Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, discos. Need a little more disgrace land in your life?

Our mission to uncover the truth and to confront the myth to reclaim
Starting point is 00:02:36 the story on this bonus episode, we reveal the murder from Alman Brothers Band history that didn't make it into this week's full episode.

Plus, we get into your emails, comments, DMs, and as always, a whole lot of rosy. 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 that didn't want told, the kind
Starting point is 00:03:17 you'll end up telling someone else. All right, discos, let's get you. get into it. Touring in a band will literally drive you crazy. Alman Brothers Band Attorney John Condon Jr. Prove that in a court of law in 1970. 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've heard the stories.
Starting point is 00:03:49 The road is tough. The road won't just kill you. It will, like the man said, drive you crazy. Even the most successful artists get driven into a state of isolation on the road. the most disciplined are tempted. The healthiest succumb to unhealthy habits. You know it's out there. Drug, sex, bad food, and a lack of suitable toilet options. It's enough to make a rambled man take up a straight job, I tell you. But back in 1970, the Almond Brothers band, like many before them and many after, they wanted their slice of the rock and roll pie,
Starting point is 00:04:23 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 band's itinerary had them in Chicago one night, Long Island the next, and then high-tailing at 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,
Starting point is 00:04:54 the promoter, a guy by the name of Angelo Aliota, told Allman Brothers bassist Barry Oakley that the $1,000 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 $500.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Now, Oakley, the bass player, relayed this message to the Alman Brothers road manager, a dude by the name of Twiggs Lyndon Jr. 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-mussel tone on that dude. Give him a Sam Elliott mustache and spray him with an air of,
Starting point is 00:05:36 I don't give a fuck. And you'll have a picture of Twigs Lyndon Jr., the Alman's road manager. Twigs was, in a word, badass. A 1970s road managing badass. Twigs had come up looking after other Georgia artists like Otis Redding and Little Richard. And they don't make them crazier than Little Richard. on or off the road, okay? Now maybe all those one-nighters that the almonds were up to,
Starting point is 00:06:01 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 base player Oakley told Twigs that the promoter, Ailiota, was stiffing them on half their pay. Twigs confronted Aalota, and Aliota told Twigs to go fuck himself. Twigs pulled out the 10-inch fishing knife
Starting point is 00:06:24 that he kept sheathed on his hip. And Aalota 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. Alman Brothers band Twigs Lyndon Jr. He's the one who got up. Angelo Aalota, the promoter, he remained bleeding on the floor. He was stabbed by Twigs.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Twigs sat on a bar stool. Fuck him was what he was reported to have said. And he watched Aalota 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. Alman Brothers Attorney John Condon Jr. gambled when this went to court. The attorney for Twigs opted for a bench trial, meaning that there would be no jury,
Starting point is 00:07:19 that the judge alone would decide his client's fate. I don't even know this is possible, but turns out it is or it was. So the attorney then, Condon, this guy Condon, he pleaded temporary insanity for Twigs 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 along here, drug addicted freaks. My client has to look after your honor. You'd go crazy too. Like literally, this is the argument. He didn't say this exactly, but he did argue a version of this. He even brought in almonds basest.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I have a hard time saying almonds. Alman's basest. Barry Oakley, 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.
Starting point is 00:08:16 It's 1970, Your Honor. The age of consent in some states is only 14 years old. How am I going to keep these guys saying? Are you fucking kidding me? This happened, like literally. Arguing that the age of consent is less than 18 in some of these states that they're traveling in,
Starting point is 00:08:38 so the 37-year-old road manager is driven crazy. I mean, that's crazy enough, but the crazier thing here, guys, is it worked. Okay, the judge ruled that Almond Brothers road manager, John Condon Jr. was temporarily insane when he killed Angelo A. Leota. Twiggs, Lyndon Jr. 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 Alman Brothers.
Starting point is 00:09:15 He died in 1979 in a skydiving accident when his shoot failed to open. Maybe Twigs was crazy after all because only crazy motherfuckers skydive. This story was not in this week's episode on the Allman 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 in 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. going to talk about my Everly Brothers guitar, all right. Go to disgracehandpod.com to sign up to get exclusive content like this plus ad-free listening. In your feed right now, guys, we have our Allman Brothers Band episode that I've been talking about. The story deals with more than just Dwayne Allman's incredible guitar playing.
Starting point is 00:10:10 It 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 1975, an Allman Brothers Band concert helped elect the next president of the United States. Greg Allman 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 Alman almost spit out his drink when that man, Jimmy Carter, told him that he was running for president.
Starting point is 00:10:43 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 1975, Jimmy Carter's campaign was, was in trouble. Carter was running 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 Alman Brothers. He turned to the Almond Brothers. He told people that if they didn't think an Alman Brothers fan should be president, then they should vote for somebody else. The Alman's then agreed to host a benefit concert for the Carter campaign ahead of the Iowa primary.
Starting point is 00:11:23 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 it? shit. Rock and roll helping a dude get elected to president in the 1970s. Totally different story now.
Starting point is 00:11:56 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 Alman Brothers fans. You got to understand how fucking conservative it was still back in the 1970s. 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 that's the 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
Starting point is 00:12:34 the Bags. Shit, man, I'm just realizing it's not The Bags. It's Bags. 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 L.A. punk scene in the 80s, one of the most influential music scenes of all time. And there have been some incredible ones. And the L.A. one at that time 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 know it's like you think of the berkeley uh you know
Starting point is 00:13:22 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 dc hardcore scene okay everyone knows minor threat everybody knows fugazi everybody you know what i mean but but but What about rights of spring? Okay, that's what I'm talking about. The essential bands that we may have overlooked from some of the most influential underground scenes. It doesn't have to be punk rock.
Starting point is 00:13:59 It can be blues, can be jazz. I was reading about this jazz flutist the other day that I'd never heard of before. It's the first flute solo in modern music that wasn't classical. That type of thing. Hit me up, 617-9066638. Essential bands from underground music, let us know who you're got who you listening to.

