We were playing in Miami and we walked on stage and sitting right down in the front
of the row is Tom Dowd, our producer, Eric Clapton, and all the dominoes.
So, for the first time in my life, I think I saw Dwayne Allman nervous.
He's got his god down in front of him and he's playing for him.
We finished the show, they came backstage and were blown away by the band.
And we all wound up packing it up and going to Criteria Studios where they were in the
process of doing Layla and Assorted Love Songs.
_ And Eric and Dwayne hit it off like gangbusters and Dwayne wound up going in and becoming
a part of that record.
And you can make the case that if Dwayne hadn't done that, you'd have never heard of that record. _ _
_ _ We were on tour and the great Rolling Stone magazine sent out one of their editors to
spend two weeks with us and _ we didn't particularly get along with them.
But it all built up to this climax when Miss Annie Leibovitz came out to take pictures
of the band and she had heard about these mushroom tattoos that we all have on our legs
and wanted us all to pull our pants legs up and line up the mushrooms so she could take a picture.
We started to and Dickie threw his pants down and said, now this is stupid.
And the guy says, no stupider than getting a tattoo in the first place.
Dwayne was standing right next to him, reached over and grabbed him, pulled him up to him
and said, one more crack like that out of you, I'm going to knock your block off.
And you can go back and find that Rolling Stone magazine and read the most ridiculous
article ever written about a rock and roll band.
_ _ We were doing the cover for Fillmore East.
Everyone's supposed to believe that that's the wall next to Fillmore East.
That's actually on Broadway, just off of Broadway, across from the studio in Macon, Georgia.
And anyway, we had this photographer that was a real jerk.
He's yelling at us all day long and _ we're not real good at being yelled at.
So most of the day we're all sitting here like this, just scowling at the guy.
And at one point, this guy walks up, the guy had set up inside of our truck and this guy
walked up beside the truck and Dwayne jumped up and ran over to him.
[F#] And the photographer starts screaming and hollering and Dwayne came back and sat down
and we all busted out laughing.
And that is the _ picture.
That's the picture from the whole day with everybody laughing.
And if you look, Dwayne's got his hands like this.
What he had done is ran over and picked up a little eight ball cocaine from his dealer
and he's got it in his hand right here.
So if you want to know something about the Fillmore East album, that's it. _ _ _ _ _ _
A short time before Dwayne Alvin left Muscle Shoals to go to Jacksonville and put together
the Alvin Brothers, he was finishing up an album with Wilson Pickett and they'd gotten
down to where they needed like one or two more songs to complete the album.
And Dwayne came up with the idea and told Wilson, hey, why don't we record Hey Jude?
And I won't tell you what Wilson said, but it was an anti-Semitic remark.
And Dwayne said, no, I hate you by the Beatles.
And so he played the song for him and Wilson just went nuts.
He loved the [E] song and it wound [F#m] up being [B] one of the biggest hits he ever had in his whole career.
[F#] And _ Dwayne played that screaming guitar that you hear on the end of [E] Hey Jude.
