I think there are actually 5 in the running: Allmans at the Fillmore, Skynyrd's One More from the Road, The Who's Live at Leeds, Derek and the Dominoes In Concert, and CSNY's Four WAY Street.
Fillmore East was in NYC; Fillmore West was in San Francisco. And just remember for the future, this is the last time that you will see Duane live because he died about a month or 2 after this concert, in fact the live double album from this concert which put the Allman Brothers on the map, came out after Duane Allman tragically died in a motorcycle accident. The next album Eat a Peach went through the roof, and it was a double album tribute to Duane. Duane was on just 3 songs on what was supposed to be a single album. But they put on the 3 songs Duane played on the same side and added two more cuts from their Fillmore concert, this song and Trouble No More which highlighted Duane's amazing slide guitar. This became Side 3. Side 1 had 3 great new songs, recorded after Duane's death, two by Gregg Allman and one by Dickey Betts, who now was also the only lead guitarist left. Side 2 and 4 are the Mountain Jam, a 45-minute jam that saw the original incarnation of the band, with Duane and Dickey trading licks all the way, one last time.
Sad commentary. But they were Surely the Best . I wish I'd got off my behind years earlier and listened to them. Better late than never has never been truer to me.
@@BigCarmine The Fillmore East archives shows that Johnny Winter and Elvin Bishop were also on the bill for the March 11-13 shows. However, Wikipedia indicates the 3/12 & 3/13 shows were recorded. Additionally, there were also two performances per night. On one of the numerous releases of the album, Elvin Bishop sings Drunken Hearted Boy to close the final show that ended 6:00 AM. It's hard to piece together all the information, but regardless, there's no doubt in my my mind that At the Fillmore East is the finest live album ever released that inevitably propelled the Allman Brothers Band to their rightful place in rock history. It's truly unfortunate that Duane would die 7 months later riding his harley, and then Berry also dying in another tragic motorcycle wreck a year later after Duane. I just can't imagine the music that would have been created by the ABB, had they lived longer...
@@ronfriedman8740 Thank you. I was not sure what year this was and I was curios as to weather "Nick Danger and the Heat" had been the opener for this concert. Thanks again.
correction: the infamous fillmore concert was recorded march 12th and 13th 0f 71' duane died oct.29th 71' the allman bros. were the last act to ever take the stage at the fillmore in june 71'! HE APPEARED LIVE NUMEROUS TIMES AFTER THAT!!!! get your facts straight there ace!
The second guitarist is Dicky Betts. He is legendary in Southern Rock. He and Duane (Skydog) were the standard for every 2 guitar rock band that followed.
Dicky Betts, to my mind, really provided the "it" factor. He provided some great guitar licks. He really stirred the creative juices for both brothers I believe.
The key to listening to Fillmore East, if you want to know who is who in the recording: Dickey is in the right channel, Duane is the left. Kind of like the way they lined up on stage. Likewise, Butch is in the right channel, Jaimoe the left. Skydog Lives.
@@HRConsultant_Jeff I love Dickey Betts, he had a different sound being a banjo player before a guitarist. More happy majors lol. He didn't get the credit Duane was getting and there is nothing to take away from him, he was that damn good. But to those who say Dickey was just rhythm? play them "Southbound" there are other great leads he has done, that one hits you in the face though. it makes me smile.
Oh...I forgot, "Skydog"! So glad you mentioned it. Brings back memories of good stuff, wine and Eating' A Peach! Dicky Betts sometimes get lost in the legend...he was the touchstone that kept the magic going...no one like the AB... Peace JC✌
I've seen them live more than any other band in my life... I only regret that I never got to see them with Dickey (or Duane, for that matter). But it was an honor and a privilege to be able to see Gregg sing and play live. Some of these guys won't come around again.
This IS southern rock with a kick of blues n whatever else Gregg threw in he was a legend then n still now!! RIP Gregg n Duane yawl r sorely missed.And believe this man can take u to church any day of the week.
