Southern ro 1 returns to n From Staff Reports A driving force behind Southern rock 'n' roll comes close to home Tuesday night as Warren Haynes, acclaimed guitarist and member of The Allman Brothers Band, plays at Rockafellas'. Haynes, an Asheville, N.C. native, got his start playing pool parties and walk-a-thons and hanging around a local nightclub. After word eot out that the "kid" could play guitar, the regulars decided to see what he could do and offered him the stage. Haynes remembers playing the guitar he was given. "This guy played left-handed, but he played it upside-down. So I played his left-handed guitar and turned it over. It was tuned right, but it was kinda awkward," Haynes said. Haynes' love of music began at eight or nine years old when he gained an appreciation for Smokey Robinson, Otis Redding anrl Wi1<inn PirVptt "The really strong singers really knocked me out," Haynes said. "Levi Stubbs of The Four Tops is still one of my favorite voices of all time. And I always liked B.B. King, even before I liked the blues. His voice was the main thing." Soon, however, Haynes' attention turned to guitar and rock 'n' roll. "I really liked Eric Clapton. He was the first guitar hero that I had," Haynes said. "I remember the first time I heard 'Layla' on the radio. It hit me as hard as anything has ever hit me. I had never heard anything like that." When Haynes was 20, he received a call from David Allan Coe. Haynes played with Coe from 1980 to 1984 and met Dickey Betts and Gregg Allman through him. This was to prove a fateful union. tka A llmnn YV lluil lilt/ /Ailllian LllUUltlO reformed for their 1989 Reunion MON., MAY 3 & WED., MAY 5 &7 FRI.,M SAT., Mi SUN., A # Ca vy ck pioneer is roots i ^?. jBk. ~ M Wmm JH A Haynes ef ' I 'r\ !< \1/Aivati mnn rttimn (V\a r?o11 iuui, vvoiit/ii waa ui^ v*aii. r^. Haynes is quick to point out, se however, that he was not a replacement for Duane Allman, j,e the leader of the band who was ^ killed in a motorcycle accident. vi "I don't remember exactly or what I was doing when I heard about Duane's death, but I do cj. remember hearing about it, and it t0 really saddened everybody," tV? Haynes said. "There's no point sa for me to play guitar parts the way Duane Allman played them. p? But I also have to play enough tu like myself to where people don't se think I'm cloning Duane ^ Allman." m That will probably not be said ( of Haynes' new album "Tales Of sc Ordinary Madness," with which he steps into a spotlight of his te own. S( "People expect a guitar record. Or they expect a Southern rock sa record," Haynes said. "They at think, 'Even if he does sing, it ci won't be the focus of the record.' af But singing is what I've always done. The songs and my voice G are the focus of the record. .. with a whole lot of guitar playing going on." 1 :t, of course, xrling...
