I'm pretty sure it's "It's Not My Cross To Bear" by the Allman Brothers. Starts at about the 2:30 mark here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkBdtjq_26s

I don't think so. Someone had that Alman Brothers song on setlist.fm for the Albany show at http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/joe-bonam … a8a9a.html, though it was changed to "one less cross to bear" in the last edit.

I have a bad recording of the concert on my phone, and the lyrics are clearly "I got one less cross to bear", and a few other lines are clear enough to not match that song at all.

Thanks to Sandy for posting the setlist...

I also am wondering about "One Less Cross to Bear" only thing even close is an old Cole Porter song...but even that doesn't have the exact lyric "I got one less cross to bear"

I too am hoping its the Almman Bros. song "It's Not my Cross to Bear" and if Beth Hart doesn't sing it at RCMH...would be cool to see Gregg Allman do it...although his voice is kinda shot!!

Joe told us "One Less Cross To Bear" is a brand new song that he just wrote when he was in Nashville the other week.

Maybe it's psychological word association, but I listened a few times and to me it definitely has an Allman Brothers groove.  ABB is my favorite band of all time, so yeah, I'm digging this tune.
