It's hard to say,that one band,is the best.The Beatles,Stones.On and on.But for me,this group of brothers,just strike a groove in me,that no other band has ever done.Long live the Allman Brothers Band
To me the Allman Brothers Band was the non mainstream music of the '70's and the Beatles, Stones, were mainstream music. They had a faithful following and we loved them, still do.
They were beyond a band. It's like the great John Coltrane quartet or Miles Davis quintet...all those musicians individually were just amazing. Together they were magic. The chemistry and interaction of them all creating together.
Sorry - I love the Allmans, but Peter Green had already defined the era for his generation of bluesmen - and left the stage for good - by the time this was committed to tape. ruclips.net/video/-j4t3cUmGzc/видео.html
Saw the ABB at The Warehouse when they were the backup band for Albert King in the 70's. We went to see Mr. King but The Brothers stole the show (no disrespect to Mr. King). I was a musician back then and our band immediately gravitated the the Southern Rock style of the ABB. I even dedicated a guitar to playing slide alone. We went back to see them every chance we got. Such great times and memories. God Bless them and I thank them for their hard work and creativity.
I had just graduated high school and the music scene was intense from A Warehouse every weekend. Allmans, ZZ Top, Fleetwood Mac, Grateful Dead, and the Doors. A little later West Bruce and Lang what a concert So much fun great time to grow up

I was there tripping like everybody else. They played until 3:30 am Probably the best nivht of my life Duane was the best guitar player of all time bar none.His death was the greatest musical tragedy of all time.Long live his legacy and that of his band,The Allman Brothers Band!
Just kicked in 2023 the right way, listening to timeless tunes, best wishes to all and hope we can continue to listen to fine music like this. Wail on Skydog and Bros. !!!
Back in the day (1960's), the Allmans were what we garage bands in the Daytona Beach area aspired to be. I recall them playing at the Martinique teen club, and, prior to that, these two red-headed kids, with a drummer and bass player, performed at our ninth grade dance. As a drummer in a mixed-race band in 1968, I had the privilege of sitting in with Duane at that very same Martinique club during one of our practice sessions. The entire music world reeled at the news of his passing. No telling what heights he would have achieved had he lived beyond his 24 years.
I’m from Daytona also, and the big club was the Martinique , you could get wild and crazy back in those days. The Allmand brothers were unbelievable, when I heard whipping post , that was it for me. Still to this day
born in 1950 I got it all, first concert jimmy at the shrine auditorium 1969 saw them all and live my best life ....wish something was left for you'll all ...
Ain’t that the truth. We had it all and then some when it came to great music. I have said before I wish I could “download” my musical listening catalog into someone else’s brain and see the reaction.
I've heard damned near every boot from the Duane era - and this is the best I ever heard "Dreams". Holy crap - that was on another level! Performance-wise, this may be one of the very best boots ever...
Oh yeah only thing that could have made it the best one was that Feb 28 Brewer Field House dreams part where he milked that d note with the slide into feedback and then did what he does to wet the pantys (if that part was used in this solo it would be the best one ever)
@@usernameinvalid2675 Just listened to it, and wow! That was really cool! Definitely one of the more unique solos I ever heard him do on that song. Two other things of note on that. I'd imagine that the batteries in the tape unit might have been going dead. I noticed that the tone was up almost half a step high (D#), but it was still a killer version. Also - I'm not sure I've ever heard a version where Jaimoe was out in the front of the drumming mix so much. Really gives you a great idea of what all he was doing around Butch. Thanks for sharing that, though. Still one of my all-time favorite songs...
