Dickey Betts co-defined Southern rock guitar alongside Duane Allman, bringing country and western-swing melody to the Allman Brothers Band's twin-guitar attack. His lyrical, major-key soloing and classic instrumentals like 'Jessica' and 'In Memory of Elizabeth Reed' remain touchstones for rock guitarists.
