Song of the Month:  “Whipping Post” by Dickey Betts, Allman Brothers Band

Editor’s Comment:   Rest In Peace, Dickie Betts.  Betts’ most famous writing was “Ramblin Man” and while popular, is not one of my favorites.  This, another Betts song features Betts and Duane Allman alternating on lead and rhythm guitar in one of the greatest electric blues ballads ever.
