Livre écrit par la fille de Duane Allman
A
deeply personal, revealing, and lyrical portrait of Duane Allman,
founder of the legendary Allman Brothers Band, written by his daughter
Galadrielle
Allman went to her first concert as an infant in diapers, held in her
teenage mother’s arms. Playing was her father—Duane Allman, who would
become one of the most influential and sought-after musicians of his
time. Just a few short years into his remarkable career, he was killed
in a motorcycle accident at the age of Twenty-four. His daughter was two
years old.
Galadrielle
was raised in the shadow of his loss and his fame. Her mother sought
solace in a bohemian life. Friends and family found it too painful to
talk about Duane. Galadrielle listened intently to his music, read
articles about him, steeped herself in the mythic stories, and yet the
spotlight rendered him too simple and too perfect to know. She felt a
strange kinship to the fans who longed for him, but she needed to know
more. It took her many years to accept that his life and his legacy were
hers, so she began to ask for stories—from family, fellow musicians,
friends—and they began to flow.
Galadrielle
Allman’s memoir is at once a rapturous, riveting, and intimate account
of one of the greatest guitar prodigies of all time, the story of the
birth of a band that redefined the American musical landscape, and a
tender inquiry of a daughter searching for her father in the memories of
others.
