Such a great tribute from a great songwriter and musician I agree wholeheartedly with his idea of burning all the confederate flags and what they represent

Deep thanks for showcasing this track. Allman’s plaintive voice is augmented by a thoughtful piano and the cymbals near the end add a haunting accentuation. Even the studio chatter is as awesome as this ballad!

Always appreciated Gregg's tribute to MLK. Listened to it earlier this morning. Thanks for reminding all that today is a day to celebrate MLK's life. Sadly, we still have a long way to go before his dream is realized.

All I can say Alan is, thank you for keeping it alive. It has been said that a man is not dead while his name is still spoken.

Thank you, Alan, for keeping this story and this song alive. Gregg was a kind and humble, enlightened Southern gentleman.

Maybe he should've looked into he really was.
