Re: Greg Allman, Low Country Blues

Hi RiverCat,

I watched it and I have to be honest, it was the worst interview I've EVER seen. I like Piers Morgan and usually enjoy his show when I watch, BUT Piers did not know how to adjust his questioning when he hit a brick wall with Gregg not wanting to elaborate on things he thought weren't too significant.  Piers wanted to dwell on Gregg at 64 being engaged to a 24 year old young lady and taking on marriage for the 7th time. Gregg was not an easy person to interview and I would say he is not 100% recovered from his recent medical issues, but Piers didn't do his homework either. Piers should have had more back-up questions ready...like what artists were your musical inspirations, etc. etc. etc.

The show left me wondering how Gregg's book publisher felt...if they were involved in getting Gregg that spot on CNN, they are probably hoping it didn't reach a big audience.

The highlight was a few photos of Gregg and Duane when they were young and a story about Gregg's first guitar.

Re: Greg Allman, Low Country Blues

I agree, Angela. Terrible interview. I wasn't sure if Gregg was just skirting the issues or if he's so burned out he couldn't process the questions and formulate answers. I also enjoyed the pics of him and Duane and wish he would have told a couple more stories about them coming up together.