@@cornfilledscreamer614 yeah I *^*%% love it he had something nobody else had in the passion of improvisational music Glad you liked it ,I was turned To that by my next door neighbor he is 73 and was there that night right I. Front of Duane drove 100 miles said it was the coldest night of his life ha he went on to roadie for Asleep at the wheel and Billy Jo Shaver had photos to back it up But his account of the ABB that night and Duane gives me chills
The Best Jam Band Ever, At work one day, i guy said that the Allman Bros. And Lynyrd Skynyrd sound the same, We got in A Braul, I won, I told him that he Tone Deaf, Thier Music is Totally Different, R.I.P To All, Cousin Figel
Yer damn right!lol good for you! I don’t ever really consider the Allman Bros. to be “Southern Rock”, I only hear blues, mainly. Along with Jazz and country and folk (sometimes), but I just consider them a blues band. Even Skynyrd is, or was, a blues & country band. Idk if I’d consider them Southern Rock, either.lol
I merely liked Skynyrd. I totally adored the Brothers. Totally different league. The Brothers, with their original cast, are right up there with the Stones and the Beatles.
This ia AMAZING, of course Ive been a fan of ABB since 1971, when i got Live at Fillmore East, then there was mo turning back, i was & still sm hooked😊😊😊😊😊
Talk about a band that came along at just the right time. Audiences had pretty big ears accepting and celebrating a band with all these eclectic influences (jazz, blues, rock, psychedelic) melded together into a unique sound. Don't think it could happen the same way now.
The warehouse barn in macon been there what a neat place to see the brothers picked a killer hot spot to throw a concert duane dickey berry the best three guitar attack I ever heard gregg Allman's hammond b 3 just a smoking jamiejoe converse zephyrhills florida
That was perfect. Beautiful words that made me cry thinking all but one of these amazing men are no longer with us. The music they made together will always be heard.
Very few bands can duplicate live what they record in the studio. Allmans were probably the best live band I have ever seen. They would get in the flow of a tune and just soar to new heights. Duane gets the most recognition but all 6 originals were incredible musicians .
Quote: "Very few bands can duplicate live what they record in the studio" ... The Yes were one of such bands, although their styles are not comparable ...
In those days, there were several years in a row where the Allman Brothers performed New Year's Eve at the Warehouse. After they played their set, they jammed for most of the night. They loved playing there.
This was the 2nd show I atttened at age 15 at The Warehouse. The 1st was Ten Years after with Mylon opening. Doctor John The Night Tripper opened. Till this day my favorite show. I remember being mesmerized, trying to scan between all 6 of The Allmans no matter who was soloing. I was allso there when ZZ TOP recored Fandango. Great times at The Warehouse
I attended that concert at The Warehouse in New Orleans. It was incredible. Seeing the pictures from inside The Warehouse and listening to the music brings back memories of one amazing night.
I would have loved to seen the first incarnation of the band with Duane, but in 1970, I was only 11 year,s old. I started listening to them in 1972! You were a lucky man! God 🙌 bless
I was there tripping like everybody else.They played until 3:30 am.Probably the best night of my life.Duane Allman was the best guitar player of all time bar none!His death was the biggest music tragedy of all time.Long live his legacy and that of his band,The Allman Brothers Band,the best band of all time!
Dreams was one of those songs Duane just magically expressed so much emotion, so much depth, just incredible power each time he played it. Never the same way twice but each one perfection.
I was at this concert. Back then we went to a lot of concerts at the warehouse. This is the Allmann Brothers side of ShaNaNa opening. .This was my first concert at the warehouse. I was 15.
