Our Review

Named for Dickey Betts’ farm outside Macon, Ga., Idlewild South was the Allmans’ second album. The 1970 release finds them plowing some jazzy ground akin to what Traffic was doing around the same time, but with a distinctly Southern touch. The eclectic tune stack introduced Betts’ instrumental “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed,” which would soon grow beyond its seven-minute length into one of the group’s true epics. “Revival” hooked into a tent-meeting groove, becoming an early airplay favorite, while this “Hootchie Cootchie Man” was a fine example of rowdy, focused sprawl. Of course, both Duane and Gregg Allman were hitting on all cylinders, on top of a powerhouse rhythm section verging on the polyrhythmic. Their next move – the double album recorded at New York’s Fillmore East – would make the Allman Brothers Band undeniable rock stars. But their power is already here to be heard.

Customer Reviews

Not this copy!!!! (5 stars)
This is a GREAT album, but this album and the first one are now together on BEGINNINGS. You'll save money and have twice as many songs to listen to.

Don't buy this! (5 stars)
This looks like a good deal, but do not buy it. Buy "Beginnings" instead. For only $3.06 more you get "Idlewild South" in its entirety PLUS the band's entire first album. Go see for yourself!

The Best Studio Album...A Perfect Masterpiece (5 stars)
This is one of the few albums i would consider to be perfect from start to finish. every song is classic material, even the lesser known songs "please call home" and "leave my blues at home" are wonderful; the former a heartbreaking ballad and the latter a powerhouse album closer. "midnight rider" is a nearly definitive song for the band, probabaly one of their most well known. "hoochie coochie man" is
