I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:18, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

I'll copyedit as I go through; please revert if I make any mistakes. Generally this is in excellent shape. Once these points are fixed I will promote to GA. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 03:08, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
 * A couple of points that are not issues for GA but you may wish to fix:
 * is a dead link
 * There are some page ranges given that should be "pp." instead of "p."
 * which formed the basis of his acclaimed memoir My Cross to Bear: suggest cutting "acclaimed".
 * The band continued on, with Brothers and Sisters (1973) representing their largest sales: suggest "The band continued, with Brothers and Sisters (1973) their most successful album."
 * discovering artists such as Muddy Waters, which later became central to his musical evolution: should this be "who later became"?
 * Allman always maintained that Herring had told him to take the deal and he would take the fall for it: I don't follow this; what deal?
 * the first verse introduced a story, expounded upon it in the second, and the third may serve as an epilogue: needs a bit of tweaking: as it stands "the first verse" is the subject of "expounded".
 * Footnote 45 is to Freeman 1996, but there's nothing matching that in the sources list.
 * hey mike, thanks for the great review and all your edits. i addressed all your points, and re-wrote the passage regarding scooter + "take the deal" or whatever -- i don't even remember what i was trying to say there, and i re-read the book i cited and couldn't decipher it either. thanks again!