New Years at The Warehouse New Orleans I always love telling this ABB story ! It was Christmas 1970. I was talking on the phone with one of the Roosman girls Joanie Or Donna? They gave me Gregg's phone number. To explain to you younger people this was BEFORE cell phones,,,way back then ...he he. I also want to explain Gregg and I were already good friends having met on Gaslight Square in about 1967 or 68? Well I rang up his number and Gregg said hey man we are playing the Warehouse in New Orleans New Years....,and as both of the brothers always did, he said "Come On Down". Well I told him I just might do that and he said he would put me on the guest list. I was starting to get excited on the possibly of seeing everyone. I called up a drummer friend of mine Lanny Boles and said hey man you want to go to New Orleans and see The Allman Brothers. I had about $50 for gas and I think we had to leave the next day to get there in time. So we drove all day and then it turned to night. There was a stretch across Louisiana that we were low on gas. We would pull into a place and the gas pumps didn't work. Finally we found one that did, Then we were heading down Canal Street to go to the Warehouse. Lanny parked the car and I went up to the window and asked if my name was on the guest list and they looked and said no. So we paid for a ticket.....and I swear this is the truth we walked in, after driving all that way and almost running out of gas!!! ...To the announcement of...AND NOW THE ALLMAN BROS BAND. I know it was just like in the movies.....Well as we tried to move closer to the stage it was really hard to get though. We finally got up to the left side and I looked up to see some guys standing on side of the stage and one of them was Michael Callahan. He told the security guy to let that guy up and pointed to me. I motioned that Lanny was with me so we both were up on the side of the stage. For those who have never been to the Warehouse on that side of the stage there is a wide ramp leading up to a dressing room. So the band exits right off the sage up the ramp to the dressing room which we were now sitting in watching the show. Then the band took a break. They came off stage and I remember Jaimoe had a practice pad he was banging on. I guess he didn't want to cool down. Berry said something about he wasn't sure about how to play Aulde Ange Sine. Duane instantly grabbed his guitar and said There's nothing to it...it's just this...this and this. Well I am sure they said hi to us ect. Then they took the stage MIDNIGHT....and I tell you May Old Acquaintance be forgot.....played by the Original Six Was a ONCE IN A LIFETIME deal for me BEST NEW YEARS EVER 1970. After that we went back to where they were staying which was a motel on Airline Hiway. It was an older Motel and had a bar attached. There was no one in the bar. B.O. might have been up at the bar. We got a drink and Gregg walked over to this upright piano that was sitting there. He sat down and said “ I want to play you this new song that I have written.” The song as he banged it out on that old out of tune piano was Midnight Rider.
Awesome freaking story man, loved it. Really didn't want it to end. I was only 2 years old at this time but grew up w older brothers so I've always loved these boys. And Skynyrd! Greg and Ronnie's voice just make me melt. Don't know which one of them I would have married if I would've been a lil older. I mean that and very confident of it. But thanks for your story man.
It just goes to show , we followed these guys wherever.This show gives the Fillmore a run for its money,note for note. Practice ,practice, practice,then rehearse.
Elizabeth Reed is beyond belief, the best of any I have heard by far!!! Just so everyone is clear Dickey solos 1st and Duane 2nd on it. Their guitar tone, phrasing are quite different.
lol to whoever wants folks to sit down during Stormy Monday. I wouldn’t. How can you sit down with The AAB playing? The Warehouse was a special place and the musicians flocked to it.
I saw Elvis Costello play in the Warehouse in '81 just before it closed. It was quite a venue and I remember leaning against one of those giant wooden beams. The ABB were incredibly tight, note how they played almost continuously with very few breaks between songs. I saw them in '71 just before Duane was killed and he was just amazing. What a shame that only Dickey Betts and Jaimoe are left.
I've had this CD for many years, yet never have seen this photo/documentary of the show....after 40 yrs. of following the 'Brothers' I am just humbled and blown away seeing the pics of the Greatest Rock Band to ever put a live show on. After all these years, I am no less moved than I was the very first time I heard them in 1970. I can't wait to get back to the 'Big House' this spring and pay them the honor they deserve....Freakin' Awesome Brothers !!!
Dan L - the photos are from the March 20 show. I’ve had copies of both shows since 1974. These shows at The Warehouse were awesome. There are two show circulating that say they are from New Years Eve. I’ve never been able to figure that out. Both have references to New Years.
When they play Dimples you can tell they listened to a LOT of early Fleetwood Mac. Duane and Dickey were the 2nd coming of Peter and Danny. (that's Duane singing, by the way)
great still pics in sync with the song parts and breaks, always a wonder how good this band was and to hear these different shows that still amaze me over and over again is testament to the true genius that keeps unfolding to our ears and musical minds. Highest praise to the original ABB forever
Yeah, the got the solos/pics mixed up on ‘Dimples’ as well but what an effort. I want to say these photos are of the actual 12/31 gig; not positive tho.
If this is an audience recorded 'bootleg' the quality is pretty good. Lots of tape re-recordign hiss, but a you can hear all the instruments, as well as two or three audience members up close. Regardless, the playing is extremely exciting! There are some 'dropouts' skips, which makes me think it might have been on vinyl.
