The Allman Brothers Band - One Way Out (Live @ Fillmore East) | REACTION

[@frankcirillo4246]

Gentlemen, the entire Live Fillmore East album is worth a listen. Many consider it to be the greatest live album ever.

[@billschabot7188]

Plus the live stuff on Eat a Peach is from the same show

[@davidcohen7106]

🦆 Tell me why when the phone rings, baby You're up and across the floor? Please, don't keep me wonderin' no longer, oh

[@cyndeelancaster455]

You should have said, Ladies and Gentleman… and YES LATF EAST best live album EVER

[@WhizzingFish12]

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.

[@tcb190]

I totally agree 👍

[@LBVeil4215]

Southern Comfort 🌻

[@a.bevdfray6625]

Duane was only 23 years old and Gregg was only 22 years old here. Amazing.

[@John_Chu]

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.

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

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.

[@davidhunter801]

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.

[@michaelheller8841]

@@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.

[@lisaharrod8386]

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✌

Dickey kicked azz! RIP shredder

[@gs8191]

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.

[@carriecole1025]

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]

Do you know who the opening band was at that concert? I don't. That's why I am asking.

[@ronfriedman8740]

@@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...

[@BigCarmine]

@@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.

[@casedismissed8581]

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!

[@bryansimmons4550]

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.

[@vlh0316]

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.

[@american_cosmic]

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.

[@joemiller6622]

The Allman Brothers are the defining group for Southern Rock.

[@donnacsrpenter7226]

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.

[@bobdugan4875]

I'm 75 and they are still the greatest....

[@adirishrose79]

Allman Brothers are the Kings of Southern Rock!!

[@LouisLarsen-vp8oc]

They were known as southern rock deep south Georgia style 😮😂😂🎉

[@Joe-d3t1t]

Simply THE GREATEST. So damn good!!

[@mattreynolds612]

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.

[@lathedauphinot6820]

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.

[@philcrowley1344]

Man that first solo is by Dickey Betts. He is a bad man

[@kievmiddeton2656]

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

[@sylviafarese8837]

My condolences to you. I remember reading all about Chank and Gregg.

[@andychisarick6879]

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...

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

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!

[@tyronesharp9205]

I've read about all those guys. Peace

[@blitztim6416]

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.

[@garhumpston5495]

Great music played by great musicians, and it’s the blues. Doesn’t get any better!

[@paulgdewhurst9540]

A rock and roll band playing blues in the jazz vernacular. Greatest live album ever recorded.

[@ronniel879]

Rest in Peace Gregg Allman thank you for all the music you and your band gave us through the years

[@RandyGabbert]

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".

[@lindaulloa4786]

Allman Brothers are an amazing talented band!

[@proudarmymom8657]

This album, Allman Brothers, live at Fillmore East is probably one of thee best live albums ever! These guys are considered Southern Rock!

[@joelliebler5690]

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!

[@willieboy3011]

His solo LP "Laid Back" is awesome too.

[@Frankincensedjb123]

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.

[@StevenMichals0812]

Duane Allman started as a session musician playing guitar for Stax records with Otis Redding and Wilson Picket

[@babylonsister118]

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.

[@nickcolletta9140]

I think you both will be blown away by Greg’s voice on their song “ Whipping Post.” His emotion will rattle your core.

[@randyboyles]

I concur.

[@elisaabolafia9542]

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.

[@sbaxsbax3810]

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.

[@Irockthere4]

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.

[@youngkim4582]

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.

[@marionnadeau8457]

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!

[@anthonyiannozzi6777]

The best live album of all time! Brothers - Fillmore East. Pure Music Pleasure.

[@a.bevdfray6625]

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.

[@jimmoore8951]

Nice one

[@mikefannon6994]

Just an added note - the Grateful Dead also had two drummers early on, but most likely after JB.

[@DreDogg_100]

I was gonna add The Grateful Dead had two drummers. But you beat me to it. 😅

[@jazzzman8050]

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 : )

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.

[@alpetrocelli4465]

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. ✌️❤️🎶

[@suzannesellers7383]

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.

[@eugenestandingbear6516]

Greg plays a Hammond B-3 . Rick Wakeman, Keith Emerson , Steve Winwood , they all loved the sound especially piped through ' Leslie ' spinning speakers. A winning combo . Thanks for sharing 😌👍🌄

[@willieboy3011]

I always enjoy your musician's take on these good jams. Duanne and Hendrix are my two favorite guitarists.

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

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.✌🏼✌🏼💕💕

[@Starriddin]

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!

[@AlanMuldawer]

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,

Duane Allman (Guitar and Slide Guitar) was a producer and session musician in Muscle Schoals, AL before the 2nd attempt at an Allman Bros. Band. Duane famously worked with Aretha Franklin and Percy Sledge. When Duane and Greg Allman and the band decided to try again is when they had success. The entire band are Session class musicians. They can (and do) play anything from Rock, to Blues, to Country, to Gospel, to Funk, to Jazz. This was an interacial, long-haired, hippie band from Jacksonville, FL in 1970 who played Instrumental Jazz live at a concert ("In Memory of Elizabeth Reed") and it freakin' sold Platinum level records.
