This week on the Tapers section, we conclude our three week journey through the original southern Jam band, the Allman Brothers Band.  This episode is more core Allmans, unfortunately not as much local content as I usually prefer.  But a great show nonetheless, featuring heavy representation of Duane Allman with the Grateful dead, and Derek and the Dominos.  Warren Haynes is well represented as well, in solo performance as well as with the Brothers.  Finally, our friends Greensky Bluegrass and the Dead 27s performing right here in Charleston.  Next week we discover South Carolina's own, reverend Gary Davis and his tapestry of musical influence…
