5.0 out of 5 stars not vol.1,but still great, February 1, 2006

I agree the first volume had some stronger stuff,(try matching "Loan me a Dime"anywhere),but it is a bit overkill on lots of stuff I already had.If you're a fan,you already own the Allman Bros.tracks and "Layla"etc.This volume has more rarities and unreleased songs.Worth owning for Johnny Jenkins"Walk On Guilded Splinters"and Herbie Manns"Push Push".More guitar brilliance from the late,great Skydog.Cant beat it!

5.0 out of 5 stars How is this possible?, November 5, 2005

This review is from: Anthology 2 (Audio CD)

How is it possible that a man who was only around for a few years and only made music professionaly for fewer years could have two carear spanning anthologies? This is something I would expect to be made for Jimmy Page but the fact that two, two disc anthologies are made for this man not only astounds me but makes me happy. Duane was original and still to this day is one of the greatest guitar players ever, easily the best as far as slide goes.

With both anthologies in my collection its easy to see, this the second far better. This goes deeper into the mans music showing his skills not only as a songwriter ('Happily Married Man') and as a musician. As soon as the very first Allman Brothers record was released Duane became themost wanted studio musician at the time. This is what we mostly see here, with great Allman Brothers songs as well as rare studio cuts and work with other artist.

Songs like 'Matchbox' 'Dimples' and 'Waiting For The Train' show why Duane is such a legend. other incomplete tracks like the opener 'Happily Married Man' evoke thoughts of wonder. Every time I listen to something with Duane on it I cant help but think, what could have been? At least we have the music forever.