All right, guys, you want to be a rock and roll star? Then listen now. Hear what you say. Not what I say. What you say. I'm in the phone booth. I'm not can repeat it. You know how it goes. You know where it is. It's across the hall. The number is 617-906-66-66-36-3-8. Last week's question of the week relative to our disgrace land episode on the Almond Brothers was, who is your favorite Southern rock band? Hey, let's go to Patty in the 970. Jake, it's Patty in the 970 residing in the 303, aspiring to 415. I wanted to bring up a specific Southern Rock band
Starting point is 00:15:30 the Aquarium Rescue Unit with some pretty heavy players for sure. I mean, you've got Jeff Seif apartment 258, one of the greatest, if not the greatest drummer name of all time. You have, of course, Jimmy Herring, later at Wadsportan. I hope he's getting better. And we have O'Teill, the man from Egypt to O'Ele-Burbridge, probably the greatest story of ever meeting a musician in my life.
Starting point is 00:15:59 I'll save that for another day. And of course, the ultimate, Colonel Bruce Hampton. Thanks all the discos out there for supporting this guy. And thank you, Jake, for giving us some amazing programming over the years. Keep going. Keep crushing it. Lock and roll it. All right, Patty.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Listen, I want to hear that story, man. I want you to call back and I want you to tell me that story. I also would like, I would prefer if you can, if you can. I know you're busy, I get it. But, you know, you mentioned 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.
Starting point is 00:16:43 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 his buddy Clem in the back of the bar. And I think they're snorting lines off a burned widespread panic CD. And Kenny's like, he doesn't know the band. And Clem's like, I'll make you a mix, man. I'll just get you the choice nugs.
Starting point is 00:17:07 One of the funniest scenes I've ever seen in any television show ever. And I don't think they're dissing widespread panic. I think they're actually into widespread panic. But I've never heard widespread panic. So for me to fully appreciate the Aquarium Rescue Unit, I got to know where this all goes too, or you know what I mean? So hit me up and just give me one song, Patty, one song to start with.
Starting point is 00:17:31 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 right, let's check out John in the 805. Hi, Jake. Really like to enjoy the podcast.
Starting point is 00:17:47 It's great stuff. And this is John from the 805, the Central Coast of California. Anyways, my favorite Southern rock band, I was never really big in the Almond Brothers, or definitely not like a dinner, although it's in my age group. But I really liked the pop-ish side, which is 38 special, and currently the newest one, I go crazy, I would get to the trucks. That's some good stuff. I've seen them a couple times live.
Starting point is 00:18:16 They're great. And I still want to know what year is the melaton you're playing. All right. Thanks, Jake. Keep it up. Great step. John, what's up, my man? I got to say, our tastes are pretty aligned on this.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I like the popier stuff, too. I did not grow up an Almond Brothers fan or even, you know, I had a brief Leonard-Skinner moment when I was really young getting into guitar, but it was fleeting. And whenever I hear 38 special, man, I am fucking reaching for that volume knob. I've had the pleasure of seeing Tedeschi trucks live and having my face melted and good stuff. Appreciate the call, John. Appreciate it. 907 writes in on this subject, Hey, Jake, the Southern rock band that popped into my mind first was 38 special. Well, there you go. Another 38 special. My friends and I spent many a night at the roller skating rink listening to their tunes as we circled the floor.
Starting point is 00:19:06 And as I transitioned into early adulthood, my allegiance transferred to the Black Crows, especially shake your moneymaker. 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 907, Lisa, I think we got a rock and roll high school teacher, Lisa. Is that what you are? I like it. Dig it.
Starting point is 00:19:30 816 writes in, hey, Black Crow's 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 Zizi Top died.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Yesterday, I got news of that. Rest in peace, Mr. Beard, PMA to your family. You know, Zizi Top, obviously an incredible band. People are going to say a lot of great things about the band
Starting point is 00:20:05 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 Zizi Top. They've defined their own complete niche inside of a niche. I don't even know. Niche isn't, niche is the wrong word for anything from Texas, because Texas is just big and figuratively and literally. there's just something about Texas