My uncle Chank was Greg best friend up to the day he died and I had the pleasure to go to his last show here in Macon. Chank Middleton passed recently but saw Greg as a real brother! He may have been a white southerner but Greg and Duane had soul music infused with bluegrass. Irony of it was Chank was a huge Bob Marley fan lol #longlivetheAllmanbrothers
Like the other reply you got, I read about Chank in an ABB book...I can only imagine the stories you heard as a kid & young adult. Some day you'll have backstage passes for every concert in rock n roll heaven...you'll hear me yelling from the cheap seats...
Your are so right. Sad day when Chank died. He was a loyal, true friend. My cuz was Red Dog, so I had heard of Chank.💕💕 The road goes on forever Friend!
I’m glad y’all got to meet The Allman Brothers Band. They put on the most amazing live show I’ve ever seen, with no tricks, just musicianship. They had a connection that was nearly telepathic. Two of these originals are still alive: Dickey Betts and Jaimoe the drummer. I know it’s long, but you should do “Whipping Post” from the Fillmore East. It’s definitive. There’s also Dickey Betts’ “In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed”, Gregg Allman’s “Dreams”, and a great version of “Stormy Monday”. Thanks.
The Fillmore East was in New York, the Fillmore West was in Frisco. The Allman Brothers were a blues band who sometimes played up tempo songs that blended rock into them, thus inventing what became "southern rock".
@@rickstevens1479, gonna correct you. Jacksonville, Fl. Same town as Lynyrd Skynrd. (Tom Petty was Gainsville.) However, the ABB called Macon, GA home and Berry, Duane and Gregg are all buried next to each other there.
That is swing, funk, jazz, blues, rock. They've got a lot of different elements in their music. That beat is a swing beat, the slide blues, the bass funk, and it all rocks and swings. Amazing, amazing band, especially live. Pure genius.
As one who saw them in action in 71, 72 through tragic deaths of Duane then Barry, young generation's discovery of the band anew makes me very happy! It certainly is a great gain for this generation to appreciate a true gem unlike anything nowadays.
Same here! Saw them play for free in a park about a week before their first album came out and they hit it big. Been a fan ever since. I'm so happy to see younger people catching on to great music!
Agreed Nick❗ The vocals on WHIPPING POST is epic. Especially the very ending , when he sounds like he is in so much pain. Stupendous performance. So happy these 2 REACTORS get it.
At 71, I got to enjoy them for 5 de ades, true pioneers with their own sound. It's way cool to see younger cats discovering the ABB and finding a great era for us old schoolers.
I’ve heard this story before but just Googled to find this: Duane Allman wanted two drummers from the moment he started putting together what became the Allman Brothers Band. “I asked Duane why he wanted two drummers and he said, 'because James Brown has two,'” recalls Jaimoe.
Not only did the Grateful Dead have two drummers, but Duane got the idea for Mountain Jam from a passage Garcia played during his solo on “Alligator”, from their Anthem Of The Sun album, ‘67, where Jerry quotes the Donovan song in mid-flight : )
Thankful for all the music I was exposed to during my formative years, some of it just grabs hold of you and doesn't let go. This is one of those bands. RIP Duane and Gregg
Not only are there two drummers, but one thing they are well known for is playing dual synchronized lead guitars. You can hear it really well in Melissa, Jessica, and Blue Sky, for example.
Founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, Gregory LeNoir "Gregg" Allman, who with his Hammond B-3 organ, and soft but growling voice helped create a sound that was simultaneously jazz, rock, blues, and parts San Francisco jam band, and that became the defining tone of Southern rock music,
Gregg was vocal, and Played the Hammond B 3 ORGAN. Two drummers, two lead guitars, epic bass and ALL were masters. No auto tune, no engineering magic, just straight up band playing with so much talent, love, skill and dedication. And they always gave credit to past blues masters or who ever influenced them. But they mixed it up and had their own sound, genre.✌🏼✌🏼💕💕
Butch and Jaimoe ALWAYS practiced together. That's why their differing styles meshed so well. They knew how to complement each other without stepping on toes.
I just want you to know that you both have quickly become my favorite music reactors; you get deep into the music; you “hear” the instruments, the arrangements, the lyrics; you react to a variety of genres and eras, your commentary is serious and insightful, you care to do research once a group/performer gets your interest, and I was not surprised to hear in one of your videos that you have an engineering studio. Add to that, your smiles ❤ Bravo!!!
