The Road Goes on Forever utilizes history, personal interviews, and
many collected documents to aid in the telling of the story of the
humble beginnings and career of the original Southern rock band on
this, the 50th anniversary of their formation. Author Michael
Buffalo Smith personally spoke with former Allman Brothers members
including Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Butch Trucks, Warren Haynes,
and Allen Woody, as well as producers, engineers, roadies, and fans
to create a tribute to Macon, Georgia's greatest rock and roll
export. Smith takes us inside the Big House on Vineville Avenue in
Macon where the band lived during their peak years and into
Capricorn Studios where they recorded all of their original albums.
The albums are each given the spotlight as well, including Gregg
and Dickey's solo projects, and the book explores the exhaustive
list of recording credits accumulated by Duane Allman during his
far too short career. There is a complete review of the
unprecedented 40th anniversary Beacon Theatre residency in 2009
that found the band joined onstage by a veritable Who's Who of
contemporary music greats. More than just a history of the greatest
Southern band of all time, The Road Goes on Forever is a reference
manual for fans of the band--a book filled with ramblin' men, blue
skies, Georgia peaches, and great music. Chuck Leavell, former band
member and current Rolling Stones band leader, provides the
foreword.
