ディッキー・ベッツ
Around 1987, Haynes got a call to perform backup vocals on a studio album by Dickey Betts, along with Dennis Robbins. Betts, who had concentrated on his solo career following the break-up of The Allman Brothers Band, decided to add Haynes to his band as his guitarist after the session. With Matt Abts on drums and Johnny Neel on keyboards, the now formed Dickey Betts Band released the 1988 album "Pattern Disruptive". In the same year, Haynes also co-wrote the title track for Gregg Allman's solo album "Just Before the Bullets Fly."