Agreed Jacqueline ❗ I just found these 2 REACTORS recently & they're my new favorites. They are spot on. Great taste & commentary. I could watch Music Reaction Videos for hours if there were more like these 2 gems.What fun to re live this ERA of Rock🎵🎵🎵
I bought this double album back in 1971 when it came out. I remember having friends over and CRANKING IT UP. It was the first band, that I recall, to have TWO DRUMMERS and TWO LEAD GUITARISTS. This band had it all. Gregg Allmans vocals were simply great.
The Grateful Dead were the first rock band to have 2 drummers, though it was James Brown’s band that was the first to bring 2 drummers to the R&B/Funk world. Thanks for playing this!❤
Just an fyi - Greg Allman was touring and recording right up until his death of liver cancer in 2017. His final album, released shortly after his death is a masterpiece.
The ABB was final act to close the Legendary Filmore Easr on NYC. Thank you Bill Graham for you vision in helping the ABB reach the successes they had.
I'm a huge fan of the Allman Brothers band and I'm so happy you both enjoy their music. Just in case you're interested this band continues to this day, with some of the members being related to the founding members. Here's a live performance of them singing one of the original band's popular songs "The Allman Betts Band - Midnight Rider (Allman Brothers Band Cover)" and the second lead guitarist was Dickey Betts he's a guitar G.O.A.T also. And this is a live performance "Allman Brothers Band - Come On In My Kitchen" the Rhythm & Blues duo Delaney and Bonnie recorded the song in an acoustic medley with Duane Allman on Dobro, released on their 1971 album "Motel Shot" RIP: Duane, Gregg, Berry, and Butch 🔥💔🙏 U R Missed another tragic fact is that on Nov. 11, 1972 barely over a year after Duane Allman's death, Berry Oakley (bassist) is killed in a motorcycle accident only a few blocks from where Duane Allman's fatal motorcycle accident occurred a year earlier. This band is from Georgia...this is truly southern rock at it's best. Wonderful reaction guys thanks so much for sharing 🎶💖🎸🎸
Duane died at 24. I think Fillmore he was 22 . Greg was 19. 20. They were country kids who grew up with gospel, country, bluegrass. Duane was playing with the stars at 17. Just think is They could have 3 or for more years with Duane.
First saw ABB in June 1974 at Georgia Jam and am closing in on 68. Still love ABB. Another example of Gregg's singing talents can be found in him singing Slip Away. Some blue eyed soul right there !
I was lucky to see him in Hollywood get this award before he passed. Gregg Allman received the Living Legend award at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour ceremony on Tuesday, November 4, 2014 at the Avalon in Hollywood. Previous recipients of the award include Black Sabbath, Jeff Beck, Lemmy, Jimmy Page and Alice Cooper.
I read Greg's autobiography. There was a black man in his town which helped him learn to play guitar and sing. I don't know when he learned to play the organ. But he plays guitar also.
You guys are so fun to watch learn about our “old” music. Being 14 in 1975 was the greatest time on Earth for a teenager with all the music coming out in this era and even a few years before! I wouldn’t want to have been born in any other time frame, at least music wise!
@@stephenbloom8107 off the top of my head, I’d say Robert Johnson, Albert King, BB king, Freddie King, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, but there are more. The point is, it wasn’t two guys.
Absolutely THE most famous Coricidin bottle ever to make music on a guitar players' finger!!! And the groove played by Dickey and the rest of the band...awesome!
This is a great version of a blues song recorded by several blues artists in the 60's, Elmore James & Sonny Boy Williamson. The Allmans really expanded the sound of the original.
Best live band ever. Their concerts were incredible. At one in Atlanta the crowd called them back for 5 encores. The cops took the stage, called for house lights to be turned on and threatened to arrest the band if we didn't leave.
So, right before the pandemic hit, l was fortunate enough to see the Betts and Allman Brothers band which is the offspring of the original band and let me tell you, l felt like l was watching the original Allman Brothers band and l've seen them a few times back in the days.They were sooo good that l would definitely go see them again, l'm having a blast watching you guys, keep it going ✌️🥰
Great, great performance. For this suburban kid in Michigan, what set the Allman Brothers apart was their blues foundation, along with their power and musicianship. You know what other band's extended percussion section is part of their sound? Little Feat. Thanks again, peace!
