Allman Brothers - "Whipping Post": C/D?

This really is so much more than a mere "jam".

'At Fillmore East' is a pretty unique live record in rock music in how many different versions of the same show have been done and really the mixes are quite different on different releases.

I listened to the original mix and then the later 'Fillmore Concerts' in back to back evenings and beyond the differences in edits, it's kind of startling how different the mixes sound. Not that the later mix/edit is bad, it's a good album, but has a quite different sound to the mix. It's much more open with more stereo separation and space in the mix.

Anyone actually heard the old 70s Quadrophonic mix of this record? That seems like something that should be a bonus DVD add in at some point or maybe released when they go to some modern 24 bit master down the line.

Haven't got the later 2CD full show, original mix compilation that came out, but I love the record enough to definitely pick it up if I can find it used.

sometimes i feel

They're like an R&B version of Yes; what the hell's not to like?

oh shit

also you know what. this band was. great

they were!

Brad we often connect on music and I'm glad to hear that's the case here too, something soooo sweet about the Allmans when they're in the pocket

never realized how different Tom Dowd's mix on Beginnings is from the original mix on the debut album

Motorpsycho does a really cool half-cover of this song. It's the same bass line over an Allman Bros. style guitar jam. One of my favorite tracks of theirs

I don't know why I assumed a lot of ilxors wouldn't be into the Allmans, clearly they are. I say classic, both Whipping Post and the band, although I'm not like a true head or anything. I was in a covers band that did a version of Elizabeth Reed and it was really fun to learn the guitar part. We also attempted One Way Out with me on vocals but I am not meant to sing bluesy/gritty and feel very uncomfortable doing it.

The Derek and Warren version of "Whipping Post" on that 'Cream of the Crop' extended live album from 2003 is pretty awesome.

Recommend listening to the new Manley Field House '72 release if you want to hear what an absolute monster Berry Oakley was in detail - he's mixed really high and I'm here for it.

This was used in the latest season of Fargo to end an episode.

There’s a lot of the musical note “a” in this song. Perhaps too much
