Don’t Take It Away

The Allman Brothers Band performing 'One Way Out' live at Germany in 1991.

The Allmans recorded this at the Fillmore East in March 1971. It's a live cut that follows three studio tracks on Eat A Peach.

The song is about a guy who is having an illicit affair with a woman whose husband has apparently come home. He's starting to wonder if she's worth the hassle, and one thing is for sure: he's not going out the front door, since he doesn't want to meet up with her man.

This song is actually a cover of a blues song by Sonny Boy Williamson. It is heavily reworked in the Allman's style.

Sturgill Simpson came out at @BourbonNBeyond and never took his foot off the gas.

This was the opening song. An hour and a half in my wife says “I just want to hear him speak.”

He then did say something like “how ya doing Kentucky?” Or something like that.

Then ripped for another hour.

I’ll share more later but I gotta get some sleep for day 4.

The Arcane Texas Fact of the Day:

173 years ago today, back in 1850, the state of Texas suddenly got a lot smaller when it agreed to give up its claim to hundreds of millions of acres of land in New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming in what's called the Great Compromise of 1850. What happened was this:

Texas had claimed the areas in what's now New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming since gaining independence from Mexico in 1836 ---- claims that were only strengthened by the terms of the settlement of the 1846 U.S.-Mexican War. At the same time, Texas was having a hard time paying off the millions of dollars it still owed the United States under the terms of its annexation to the United States in 1846. Meanwhile, folks in Taos and Santa Fe were saying "Hey, we don't want to be part of Texas. We want our own place." Various land-for-debt-relief proposals were made, but none gained traction.

Finally, Senator James A. Pierce of Maryland introduced a bill that offered Texas $10 million in exchange for ceding to the national government all land north and west of a boundary beginning at the 100th meridian where it intersects the parallel of 36°30', then running west along that parallel to the 103d meridian, south to the 32d parallel, and from that point west to the Rio Grande. The bill had the support of the Texas delegation and of moderate leaders in both the North and South. Holders of bonds representing the debt of the Republic of Texas naturally lobbied very hard for the bill because it specified that part of the financial settlement be used to pay those obligations. The measure passed both houses of Congress in the late summer of 1850 and was signed by President Fillmore.

Though there was some opposition in Texas to accepting the proffered settlement, voters at a special election approved it by a margin of three to one. The legislature then approved an act of acceptance, which Governor Bell signed on November 25, 1850.

This is why we can't go skiing in Taos, Texas. 😉😀
