and Saul Goodman who was a Timpanist for the New York Philharmonic. He was good friends with and played alongside Micky Hart, who was a longstanding drummer for Grateful Dead. I can tell you the good ones, get up very, very early to practice, practice, and practice some more before a concert. They work hard at their craft to bring us some of the finest music ears have ever heard on this side of heaven. One of my favorite guitarist today is Joe Satriani. Sad to hear about Gregg Allman... we're losing so many of our great singers and great musicians. But what a tragic waste if you master your craft to win the world, but in the end you lose your soul. I hope before he made his exit out of this life, he got his heart and soul right with Jesus. Like · Reply · 2 · May 29 at 10:49pm · Edited Manage Kenny L. Cobb Jr. Kenny L. Cobb Jr. As a musician - guitarist, we keep on loosing the great legendary artist. Today, no matter what musical genre artist today cannot and would not be able to make music in the raw fashion of the way these Legends did. Autotune and digital media have ruined the artform of music in so many ways. Today, there's way too much musical "make-up" being used. For people here on this thread commenting the way they are, they are not showing the respect, most of you people here know absolutely nothing about the artform of music the way us who are musicians do. If you really did, you'd show respect for the man no matter what. Most of you don't even know what a crescendo or a lyric tag is. Most of you wouldn't know what a falsetto or a chord rift is. Most of you wouldn't even know what a 3/4th drum beat is. Like · Reply · 1 · May 28 at 4:28pm Manage Cynthia Crews Cynthia Crews Many are affected in some or another when worldly icons pass. They do not have to be an idol to you but could have made a significant impression through the work they did. This is someone who will be missed & am praying that Allman made it right with Yeshua before he was taken from this world.

He had no revival; the midnight rider has been caught, he is southbound; he truly was no angel (nor a saint); he did waste the rest of his time; and he will now rather be tied to the whipping post, as his eternal home is hell. Don't idolize these "stars", wasting this life on the cares of the world.. Like · Reply · May 29 at 8:47am · Edited Remove 1 Reply Jock Lenzi Jock Lenzi So sad. I saw him in concert in 1974 and he was full of life. I saw him again 30 years later and he was a shell of his previous self. When I got up fairly close to him I could see that his eyes were blank and empty, which was very upsetting. He's just another casualty of a godless, sinful, lifestyle.
