Dicky's Guitar playing in conjunction with that of Duane Allman provided a unique One-Two punch and gave the band it's high octane sound and helped to define the signature Southern Rock music sound. Betts played with the band from 1969 through 2000

Dicky, a Rock and Roll Hall of fame member wrote such hits as Jessica and Rambling man, Blue Sky,and In Memory of Elizabeth Reed as well as collaborating on so many more.

Rest in Peace Dicky and thanks for stopping by and giving us some great music.
