They were all very young virtuosos. That original lineup was the greatest American band ever. And yes, there were two drummers.

[@giuseppemaggio5894]

Allman Brothers live at Fillmore East is considered to be one of the best live albums EVER!

[@Rick-or2kq]

Been listening to this for 50 years and it never get old, just a masterpiece. Thankyou Dickey Betts, RIP.

[@bradsense7431]

The song that made me an Allman Brothers fan for life. Yes I hear jazz elements mixed into rock,blues and even Latin vibe I hear in this song.

[@billspencer9430]

Yes. Two drummers.

[@matthewoconnor5838]

Greatest live band

[@jeffputnam3582]

Musically, that is top of the mountain stuff! Everyone in the Allman Brothers carries their weight and then some. Guitarist Dickie Betts wrote this and he has acknowledged jazz influence from Miles Davis to Django Reinhardt. Glad you got to hear it! An all-time favorite of mine that has held up spectacularly since I first heard it when it was released.

[@letsgomets002]

I was at that concert ....yes Im old....lol

[@MJ-yp3hr]

One one the best rabbit holes to jump in

[@bluesrock1]

There are two drummers, along with the two lead guitars.

[@davidhattman7649]

Yes there is a Jazz component to this song The Group was influenced by Miles Davis among other Jazz greats. You can hear it in this song.

[@Perk724]

Yes, 2 drummers. The Allman Brothers were Southern Rock, but heavily jazz-influenced, especially lead guitarist Duane, who sadly died in a motorcycle accident just a short time after this concert recording. You should listen more carefully to his solo after his brother Gregg's organ solo and not get distracted by the drumming. I also think their great bassist at that time, Berry Oakley, deserves more attention. Tragically, he too died on a motorcycle a year later, just 3 blocks from where Duane was killed.

[@rameshnyberg2257]

According to Gregg Allman, they used to jam/practice at the Rose Hill cemetery with acoustic guitars, late at night. They came up with this tune, and when Dickey Betts looked down, the first grave he saw had a headstone that said "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed"

[@JamesCole-ep4df]

Yes, two drummers one drummer, Butch trucks was a rock drummer and the black dude is Jaimo and he’s a jazz drummer and they worked so well together the whole album … 2/3 of their next album called …Eat a Peach is recorded like this album is live at the Fillmore East saw them 15 times over the years my favorite band ever and this was my favorite song ever welcome to the best rabbit hole you could ever jump into dig deep with these guys you won’t regret it

[@sjd5750]

My all-time favorite track, on any album, anywhere on planet earth..It is pure perfection! I saw them a year later when I was 15, after Duane's death..You would think that would have finished them. It didn't. They came out with something to prove. That they weren't going anywhere, and proceeded to blow the roof off the place, for 3 1/2 hrs..Berry Oakley was still with us, at the time. He was a beast of a bass player!..Had to pick my jaw up off the floor when all was said and done! Phenomenal!

[@gleffersjr6855]

Great reaction, Thank you! Glad you picked up on the two drummers and the jazz influences. Well done!

[@JamesCole-ep4df]

You just listen to the greatest band ever

[@rg807]

Finally! Did i tell you? What a masterpiece.

[@AdullFiddler-ez7tm]

Yes, it is very jazz influenced. Amazing dynamics, the mark of masters. Dickey Betts (co-guitarist and the writer of this song) had been into some of the far out jazz, i.e. Rashaan Roland Kirk, Son Ra, and that ilk. bringing that to the group, and Duane could play bossa nova and some jazz--stirred into the stew of that remarkable rhythm section and Gregg's fine voice. "You Don't Love Me" is another legendary performance (same album) and a master class in dynamics and good taste. Thanks!

[@sjd5750]

Jaimoe, the one drummer, almost didn't except the job, because he was (Is. Only one still with us) a jazz drummer, and wanted to head to NY and just play in clubs in a small ensemble. Thankfully he didn't!..His playing had a huge impact on this, and many other ABB songs, over the years. He fit them like a glove, along with Butch..The whole band was like a well oiled machine when you saw them live. Absolutely the best live band ever!

[@RedPillMode]

Great music. Have to listen to more.

[@lisarainbow9703]

One of my favorite Allman Brothers songs. Used to play this in cover band I was in, and it was a blast! Another Allman Brothers song you may enoy is "Les Breres in A Minor".

[@salsonny]

Southern Rock band playing Jazz

[@lloydanderson1486]

Southern Rock

[@rocky8758]

Tied to the whipping post.

[@WGBader]

This is scientific evidence that telepathy exists. More seriously, the interplay among these musicians was phenomenal and has yet to be equaled in my opinion. Left to right on the album cover: Jaimoe (drummer in left channel); Duane Allman (second guitar solo); Gregg Allman (Hammond B-3 and vocals on other songs); Berry Oakley, standing (bass); Dickey Betts (first guitar solo); Butch Trucks (drummer in right channel). Duane Allman is considered to be one of the best, if not the best, slide guitarists ever. Here he is, twice: "Dreams" (August, 1969): kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWqlqmqQis6Ehck "Stand Back" (fall, 1971): kzbin.info/www/bejne/epXQZ2qmr9R1sLs Atlanta Pop Festival, July 3, 1970: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5_aaaKYap5sZ9k Enjoy!

[@skydogfan4671]

The Allman Brothers were a very versatile group. They played blues, R&B and incorporated both jazz and country into their songs. Really enjoyed your reaction. I think you might like their guitar playing in their more country sounding song called Blue Sky (studio version).

[@darikmatters8866]

Classic "Classical" / jazzy Southern Rock.. Does this make the Allman Bros Prog stars??

[@waltersobchak4079]

Dickeys said he preferred progressive rock music from the south to southern rock but while they may have some elements they're not a prog band.

[@darikmatters8866]

@@waltersobchak4079 In general, The Allman Bros are straight Southern Rock but this song is as Prog as any Yes or Pink Floyd song.

[@waltersobchak4079]

@@darikmatters8866 while I agree this is just about the most prog of any abb (along with some of dickeys other instumentals) I still wouldn't consider it prog, more jazz rock with prog elements. And while I agree this is as prog as any floyd song, I'd also say floyd isn't a prog band (more pycadelic blues rock). I guess I associate prog with classical influence and sensibilities and in that regard liz reed isnt close to a bunch of yes (in my opinion). they released closer to the edge a year after this recording, for example. Also elp released tarkus within a month or so of this recording... thats prog. All that being said abb is my fav band and at fillmore east (or storybook 71) would be my desert island album.

[@salsonny]

Two drummers

[@dougj7295]

2 drummers...

[@joejoetahoe]

They used two drummers.

[@patrickscutella836]

Love your reactions. I don’t believe you have reacted to the great guitarist Joe Pass. Try his songs , Ain’t Misbehavin’ or Cherokee. You have to see not just hear joe Pass.
