Hey discos, need a little more Disgraceland in your life, just to touch to get you through. Yeah me too. This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome to Disgraceland, the after Party. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode, a little thing we like to call the after Party. This is the show after the show, the party after the party, the bridge to gave from one full episode of Disgraceland to the other. The backyard, to dig into the dirt, our mission to uncover the truth and to confront the myth, to reclaim the story. On this bonus episode, we reveal the murder from Allman Brothers band history that didn't make it into this week's full episode. Plus your take on the greatest Southern bands of all time, a
conversation on the greatest brother bands of all time, in a preview of next week's new episode on Alice Bag, front woman for LA Punk band The Bags Were Bags, excuse me, and protector of an LA punk scene that was being threatened by serial killers. Plus we get into your emails, comments, dms, and as always a whole lot of Rosie. This is the podcast for the musically obsessed, the outsiders, the Independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. Disgraceland is where I tell the stories they didn't want told, the kind you'll end up telling someone else. All right, just goes, let's get into it. Touring in a band will literally drive you crazy. Allman Brothers band attorney John Condon Junior
prove that in a court of law in nineteen seventy. Now, I've toured in bands, and a lot of you have as well, And most of you know people who have toured, and you heard the stories. The road is tough. The road won't just kill you, it will, like the man's said, drive you crazy. Even the most successful artists get driven into a state of isolation on the road. Even the most disciplined are tempted. The healthiest succumb to unhealthy habits.
You know it's out. They're drug sex, bad food, and a lack of suitable toilet options. It's enough to make a rambled the man take up a straight job, I tell you. But back in nineteen seventy, the Allman Brothers band, like many before them and many after, they wanted their slice of the rock and roll pie. And they weren't going to be denied. So they were touring in a shitty little Winnebago across the Midwest, and when they made their way to New York they were well frazzled. The bands that itinerary had them in Chicago one night, Long Island the next, and then high tailing it west and north again to play in Buffalo the next night. When they got there, they went on late. In Buffalo. When they did go on, they did burn the house down.
Not literally, the literal violence would come later that evening when the band attempted to get paid by the promoter. The promoter, a guy by the name of Angelo Aliota, told Alman Brothers bassist Barry Oakley that the thousand dollars guarantee that the band is supposed to get paid that night was not going to happen, he said. The promoter said that the band went on late, so he was only going to pay them five hundred bucks. Now, Oakley, the bass player, relayed this message to the Alman Brothers road manager, a dude by the name of Twiggs Lyndon Junior.
You know the scrawny little road manager from almost famous, the dude with the long hair, leather vest and cowboy hat. Put some christ on, a cross muscle tone on that dude, give him a Sam Elliott mustache and spram with an air of I don't give a fuck, and you'll have a picture of Twiggs. Lindon Junior, the Almonds road manager.
Twiggs was, in a word, badass, a nineteen seventies road managing badass. Twiggs had come up looking after other Georgia artists like Otis Redding and Little Richard, and they'll make them crazier than Little Richard on or off the road. Okay, Now, maybe all those one nighters that the Almonds were up to, maybe they'd caught up to Twigs on that very night.
Or maybe he was just bloodthirsty, maybe he just needed to blow off some steam. When the bass player Oakley, told Twiggs that the promoter Aliota was stiffing them on half their pay, Twigs confronted Aliota, and Aliota told Twigs to go fuck himself. Twiggs pulled out the ten inch fishing knife that he kept sheathed on his hip, and Aliota rushed at him. The two then fell grappling to the floor. They were on the club, rolling around, and only one of them got up. Almand Brothers band Twiggs Lyndon Junior. He's the one who got up Angelo Aliota, the promoter. He remained bleeding on the floor. He was stabbed by Twigs. Twigs sat on a barstool. Fuck him, was what he was reported to have said, and he
watched Aliota then bleed out. He then said, let them give me the electric chair. I needed to make my point. I'm paraphrasing, but that's what's reported he had said. Within an hour, the promoter was dead. Twigs didn't resist arrest all my brothers. Attorney John Condon Jr. Gambled. When this went to court, the attorney for Twiggs opted for a bench trial, meaning that there would be no jury, that the judge alone would decide his client's fate. I don't even know this is possible, but it turns out it is, or it was so the attorney then condon. This guy Condon.
