View More By The Allman Brothers Band Our ReviewIt's easy to hear why Fillmore East comes up in every "best live album of all time" conversation. All of the Southern blues-rockers' many assets are on full display on this 1971 juggernaut: Gregg Allman's gritty vocals and grooving organ work, the dynamic twin lead guitars of Duane Allman and Dickey Betts, the two-drummer attack of Jaimoe and Butch Trucks. The set roars out of the gate with four blues covers before culminating with two original instrumentals and an epic, frenzied, 23-minute version of their signature "Whipping Post." The band's combination of strength and subtlety and their mastery of ebb and flow are nothing short of remarkable. Jazzy tinges distinguish T-Bone Walker's "Stormy Monday." while other tracks pulsate with ferocity and intensity: "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" puts the whole package together in one incredible statement.. Customer ReviewsThe Best Live Album ever just got better (5 stars)This is the best live album ever recorded plus more. The original recording consisting of “Statesboro Blues,” “Done Somebody Wrong,” “Stormy Monday,” “You Don’t Love Me,” “Hot ‘Lanta,” “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed,” and “Whipping Post,” has been augmented now in the CD age to recreate the entire concert. Most of the extras come from EAT A PEACH, the studio/live hybrid album, along with some tracks from the DUA Arguably the Best Live Album Ever (5 stars) This is one of the two or three greatest live albums of all time (in fact, many would consider it the greatest, along with The Who's Live at Leeds.) The guitar work on here is unparalled, with Duane Allman and Dickey Betts going back and forth. For those who like extended jams, it doesn't get much better than "Whipping Post" and "Mountain Jam". If you have never really gotten into ABB before, buy this album! I had never r Buy "Midnight Rider" from here, and then buy the "Fillmore Concerts" album. (1 star) This Deluxe edition restores the same chops and edits that Tom Dowd put on the original tracks (ie. the removal of Thom Douchette's entire harp solo from "Stormy Monday", and the a few guitar and harp solos on "You Don't Love Me"). This deluxe edition is given the "Europe '72" treatment. Instead of crossfading tracks to give it the feel of one concert, the songs are edited seperately, which is what the Dead did BiographyFormed: 1969 in Macon, GAGenre: Rock Years Active: '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s The story of the Allman Brothers Band is one of triumph, tragedy, redemption, dissolution, and a new redemption. Over nearly 30 years, they've gone from being America's single most influential band to a has-been group trading on past glories,...
