Tonight’s mystery artist are brothers whose father was killed by a hitchhiker.  Think you know who this tragic story belongs to or their band??

I found this sad fact on Rhino Grooves about Duane and Greg Allman, whose dad was killed when the boys were small. Duane was three years old and Greg was only two years old. Their dad had picked up a hitchhiker who ended up killing him. This happened in 1949.

Pilot online tells the story:

Willis Turner Allman, was murdered the night after Christmas in 1949. It all happened in what is now Norfolk, where the Allmans briefly lived at the time while Willis, a 31-year-old second lieutenant in the Army, was stationed at Fort Story. The night of the murder, his wife, Geraldine, and their sons were visiting family for the holidays in North Carolina.

And here they with tonight's featured song.