He pleaded temporary insanity for Twiggs Lyndon Jr. He said that the road manager was made crazy by the road and that's why he killed that dude. Look at this group of long hair, drug addicted freaks. My client has to look after your honor. You'd go crazy too, Like literally, this is this is the argument he didn't say. This is exactly what he did argue a version of this.
He even brought in Almonds bassist. I have a hard time saying Almonds Almonds bassist, very Oakly, the guy we were talking about earlier. He brought him up on the stand to discuss his dope habit. Okay. The lawyer also produced a list of age of consent for minors in each state. It's nineteen seventy year, honor. The age of consent in some states is only fourteen years old. How am I going to keep these guys sane? Are you're fucking kidding me? This happened like literally arguing that the age of consent is less than eighteen in some of these states that they're traveling in. So the thirty seven year old road manager is driven crazy. I mean that that's crazy enough. But the crazier thing here, guys, is
it worked. Okay. The judge ruled that Almond Brothers road manager John Condon Junior was temporarily insane when he killed Angelo Aliota Twiggs. Lyndon Junior was not guilty by reason of temporary insanity, thus proving that touring in a rock and roll band can literally make you crazy. Twigs did six months in a psych ward as his punishment, and then he got out and he once again hit the road with the Almond Brothers. He died in nineteen seventy nine in a skydiving accident when his shoot failed to open.
Maybe Twigs was crazy after all, because only crazy motherfucker's skydive. This story was not in this week's episode on the Almond Brothers band, but I wanted to share it with you guys, because it's, well, you guessed it crazy, all right? Speaking of crazy, why are bands with brothers in them the craziest Oasis? Black Crows, Almond Brothers, Zeth and I are diving into the antics and craziness from brother bands and the great music that these brother bands have made throughout music history. Coming up in the exclusive section of this podcast, got to talk about my ever bros guitar all right.

Almond Brother's band episode that I've been talking about. The story deals with more than just Dwayne Almon's incredible guitar playing also gets into the Dixie gangs the band crossed and had to survive, but it also delves into the efforts that the band made in getting a peanut farmer elected president. Here's what I mean. In nineteen seventy five, an Almond Brothers band concert helped elect the next president of the United States. Greg Almon couldn't believe that this dude in jeans and T shirt, sipping scotch and listening to blues records was actually the governor of his state.
And Greg Almon almost spit out his drink when that man, Jimmy Carter, told him that he was running for president. Now, Greg knew that the idea that was crazy, but he told Carter he'd do anything he could to help his campaign. By late nineteen seventy five, Jimmy Carter's campaign was in trouble. Carter was runrunning out of money ahead of the must win Iowa primary. At that same time, the Almond Brothers were falling apart after the death of two of its members and news of the band's hard drug fueled living in the press. But Jimmy Carter did not turn his back on the Almond Brothers. He turned to the Almand Brothers.
He told people that if they didn't think an Almand Brothers fans should be president, then they should vote for somebody else. The Almonds then agreed to host a benefit concert for the Carter campaign ahead of the Iowa primary. The concert turned Almonds fans young voters into Jimmy Carter fans, and created a cash windfall for the campaign. Carter was then able to flood the airwaves with ads and squeak into a first place finish in Iowa, a primary win that sparked Jimmy Carter's successful run for president, America's first rock and roll president. All Right, I love that story, regardless of your politics. Who gives a shit rock and roll helping a dude get elected to president in the nineteen seventies. It's totally different story.
Now.