Starting point is 00:20:40 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, Zee-Tob. 7-0, Rima writes in, Rima from Joshua Tree, Southern rock bands, I'm going to stretch the classic definition with a few of these, but here's my short list.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Rima, Arizona's not the South. It's the Southwest. She does mention flat duo Jets. I'll accept that. Steve Earl Tennessee. So yeah. Tony Joe White. Yeah, definitely Southern. Lucinda Williams. Yep. Yep. The meters. Okay. All right. The oblivions, I don't know enough about, nor do I know enough about the grifters. Reema, right back, let me know about the grifters and the oblivions. Thank you. Appreciate the text. 617-906-6638. Guys, hit me up. Voicemail and text for next week's after party. Right. Hit me up. Let me know. Let me know.
Starting point is 00:21:39 what are the seminal bands from the different underground scenes throughout music history that we need to know about? Someone just called referenced in here text 250 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. 617-906-66-6-6-3-8, voicemail and text. All right, so back to the subject of the Allman Brothers.
Starting point is 00:22:11 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 1968, Dwayne Allman was recording as a session guitarist at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, with the legendary R&B artist Wilson Pickett. But when lunchtime came, Alman and Pickett were told to hang back at the studio
Starting point is 00:22:33 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. Alman and Pickett used their time alone in the studio, when they weren't at lunch, to record the Beatles' hey Jude. Dwayne Allman nailed the tune in one take. When Eric Clapton heard Dwayne Allman's playing on Wilson Pickett's Hey Jude, Eric Clapton, enlisted Dwayne Allman to join his new band Derek and the Domino's. The band's one and only album features the legendary track, Layla, which features Dwayne Allman in one of the greatest and most recognizable guitar solos of all time. A solo that wouldn't have happened had Dwayne Allman and Wilson Pickett not been forced to miss out on lunch that afternoon.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Thought you guys to dig that little piece of music history. We'll be right back after this. All right, welcome back guys. We've been talking about Southern Rock, Brother bands. Dwayne Allman, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Carter. You guys heard Jimmy Carter's solo album? I heard it's good though.
Starting point is 00:23:51 I heard that... What was his wife's name? Not Linda Carter. Fuck was his wife's name? I can't think about it. It was the sex thing with her. There was something. I don't know what it was.
Starting point is 00:24:05 It was a big deal. It wouldn't be a big deal now, but it was a big deal then. Anyhow, we're talking about a lot. Disgracelandpod at gmail.com. want to email us. Rosalyn Carter. She said something about sex and people lost their minds. I can't remember what it was. I got an email here. Hold on. I want to read this to you because it means we got some work to do. Let's see here. Okay, from Sean Hill. Good morning, Jake and Zeth. I hope you all

I'm part of the Sound and Fury membership on Patreon. And part of why I joined was it was mentioned that twice a year via Zoom for Sounded Fury members, select topics for future disgrace land episodes will be chosen by us, the listeners.

You're absolutely right. We're going to get together and we're going to figure out with the disgrace land listeners and all access to sound and fury members, we're going to figure out what episodes we're going to be covering next.

But my dad was the grandson of Thai Cobb and went to high school with Greg Allman in Daytona Beach. And I heard some stories.
Starting point is 00:26:42 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, loved, the Almond brothers in generally any and all Motown.

First of all, Ty Cobb, wow, that's just incredible. I recently watched three quarters of the Thai Cobb movie. And it was one of those things where I found the movie to be entertaining. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Super Hollywoodized biopic. I think there's lots of Thai Cobb. 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 ballplayers of all time. and just wild that I guess you're his great granddaughter.
Starting point is 00:28:15 That makes sense. Yeah, do I get that right? Sorry to hear about your father passing away, Laura. That is sad. And yikes, Agent Orange. Toriamos and Rain, we're going to get to it. I don't know how. I don't know when, but I love the angle.
