    Wow, just amazing. This was the heyday of concerts. Dickey and Dan were such a great duo. Dan was so underrated and so was Dickey for that matter. Butch and Jaimoe were always the best. I wish I could go back and live it all over again. I was a senior in HS when this took place and all of the shows were just raw talent. God bless all of those who have passed for the great music and memories that will last for generations.

    I have loved the Allman Brothers since the 70s and always believed that Gregg Allman was one of the best blues singers ever not to mention the incredible talent of Dicky Betts and Duanne Allman. I finally got to see Gregg in 2015 at the San Diego County Fair and didn't regret a minute of it although I missed the great guitar undertones which were replaced by more horns, etc. to Gregg's delight and will. RIP Gregg thanks for the great music!

    THE HARP PLAYER = JIM ESSERY. Met Jim in Flagler Beach after surfing...there was a bar across from the pier, walked over and he was playing with a drummer who was taught by Artemis Pyle (Skynyrd) and accompanied by a guitar player whose name is Ace Moreland who was friends with Steve Gaines (Skynyrd post Ed King). The deep south and Florida is a magical, magical place. Been out in Koo Koo Fornia for too long...music scene out here can't touch what the south has....unless you are into P Diddy "Greatest Musician" that can't play an instrument (eyes rolling). it's sad. In any event - Jim and Ace were awesome, super nice and gave me some of their CDs for free. I LOVED hearing Jim's stories about playing with the ABB. Super great guy. Ace had a studio and I went out to play some drums at his studio (i play guitar, drums and sing) and got to hear more Steve Gaines stories and Derek Trucks too - Ace knew him / jammed with Derek when he was a kid. Artemis lived out in St. Augustine (12 min up north on A1A)...as did Jim. Ace and Jim both passed away relatively young. Long live Rock N' Roll! Cheers y'all!

      @randylahey5456 2 года назад +1

      @@larryn2682 Totally respect your opinion. But Dickey himself said that the reason they brought Warren into ABB was because he was the only one that didn’t play too much like Dickey…they didn’t need someone copping Dickey’s style and Warren pushed Dickey to be better. Not my words, but his.

    We lost the great Dickie Betts last night. What a killer Guitarist and what an amazing experience the ABB was. Absolutely the most destructive solo on Whipping Post I have ever heard. Hands down iMO "THE" Godfathers of Southern Rock and with the deepest roots in THE BLUES! Brother Jamoi is the last man standing now.

    Fun Facts on the theater in which this was filmed:
    - had it's own in house light show run by former Fillmore East crew under Bill Graham
    - became the new Fillmore after the Fillmore East and West closed
    - was a former Vaudeville theater and it had perfect acoustical properties due to grading of floors and walls, and the batting on the walls (this is why acts like Springsteen's Sept 1978 three night stand are legendary bootlegs today: the sounds the place allowed were unmatched for power and ferocity)
    - after Vaudeville era, and before the 1970's when it became a music venue, it was a porn theater, showing adult films to men who would literally sit in there all day and .... yes, that. True.
    Very historic venue for Rock and Roll. Everyone played the Capital from Prince to Springsteen to Stevie Ray Vaughan and The Dead and The Clash. amazing place

    While it's strange to say a player this famous in THIS famous and important a band could possibly be considered "underrated", I have to say Dickie comes close to being at least not as well appreciated as he should be. He was fucking amazing! Yeah, Dickie! Yeah, boys! And yeah, Bonnie, too!

      Dickie Betts was what gave the Allman Brothers their signature sound. Yes very underrated and one of my favorite guitarist, if not my favorite.

    David ( Rook) Goldflies on the Bass is terrific on this recording. His work on Pegasus is outstanding. Rook never got the credit he deserved for his contribution to this incarnation of The Brothers

      So true! In an interview on Tom Snyder Show, Gregg was talking about the band hiring a new bassist. When 'The Rook' began playing, the other bassist, trying out, packed up & left. That tells it all about the talent Goldflies brought to ABB.

      Yes, I've read GA's so many times. It's actually on my nightstand. GA & ABB are my all time favorites still to this day. GA, after awhile, thought Goldflies played too many chords & was playing more for Dickey than ABB. Yet, Goldflies was good for the band at that time & he was great on Black Betty with Ram Jam.

      @@sblair6362 Dickey could be very demanding of his bassists, and Gregg had in mind what he wanted to hear on his songs too. Goldflies did a good job for sure. Shame that the keyboards kind of hide his playing on Reach for the Sky and Brothers of the Road. He's loud and clear on Enlightened Rogues.

      @@Cpayne30 Dickey began to drown Gregg out. He started to play so loud that everyone got fed up with his playing. That & his mean disposition finally drove Warren & Allen to quit. After Dickey left ABB (I know his departure can be disputed), once again Gregg's playing could be heard. I love Derek's technique but w/o Dickey, it just wasn't the ABB I fell in love with 40 yrs ago.

    This was a good line up of the reassembled ABB. Dan Toler was a good guitar player that complimented Dickey quite well. Sad he's gone like so many of the others.

      I thought this Enlightened Roques album came out a year later? I do remember that Album, and as I recall I saw them shortly after this album came out in Ohio. Still.... they were great and their music will always be the best, no matter how old I get! I saw them live at least 4 times... the most ever, too. AND I wish that I could always see them again and again....until they put me in the ground.