We've obviously come a long way in society and cultural norms, but back then that was a big fucking deal. And I like how, you know, say we look again, I don't care what anybody's politics are. I like how Carter was like, you know what, I like all Myond Brothers fans. You got to understand how fucking conservative it was still back in the nineteen seventies and for you know, the guy running for president to put his balls on the line about his musical taste. I think that's fucking awesome when anybody does that. I love that, all right. So let's see Allman Brothers in this week's full episode. Coming up right after this bonus episode, our rewind episode on r Kelly, and then next week our new episode on
Alice Bag from the Bags. Shit, man, I'm just realizing it's not the bags. It's bags. I've been calling her. I've been calling it the bags for way too long. Forgive me, Alice. When you're listening to the Alice Bag episode, be thinking about underground music scenes. Okay, there have been some incredible underground music scenes throughout the history of rock and roll. This is almost too broad of a question, but the LA punk scene in the eighties one of the most influential music scenes of all time, and there have been some incredible ones, and the La one at that time was was very underground. Okay, we want to know about some of the bands that were essential to a scene. Okay, now, this might be some scene only
you're familiar with a band. You you know, it's like you think of the Berkeley you know, Berkeley, California. If you think of that scene, right, Green Day and Rancid came out of that scene, they wouldn't have come out of that scene without a band that not many people know about called Operation Ivy. All right, that's what I mean by essential. Okay, the DC scene, the Washington, d C.
Hardcore scene. Okay, everyone knows Minor Threat, everybody knows Fugazi, everybody, you know what I mean. But what about what about rights of spring? Okay, that's what I'm talking about. The essential bands that we may have overl looked, looked from from some of the most influential underground scenes. Doesn't have to be punk. Rock can be, blues, can be jazz.
I was reading about this this jazz flutis the other day that I'd never heard of before. It is the first flute solo in modern music that wasn't classical. That type of thing. Hit me up six one seven nine oh six six six three eight. Essential bands from underground music. Let us know who you got, who you're listening to.
Leave me a voicemail six one seven nine oh six six six three eight, Send me a text six one seven nine oh six six six three eight. Email me Disgrace Sampod at gmail dot com. Hit us up on the socials at Disgrace Lampod, and you might hear your answer on next week's after party. I said, I got to take a quick break. Be back right after this with your voicemails, text, dms and more. All right, guys, you want to be a rock and roll star, then listen.
Now I'll hear what you say, not what I say. What you say, I'm in the phone booth. I'm not going to repeat it. You know how it goes. You know where it is. It's across the hall. The numbers six one seven nine oh six six six three eight. Last week's question of the week relative to our Disgrace Slad episode on The Alman Brothers was who is your favorite Southern rock band? Hey, let's go to Patty in the nine to seven.
Oh, Jake, it's Patty in the nine seven oh residing in the three h three, aspiring the four one five. I wanted to bring up a specific Southern rock band, the Aquarium Rescue Units with some pretty heavy players for sure. I mean, you've got Jeff's Sipe apartment to two fifty eight, one of the greatest, if not the greatest drummer name of all time. Do you have, of course, Jimmy Herring later of Weds Britannic. I hope he's getting better. And we have o'tell the man from Egypt to Otil Burbridge, probably the greatest story of ever meeting a musician in my life. I'll save that for another day. And of course the ultimate Colonel Bruce Hampkin. Thanks all the disc goes up there for supporting this guy, and thank you
Jake for giving us some amazing programming over the years. Keep going, keep crushing it.
And roll it all right, Patty, listen. I want to hear that story, man, I want to. I want you to call back, and I want you to tell me that story. I also would like I would. I would prefer if you can, if you can. I know you're busy, I get it, but you know you've mentioned these these bands. I don't know who the fuck you're talking about here, man, and that's because I have a gaping hole in my understanding of music. I don't know that I've even ever heard a widespread panic song. When I hear when somebody mentions widespread panic, you know what I think of I think of Eastbound and Down. I think it's the pilot episode when Kenny goes back home and he's doing blow with is buddy Clem in the in the back of
the bar, and uh, I think there's snorting lines off of Burned Widespread Panic CD and Kenny's like he doesn't know the band, and Clem's like, I'll get I'll make you a mix, man, I'll just get you the choice snugs. One of the funniest scenes I've ever seen in any television show ever. And I don't think they're dising widespread panic.