Guys This is a killer album. Check out In Memory of Elizabeth Read, and Stormy Monday. One of the only road bands. To play that tight live. And I warned you both about Dickie & Dwayne. Arguably the best guitar duo in all of Rock. And I believe their also the first great band to use 2 drummers ❤
Great Southern rockers. I live in NYC and they play the Beacon Theater every year to a PACKRD house. That's Duane Allman (RIP). Listen to his slide guitar on "Blue Sky". "Midnight Rider"..... unreal.
The Holy Trio of Southern Rock is Lynard Skynard, Little Feat, & The Allman Bros. Band. Skynard leans into the Metal and Blues sound. Little feat is Funk and Country Phychadelic Rock & The Allmans are heavy into the Blues side 💙 side of Rock with a lot of open Phychadelic jams.
Oh my goodness! One of my all-time favorite concert performances to watch. And the lyrics are just everything! Thanks for sharing it. Love your reaction. 👌😆😍❤️🎶✨🎶✨🎶✨
I understand your love for Gregg Allman. His voice is legendary. Check out his Gregg Allman Tour Live at Carnegie Hall, "Turn On Your Lovelight." I was so privileged to have been at Wesleyan College in Macon, GA for the kickoff on that tour. Duane called him "the blue-singingest white boy in the world."
I always thought that the ABB had a little jazz vibe undercurrent to their sound...so improvisational...someone said, telepathic...I think that's a great way to describe the magic brew they had...so glad y'all play this✌
The ABB are special, having 2 of the greatest guitarists trading licks with Greag on keyboards & vocals and that smokin’ rhythm section. The Grateful Dead, the other of the 2 best jam bands, also employed 2 drummers beginning in 1967. You really should listen to the entire Love at Fillmore East LP, then Europe ‘72 by the Grateful Dead. Love your reactions. ✌️❤️🎶

Gentlemen, the entire Live Fillmore East album is worth a listen. Many consider it to be the greatest live album ever.
Plus the live stuff on Eat a Peach is from the same show
🦆 Tell me why when the phone rings, baby
You're up and across the floor?
Please, don't keep me wonderin' no longer, oh
You should have said, Ladies and Gentleman… and YES LATF EAST best live album EVER
I think there are actually 5 in the running: Allmans at the Fillmore, Skynyrd's One More from the Road, The Who's Live at Leeds, Derek and the Dominoes In Concert, and CSNY's Four WAY Street.

I'm 75 and they are still the greatest....
The Allman Brothers are the defining group for Southern Rock.
I’m 82 & first heard The Allman Brothers in 1969. I have loved them ever since. I have never got too old to appreciate how great they are.
I've seen them live more than any other band in my life... I only regret that I never got to see them with Dickey (or Duane, for that matter). But it was an honor and a privilege to be able to see Gregg sing and play live. Some of these guys won't come around again.

A rock and roll band playing blues in the jazz vernacular. Greatest live album ever recorded.
Allman Brothers are the Kings of Southern Rock!!
My uncle Chank was Greg best friend up to the day he died and I had the pleasure to go to his last show here in Macon. Chank Middleton passed recently but saw Greg as a real brother! He may have been a white southerner but Greg and Duane had soul music infused with bluegrass. Irony of it was Chank was a huge Bob Marley fan lol #longlivetheAllmanbrothers

Gregg was so amazing even as a solo act when he did the song I’m No Angel. That is an amazing tune showing off Gregg’s vocals!
His solo LP "Laid Back" is awesome too.
He was just Kid here too! Like around 21 years old! With the voice of a old Blues Man!
That is a great song! One of my fav...✌
The Fillmore East was in New York, the Fillmore West was in Frisco. The Allman Brothers were a blues band who sometimes played up tempo songs that blended rock into them, thus inventing what became "southern rock".
The Allman Brothers ARE SOUTHERN ROCK. They single handedly created the genre. RIP to all the members, with love from Macon GA (their hometown).
They were from Gainesville, Fl... then relocated to Macon....😮
@@rickstevens1479, gonna correct you. Jacksonville, Fl. Same town as Lynyrd Skynrd. (Tom Petty was Gainsville.) However, the ABB called Macon, GA home and Berry, Duane and Gregg are all buried next to each other there.
