First and foremost, NOBODY sings Whippin' Post like Gregg Allman. That being said, I think Bo did the song justice and given the short time frame the band had to arrange the song, they killed it!! These guys are one of the best bands on TV, drummer Teddy Campbell is one of the main reasons to watch the show.

It's kind of like watching it in context of American Idol - it was a pretty good (I remember watching and thinking that when he 1st performed this) American Idol performance, but if you compare it to The Allmans doing the original I have to agree with my fellow YouTubers and say it blows.

I'm gonna start buying meat from Bo Bice, cause he sure is one hell of a butcher.(I'm saying he butchered the song)

I think the fact that Bo never sold out and stuck to his roots during the entire season speaks volumes about this guy... Great singer, and hope he does well!!! Long live Southern Rock!

This guy is the "rocker" of American Idol? Repulsive! How can grownups consume this pap?

This is like an amateur hour over-acted rendition. I would have stopped it after 4 bars. Sorry. I've seen the original back with the original band. Sorry Bo and the band, it just wasn't that good. Keep working on it. Watch the vibrato, pitch and melody. It almost has a metal rock attitude which is just wrong for this song.

I don't like it. Solo was about 10 seconds and wasn't remarkable. Vocals were ok but pretty much crappy compared to Gregg Allman's. First time I heard the Allman Brothers' version I thought the singer was a black guy. Also, they really fucked up the ending. In the original the ending was a beautiful jazz-like cadenza and this was just crap.

"The Allman Brothers rule but not bad for an amateur"...I think you got a good point here. I couldn´t sing an Allmans tune if my life depended on it, but this pales against the original.