I think they're actually, you know, into widespread panic. But I've never heard widespread panic. So for me to fully appreciate the Aquarium Rescue Unit, I gotta I gotta, I gotta know where this all goes too, or come or you know what I mean. So hit me up and just tell you one song, Patty, one song to start with.
Give me a widespread panic song, one of those, and then give me one more, actually two songs the Aquarium Rescue Unit. Just give me a starting point. Okay, all right, appreciate you all. Let's check out John and the eight oh five.
Hi, Jake really like to enjoy the podcast. It's great stuff. And this is John from the eight oh five the Central Coast to California. Anyways, my favorite sound in a rock band. I was never really big and the Almond Brothers or definitely not like a Skinner, although it's in my age group. But I really liked the popish side, which is thirty eight Special and currently the newest one.
I go crazy with Yesty Trucks. That's so good stuff. Seeing them a couple of times live, They're great and I still want to know what year is the mellotron you're playing? All right, Thanks Jake, keep it up, great stuff.
John, what's up, my man? I gotta say our tastes are pretty aligned on this. I like the poppier stuff too. I did not grow up an Almond Brothers fan or even you know. I had a brief Linyard Skinner moment when I was really young and getting into guitar, but it was fleeting, and whenever I hear thirty eight Special, man, I am fucking reaching for that volume. Knob. I've had the pleasure of seeing Tedesky Trucks live and having my face melted and good stuff. Appreciate the call, John, appreciate it.
Nine oh seven rights in on this subject, Hey, Jake. The southern rock band that popped into my mind first was thirty eight special. Well there you go, another thirty eight special. My friends and I spent many a night at the roller skating rink listening to their tunes as we circled the floor, and as I transitioned into early adulthood, my allegiance transferred to the Black Crows, especially Shake Your Money Maker, and for a modern take on the sound, you might want to check out BlackBerry Smoke. A colleague at work has their tunes playing in his classroom before and after school, as well as any time students are not in his room. Lisa from the nine oh seven Lisa, I think we got a rock and roll high school teacher. Lisa?
Is that what you are? I like it? Dig it eight one six rights in, Hey, Black Crows Southern rock, and they're my favorite and it's not even close. I love those guys. The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion is an all time great album. It really is. It's really great. Speaking of Southern bands, Frank Beard from Ziezi Top died yesterday.
I got news of that. Rest in peace, mister Beard, Pma to your family. You know, Zzy Top obviously an incredible band. People are gonna say a lot of great things about the band and about Frank Beard. You know, it's funny. They're from Texas, obviously, and I don't think of Texas bands as Southern bands. I think of them as Texas bands. Like Texas has its own thing, and that is in part because of Frank Beard and Zazy Top.
They've defined their own complete niche inside of a niche I don't even know. Niche is the wrong word for anything from Texas, because Texas is just big and figuratively am literally, There's just something about Texas that makes it fucking Texas and rest in peace. Frank Beard, one of the great drummers from one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all times, Easy Top seven to to oh Rima, writes in Rima from Joshua Tree Southern rock bands, I'm gonna stretch to the classic definition with a few of these, but here's my short list. Rema Arizona is not the South, It's the Southwest. She does mention flat duo jets. I'll accept that. Steve Earl ah Tennessee, So yeah, Tony Joe White, Yeah, definitely Southern. We send to Williams yep, yeah,
the Meters okay, all right, The Oblivions I don't know enough about, nor do I know enough about the Grifters. Uhrima, right back. Let me know about the Grifters and the Oblivions. Thank you appreciate the text six one seven nine oh six six six three eight. Guys, hit me up voicemail and text for next week's after party, right, hit me up.
