"Blue Sky" is a song by the American rock band the Allman Brothers Band from their third studio album, Eat a Peach (1972), released on Capricorn Records. The song was written and sung by guitarist Dickey Betts, who penned it about his girlfriend (and later wife), Sandy "Bluesky" Wabegijig. The track is also notable as one of guitarist Duane Allman's final recorded performances with the group. The band's two guitarists, Duane Allman and Dickey Betts, alternate playing the song's lead: Allman's solo beginning 1:07 in, Betts joining in a shared melody line at 2:28, followed by Betts's solo at 2:37. The song is notably more country-inspired than many songs in the band's catalogue.

  • Blue Sky ist der achte Titel auf dem Eat a Peach-Doppelalbum der Allman Brothers Band's aus dem Jahr 1972. Dickey Betts komponierte es über seine indianische Freundin Sandy „Bluesky“ Wabegijig, welche er später heiratete. Der Allman Brothers-Gitarrist Duane Allman und Betts spielen abwechselnd die Lead-Gitarre während des Songs. Allmans Solo beginnt nach 1:07 min, gefolgt von Betts' Solo ab der Minute 2:37. Sandlin sagte dazu: „Als ich die Songs wie Blue Sky abmischte, wußte ich natürlich, dass ich die letzten Sachen hörte, von allem was Duane je gespielt hatte und es war ein Gefühl von Schönheit und Trauer, zu wissen, es würde nichts mehr von ihm geben.“ (Original: „As I mixed songs like Blue Sky," I knew, of course, that I was listening to the last things that Duane ever played and there was just such a mix of beauty and sadness, knowing there's not going to be any more from him...“). Während Duane Allman starb, bevor das Album Eat a Peach's veröffentlicht wurde, hatte die Band den Song mehrmals live gespielt, bevor die Studioversion aufgenommen wurde. Nur eine dieser Live-Aufführungen wurde mitgeschnitten. Es war während eines Konzertes am 19. September 1971 im in New York. Von anderen Auftritten der Band zirkulieren mehrere Bootlegs. Blue Sky war Dickey Betts' Debüt als Leadsänger der Allman Brothers Band. Er hatte vorher lediglich zwei Songs für das zweite Album der Band, Idlewild South komponiert, Revival, den ersten Titel des Albums, bei dem Gregg Allman Leadsänger war, und das Instrumental . Blue Sky wurde mehrmals gecovert, am bekanntesten ist die Version von Joan Baez auf ihrem Diamonds & Rust-Album von 1975 und der späteren Single-Auskopplung. Zwei Aufnahmen von Blue Sky wurden 2012 aufgeführt, ein Allman Brothers-Mitschnitt vom SUNY Stony Brook/Eat a Peach-Original (mit Warren Haynes als Leadsänger, während Gregg Allman zwischendurch übernahm), und ein Arrangement welches zwischen 1973 und 2001 entstand, gespielt von Dickey Betts und seiner Band Great Southern.
