Loss and triumph
Duane Allman died not long after the Fillmore East album was certified gold, killed in a motorcycle accident on October 29, 1971 in Macon, Georgia (at the corner of Hillcrest and Bartlett) when he lost control avoiding collision with a flatbed truck used to carry heavy pipe. The loss of their leader was hard for the group to bear, but they quickly decided to carry on. The album continued to gain FM radio airplay, with stations even playing 13-minute and 23-minute selections.

Jimmy fight over bootlegs
Page's fight over bootlegs
27/07/2007
GUITAR legend Jimmy Page was in court yesterday giving evidence against a trader allegedly caught with Led Zeppelin bootlegs.
Page, 63, said a huge personal collection of un-released band performances were stolen from his home in the early 80s.
He told Glasgow sheriff court that over the years he had found Led Zeppelin bootlegs at stores from New York to Japan.
Trader Robert Langley was allegedly caught with counterfeit CDs and DVDs at a record fair in the city.
They included a £220 boxset of a Japan tour and a £40 warm-up set in Denmark. Page said: "Some of these recordings it is just a whirring and you cannot hear the music."
Langley, 57, of Bucks, denies breaching copyright. The trial continues.

Ace to Zep of guitar hits
Two numbers by legendary rockers Led Zeppelin top a poll of the 20 greatest guitar tracks of all time.
The chart was chosen by famous axemen - including guitarist Jimmy Page from Led Zep.
Other judges included Ronnie Wood of The Rolling Stones, the Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl and Andy Summers from The Police.
Q editor Paul Rees said: "This 20 greatest list is, we feel, the definitive one, since it's not been determined by a bunch of musically-challenged hacks, but by more than able guitarists, people of the standing of Jimmy Page and Ronnie Wood .
"If they don't know what they're talking about, no one does."
The top 10 is:
1 Black Dog - Led Zeppelin
2 Dazed and Confused - Led Zep
3 Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix
4 A Woman in Winter - The Skids
5 Guitar Shuffle - Big Bill Broonzy
6 And Your Bird Can Sing - The Beatles
7 The End - The Beatles
8 Only In Dreams - Weezer
