Yeah man , good one add to the list. Thats one of my FAVs to play out.Been playin it for 30 yrs,know it like the back of my hand, BUT, I always manage to "throw"in somethin new.
How bout "Home Sick"? Thats another kick ass tune thats fun to play.Has alotta the same type up kicks (live version).We used to run em back to back.

I think you mean "Dreams I'll Never See". Do yourself a favor and check out the original version of the song on the first Allman Brothers album, which was simply titled "Dreams". Why MH felt compelled to rename it I'll never understand.

Yeah , pretty much the same..Go back 30 yrs to a band called ALS (Alanta Rhythm Section).The studio version is pretty bland.I was playin it when it was top 40.

I love Dreams, its a great song especially Molly Hatchets version. Weve done it from time to time and most audiences are familiar with it.
Speaking of Molly Hatchett, Ive fallen in love with the song Flirtin With Disaster all over again. I had forgotten this song and sat in with some guys a couple of monthes ago. It has some awesome lead licks along with some really cool rythym guitar. Great song in my opinion.

I agree with whoever it was, definitely check out the Allman Brothers original version of Dreams, I always liked it a lot better than the Molly Hatchett copy. I though they trashed it myself, it was originally a gorgeous song, and some of Duanne's best slide work. One of my all time favorite songs.
If you're into Molly Hatchett, also check out Gator Country and Whiskey Man, both very good songs.
