At the head of my only one time one time only! list.

He opened for Sharon Jones/The Dap Kings and it was one of the most perfect hours of music I've ever witnessed.

 

one of the greats. Wishing health and long life to Allen.

What a guy! So great - songwriter, musician, he does it all and does it all the way! Thanks for posting this.

He died in 2015, but a legend for sure

I was lucky enough to meet him and see him play and collaborate with David Bromberg.

 

Allen was a total sweetheart.

We were fortunate to see him play at the Dear Jerry show in 2015 before he passed. heart

 

Does he even post here any more