Southern Comfort 🌻
That is swing, funk, jazz, blues, rock. They've got a lot of different elements in their music. That beat is a swing beat, the slide blues, the bass funk, and it all rocks and swings. Amazing, amazing band, especially live. Pure genius.
Rest in Peace Gregg Allman thank you for all the music you and your band gave us through the years
Whatever Genre they are… Brilliant musicians WOW
One of the best live bands of my generation!!!

I think you both will be blown away by Greg’s voice on their song “ Whipping Post.” His emotion will rattle your core.
I concur.
Agreed Nick❗ The vocals on WHIPPING POST is epic. Especially the very ending , when he sounds like he is in so much pain. Stupendous performance. So happy these 2 REACTORS get it.
At 71, I got to enjoy them for 5 de ades, true pioneers with their own sound. It's way cool to see younger cats discovering the ABB and finding a great era for us old schoolers.

Nice one
Just an added note - the Grateful Dead also had two drummers early on, but most likely after JB.
I was gonna add The Grateful Dead had two drummers. But you beat me to it. 😅
That's a great story! Never knew that...glad you shared that lil' tidbit✌✌
Not only did the Grateful Dead have two drummers, but Duane got the idea for Mountain Jam from a passage Garcia played during his solo on “Alligator”, from their Anthem Of The Sun album, ‘67, where Jerry quotes the Donovan song in mid-flight : )

Great music played by great musicians, and it’s the blues. Doesn’t get any better!
Blues, Rock, Folk, Jazz, Country, Gospel, R&B, Bluegrass, Western Swing...stir them all together and you've got Southern Rock...
Founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, Gregory LeNoir "Gregg" Allman, who with his Hammond B-3 organ, and soft but growling voice helped create a sound that was simultaneously jazz, rock, blues, and parts San Francisco jam band, and that became the defining tone of Southern rock music,
The guitarist with the brown hair is Dickie Betts, the guitarist with the blonde hair is Duane Allman., Duane plays the slide.
Fillmore East has been my road trip companion for over 30 yrs. If I'm driving alone I'm lost in The Allman Brothers Band. ❤
Gregg was vocal, and Played the Hammond B 3 ORGAN. Two drummers, two lead guitars, epic bass and ALL were masters. No auto tune, no engineering magic, just straight up band playing with so much talent, love, skill and dedication. And they always gave credit to past blues masters or who ever influenced them. But they mixed it up and had their own sound, genre.✌🏼✌🏼💕💕
Outstanding! So much talent and they were in their early 20s! Unreal!
Allman Brothers are an amazing talented band!
This song still gives me the chills
Butch and Jaimoe ALWAYS practiced together. That's why their differing styles meshed so well. They knew how to complement each other without stepping on toes.
I always enjoy your musician's take on these good jams. Duanne and Hendrix are my two favorite guitarists.
Duane Allman to me was the best slide guitarist. So tragic that he died so young. This is my favorite Allman Brothers song.
Derek Trucks does him proud as the best of his generation now.
Mine too! Chills
Duane was the best, but have a listen to Derek Trucks. Sublime.
Fillmore East is in NYC. This is my favorite song off this phenomenal album!!! THANK YOU!
It WAS in NYC, it is no more.
I just want you to know that you both have quickly become my favorite music reactors; you get deep into the music; you “hear” the instruments, the arrangements, the lyrics; you react to a variety of genres and eras, your commentary is serious and insightful, you care to do research once a group/performer gets your interest, and I was not surprised to hear in one of your videos that you have an engineering studio.

This is one of the greatest songs ever! The opening & the entire beat is absolutely perfect!
I bought this double album back in 1971 when it came out. I remember having friends over and CRANKING IT UP. It was the first band, that I recall, to have TWO DRUMMERS and TWO LEAD GUITARISTS. This band had it all. Gregg Allmans vocals were simply great.
One Way Out wasn’t on the Fillmore East album, they stuck it on the Eat a Peach album.
