Yup, do yerself a favor 
Actually I'm listening to it right now - |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Your both Mistaken...did you read the post I put up.
It ain't about "talking to the little man in the boat" or Duane hitting a Peach Truck.
" Alas, the real answer is not quite so literary. The title is an allusion to a statement Duane Allman once made during a magazine interview:
The myth was that the band used the title because Duane had crashed into a peach truck when he died; in truth, it came from one of Duane's throwaway lines in an interview. "How are you helping the revolution?" Ellen Mandel of Good Times Magazine had asked him. "I'm hitting a lick for peace," Duane responded. "And every time I'm in Georgia, I eat a peach for peace."
This explanation is supported by the album's back cover, which features a drawing of a railroad flatcar carrying an enormous watermelon, with the words "EAT A PEACH FOR PEACE" appearing along the top curve of the melon."

I thought it was a Macon city bus--or was that Berry Oakley?
There's a remixed "Live at the Fillmore East" album out, a double CD with all of the live cuts from "Eat a Peach" on it, supposedly all in the order they were actually played. Segues right into Mountain Jam at the end of Whipping Post on disc 2. Some throwaway studio piece is included at the end. |

Thanks for posting the link, TDF. Interesting read. I couldn't believe that Oakley was actually up and walking around declining treatment after hitting the bus. If it happened today, he may have been saved. |
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
