About this ebook
Revised and expanded, with a new afterword by the author, this is the definitive biography of Duane Allman, one of the most revered guitarists of his generation. Skydog reveals the complete story of the legendary guitarist: his childhood and musical awakening; his struggling first bands; his hard-won mastery of the slide guitar; his emergence as a successful session musician; his creation of the Allman Brothers Band; his tragic death at age 24; and his thriving musical legacy.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really thought that this book was incredibly well-written. I mean it was very compelling a real page-turner. I practically read this whole book nonstop without being able to put it down. Great job by Randy Poe! Thanks Randy for such a great book! This one is my favorite book primarily about Duane. I highly recommend getting this book if you do not have it already!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I was surprised at how interested I was in this! Everytime I picked it up, I had a hard time putting it down. I love memoirs, and this one is right at the top of my list. I think I will read Midnight Riders next to learn a little about the rest of the Allman Brothers.