I was lucky enough to have seen them 3 times in the 90's in Birmingham Alabama and the boys could freaking rock
The Grateful Dead were the first rock band to have 2 drummers, though it was James Brown’s band that was the first to bring 2 drummers to the R&B/Funk world. Thanks for playing this!❤
Just an fyi - Greg Allman was touring and recording right up until his death of liver cancer in 2017. His final album, released shortly after his death is a masterpiece.
I was at his funeral
Back then, it was all about Duane. Gregg was almost an afterthought for most fans. I'm so happy y'all recognize his talents.
Cher sure noticed Gregg's talent...🤓
Gregg was never an afterthought; the man wrote the songs, played keyboard and sang. I love his singing COME AND GO BLUES playing acoustic in 1981.
The Allman brothers are the greatest southern rock band of all time, no contest!!
Greatest band period
Southern Rock is basically a blues rock, country blend. So when some people say it's blues rock and others say southern rock, they're both right.
You guys are enjoyable to watch. I was lucky enough to see these guys in concert over a dozen times and they were something special.
The Blues had a baby and they called it rock n roll.
The "Other Guy " is Dickie Betts...awesome guitrarist
The best live album of all time! Brothers - Fillmore East. Pure Music Pleasure.
The ABB was final act to close the Legendary Filmore Easr on NYC. Thank you Bill Graham for you vision in helping the ABB reach the successes they had.
Allman brothers greatest jam band ever

Ain't Wasting Time No More
Worried Down With The Blues ✌🤘♥️
I'm a huge fan of the Allman Brothers band and I'm so happy you both enjoy their music.

another tragic fact is that on Nov. 11, 1972 barely over a year after Duane Allman's death, Berry Oakley (bassist) is killed in a motorcycle accident only a few blocks from where Duane Allman's fatal motorcycle accident occurred a year earlier. This band is from Georgia...this is truly southern rock at it's best. Wonderful reaction guys thanks so much for sharing
🎶💖🎸🎸
They invented the Southern Rock genre when Duane Allman played with Wilson Pickett at Muscle Schoals.
Most underrated band in history. So damn good!!
Duane died at 24. I think Fillmore he was 22 . Greg was 19. 20. They were country kids who grew up with gospel, country, bluegrass. Duane was playing with the stars at 17. Just think is They could have 3 or for more years with Duane.
First saw ABB in June 1974 at Georgia Jam and am closing in on 68. Still love ABB. Another example of Gregg's singing talents can be found in him singing Slip Away. Some blue eyed soul right there !
I was lucky to see him in Hollywood get this award before he passed. Gregg Allman received the Living Legend award at the Classic Rock Roll Of Honour ceremony on Tuesday, November 4, 2014 at the Avalon in Hollywood. Previous recipients of the award include Black Sabbath, Jeff Beck, Lemmy, Jimmy Page and Alice Cooper.
Our iconic Southern rock. Love this band. ❤
I read Greg's autobiography. There was a black man in his town which helped him learn to play guitar and sing. I don't know when he learned to play the organ. But he plays guitar also.
You guys are so fun to watch learn about our “old” music. Being 14 in 1975 was the greatest time on Earth for a teenager with all the music coming out in this era and even a few years before! I wouldn’t want to have been born in any other time frame, at least music wise!
The Allman Brothers are their own genre. You say "Allman Brothers" you are saying GREAT!!
All man Bros were a "genre" of their own❤❤❤❤
🙏RIP GREG & DUANE🙏❤❤❤❤
You nailed it brother!
And Berry and Butch
The song One Way Out was originally done by Sonny Boy Williamson, a famous blues man from years back. So this is a cover of Sonny’s song.
We can thank Muddy Waters,Led belly and all the black blues singers for spawning music such as this.
@psalm2twelve it’s annoying 😂
What’s annoying is that he thinks Muddy Waters and Leadbelly invented the blues.
Read up on who influenced The Beatles, Stones, Clapton and the rest of 60’s and 70,s rock bands, and you’ll see I’m correct
@@stephenbloom8107 off the top of my head, I’d say Robert Johnson, Albert King, BB king, Freddie King, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, but there are more. The point is, it wasn’t two guys.
@@stephenbloom8107 and when it comes to the Allman Brothers how can you leave Taj Mahal out as an influence?
