Skynyrd wrote simple songs for teenagers

Allman Brothers wrote complex, beautiful timeless jams with insane musicianship and vocals

same. my cousin took me to an Allman Bros show when i was like 18. he's a year older.

i'd never listened to them before and was blown away.

He took me to some other insane shows that I didn't really appreciate at the time.

Gov't Mule with special guest John Scofield.

Herbie Hancock with Wayne Shorter

allman brothers-style music is considered meandering and boring nowadays. skynyard had much more 'punch' to their songs. stronger hooks, more intensity, just a lot MORE in general. nobody actually wants to hear an allman brother aimlessly 'noodle' for 17 minutes on some live album.

They didnt really meander and do experimental jam shit. It was more structured and groove driven giving the guitar and piano opportunities to improvise.

Very different than "let's a pick a key and see what happens for 20 min."

allman brothers is coma-inducingly bland meandering aural wallpaper. it all washes over you in a sea of sameness. you never even know which song you're listening to.

lol @ LS writing 'simple songs'. a 'simple song' is like Louie Louie. no garage bands were knocking out Lynyrd Skynyrd. LS struck the balance that all good bands do: between musicianship and well-crafted songs.

AB is just another jam-band vamping a mediocre riff for 40 minutes and claiming some kind of long-distance runner's superiority over better more disciplined bands.

Midnight Rider is really their only good song. the other songs you named are frankly not that great, kind if insipid compared to LS.

ABB didn't do Dead/Phish style "meandering" jams.

I think you may have never actually listened to ABB based on your description of their music.
