this is the thread for the Allman Brothers Band, because there hasn't been an all-encompassing one yet

I shouldn't say the "same" material actually - a lot of overlap, but they also do 18 numbers (the original Fillmore double LP and the Fillmore sides on Eat a Peach in total only covered 10) and a few of the Duane-era songs found here aren't on those earlier records too.

Continue to listen through various Allman Brothers archive releases.

Fillmore West 71 is good to excellent sound quality wise. ‘Elizabeth Reed’ on the first night is pretty wicked. Third night is probably the best show.

Fox Box from 2004 was an anniversary run of shows in Atlanta that is all worth hearing. Only ‘Dreams’ being the only tune played each night featuring a different soloist each night, including guest Jack Pearson. One reason to check these gigs out is the Brothers break out some killer covers including ‘I Walk on Guilded Splinters’ and ‘Franklin’s Tower’ with Oteil singing lead.

I need to check out that Fox Box, I've never heard that one.

Speaking of Oteil, I just listened to One Way Out, the last "new" live release they put out from a show in 2003. Heavy on Hittin' the Note material, but I dug it a lot more than I expected - Oteil is prominent in the mix and sounds great.

Dickey Betts has passed

one of the best to ever do it

Just saw this. Always a bit of an arm's-length interest, but I do love "Jessica," which Betts wrote (also "Little Martha," but that's Duane--I think Betts played on it, though).

mystical, magical, soaring… his playing really took me higher. RIP, will burn one to brothers and sisters tonight #youtubecomments

Wow, I didn't know that the notorious Grover Lewis "On The Road With The Allmans" piece in Rolling Stone ran alongside the last part of Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas. '70s Hedonism at its finest.