Same month and year , December 1970 , the Doors did their last live concerts in New Orleans and Dallas. Ironic , ABB was in their hey day from 1969 to 1972 and the Doors, from 1967 to 1971. Two of the best U.S.A. bands ever to exemplify what was going on in our American scene at the time.
In 67 Before Doors hit the big time they played at the National Guard Armory in Annapolis Md. They also booked another show in northern Virginia the same night. Morrison got so drunk at the Annapolis show his band mates left him behind to catch his own ride. I was one lucky duck to grow up during those times
Mark/Greenman, I got this copy from a taper 'on line' and don't remember any of the details. I encourage you to get this....it just melts my heart at this age, thinking I've heard, (and seen) the most passionate musicians through ABB, that ever lived. I know you can find this...and hope you do. I've indoctrinated my sons to the faith of ABB, and at 35, 36. both military, they still 'bear the cross' of these awesome musicians. All the best, and Good Luck. The road goes on forever !
RIP Gregg form New Orleans "The Warehouse" was your second home...1820 Tchoupitoulas...to bad the only radio station here now is Bayou 95.7 played one hour tribute and then back to Bon Jovi and that "BS"...Could have played all day and have locals call in and tell their stories...now that would been a tribute to the greatest Jam Band ever...would someone please buy Bayou 95.7 and move them to New Jersey so we can get a real Classic Rock Station...
Duane Allman, Greg Allman and Dickie Betts, like putting Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Joe Cocker in the same group--a couple of Les Paul's vs. a couple of Fender stratocasters. Whipping Post and One Way Out on Fillmore East Live, southern rock doesn't get any better.
🎉Does anybody know we're I can buy a copy of this. The name of this location and what it was reminds me of the sixties and early seventies. If there was a big hall or building there were really good bands. There are bands that play there music. I always will stick around and listen. Even though you can hear what they are missing in there music it makes me feel better to hear it. There will never be ànybody that can top them. I hope there kids succeed in carrying out the legacy. Amen.
Set List: Statesboro Blues Trouble No More Don’t Keep Me Wonderin’ Dreams Dimples Leave my Blues at Home Stormy Monday Hoochie Coochie Man You Don’t Love Me Elizabeth Reed Pretty Woman Revival Whipping Post Mountain Jam The Band: Gregg Allman - organ, vocals; Duane Allman - guitar; Dicky Betts - guitar; Berry Oakley - bass; Butch Trucks - drums; Jai Johanny Johanson - percussion

To me the Allman Brothers Band was the non mainstream music of the '70's and the Beatles, Stones, were mainstream music. They had a faithful following and we loved them, still do.
I'm with you
They were beyond a band. It's like the great John Coltrane quartet or Miles Davis quintet...all those musicians individually were just amazing. Together they were magic. The chemistry and interaction of them all creating together.
@@thebreathalyzer Well said ..... and very true
Yeah, same here! I think it was the combination of blues, rock, jazz and country that blew me away...and Greg's voice!
In their prime. .no other band could play the blues like The Brothers.
GOD REST THEIR SOULS
Sorry - I love the Allmans, but Peter Green had already defined the era for his generation of bluesmen - and left the stage for good - by the time this was committed to tape.

And nobody can but them. Tedeschi Trucks the closest thing I've heard.
Saw the ABB at The Warehouse when they were the backup band for Albert King in the 70's. We went to see Mr. King but The Brothers stole the show (no disrespect to Mr. King). I was a musician back then and our band immediately gravitated the the Southern Rock style of the ABB. I even dedicated a guitar to playing slide alone. We went back to see them every chance we got.

Berry said something about he wasn't sure about how to play Aulde Ange Sine. Duane instantly grabbed his guitar and said There's nothing to it...it's just this...this and this. Well I am sure they said hi to us ect.