Let me know what are the seminal bands from the different underground scenes throughout music history that we need to know about. Okay, someone just called reference in here. Text two five zero doesn't leave her name from Vancouver, refers to herself as a Vancouver right, and says she wants to hear us dive in on the slits. This is kind of what I'm talking about. The Slits. Give us the seminal bands from underground scenes that we should know about.
All right, let's get that conversation going. Six months seven nine o six six sixty three eight voicemail and text. All right, So back to the subject of the Almand Brothers, one of the most famous guitar solos in rock history. Exists because a black soul singer and a white hippie guitar player were not allowed to eat lunch together. In nineteen sixty eight, Dwayne Allman was recording as a session guitarist at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, with the legendary R and B artist Wilson Pickett, But when lunchtime came, Alman and Pickett were told to hang back at the studio because the diner that the rest of the band was heading to was still segregated. Now not only were blacks not allowed, but long haired hippie guitar players were
frowned upon as well. Allman in Pickett used their time alone in the studio when they weren't at lunch to record the beatles Hey Jude. Dwayne Almond nailed the tune in one take, and Eric Clapton heard Dwayne Almonds playing on Wilson pickets Hey Jude. Eric Clapton enlisted Dwayne Almond to join his new band, Derek and the Dominoes. The band's one and only album features the legendary track Layla, which features Dwayne Almon in one of the greatest and most recognizable guitar solos of all time, A solo that wouldn't have happened had Dwayne Almond and Wilson Pickett not been forced to miss out on lunch that afternoon. Thought you guys to dig that little piece of music history.
We'll be right back after this. All right, welcome back. As we've been talking about Southern rock brother bands, Dwayne Almon, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Carter. I guess heard Jimmy carter solo album. I haven't. I heard. It's good though. I heard that was his wife's name, not Linda Carter. Fuck was his wife's name. I can't was the sex thing with her?
There was something. I don't know what it was. It's a big deal. Wouldn't be a big deal now, but it was a big deal then. Anyhow, we're talking about a lot disgrace. Lampod at gmail dot com. You want to email us Rosalind Carter. She said something about sex and people lost their minds. I can't remember what it was.

for the email, Sean, appreciate you. This next email comes from Laura. Laura writes in Hey, I've written him before asking to do an episode on Tory Amos, but My dad was the grandson of Ty Cobb and went to high school with Greg Almon and Daytona Beach, and I heard some stories. My dad, Charlie passed away from cancer a few years ago multiple melanoma agent Orange Vietnam. Never talked about it. He loved, loved, loved, loved, loved the Almond brothers and generally any and all Motown. I don't think I can listen to this episode yet because there's a shit ton of history here that my family. I'm adopted.
No really, Catholic School Services nineteen eighty three isn't willing to face. But I love you and your work, and I'll listen eventually. This isn't my first time writing slash calling in. Please do an episode on Tori Amos and what she's done with Rain. Thank you, Laura Cobb. Laura Cobb, thanks for emailing us. I'm gonna go through this first of all. Thy Cob. Wow, that's just incredible. I recently watched three quarters of the Tay Coob movie and it was one of those things where I found the movie to be entertaining. I liked it super hollywoodized biopic. I think there's lots of Ty Cobb's story that I don't know.
It just struck me as like, well, this is interesting. I see where they're getting this. I think this is probably worse than they're saying slash more revelatory, or we're not getting the whole picture. Maybe we're getting a lazy take on this. I don't know. I was compelled to dig further, but I ran out of time and energy.
Fascinated by Ty Cobb obviously a very complicated past there, but one of the greatest ball players of all time and wild that I guess you're his great granddaughter. That makes sense, Yeah, do I get that right? Sorry to hear about your father passing away, Laura, that is sad and Yike's agent Orange Tory Amols and Rain. We're going to get to it. I don't know how. I don't know when, but I love the angle and I appreciate I appreciate it, appreciate you you suggesting it, and it's something we will do at some point. I just don't have it quite nailed down yet. Thank you for the email, Laura.