Rest in peace Gregg Allman and Dwayne Allman
Looked this up for another taste. RIP to the great Dickey Betts who passed away today. Hope all the brothers are jamming in heaven now. 😢
If you take blues, rock and roll, jazz, gospel and country, you put them together, you get southern rock.
Y’all quickly becoming my favorite reactors.
Absolutely THE most famous Coricidin bottle ever to make music on a guitar players' finger!!! And the groove played by Dickey and the rest of the band...awesome!
This is a great version of a blues song recorded by several blues artists in the 60's, Elmore James & Sonny Boy Williamson. The Allmans really expanded the sound of the original.
boz scaggs 'Loan me a dime' with duane allman on guitar will blow your mind
Man that first solo is by Dickey Betts. He is a bad man
Best live band ever. Their concerts were incredible. At one in Atlanta the crowd called them back for 5 encores. The cops took the stage, called for house lights to be turned on and threatened to arrest the band if we didn't leave.
So, right before the pandemic hit, l was fortunate enough to see the Betts and Allman Brothers band which is the offspring of the original band and let me tell you, l felt like l was watching the original Allman Brothers band and l've seen them a few times back in the days.They were sooo good that l would definitely go see them again, l'm having a blast watching you guys, keep it going ✌️🥰
The best southern boogie band ever. Duane's slide guitar is torch'n it.
Great, great performance. For this suburban kid in Michigan, what set the Allman Brothers apart was their blues foundation, along with their power and musicianship.
You know what other band's extended percussion section is part of their sound? Little Feat. Thanks again, peace!
Guys This is a killer album. Check out In Memory of Elizabeth Read, and Stormy Monday. One of the only road bands. To play that tight live. And I warned you both about Dickie & Dwayne. Arguably the best guitar duo in all of Rock. And I believe their also the first great band to use 2 drummers ❤
RIP Dickey Betts... Gone but never forgotten
Greg Allman once said “Southern rock is like saying rock rock. Rock-n-roll was born in the south.”
The Fillmore East was in NYC.
Just want to say ... keep it up. Great selections. Gregg Allman, All World
Great Southern rockers. I live in NYC and they play the Beacon Theater every year to a PACKRD house.
That's Duane Allman (RIP). Listen to his slide guitar on "Blue Sky".
"Midnight Rider"..... unreal.
Rocking the blues...thanks for sharing guys..
The Holy Trio of Southern Rock is Lynard Skynard, Little Feat, & The Allman Bros. Band.
Skynard leans into the Metal and Blues sound.
Little feat is Funk and Country Phychadelic Rock & The Allmans are heavy into the Blues side 💙 side of Rock with a lot of open Phychadelic jams.
These shows are so great for those of us that were there and to see the fresh life pumped into the music...Thank you Airplay Beats.
Oh my goodness! One of my all-time favorite concert performances to watch. And the lyrics are just everything! Thanks for sharing it. Love your reaction. 👌😆😍❤️🎶✨🎶✨🎶✨
Duane Allman started as a session musician playing guitar for Stax records with Otis Redding and Wilson Picket
Cheers neighbors. San Jose here. LOVE this song and this performance video!
Duane and the band took rock, blues, soul, country, jazz and others, mixed it all up in a delicious stew, and created Southern rock!
I understand your love for Gregg Allman. His voice is legendary. Check out his Gregg Allman Tour Live at Carnegie Hall, "Turn On Your Lovelight." I was so privileged to have been at Wesleyan College in Macon, GA for the kickoff on that tour. Duane called him "the blue-singingest white boy in the world."
I always thought that the ABB had a little jazz vibe undercurrent to their sound...so improvisational...someone said, telepathic...I think that's a great way to describe the magic brew they had...so glad y'all play this✌
Man, when it comes to music we were so lucky to grow up on the 60's and 70'.
The ABB are special, having 2 of the greatest guitarists trading licks with Greag on keyboards & vocals and that smokin’ rhythm section. The Grateful Dead, the other of the 2 best jam bands, also employed 2 drummers beginning in 1967. You really should listen to the entire Love at Fillmore East LP, then Europe ‘72 by the Grateful Dead. Love your reactions. ✌️❤️🎶
Guys this is great driving music going down the highway. Could listen to this all day.
Gold, just pure solid gold.