Then they took the stage MIDNIGHT....and I tell you May Old Acquaintance be forgot.....played by the Original Six Was a ONCE IN A LIFETIME deal for me BEST NEW YEARS EVER 1970. After that we went back to where they were staying which was a motel on Airline Hiway. It was an older Motel and had a bar attached. There was no one in the bar. B.O. might have been up at the bar. We got a drink and Gregg walked over to this upright piano that was sitting there. He sat down and said “ I want to play you this new song that I have written.” The song as he banged it out on that old out of tune piano was Midnight Rider.
What a awesome beautiful highlighted night im sure!!
I love hearing stories like that!! Thanks for sharing your awesome experience with us!!
Beyond amazing! Great story!
Great story. Best 6 shooters ever period. Blackstrat.net tells all about The Warehouse. Ck it out👌🏼
Awesome freaking story man, loved it. Really didn't want it to end. I was only 2 years old at this time but grew up w older brothers so I've always loved these boys. And Skynyrd! Greg and Ronnie's voice just make me melt. Don't know which one of them I would have married if I would've been a lil older. I mean that and very confident of it. But thanks for your story man.
Dual drummers give such a solid groove base !
Best American band ever!
Yup, and early Dead
It just goes to show , we followed these guys wherever.This show gives the Fillmore a run for its money,note for note. Practice ,practice, practice,then rehearse.
You can tell when they start the second song that they were destined for greatness.
This is so cool....and was BEFORE "Live at Fillmore East" was recorded! Wow! ✌️ They were all ON, man. Greg sounded great! So tight...
Thanks John DuBois memories not forgotten but treasured
Before Dickie’s cowboy/country period kicked in ! He WAS better in this phase 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
monster musicians all of them
One of my favorite shows!!
There is no band today playing at that level…
I always used to think live at Fillmore East was a special night, not really, these cats smoked every night, this Warehouse show proves that🎉❤
Elizabeth Reed is beyond belief, the best of any I have heard by far!!! Just so everyone is clear Dickey solos 1st and Duane 2nd on it. Their guitar tone, phrasing are quite different.
everthing they played was Phenominal, jus sayin !😎✌😎!
lol to whoever wants folks to sit down during Stormy Monday. I wouldn’t. How can you sit down with The AAB playing?
The Warehouse was a special place and the musicians flocked to it.
I saw Elvis Costello play in the Warehouse in '81 just before it closed. It was quite a venue and I remember leaning against one of those giant wooden beams. The ABB were incredibly tight, note how they played almost continuously with very few breaks between songs. I saw them in '71 just before Duane was killed and he was just amazing. What a shame that only Dickey Betts and Jaimoe are left.
😪
Love those Stereo Audience tapes. That means someone dragged in a recorder and two microphones.
I thought of that too.
Been to the warehouse quite a few times but I missed this one
Love that slide guitar!
Eat a Peach revisited! Duane and Dicky really had something special, and what a bass player they had as well.
In 1971, I saw them in Cincinnati, I helped the Roadies carry in the equipment and got to hang out on the side of the stage. I'll never forget 🎉
I've had this CD for many years, yet never have seen this photo/documentary of the show....after 40 yrs. of following the 'Brothers' I am just humbled and blown away seeing the pics of the Greatest Rock Band to ever put a live show on. After all these years,
I am no less moved than I was the very first time I heard them in 1970. I can't wait to get back to the 'Big House' this spring and pay them the honor they deserve....Freakin' Awesome Brothers !!!
Where did you get this cd. I want a copy please
Dan L - the photos are from the March 20 show. I’ve had copies of both shows since 1974. These shows at The Warehouse were awesome.
There are two show circulating that say they are from New Years Eve. I’ve never been able to figure that out. Both have references to New Years.
It was " The Warehouse ' in New Orleans
When they play Dimples you can tell they listened to a LOT of early Fleetwood Mac. Duane and Dickey were the 2nd coming of Peter and Danny. (that's Duane singing, by the way)
1 of my 13 Allman bros concerts
funny coordinating the still shots with what's happening in the song... very funny. fun.
great still pics in sync with the song parts and breaks, always a wonder how good this band was and to hear these different shows that still amaze me over and over again is testament to the true genius that keeps unfolding to our ears and musical minds. Highest praise to the original ABB forever
Those are photos of Duane while Dickey takes the first solo in Elizabeth Reed.
