History
The Hour Glass were a 1960s rhythm and blues band based in Los Angeles, California between 1967 and 1968. Among their members were two future members of The Allman Brothers Band - Duane Allman and his brother Gregg Allman - and three future studio musicians at the world-renowned Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama - Pete Carr, Johnny Sandlin and Paul Hornsby.
Formed from the ashes of two disbanded rival groups that had played the same southern circuit, The Allman Joys (based in Florida) and the Men-its (based in Alabama), the group was booked in early 1967 into a month-long engagement in St. Louis, Missouri, where they met members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, whose manager, Bill McEuen, arranged for them a contract with Liberty Records.
