This is a cover by Gregg Allman of the Otis Redding song "Can't Turn You Loose" posted yesterday. Here, he is playing in Birmingham, Alabama, in 2007, for a benefit concert for Scott Boyer, the rhythm guitarist in his band during the '70s. Boyer and Allman have performed together since that time, and this benefit must have been for a time when Boyer was going through health issues. Not sure of those details, but he seems to have recovered since then, as he and his songwriting partner (Tommy Talton), have been active over the last few years, including, sitting in with the Allman Brothers Band for some gigs in New York City, not the least of which, was a show on St. Patrick's Day in 2009 where Boyer and Talton joined the ABB onstage.