…and photos of Dickey while Duane takes his *unmistakable* Elizabeth Reed solo following Gregg’s turn in the spotlight on the organ.
Yeah, the got the solos/pics mixed up on ‘Dimples’ as well but what an effort. I want to say these photos are of the actual 12/31 gig; not positive tho.
AWESOME 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
If this is an audience recorded 'bootleg' the quality is pretty good. Lots of tape re-recordign hiss, but a you can hear all the instruments, as well as two or three audience members up close. Regardless, the playing is extremely exciting! There are some 'dropouts' skips, which makes me think it might have been on vinyl.
Dreams - I’m at a loss for words.
Pretty good sound for primitive equipment. Great band, great content.
Same month and year , December 1970 , the Doors did their last live concerts in New Orleans and Dallas. Ironic , ABB was in their hey day from 1969 to 1972 and the Doors, from 1967 to 1971. Two of the best U.S.A. bands ever to exemplify what was going on in our American scene at the time.
In 67 Before Doors hit the big time they played at the National Guard Armory in Annapolis Md. They also booked another show in northern Virginia the same night. Morrison got so drunk at the Annapolis show his band mates left him behind to catch his own ride. I was one lucky duck to grow up during those times
im laughing so hard. your panning the photos to make it seems like a live show. thanks for your effort. you rock
You're right 😂 LMFAO
Yes, great results for the most part. But why so many people confuse Duane and Dickey on Elizabeth Reed is a mystery to me.
I saw that concert at The Warehouse in New Orleans on New Years eve 1970.
Wet Willie was warm up band.....recorded their live album
I think Dr. John was the opener. Wet Willie New Years 71
Thank You Taper 🙏🔥🎶🎶💕
24 yrs old...........unbelieveable
Gregg Allman .R.l.P.
Mark/Greenman, I got this copy from a taper 'on line' and don't remember any of the details. I encourage you to get this....it just melts my heart at this age, thinking I've heard, (and seen) the most passionate musicians through ABB, that ever lived. I know you can find this...and hope you do. I've indoctrinated my sons to the faith of ABB, and at 35, 36. both military, they still 'bear the cross' of these awesome musicians. All the best, and Good Luck. The road goes on forever !
Andforever

😅/'🇯🇵
thank you for posting
Play till 2:00 in the morning at the Warehouse and go set up in City Park and Jam for free later that afternoon.
They'll never be another
yes, I remember those days
Whoever thumbed this down slap yourself !!!!!!!!
It's probably the lack of actual video.
RIP Gregg form New Orleans "The Warehouse" was your second home...1820 Tchoupitoulas...to bad the only radio station here now is Bayou 95.7 played one hour tribute and then back to Bon Jovi and that "BS"...Could have played all day and have locals call in and tell their stories...now that would been a tribute to the greatest Jam Band ever...would someone please buy Bayou 95.7 and move them to New Jersey so we can get a real Classic Rock Station...
we already have that station here in nj. its q104.3. i want wnew back. and id love to here some stories from new orleans
Bon Jovi, couldn,t even carry their equipment! Bon Jovi suck,s!!
Russ liberty: you couldn't have worded that any better!!
Rejuvenating stuff .. long time
This is awesome
Duane Allman, Greg Allman and Dickie Betts, like putting Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Joe Cocker in the same group--a couple of Les Paul's vs. a couple of Fender stratocasters. Whipping Post and One Way Out on Fillmore East Live, southern rock doesn't get any better.
Thank you very much for posting. Brings back memories I thought I'd never see again.
Just happened to stumble upon this gem whilst doin' modern interweb stuff...much love!!! Thanks to the uploader...cheers!!!!
🎉Does anybody know we're I can buy a copy of this. The name of this location and what it was reminds me of the sixties and early seventies. If there was a big hall or building there were really good bands. There are bands that play there music. I always will stick around and listen. Even though you can hear what they are missing in there music it makes me feel better to hear it. There will never be ànybody that can top them. I hope there kids succeed in carrying out the legacy. Amen.
