I never heard that version.
I am real familiar with this version by Eric Clapton: Please Be With Me
FYI, Duanne Allman played on the original recording of this Clapton song.
Melissa is probably my favorite Allman Brothers song.
Melissa is the best song ever.
It's the best!
Love Melissa also. You can't beat turning "Melissa" on and up loud, up then rolling down the windows on the first panhandle trip of spring.
"Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah.
The gypsy flies from coast to coast,
Knowing many, loving none,
Bearing sorrow, having fun.
But, back home he'll always run,
To sweet Melissa."
I do like Clapton’s version also, of “Please be with me.”
