The Allman Brothers Band

The Allman Brothers Band was one of the most popular Southern rock bands of all time, and one of the pioneers of instrumental bands. They were greatly successful, although it was not proper to induct them before Lynyrd Skynyrd. Member Gregg Allman went on to have a successful solo career. The group was inducted their first year of eligibility while Skynyrd had to wait forever, a real shame. The Allman Brothers Band was inducted by country legend Willie Nelson. Member Duane Allman was also a member of Derek and the Dominos.
